My Thoughts on: Sylar (Warning this will include spoilers)

I have been looking forward to this one for a ever since I started writing these articles. Sylar is my favorite character from the show Heroes. He is the main villain of the show as well as a guy you actually feel sorry for. He is well written and makes the show worth watching just because he is in it. With his ability to understand how other "Evolved Humans" abilities work he can take others abilities however most of the time it requires him to kill his victims. Sylar is played by a great actor named Zachary Quinto who I am actually afraid I will always see as Sylar. Zachary starred as Spock in the latest Star Trek movie and I just saw him as Sylar the whole time. I am going to keep the spoilers to a low level but keeping it to his powers through out but I might get into some events of later episodes. So let us look at Sylar before he slices your head open and steals your ability.

Sylar's real name Gabriel Gray who was just a simple watchmaker who always wanted to be special. He showed the ability to know when things are broken and how to fix them. Often times noticing a time piece is just a second slow and knowing how to fix it. He was approached by Dr. Chandra Suresh about having some sort of special ability. Gabriel was excited to know he could be special and does everything he can to help the Doctor. However when Gabriel finds out what he can do after killing a man with telekinetic abilities he shows the power off to Chandra who is impressed. However the Doctor finds out that Gabriel who is going by Sylar is killing people. Sylar ends up killing the Doctor which starts him down the path of Sylar.

Through out season one Sylar steals six abilities killing all of his victims. The first power he steals is Telekinesis from Brian Davis. This is the first time he uses his ability to take another special persons power. He then murders and steals the powers of Trevor Zeitlan who had the ability of Shattering. Which is used by forming a gun shape with the hand and can shoot things. He gains the ability to freeze things from James Walker who was the first person we see killed. He heads off to Texas to kill a cheerleader named Claire Bennet however he fails after Peter Petrellie. After this he is captured and taken to the company but ends up escaping He ends up killing a man named Zane Taylor who has the power to melt objects. Sylar uses this ability to impress Mohinder Suresh whose father Sylar killed. Mohinder was led to believe the Sylar was Zane and the two started helping each other. However after Sylar mutders Dale Smither he gains super hearing and ends up being found out by Mohinder to be a murderer. Mohinder tries to kill Sylar but fails and Sylar escapes after a confrontation with Peter. This however will lead to the murder of Isaac Mendez taking his precognitive abilities seeing himself destroying New York with a massive explosion. This leads to a confrontation with his mother and her accidental death. He decides he is going to do it and finds and kills the exploding man named Ted Sprague making Sylar a walking nuke who is going to blow up the city. However he is stopped and seemingly killed when he is stabbed by a sword. However he ends up escaping into the sewer.

Now I don't really want to spoil to much more then this (That being from the last episode of season one) However as time goes one he gains more powers over time including.
* Rapid cellular regeneration from Claire Bennet (The Second Coming)
* Alchemy from Bob Bishop (The Butterfly Effect)
* Clairsentience from Bridget Bailey (One of Us, One of Them)
* Sound manipulation from Jesse Murphy (One of Us, One of Them)
* Electric manipulation from Elle Bishop (It's Coming)
* Lie detection from Sue Landers (Our Father)
* Imprinting from Joe Macon (Out of Town... On Business)
* Shape shifting from James Martin (Into Asylum)
* Disintegration from Tom Miller (I Am Sylar)
* Flight from Nathan Petrelli (An Invisible Thread)
* Empathy from Lydia (Let It Bleed)

Now when it comes to Sylar and his development over the time is rather fun to watch killing the people who he finds have powers. He want to become the strongest person with abilities. His character is dark and creepy with the coolest looking eye brows. Now mote things have happened then this but I really don't want to spoil it. The first season is the best season of Heroes however Sylar kept me watching. His conflicts with Peter are always entertaining as for the most part they are equal in power (For the most part). However I am going to wrap this article up by saying that Sylar is one of my favorite television characters even if I did a top ten list he will be very high on the list maybe making it to the top three. He is an incredible character as well as very well acted making me a happy boy every time I see him as well as seeing Zachary Quinto in any role. So those are my thoughts on Sylar and I just love the evil creep.

Legend of Zelda Files: Wizrobe

Disclaimer: This is done for fun and there isn't any actual connection between what is said in this article and the real character. I do not own this character or the Legend of Zelda series they are owned by Nintendo. If I did own it then I probably would not be writing this.


Welcome my dear friends to another installment of The Legend of Zelda Files with your host Andy Balbac. I am Andy Balbac and I will take you deep into the background of one of the greatest franchises (the greatest in this non egotistical reporters humble opinion.) Todays interview comes from an enemy from Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask. We will talk to a man called Wizrobe. Or is it the Wizrobe? Maybe a Wizrobe? Well regardless lets get into the interview.

Me: "Mr. Wizrobe thank you for meeting with me today. However it would have been nice if you wouldn't have attacked me when I got here."

Wizrobe: "Yea I am sorry about that I have been very paranoid lately."

Me: "Paranoid why are you paranoid"

Wizrobe: "It all started a while ago when some pointy eared kid dressed in green burst into my house."

Me: "That sounds like Link. What happened next."

Wizrobe: "This Link kid breaks into my room with a sword and shield as well as a bunch of other weapons. I felt like he was going to try to kill me and I defended myself the best I could."

Me: "It was always made to seem that you attacked first. Is this just claiming you are just an innocent person Link attacked un provoked."

Wizrobe: "Yes I am one of the many good natured creatures that monster has harmed for no reason."

Me: "So what happened after he attacked you?"

Wizrobe: "I tried to defend myself as best as I could but that monster kept trying to slash at me with his sword and he was even shooting arrows at me."

Me: "Thats just awful please continue"

Wizrobe: "Well he ended up defeating me and then he stole my......"

Me: "Its ok you can tell me what happened."

Wizrobe: "He stole my precious fire arrows from me."

Me: "Oh I did not know that I am sorry that happened."

Wizrobe: "It would have been ok if he only did this once but no it happens about six times."

Me: "How can he keep getting away with this?"

Wizrobe: "He has the backing of some big company Nintendo I think who covers up all of his illegal activities."

Me: "Big Business strikes again."

Wizrobe: "I know its terrible but someone needed to speak out against this monster."
Me: "Don't you think that might be dangerous."

Wizrobe: Yes it could very easily get me killed but as long as this interview makes it to air it will be worth it."

Me: "You are a very brave man for sticking up for the injustices that this Link has committed."

Wizrobe: "Thank you."

Me: "Can I ask you one more question?"

Wizrobe: "Sure."

Me: "Why is your name spelt Wizrobe instead of Wizzrobe like to rest of them?"

Wizrobe: "It was a typo and I just decided to go with it."

Me: "Oh no tragic story about it huh?"

Wizrobe: "Nope."

Me: "Well then thank you for meeting with me today please keep in touch and we will be sure this story gets out."

