Still not as terrifying as the CG Animated one on Tubi:

Wow. Is this really the first Link mention?

I also want to add in support of the Wicked Witch of the West that her skin color is so distinct/notable that when the Sam Raimi Oz the Great and Powerful film came out 10 years ago, they had to actually use a separate distinct shade of green to avoid violating copyright.

Tough one, so I tried to focus on characters that are known specifically for being green.

Hulk
Wicked Witch of the West
Jolly Green Giant
Kermit the Frog

When You Wish Upon a Star
Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah
Under the Sea
A Whole New World

The Bride
The Terminator (if this counts)
Jaws
Boba Fett

do that here

Apple
Pumpkin
Chicken Pot
Pi

Grandmaster Flash
Beastie Boys
Public Enemy
Tupac

I didn't want to start an argument in the main topic, but do the EGM April Fools' pranks really count as urban legends? I'm not saying an urban legend can't have an identifiable source, but if 90% of us could tell you exactly where they came from, that doesn't seem particularly "folkloric." I can't speak for the others because they were from before my time, but did Sonic and Tails being in Melee ever really get that divorced from the source?

There's only 96 movies that qualify for this PLUS Sunrise which won alongside Wings at the first Academy Awards before they figured out what was going on and started only picking one winner. See below for full list. If you go off this list I'll just... not count it, so don't waste your votes!

Thank you for speaking the truth which the cowardly Academy still refuses to acknowledge for some reason.

Gone with the Wind
Casablanca
The Godfather
Schindler's List

All the Kings Men

I'm assuming "Drowning" counts as a jingle.

She wasn't on my list, but I appreciate the love for Betty Ford. I wish the 60 Minutes interview with her that infuriated the right was on Youtube.

No, it was actually Nancy Reagan's astrologer who made all the big decisions.

More serious answer: It's debatable at best to say RR was mentally incapable of carrying out his duties during his presidency, and even if he was there's no good evidence that Nancy was controlling everything.

Yeah, there's certainly a school of thought that there was a group of cabinet officers/advisors that were actually running things during Reagan's last several years, but Nancy wasn't one of them, and she never consulted her astrologer about policy decisions. Her astrology consultations were real, but they were used to determine what dates and times Reagan should leave/arrive for trips and the like, rather than for anything related to actual policy.

I voted 4 > 5, but I I kind of regretted not voting for 2 > 3 almost immediately. Still not entirely sure what my choice is, and I am sympathetic to the argument that the 2 > 3 transitions were more inevitable, and the evolution of the 2nd gen was disrupted by the crash.

I'm surprised people are sleeping on 6th to 7th so much. I wouldn't vote for it overall, but I would definitely put it above 5th to 6th. Things looked a lot better between 5 and 6, but the game design principles seem more or less the same to me; the way people think about games/game design changed so much in the late 2000's, that I'd have to give it the edge over a lot of other generational transitions.

Dolley Madison

Batman: Return of the Joker looks really impressive. Could almost pass for an SNES/Genesis game.

There's plenty of fictional cats and dogs (Lassie, Toto, Rin Tin Tin, White Fang, Snoopy, Garfield, Hobbes, etc.) I don't think it would default to memes or anything.

Disney Adults? Really?

This is not my personal opinion. Just who gets shit on the most.

Since the Bad Fanbases topic was cancelled, I'll post my prospective list here. To be clear, I am not saying that I personally think these are the worst; they are just the four that I think are the most infamous. I mean, it should in actuality be all sports fandoms, but I don't know enough about sports to know if there's any clear fandom there that rises above the rest.

Insane Clown Posse
Sonic
Twilight
Disney Adults

Ok, maybe the parents did deserve to get scammed if they still went after seeing this pic on the web site for the event:

"Cartchy tuns, exarserdray lollipops, a pasadise of sweet teats."

This is hilarious. I saw some pics of this the other day, but had no clue about the AI angle. TMZ has a bunch of pics too: https://amp.tmz.com/2024/02/27/wonka-experience-pop-up-tour-glasgow-uk-parents-refund-outrage/

*Not sure how to interpret the prompt, but if it refers to important/notable characters just below the Noble Nine, Magus needs to be here, regardless of how accurate our views of him were.

Why can't Board 8 give Mommie Dearest the RESPECT that it is entitled to? Why can't you treat it like it'd be treated by any STRANGER on the street?

I teeded you all up and no one even took the shot. smdh.

Tina, bring me the axe!

Is the Chalamet thing some in-joke, or did he say "ya go my ____" in public at some point?
