How be we are or you all are? For you all (assuming 10 is the highest), I'd say 9, or to make it more fair I'll say an average of 7.8.

As for me, I'm a nice even 2. \:D/

=D I knew you would appreciate it! I LUVS IT TOO.

Hmm, I don't think I can pick just one character so I'll say a blend of two. I think you are a mix of Tigger and Rabbit. =p As for me... Though I aspire to be Pooh Bear, I'm a blend of Piglet and Eeyore. Image

ONE DAY I WILL BE POOH BEAR.

One. Because I am THE SNUBS, the one, and only one that will ever be.

Plus,

Only a snubs could snub a snubs.

My sister came up with it and used to call me snubs. I am not a very tall person, and my sister said a "snubs" sounds like something short and told me I look like a "snubs." :p

Soooo, when it came to joining this place, that was the only reasonable username I could think of. And now it is the name of choice. \:D/
GJFH wrote:What is your favourite movie series?
Hummm. I don't think I have a favorite (I don't watch many movies), but maybe the Spiderman movies (excluding the third), and the Jurassic Park movies (excluding the newest one).
GJFH wrote:What is your favourite cartoon?
Top favorites would be Recess, Winnie the Pooh, and Avatar: The Last Airbender (if that counts)

You have to turn into a fictional villain from any fandom. Who are your top picks? (OCs count)
(The character may have reformed in the story, but they must be primarily known as a villain.)

If you had to rename the days of the week, what would they be?
Months of the year?

If you had to have grown up speaking a different language, which one would you choose?

You have to leave your home country and move to another one, today. Where would you go to?

You can rewrite all the history books to say anything, emphasize any points, or reflect any bias that you want them to. Nobody will know it was ever any different. What changes do you make? (No actual history is changed by this.)

What would you like your life to be like when you're 30?

What would your "dream house" be like?

Would you mind putting some questions on my "Ask" thread? It's buried somewhere in the earlier few pages. I would've bumped it myself if I could have, but you can only edit your last post, even if it's years old.

That's.. actually the best answer I've ever heard to that question.

Avatar the Last Airbender was amazing. Have you seen Legend of Korra?

Umm... 1,2,3,4,5,6,7? :p I don't know.

Maybe like Korean or Japanese... or even Spanish.
Bob wrote:You have to leave your home country and move to another one, today. Where would you go to?
Canada. That would be the most convenient.

That's a question that would require a lot more thought that I don't want to devote to doing so, NEXT QUESTION. O:)
Bob wrote:What would you like your life to be like when you're 30?
Married and hopefully have a child and/or be working on a lot of big projects with my brother, such as books and visual media.
Bob wrote:What would your "dream house" be like?
A TREE HOUSE. Though, having a tree house is kinda conflicting with my style because I like the simplistic, minimalist look that has a very bright, modern and open feel. So maybe the outside could look like a tree house, but the inside is the minimalist (with a touch of bright colors and modernized retro/hipster). \:D/

Tea Ess wrote:Avatar the Last Airbender was amazing. Have you seen Legend of Korra?
Yes, I have. It was, unfortunately, 10 times worse than the original series. :boohoo: However, they did step up their animation game in creating some really nice action sequences. But they took a step back with the incredible amount of CGI and the backgrounds didn't blend very well.

They only had a couple of really good villian characters, the rest were just bleh. I was also hoping for better character development. Like with Jinora for instance, I would have liked to have seen more of airbending power, instead they focused more on her spirit world abilities, which got repetitive. The only storyline I thought they did really well with (from beginning to end) was with Verrick and Zhu Li. :lol:

That's disappointing. =/ I actually liked it a lot, but not as much as the original series. I can't really speak for the animation side however.

I thought the villains all having differing ideologies was interesting, but I would have to agree with you that they didn't top the Ozai, Zuko, or the amazing villain Azula was. I was disappointed by the second season villain (I forgot his name :anxious:), but I liked Amon, Zaheer, and Kuvira.

Character development varied a lot. I'm not sure anything could top Zuko's redemption, but I did think that Korra matured and deepened as a character in some insightful ways, perhaps more than Aang did. For the most part, I also really appreciated getting to see flashbacks about the original characters as well as the old ones who were still alive. Especially Aang's weaknesses as a father and getting to see Toph in her old age. I definitely agree with you about Jinora and the other airbender kids though. I barely even knew who they were until the 4th season, and Milo was just annoying comic relief half of the time. They could have been so much better.

That's funny, because I really didn't appreciate the Verrick Zhu Li storyline that much. :p I enjoyed the fact that they went from being very static characters to Zhu Li developing a personality and Verrick starting to care for her. What made no sense was for Zhu Li basically being Verrick's servant and them not being romantically interested in each other to then suddenly being deeply in love and marrying.

It came about when I kept changing my nick on the chat (back when I first joined) and Quiet Strength was one of them, but as it turned out nothing could beat "snubs" so they never stuck. \:D/

I still liked Quiet Strength so I made it my rank.

---------------------

@T.S. (myself): I could go on and on about how The Legend of Korra could have been better.. but I won't. =p

I will say though, I agree about Amon being an interesting villain (though, they could have made that story a bit better). And Zaheer and his gang was the best they ever did in Korra :yes: (along with the story of how the first avatar came about). Zaheer was definitely a step up from the original.

Basically, I feel like they should have done a more cohesive story throughout the series. Like in the original, there was a very clear beginning, middle, and end. Unlike The Legend of Korra, where basically each season was it's own. It's like they didn't spend as much time and effort into Korra as with The Last Airbender. *shrugs*

:lol: I actually couldn't stand Verrick in the beginning. I was like, "oh great, another stupid unnecessary character" ..but then I started really enjoying the comic relief he added to the show (he helped me get through the series, haha). I was just so glad they actually developed and finished his storyline, I was fearing they wouldn't.

Yeah, I'd agree. I loved how the fourth season built on the third, but the earlier seasons felt weirdly detached from one another.

I have to agree that Verrick started to grow on me as the series progressed. I enjoyed that he got actual character development, it's just that the marriage at the end was too sudden.


If you had to give a color more popularity/usage, which one would you pick?

What does an ideal day look like for you?

What's your second favorite season?

Partly cloudy at a perfect 75 degrees (no humidity), hanging out with friends/siblings and getting ice cream, going to the park or downtown and walking around, or playing frisbee or basketball (or even dodge ball \:D/ ), and building a fire that evening.
T.S. (myself) wrote:What's your second favorite season?
Of the year? Well, I like Spring and Summer, but I kinda combine those, so I'll say Fall/Autumn. :yes:

Yes, my siblings and I marothoned the Toy Story movies and the Spiderman movies (with Tobey Maguire).

I can't say I do. I mean, I don't seek them out to watch, but if I happen to be watching a spy movie, I usually enjoy it (if it's a good story).