"That was the last we ever heard from Wizrobe as he was killed soon after this interview. An eye witnessed happened to see him being attacked by a figure completely covered in a brown robe wielding two blades coming out of his arms. No one saw the attackers face but he made quick work of Wizrobe. However he died for a good cause and the interview made it to air and I am going to be just fine."

My Thoughts on: Myotismon.

Ok this is another geek post about digimon from the first and second season. Myotismon is a vampire like digimon who feasts on the deleted data of defeated digimon (So many D words someone say it five times fast.) He is also one of the few digimon to get into the real world or at least one of the first. While in the real world he also got the taste for human blood. He is dressed like a classic vampire very fancy gentlemen like appearance swapping out the black with a purple but still looks fancy. He was just main villain in the first season of Digimon Adventure but he was the main villain in Digimon Adventure 02. So lets enter the darkness as we look at Myotismon.

Myotismon is the third boss in Digimon Adventure after beating Etimon in Server. Myotismon was the most powerful digimon the team has ever faced at the time and would easily beat the Digidestined even with the Digimon being able to digivolve into there ultimate level. Myotismon has many minions including DemiDevimon and Gatomon and origional enter the real world in search of the 8th digidestined so he may destroy them making the digidestined unable to beat him (he found a prophecy that said the 8th digidestined would destroy him.) He had his minions looking all over for this person who turned out to be the little sister of Tia named Kari. It turns out the Gatomon a cat digimon is Kari's partner and they eventually join together. Gatomon was able to digivolve to Angewomon and with the help of the other Digimon all of them combining their powers and killing Myotismon. However he is not really dead and as foretold by the prophecy he was resurrected at the time of the beast (6 minutes and 6 seconds after 6pm).

Venommyotismon is Myotismon's mega form also called his true form. He is much more powerful then his previous form but is no where near as smart. He is consumed by hunger even feasting on his own minions. He is very quick to anger and all he wants to do is devourer all life. However it wasn't until Wargraymon drilled into his chest getting the true body allowing them to destroy him. However his spirit survived and infused itself into the human Yukio Oikawa and use him to set the events of Digimon Adventure 02 into motion three years later.
In Digimon Adventure 02 he was behind all of the events that happened in the series. He created Mummymon and Arukenimon out of his DNA/Data. Then lead Ken Ichijouji to become the Digimon Emperor who created the dark spires, rings, and spirals. He used these to control digimon and stop them from digivolving. The Spires were then used to create powerful Digimon by Arukenimon and Mummymon to bring about the end of the world. Myotismon used the human body to spread dark spores to children controlling them and holding them for ransom. Myotismon told Oikawa that the spores would weaken the digital world defenses when it was actually used to resurrect himself. After a while he opened a portal to an extension of the digital world which causes dreams to come true. He finally shows himself as Malomyotismon who easily over powered the Digidestined. Even after the digidestined's desire to win resulted in all of the digivolved forms of the digimon to come out at once attacking Malomyotismon however it still wasn't enough to destroy the monster. Sadly his destruction was rather lame not really fitting the character but he was defeated by the combined light of all of the Digidestineds digivices all over the world (revealing that there are many all over the world not just Japan where the series takes place.) This combined light broke the darkness that Malomyotismon had created and defeating him. This completely destroyed Myotismon and he isn't seen again in the show.

So I really like Myotismon despite the lame death but his sheer power was rather cool. He was an interesting villain as well as a character in general. It seems he had a lot more to do with the events of season one then it seemed. That is Myotismon in a nutshell he is not as interesting as Impmon and Beelzemon actually having character development. However he works well for an ultimate evil character. He was cool and rather fun as well as very cold. The whole invading the Real World knocking out all of the communication with the rest of the world and even capturing and holding the adults hostage even brainwashing them. He is a good embodiment of evil. Don't worry though all he wants to do is devour your soul.

My Thoughts on: The Janitor

Yes its another Scrubs post about Sacred Hearts man of mystery. He is the man without a name only going by Janitor (which is even on his name tag.) Under him is a mountain of lies and pranks. He is the man the leader of the Janitorial staff and founder of the Brain Trust. So lets get out our mops and plungers and get take a look at the Janitor.


So lets try to figure out the Janitor's back story shall we? Well we can try but we have no idea what it is. He has so many different back stories the only one that we know is true is that he was in the Fugitive (The actor who plays him really was in the movie.) Other stories about the Janitor's background include him growing up believing his mother was his sister (Sister-mom) he thought his dad was his brother (brother-dad). He claimed that his mother once snapped her index finger because her husband was late for church. His dad once threw himself down the steps because his wife dented the car. Apparently his mom left his crib out in the driveway when a marble fountain just happened to fall from the sky. He claims to have a deaf sister, an inuit stepmother, a stripper brother, and funniest of all a step brother named Cleet who is older then his father. When Cleet had his midlife crisis he would not stop fighting with his step father and even slept with his mother. I bet your wondering how messed up is this guy just wait there is more of his lies and stories with his current life.


The Janitor is very cryptic about his normal life as well coming up with random lies and stories as the show progresses. He claims to be married to a woman who only has a pointer finger on one hand and thumb pinky on the other (She knitted JD a pair of shorts even though they are just scrubs with hemmed bottoms.) He also claims that he has a son named Timmy who was in a school play that JD made the Janitor miss. Timmy stopped eating as a result of this. The Janitor also took JD's lab coat and stethoscope to go to career day at Timmy's school as a Doctor instead of a Janitor (He called himself Dr. Jan Itor.)


Now there are some things about the Janitor that are true so lets get into this short section. The Janitor is a skilled taxidermist liking to use squirrels actually forming his own army. However he sadly had to trade his Squirrel army for a stuffed dog named Stephen. He is currently married to a lady named Lady (Ladinia Williams) who actually accepts her husband for who he is with all his craziness. As I mentioned earlier he was a former actor having a part in the movie "The Fugitive". He is also a world-class 100-meter hurdler which he proved true while running and hurdling over obstacles in order to tackle JD before he changed the batteries in a tracking device (The Janitor swallowed the chip and JD could track his movements.) Thats it the only things we know are true long list huh.


So after that lets get into the relationships with other characters. Mainly with JD, Dr. Cox, and Dr. Elliot Reed. So lets start with JD this is a strange relationship and probably the longest. The Janitor tortures JD constantly in retaliation to a penny that the Janitor thinks JD stuck in a door causing it to jam. The Janitor will go to strange lengths to torture JD. Actually kidnaping him in one episode (Left him in the water tower for the day.) The Janitor also sneaks into JD's apartment and messes with his stuff on one occasion he even moved JD and his bed to the Sacred Heart parking lot. This resulted with JD being woken up by an ambulance siren and he also found out he was naked. The Janitor has also got JD to the top of the flag pole telling him that he wont get him down until he has spent some time acting as a flag. In the commentary for Season 1 that if the show was not renewed for a second season then it would be reviled that the Janitor was just a figment of JD's imagination (The Janitor only interacted with JD in season 1.) Now at the end of season 8 when JD left the Hospital the Janitor actually seemed upset and waited for him to come back until Turk told him JD wasn't coming back. After hearing this news the Janitor dropped his mop and left the Hospital never being heard from again. Now JD and the Janitor have a lot more history but this is just the condensed version.


