Yeah, tell me about it. I don't know how many goddamn times I got Lucy on one Pokemon that soon begins raping all three that I sprang on her. I should've taught them Earthquake or actually make use of berries as hold items, but I was 13 and a casual gamer as always.

I'm tired of attempting to earn BP for the prizes there. (<--long time since I gave up) It's exhausting at the start...and starting a streak is hard.

The only other place I got close to fighting the brain was in the Dome, and I always either got bored with it and canned the streak or lost before I could suffice. It'll be well over 5 years since I've stepped there for anything other than cloning by next year, really.

Akira is awesome. The manga's better than the movie, however.

I've seen about 2 or 3 pages of the manga while I was randomly flipping thru books at the library a year ago or so. Which is the extent of my knowledge of the manga.

Unfortunately.

But if it's better than the movie, that's impressive.

Yeah, while the movie is great and all, you can't exactly go about expecting to live up to a series consisting of 4 phonebook-sized volumes in a 2-hour feature, really. There are exceptions, but generally the byproducts of condensing serialized comics into feature length films don't go and whoop the original's asses.

This is true; 9 times out of 10 the book is better than the movie. Usually because it has more time to fully flesh out the story and characters.

Great example: 101 Dalmatians. Loved the movie, loved the book. As you can see, the italics indicates the significance.

Probably. For some reason, the mass media wants everyone to forget that Disney's glorious past ever existed... Then again, maybe I'm just bitter.

I love older Disney movies. Some of them are great/my personal favorite.
Though it has sadly been a while since I watched one.

...do they have anything going to be shown in the near future? Maybe... just maybe... I might go out and watch a Disney movie or something, if I have the time to do so.

On another note, I heard someone singing close to my home. A lot of people. Couldn't hear it clearly, but I guess it must have something to do with Christmas.

Meaning like a sequel to an older Disney movie?
Not sure.
The last time I watched a Disney movie... was a year or so ago.
Like you said, they were probably caroling.

You've changed your name, Min?
I like Be Prepared, as well.

(In the end, I was tempted, yes. XD)

I especially like the part scene where the three Hyenas (can't remember the names) dance around saying "No king, no king, la la la la la la" XD