The Janitor and Dr. Cox have a very different relationship as it seems they are some what friends. They sometimes go out drinking and will also torment JD together (See the moving his bed above.) However The Janitor does not want to ruin his reputation with the cleaning staff by being seen hanging with a doctor at the hospital. The two of them seem to but heads with one another on several occasions. Neither one seems to fear the other but with the Janitor having his own army of custodial staff. The conflict between the two of them once ended with Dr. Cox being locked in a Morgue drawer. They have also competed over an empty hospital room that was designed for rich people. The two of them seem to be constantly against each other but still seem to get along.


The last main relationship is between the Janitor and Elliot which is kind of odd. The Janitor has a huge crush on Elliot and always has. He has even proposed to her but she didn't even realize it. He has often helped her out when she needs it. He has given her advice as well as help her boost her spirits. She considers him sweet which JD just hates. The Janitor even created an a capella singing group called Hibbleton just so she would not think he was weird showing up for coffee in a suit. The funny thing is despite having a huge crush on her The Janitor does not even know her name often calling her Blond Doctor.


The question everyone seems to ask is who is the Janitor what is his real name. after 8 seasons that answer has still never been given. In the episode "My Finale" JD asks him what his name is and Janitor says Glenn Matthews however two seconds later a orderly calls him Tommy making it seem like a lie. Now he has been called Tom before in the series but most fans believe his name to be Neil Flynn who is the actor who plays him. Since it shows the character in the Fugitive and Neil Flynn did have a part in that movie it would make sense that they share a name. However it has never been confirmed and I don't think we will ever know his real name.

Like Dr. Cox we have a couple of lists of likes dislikes and nicknames and alter

# Dr. Elliot Reid ("My Female Trouble")

# Rotinaj

# Glen Matthews (possibly his real name) ("My Finale")

# Tommy ("My Finale")


So that is my thoughts on The Janitor. The man who is a mystery to all and maybe even to himself. His lies keep him hidden from reality and his thoughts are rather strange often wanting super powers are a son with gills. His life is strange and confused but I wouldn't want him any other way. He is one of my favorite characters from Scrubs as well as of all time. So the Janitor is awesome and if you haven't seen the show watch Scrubs can't say how much I love that show.

Legend of Zelda Files: King Zora

Disclaimer this is made as a parody and spoof on my beloved franchise. It is all fictional and not really related to the characters as part of there background.


Today on The Legend of Zelda Files we will be looking at the over weight king fish himself. King Zora is the proud leader of the Zora fish people who dwell in Zora's domain. Now most Zoras are sleek and beautiful King Zora is very heavy set and lazy. However since the events of Ocarina of Time the King has been working out. Now his excises is a little strange but it seems to have been effective he has dropped 100lbs since the beginning of his working out. Now he has even built up muscle mass and has quite a nice body at the moment. Now I sat down with the King in his domain.

Me: "I have to thank you for letting me met with you today and I have to say you look great."

King: "Thank you Andy I am glad you like all the progress I made with this new work out."

Me: "Well you have defiantly made progress just look at those arms. I mean do I have to buy a ticket to this gun show?"

King: "You might just have to. You know Andy if I had this body back in the day I would have stopped Ganondorf myself. Give him a good one to the face you know what I mean."

Me: "How would you have gotten into the castle if memory serves the sages built Link a rainbow bridge."

King: "Shut up Andy"

Me: "Oh yea gotcha. So can you tell me your secret?"

King: "What secret is that?"

Me: "Well your secret exercise?"

King: "Oh yes that well I guess I can. It all started when I young Link visited me and informed me that my daughter was eaten by Jabu Jabu and he needed to go see him..."

Me: "Sorry to interrupt but your not saying that the exercise is the..."

King: "Yes Andy my secret exercise is butt scooting across my seat here."

Me: "Wow really thats a surprise. How did you figure out that this was working for you?"

King: "well to be honest after we were frozen I just couldn't stay still any more and I just started scooting. Then when results started showing the rest of the Zora's started encouraging me and this is the result. Heck now I can even make a Goron shake with fear."

Me: "Well you defiantly look a lot better then you did back then."

King: "Yes well I am not to happy about my past self all of that sitting there was killing me. Now I see that my Daughter being eaten by a whale was the best thing to happen to me."

Me: "Where is the princess Ruto at may I ask?"

King: "Oh ummm shes guarding some temple in the lake I really don't know. We haven't talked to much since the whole freezing incident. I know she is safe though and its not really so much she doesn't want to its more shes the sage of water thing you know how it goes. I am very proud of her."

Me: "Well she grew up to become a very beautiful young lady. Are the rumors of her and Link being a couple true?"

King: "Well it depends on what you mean. She did give him the Zora Samphire which her mother told her to only give to the man she was going to marry. However when the little snot vanished for seven years he broke my poor daughters heart. However when she became the Sage she realized what had happened and let her anger go. I still feel like breaking his face but he did save well the world so I forgave him."

Me: "Well that was very nice of you to do."

King: "Well as king I need to be fair and just and I feel like it is my duty to forgive him."

Me: "Well sir you are truly a great example of what a monarch should be. Thank you for letting me sit down and talk to you. It has been a real honor."

King: "Your welcome Andy you are welcome here anytime."

So that was my interview with King Zora the proud ruler of the Zora people. His success is truly inspirational. Please tune in next week when our next episode of The Legend of Zelda Files airs. I am Andy Balbac and thank you for joining us.

My thoughts on: Freakazoid

I want to welcome everyone to the Freakalair as we talk about the man, the myth, and the legend known as Freakazoid. Now I love this show and this character he really shows what it might be like inside my brain. Freakazoid like my brain is a mess of nonsense and awesomeness. The jokes and creative characters made this show epic and from the same minds that brought use Tiny Toons and Animaniacs how can anyone be suprised the show is awesome. So lets get ready to get our freak on so with that I say FREAK OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Let us start this tale the humble beginnings of teenager Dexter Douglas who was a nerd and a computer ace. One day he went surfing on the Internet and he was zapped into cyber space. He then turned into the Freakazoid who is strong and super quick he seems to drive the villains crazy because he is a lunatic. So does that make his origin crystal clear? No well thats ok its just part of the theme song. So here is the real origin which of course comes in the first episode right? WRONG YOU STUPID PIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Wow I am sorry about that. No the origin is explained in episode six because that makes sense right??? Well silly billy goat in this show making sense is not very important. So in the Chip part 1 we find out about this flawed computer chip that is a special sequence is punched in ("@[=g3,8d]\&fbb=-q]/hk%fg" starting with the quotes and ending with hitting the delete key) will suck someone into the internet. I have tried and sadly it doesn't work I mean what could go wrong if I had super strength speed and all of the knowledge of the internet that can't end badly right? Any who Dexter Douglas is given this defective chip for Christmas and instantly installs it into his computer. When his cat walks on the key board typing the sequence. When Dexter sees this he presses delete and is zapamafacated into the internet. This turns him into Freakazoid with the ability to do basically what ever his twisted little mind thinks up. So Freakazoid is all the cats fault and it should feel bad and stuff. Also some behind the scenes origin Freakazoid was originally going to be designed by Bruce Timm the man behind Batman The Animated Series. He was going to base Freakazoid off of one of my favorite minor characters in his Batman cartoon named the Creeper. Even though I think that would have been awesome it would not have been the Freakazoid I know in love. However if a show was made around Timm's version of the Creeper I would be "Happier then a tornado in a trailer park" (Mikey Hodges). Ok it shouldn't because there are plenty of baddies for Freakazoid to beat up.


Now all good heroes need good villains and Freak has a lot of them. Yes I know this article is about Freakazoid but it is also the name of the show so I am going to talk about other people as well if you don't like it then.......you can continue to not like it. So lets start off with the villains and a short bio.


The Lobe: The lobe is a man like thing ok he is human but his head is a missive brain. Its not someone with a big head and a brain inside of it his brain is his head. He is super smart, has low self esteem, and a rather good singer. Sometimes he can be defeated by someone simply insulting him saying his plan is stupid even though it is brilliant.


Candle Jack: He is a rather cool character who is a ghost who will capture anyone who says his name. Candle Jack is actually rather well known despite the fact that he isn't in many episodes. In one episode "The Island of Dr. Mystico" Jack spends the whole episode scaring Freakazoid's butler the Professor.


Those are just the two of my favorite bad guys I also love Officer Mike Cossgrove of the police force. He is a really funny character with a monotone voice and a really stupid but effective catch phrase. He has to be one of the best cops on the force because all he has to do is tell a criminal to "Cut it out" and they will stop. Which they actually show on an episode with a cops parody. He is a great character brilliantly voiced as well as really really really really funny.

"Now I think its time for a word from our sponsors."

"Sorry typing man no sponsors here all we have his more magic words so READ THEM AND MAKE ME A SANDWICH!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Now back to our regular program"

So yes back to Freakazoid the guy who this article is about. He is completely crazy some people even say his brain has a chocolate molding. I think it is accurate I mean to run all the way to Tibet because a racking monk is making so much noise that it was driving him insane. Then running back there just to apologize. He prevented World War II from happening when he dressed up as a security gard and stopped all of the Japanese bombers from attacking Pearl Harbor by saying he is searching for fruits and torpedos and the planes retreat. Freakazoid has dealt with smart cave men, orangumen, Giant snakes, Aliens, ghosts, monsters, and even love. Facing each problem with courage and without getting distracted.....ok maybe a little distracted. Cosgrove keeps asking him to do something and he does it.


So with this I leave the story of our greatest hero Freakazoid. He is a blue skinned wacky man and I love him for it. His jokes and crossovers with Pinky and the Brain as well as Wakko Warner arguing about which show is Stephens favorite Freakazoid claiming he had a memo. So thats Freakazoid in a nut shell

Cosgrove: "Hey Andy"

Me: "Oh hey Cosgrove"

Cosgrove: "What you up to"

Me: "Just finishing this articel"

Cosgrove: "Want to get a snow cone"

Me: "DO I EVER ummmmmmmm bye peoples"

My Thoughts on: Impmon

If you didn't already know that I was a geek then you do now. Yes I was one of the kids who grew up watching shows like Pokemon and Digimon and you know what I loved them. However this is going to be about a little Digimon from the third season of the show (Digimon Tamers.) Now if any of you "The English Dub Sucks" people feel like complaining about the fact that I don't know anything about the Japanese version then you can just sit silently. I never knew anything about the Japanese version and I don't really feel like learning anything about it. Okay now I recently watched all of the episodes of Digimon I could find on youtube which took me up to Digimon Data Squad which I was just fine with not seeing that one.

So this is about one Digimon named Impmon and if you know the series then your probably thinking
"Andy you egotistical hunk of sexyness he wasn't even a major character until the middle of the season."

I would then say. "Shut up and make me a sandwich"
So sit silently and learn before I Digivolve into Ultra Andymon and step on you.

So Impmon is one of the most human like digimon in this series. He has a very humanlike appearance as well as attitude. He likes to act all tough and thinks very highly about himself despite his small size and low power level. Impmon is a very interesting character from the beginning because you know very little about him. You can tell he doesn't like the digimon who team up and work with humans and just seems to have ill feelings towards all humans. He will often cause problems for humans by attacking them randomly in attempts to scare them. He starts to form a love hate relationship with a digimon named Renamon. He seems to love her personality and style but hates the fact that she is a "slave" to a human.

Impmon was always envious of the "tamed" digimon because they can digivolve (change to the next more powerful form) and Impmon could not. He always wanted to digivolve but with out a tamer he could not. When the Deva's (The Deva "Twelve Heavenly Generals" are a group of twelve Ultimate-level Holy Beast Digimon that are derived from the Buddhist myth of the Twelve Heavenly Generals, deities who protected the Bhaiṣajyaguru. The Twelve Heavenly Generals were eventually conflated with the animals of the Chinese zodiac in Japanese Buddhism, and so the Deva are represent those figures. The Deva are followers of the Digimon Sovereigns, and each Sovereign has three Deva subordinates.) start to attack the Japan in search of a digimon named Calumon (who is the key to digivolution) Impmon decides he was going to battle the giant horse Deva named Indramon. The Deva is very vain and thinks he is the best thing since sliced bread which Impmon uses to his advantage by insulting him. However with Impmon only being a rookie level digimon and the Deva being super mega awesome powerful (I think I stated the Deva's Levels above but don't feel like checking.) Needless to say little Impmon got the snot kicked out of him but he never gave up and would not let the others help him. After the battle he was severely injured both in body and in mind. His ego crushed he wished he could be stronger and wanted to digivolve when a voice beckoned him into the Digital World. Where he would be given the power to Digivole if he destroyed the Tamers and their Digimon. Now this is where the main story of Impmon ends but the story of Beelzemon begins.

Beelzemon is the Mega form of Impmon and he is so freaking Awesome. Beelzemon is a play on the name Beelzebub which is synonymous with the devil. Beelzemon looks very human in this form having a human shaped body and even wearing a biker style outfit. He connects even farther with the human theme by having a shot gun he can use for his attacks as well as being in possession of a motorcycle. Which we see him get this in the most kick ass way driving it out of a pool of lava that it was thrown in after causing havok on with its cursed rider. He has about three non human characteristics a third eye and a tail.

Beelzemon showed he earned his devil like name by obliterating a bunch of Digimon just because he had the power to do so. He was then told to up hold his side of the bargain by attacking the Tamers and their partners. In one of there battles with the Tamers he committed one of the darkest acts seen in this type of show, He killed a main character named Leomon who was the beast king and partner to a girl named Juri Katou (Leomon has been established as a main character since season one and even though no other characters from previous seasons are around it is assumed that he is the origional Leomon because of the same voice and look.) He then absorbs Leomons Data deleting him and taking his power. Beelzemon even manages to single handedly destroy the monkey Deva (Literally with one hand) by grabbing his head and squeezing it until he was nothing but data which Beelzemon soon absorbs granting him the power of a Deva. Then when the Dog Deva attacks the Tamers Beelzemon lets them destroy the Dog before he took his data exclaiming "LONG LIVE THE DEVAS" as he takes the data. After a very long and hard fight Beelzemon is finally defeated but spared because Juri did not want to see any more people die even though she hated him for killing Leomon. The battle de-digivolved back into Impmon who is now incredibly weak. It will also lead us into Impmons next phase of development.

Impmon makes it back to the real world and really does feel bad about what he has done. He wishes he could make it up to Juri but first needs to see a couple kids. At this time the D-Reaper (a deletion program that has made its way from the digital world to the real world. Is destroying the world slowly. The D-Reaper has captured Juri and is using her to communicate. Impmon goes and visits a young boy and girl who turned out are his tamers. He ran away from them a while ago because all they did was fight over him. He went up to them and mushy words were exchanged leading for the boy to give Impmon his favorite toy gun after Impmon told them that he had to go fight the D-Reaper the boy hoped it would help him out. Impmon said I know it will kid as he digivolved into Beelzemon Blast Mode. Regaining the wings (Normal mode does not have wings) as well as the toy gun turning into a large arm mounted cannon. He then used this mode to attempt to free Juri from the D-Reaper even resorting to using Leomon's powerful move "Fist of the Beast King" hoping this would get Juri free but scares her more then anything. Beelzemon was then attacked by the D-Reaper almost ending in him getting deleted before being saved by one of the other Digimon. His data is starting to leave his body (Which means he is very close to death) and De-Digivolves back into Impmon. Once the D-Reaper is destroyed he asks for Juri's forgiveness even though he did not feel that he deserved it himself. However she did forgive him after seeing how hard he tried to save her. That is all from Impmon in this series until the movie based off this season came out but I haven't seen it.

Now I simply love Impmon his rough and tough attitude and his "Bada Boom" attack giving him a catch phrase that reminds me of a gangster. However his pure awesomness kicks in when he becomes Beelzemon and starts face squashing Devas. So those are my thought on Impmon and yes I am a geek.

My Thoughts on: Dr. Cox

Now Scrubs is one of my all time favorite television shows. Its writing is genius, the jokes are hilarious, the flash backs are the best, and the characters are jus fantastic. I have two characters featured in my list and like the title says this is going to be about Dr. Cox. In my opinion Cox is one of my favorites. It doesn't matter what he is saying I still like it. I also like the actor who plays Perry Cox named John C. McGinley. John has acted in a number a movies but he is not the point of the article this is about the character Dr. Cox. So sit down you Nancy's and read this.

Dr. Percival "Perry" Ulysses Cox will also refer to himself as Jesus H. Cox MD. which is a very accurate nick name for him seeing as he is the best Doctor on the Sacred Heart Staff. Dr. Cox is egotistical, narcissistic, sarcastic, sociopath, and a loveable drunk. I actually wrote a paper for an assignment in my high school creative writing class about Scrubs focusing on Dr. Cox call "The Ones Who Drink Alone" This paper had a double meaning not just about people drinking but also about loneliness. This paper took three characters from Scrubs Dr. Cox, JD, and Ted and why they were so lonely.

Dr. Cox is the head honcho, the chief, the big cheese, and the Chief of Medicine at Sacred Heart Hospital. He was promoted to Chief after Dr. Bob Kelso retired and Dr. Maddox was fired being worse then Kelso. From there Cox started teaching at Winston University. Dr. Cox has very interesting relationships with the people he deals with on a daily basis. I will talk about the relationships with the main characters as well as other things about the Coxer.

Dr. Cox has a family with a "wife" and two kids. Now I put the quotes around wife because Jordan and Dr. Cox are divorced but they live together and do love each other. Since the Divorce they have had two kids together a son named Jack and a daughter named Jennifer Dylan (aka JD.) Jordan and Dr. Cox have a very interesting relationship in the fact that they are exactly alike. Jordan a Perry complement each other perfectly (personality wise) they also insult each other perfectly. To most people it seems that they hate each other but in reality it is the opposite. Now Jack is just a young boy but he has delivered some of the funniest lines. Like "I pooped in my bed and I put it on the TV." and "Man Check" after saying this he punches his dad in the balls and runs back to mommy who said he did a good job. Cox always hates it when someone calls his daughter JD and was a little upset at Jordan for giving her the name (JD suggested it.)

Now he also has strange relationships with his co-workers so let us start with John Dorian. JD has always seen Dr. Cox as a mentor much to the annoyance of Perry. He has never seen JD as an equal until JD left the hospital at the end of the season eight. Cox often demeans JD by calling him a girls name and even female dog names. He has been called names from Nancy to Lassie. Cox often rants at JD expressing how much he does not care about what he has to say. He will help JD sometimes having a lesson in his rants and speeches but will usually challenge JD to do better. He know JD has great potential and goes as far as to say He believes him to be the best doctor to go through the hospital because of how much he cared and that he was not only an extraordinary physician but also an extraordinary person.

Elliot Reid is a person that Dr. Cox can not stand to him she is a dumb blond. He calls her Barbie because of her blond hair and bubble headed nature. She used to be afraid of Dr. Cox but got over him and turning to him for help with Dr. Kelso. The two of them were never close because he was often a jerk to her. However when Elliot decided to become privet practice Dr. Cox started having a huge problem with her calling her a sell out.

Turk and Dr. Cox constantly seem to have a pissing contest. They are trying to out man each other when playing sports as well as working out. Both of them have huge egos that often conflict. Turk is the best surgeon at Sacred Heart but Dr. Cox hates surgeons calling the Cutters only wanting to slice and dice patients. However him and Turk started growing closer and are the only origional character still on the show.

Carla is someone that Dr. Cox has a huge crush on however she is married to Turk. Which is one of the problems Cox always had with Turk. However that vanished as Jordan and him got closer. Carla have been friends for a long time and is one of the few people who he will share things with. She is the only one who he can talk to about things with.
Dr. Kelso was Cox's superior the whole time Cox worked at the hospital. They two of the constantly butt heads when it comes to hospital policy. Cox always thought that Kelso was a cheap ass tight wad who is either the spawn of Satan or Satan himself. However after Kelso retired and Dr. Cox became the new Chief of Medicine he realized the Kelso's job required him to make the tough unpopular decisions that are in the best interest of the hospital. The two of them became close friends and now actually hang out.

Dr. Cox has a long list of things he dislike often stating them in one of his rants. So here is a list of all the thing Dr. Cox does not like.
* J.D.
* Hugh Jackman
* Receiving help from others in any form
* Dane Cook ("My House")
* Being given nicknames by complete strangers
* Republicans
* The Republican National Convention
* Hope Floats
* Being wrong
* Emotions
* Religion
* Shrinks
* Losing patients
* The Big Discussions
* Anyone who adds "izzle" to any word.
* Private practice doctors ("My Friend with Money")
* Everything in all discovered and undiscovered dimensions
* People who say the phrase "Let's rock and roll" or "I have to rock and roll"
* The name Perry
* People who wear their hands-free phones while not using them
* People who call Wednesday "Humpday" ("My Big Brother")
* All Sandra Bullock movies ("My Big Brother")
* Low carb diets
* High def TV
* Wireless hot spots
* The United Nations
* Getting Punk'd
* The Latin Grammys
* The real Grammys
* Jeff, that darn Wiggle that sleeps too much
* The Yankee's payroll
* All the red states
* All the blue states
* Michael Moore
* The Bush daughters
* Kabbalah, and all Kabbalah-related products
* People not listening to what he has to say
* Dermatologists
* Every Hybrid Car
* Every Talkshow Host
* Everything on the planet
* Everything in the solar system
* Everything
* The term "Back in the day" being used by young people. ("My ABC's")
* Being touched.
* People calling his daughter J.D.

So as you can see Dr. Cox does not like a lot of things but there are other things he likes so here is another list.

* Scotch on the rocks
* Sports (Detroit Red Wings, Pittsburgh Steelers)
* Giving rants
* Working out (Especially those that involve abs)
* Lindsay Lohan
* The "Welcome Back, Coxer" shirt ("My Déjà vu, My Déjà vu")
* Lee Marvin Movies
* Jerome Bettis
* The gays; their music, their sense of style, what they've done with Halloween
* He used to like to hike but Jordan got that in the divorce ("My Occurrence")
* Being referred to by certain names such as "Big Cheese," "Chief Dr. Cox" or "Dr. Professor Cox."
*Drew
* His thesaurus
* Flicking the dead

The lists are from Scrubs Wiki. Now like I said I love Dr. Cox he is a lot of fun to watch and listen to. His rants are entertaining as well as interesting to listen to. His character is so much fun everything from the way he talks and acts. So those are my thoughts on Dr. Perry Cox.

Legend of Zelda Files: Error

Disclaimer the things in this article are fictional done for fun. It is not actually in a game just based loosely off of a game in the Legend of Zelda Universe. So sit down shut up and enjoy it.

Now people might know Error from The Legend of Zelda II the Adventure of Link. He is famous for spouting his famous line I am Error. When you see him again he will say something completely different however what you may not know that second guy was not the real Error. It was Error's clone Larry (yes cloning exists). Error was to depressed to continue with the making of the game. The line I am Error is filled with pain and sadness. So let us get into this depressing story and the background of the man known only as Error.

Now the real Error had a rough life starting with the unfortunate name. He had a very rough home life and was not shown much love. I managed to get a hold of Error for an interview at his home in Ruto. Error no longer has the ability to communicate due to has mental state and a translator is provided so I can understand him.

Me: "Mr. Error thank you for allowing me to come here and talk to you."

Error via translator: "It is now problem Andy it is about time I get this off my chest"

Me: "Well Error why don't you tell me about your child hood and the name?"

Error: : "Well it all started when I was a kid. My parents were constantly fighting and we never had much money. My parents loved my sister and brother so much more then me. Well my parents named me Error because that is what I was to them. I was an Error they never wanted me as a child."
Me: "I am sorry to hear that its just awful"
Error: "Thanks but it doesn't matter anymore."
Me: "Well what led to your famous "I am Error" line in Legend of Zelda II?"
Error: "Well this is a difficult story but I feel I can talk about it now"
Me: "Thank you Error"
Error: "Well my life was full of bad luck or I guess you could call them "errors" however I thought I had fixed my bad luck when I met the girl of my dreams. He name was Maggie she had the most beautiful brown hair I have ever seen in my life. Blue eyes, brown hair, sweetest voice, and the biggest heart. We instantly feel in love and were married one year later. We had two beautiful daughter Mary and Beth. Yes I know its a stupid joke but they were the sweetest girls. How ever three years later my life had another "error". My Beautiful Maggie and I were up on the roof working when she asked me to pass her a hammer and andan......... I really can't talk about it. It just hurts to much but my Maggie ended up passing away and I went into a deep depression. I started to develop some sort of mental thing which slowly caused me to turn into what you see today. All I can say now is "I am Error" and because of my depression and my illness I was seen as an unfit parent and Mary and Beth were taken from me and now live with my brother Roger and his wife."
Me: "if it isn't to much to ask why were you replaced after you said your "I am Error" line.
Error: "Well at this point my illness had taken full effect I know longer could say anything other then "I am Error" I was unable to get this across and when it came to saying the first line everyone loved it but when it came to the second they wanted me to stop fooling around. They soon realized that was all I could say they fired me.
Me: "I don't think that is legal to fire you for that"
Error: "Its not I was going to sue them for wrongful termination but I did not have the money to do it."
Me: "Error"
Error: "pleas don't call me that any more call me Frank"
Me: "Okay Frank thank you for sharing your sad story I wish you all the luck in the world and any help I can offer.
Me: "Thank you for sharing your story Frank"

That interview was filmed a year ago and life has been getting better for him slightly. He has been able to reconnect with his Kids and life has gone on. So that is the sad story of the man once know as Error. I hope you will join us next time on "The Legend of Zelda Files"

My Thoughts on: Scooby Doo and Shaggy Rodgers

I felt like these two needed a little love and since they were big in my childhood I had to include them as one of the ten favorite cartoon and tv characters. Now this is not a top ten list as I originally was thinking. There were just so many character I love so I am sure I will be doing this again later on. Now if you haven't heard of these two gluttonous clown then you have been been in cryogenic suspension since the 70's (Which I don't think they knew how to do that back then.) So grab a box of Scooby Snacks and maybe a triple decker super sub sandwich as we take a big bit into My Thoughts on: Scooby Doo and Shaggy Rodgers.

Now this is going to be simple I am going to analyze both characters and tell you why I love them and who better to start with then Scooby Doo. Now Scooby is the character the show is named after and for good reason I mean if I had a talking Great Dane in some sort of show I would make him the star. So a little back ground Scooby (Scoobert) Doo was born in the Knittingham Puppy Farm and was then bought by Shaggy Rodgers which made the dynamic duo I am now writing about. Now Scooby can talk (for some reason) and often adds "R's" to his words like Ra Ro instead of Uh Oh. Scooby as also a huge coward constantly running from the ghosts and monsters they are investigating. However this usually works to the teams favor running into the monster or ghost and trapping them allowing them to unmask the bad guys.

Shaggy Rodgers was born in late July with his real name being Norville "Shaggy" Rodgers. Shaggy is a Hippie no other ways to say it he looks like a Hippie, he sounds like a hippie, and he acts like a hippie which is just fine because he was created in the hippie era. Shaggy like Scooby is also a big coward and has the odd tendencie to eat Scooby Snacks (dog treats.) After eating these treats Shaggy will become braver and do things he would not usually do. Now this is the same for Scooby but a dog eating dog treats isn't strange at all. Shaggy has owned Scooby since he was just a kid (The live action "Scooby Doo the mystery begins states they met when Shaggy was a older teen.) In a Pup Named Scooby do it was shown (and made cannon) that Scooby and Shaggy were together at a young age.

Now besides the the cowardice they share one trait and that is they are huge gluttons. Now for the people that don't know what that is it is someone who eats a lot. By some sort of imaginary magic the two never gain any weight. Food jokes are often used in episodes where Shaggy makes something huge like a mega sandwich or ice cream Sunday how ever Scooby often eats in a comical way like sucking it like a vacuum or catching it as Shaggy throws it together. It also seems that in every place there is a kitchen full of food. However you would think that food in an abandoned/run down/haunted building the food probably not be to good.

Another shared trait is there cosplaying abilities. They take the the Bugs Bunny approach of escaping by dressing up in costumes and tricking the monster and distracting him. They have been a number of things from artists, cave people, and shop owners. How the monster is stupid enough to fall for these jokes of these people in this abandoned building but it was really funny. They also used this disguise thing as a ending gag when Scooby puts on the monsters mask scaring Shaggy and the others.

Now why did I love these two well how could someone not like them. They were funny, scared, and strange which makes them really relatable. The mysteries they went on and had a huge hand in solving them were a lot of fun to watch and even with the original show being from the 60's it still translates well today and has many incarnations none of which are better then the original but all of them are pretty good. So Scooby Doo and Shaggy are two of my favorite cartoon characters of all time and I am glad I had them in my childhood.

New Feature

I am going to start a new feature for articles called the Legend of Zelda files.

I will look at one character or enemy in the Legend of Zelda universe and go into

detail about it as well as conduct interviews with it so stay tuned because I will be

getting the first one up as soon as possible

My Thoughts on: The Nostalgia Critic (warning some swearing)

"Hello I'm the Nostalgia Critic I remember it so you don't have to" Is one of my favorite phrases that I have been hearing many times lately. Now I am really looking forward to doing this article because I am a big fan of his and his web site thatguywiththeglasses.com. His reviews are in depth and informative as well as really funny. He has lead me back to watching many shows of my childhood. I am already a huge fan of 90's cartoons and since I have started watching his videos I started Re-watching The Tick, Freakazoid, Gargoyles, and Batman The Animated Series. I have also seen two movies he suggested Tiny Toons How I Spent my Summer Vacation as well as Return to OZ. So in this review of a reviewer I will talk about who he is, the Nostalgia Critic, That Guy With The Glasses, and Chester A Bum since those are his main characters so lets get into the molten pile of bile known as the Nostalgia Critic (only saying that because that how he introduces his feature).

So first a little bit one out host with the most Doug Walker. Doug was born in 1981 and now lives around Chicago (wikipedia great for stalkers haha.) While going through a mid-midlife crisis started to watch the programs and movies from his childhood. Him and his brother thought it was just a phase but ended up doing 5 second movies which was him condensing movies down into 5 seconds and posting them on youtube as well as the Nostalgia Critic and other things he did. How ever the "BIG BAD MILITARY" (aka film studios) thought that his videos are copy write infringement even though as parody they are protected under the fair use clause. So he moved his videos to his newly started web site thatguywiththeglasses.com and that is now the home of all of his videos. So let us look at That Guy With the Glasses.

"Oh hello didn't hear you come in" you have just entered the realm of That Guy. That Guy is dressed as a fancy individual with robe, pipe, and ascot. He is here to answer your stupid questions and he will give you disturbing answers. In this the narrator will ask the random and stupid questions ranging from "I have been trying to start a garden for the past three years, so I can eat more vegetables and green foods... but there's a huge frickin' Fraggle colony underneath my house. Do you have any ideas how to stop the Fraggles from stealing my radishes?" To this question "Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger. Can I take your order?". The first one was from episode one and the second from episode 53. This is always a really funny bit and I have seen all of them more then once. That Guy is a sick and perverted man often talking about killing people and raping and other things. He has also provided a warning about the Hummel Figurine being of the devil as well as its babushka being made of the ass of Clifferd (sp) the big red dog. That Guy has been brought back to life after dying of a heart attack caused by a screamer video. However he made a deal with God and said he could come back to life as long as he promoted the bible ever so often. He was even once replaced by a robotic version of himself by the Disney Cooperation because he was revealing there dark and evil secrets. Over the run of the show he has made several catch phrases for himself. Two of my favorites are "with onions" and "Hamster Jelly" the latter being my signature for my cell phone for a while. So thats That Guy and all I can say is "There is no such thing as a stupid question until you ask it". So lets go from the upper class to the bottom of the barrel with a homeless person.

"OH MY GOD THIS IS THE GREATEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE." Ok its not a movie but it is another feature done by Doug Walker. This is Bum Reviews with Chester A Bum "Hurray!!!" Let us go find our homeless friend who might be living in anything from a fully furnished box to a pie.(he once lived in a pie, a can, and even Pepsi Bottle). He reviews newer movies that are usually the highest grossing for the weekend. He starte every movie bur one by saying it is the greatest movie he has ever seen in his life. He often talks about his drug use and sometimes mistakes movies as drug induced fantasies (Like Speed Racer, Indiana Jones Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls and Hellboy 2). He also gets confused thinking he has lot things or he once was things (like a zombie or losing his legs). With that I am going to close out his section with his closing catch phrase "CHANGE YOU GOT ANY CHANGE AHH COME ON HELP A GUY OUT COME ON CHANGE" I need it to keep posting articles.

So this brings us to the moment you all have been waiting for the Nostalgia Critic. This is Doug's main character as well as the crowd favorite. He does just as his name says he criticizes nostalgic meterial from the 80's and 90's up until 2003 (which is his cut off date). He has done many great Tv Shows like Gargoyles and the Tick but also has had mentions of Freakazoid and Batman the Animated Series (the shows I have started watching since he mentioned them.) He usually does movies that are really bad including the infamous Batman and Robin as well as carp fests The Garbage Pail Kids and The Room (granted that was made in 2003.) He has made a number of really funny running jokes and catch phrases including "Elephant" (which causes the head of the Burger King to appear) "Chuck Norris" (Which causes a picture of Chuck Norris to show up in front of the American Flag with his name in red white and blue.) "Big Lipped Alligator Moment" (which has a big lipped Alligator to appear and something random to happen for no reason including random dancing and other things). There are also catch phrases that are from movies like "I was frozen today" from Suburban Commando actually getting Christopher Lloyd to say it when meting him. (He said it in the movie).

To me the NC's best stuff is his Top 11 list "Because I like to go one step beyond" so here are my Top 11 list of his top 11 lists.
#11: Scary Moments
#10: Saddest Nostalgic Moments
#9: Dirtiest Animaniacs Jokes
#8: Most Nostalgic Cartoons
#7: Under-Rated Nostalgic Movies
#6: Fu*k ups
#5: Christmas specials
#4: Coolest Cleshaes
#3: Villain Songs
#2: Cristipher Walken Moments
#1: Mindfucks

Now I love the Mindfucks one because it really does screw with your head. So many brain melting things happening in one video. From the trippy countdown sequence replacing the numbers with things like balloon piano and love as well as having a weird and crazy videos playing in the back ground. The back ground of the count down screen is one that actually creeps one of my friends out DW. The thing is over all freaky and weird and something I can really relate to.

Once again I love all of Doug's characters and watch him weekly. The Nostalgia Critic is my favorite set of videos but all of them are awesome. Especially when they do the massive crossovers like the TWTG team brawl and Kickassia seeing the Bum and That Guy in something that also has the Nostalgia Critic is just surreal. Now I want to leave you all with this message

"I believe in Santa Christ"

My Thoughts on: Princess Peach vs Princess Zelda

Now I know this is a little bit of a girly topic but these are the two biggest royal names in Nintendo history. Both of them have their own kingdoms with Princess Peach having the Mushroom Kingdom (Drug Addict) and Princess Zelda having Hyrule. Now this is going be like a fight between Zelda and Peach but not like a super smash type fight. I am going to break down categories and then score them on it. Categories will include Ranking in the royal family, Kingdoms, abilities, helpfulness, Heroes, and other. So lets get started with Princess Peach and her rank in the Royal Family.

Royal Rank:
Now there are only two reasons someone is a princess. Either they are under a king and queen or its because it sounds pretty. Well Peach seems to fall under the "because it sounds pretty" category because as far as I know there is not Kind of the Mushroom Kingdom. The whole not having a King would make Peach the Queen. If Peach was queen making all the big decision for her Kingdom then I don't think it would be hard to say that the Kingdom will be screwed. This rank also has a lot to do with smarts and seeing as all she seems to do is invite Mario for cake and get kidnaped she would have no time for ruling things.

So Peaches score for this category: 1 out of 10 Harsh but as a ruler shes worthless. Even in the Epic "There Will Be Brawl" they she was incompetent as canned tuna.

Royal Rank:
Princess Zelda is the other side of the spectrum as far as I am concerned. There is actually a king in Hyrule. As stated in several games and also shown in some. He was even a character in the Legend of Zelda cartoon that was on with Super Mario Bros Super Show. However he seems to be the stupid one in most versions (Wind Waker he seemed smart). Now Zelda has been seen leading her people through crisis even willing to fight for her kingdom. So with a King Zelda is actually a princess not just someone who thinks the name sounds pretty. Zelda is a wise ruler helped with the power of the Triforce of Wisdom.

So for a rank I would have to give her an 8 out of 10. She is a good leader but I don't think she is as good as with war but she is a smart leader who knows what she is doing and is an ok war leader but not great.

Kingdoms:
Peach is the ruler of Mushroom Kingdom which is supposed to be a big place. There isn't much of a problem with crime other then Bowser and his minions. Yes thats bad but it seems Bowser's threat level is down a lot. Seeing as they play sports and go go carting together. However the Mushroom Kingdom isn't perfect but its not in a sad state. The businesses seem to be doing fine especially cake factory and the item shops.
So Mushroom Kingdom gets a 7 out of 10. The lower score is because they don't seem to have a legal system seeing as Bowser is out and Kidnaping the Princess on a regular basis.

Kingdoms:
Zelda is the ruler of Hyrule Kingdom. Now the threats to Hyrule are much bigger then Bowser is. Between Ganondorf and the stupid purple guy constantly trying to take over the world. Zelda has some major problems to take care of. However it is often in a sad state with Ganondorf/Ganon's Minions crawling all over the place attacking people. Often having the capital city taken over. In some games you can see people dying in the streets. So even though I would rather live in Hyrule then the Mushroom Kingdom it seems that the latter choice would be safer.

Ranking 6 out of 10 because the place is just not safe most of the time.

Abilities:
Princess Peach has two special abilities and thats being cute and being the Princess. Now thats really it she doesn't have any magical powers or anything just her good looks her title and her mushy brain. She has convinced two plumbers to save her kingdom that probably involved a lot of "cake".

Ranking: 2 out of 10 is it really that surprising.

Abilities:
Princess Zelda is again on the other side of the spectrum. She has magical abilities, the Triforce of Wisdom, as well being on of the seven sages. She uses her magic to help her kingdom by making wise choices as well as helping with the defense. Zelda is a very powerful woman with mighty magic as well as being agile and strong. When Ganondorf took over Hyrule she used her magic to become Sheik so she can help the people of Hyrule with out detection. While Sheik she changes eye color, body shape, and even her sex. This shows how powerful her magic is as well how weird she must be to want to hide as a dude (seriously thats kind of strange).

Ranking Zelda gets a 10 out of 10. How can she get any less she is a sage enough said really.

Helpfulness:
Do I really have to go into how unhelpful Peach is. She has helped Mario only a little bit. She just continues to invite Mario for "cake" and get kidnaped. She is pointless as anything other then someone to get kidnaped.

Ranking 1 out of 10. No way to make this better.

Helpfulness:
Zelda is a wise leader who has in one way or another helped Link many times. Yes she does often play the Damsel in Distress but she is also helpful before she gets captured. She will teach you things that will prove helpful as well as give you items that will save your butt. She even actively helped you in some games.

Ranking: 8 out of 10. She does often get captured and doesn't do to much work to help but is very helpful.

Heroes:
Peach and Zelda are equal in heroes Mario and Link are both very good heroes saving the kingdoms regularly. They both are very competent knowing how to help everyone and being willing to do it. Mario can't seem to cut through Peach's crap (he should just let Bowser have her). Link on the other hand feels more honor bound to help out. He has a destiny about him and he is willing to go along with it to save his home land. Mario and Link both get high ranking.

Mario 9.5 out of 10 because he should just let Peach stay with Bowser
Link 10 out of 10. He is just that good he is well versed with many weapons and can handle any situation.


Peach: 20.5
Zelda: 41
So Zelda wins this battle and well isn't this obvious out come. Zelda is smarter, better warrior, as well as better looking (am I wrong). Where Peach is stupid and bubble headed using her underling to do the Royal thing so she can have "Cake" with Mario. (yes cake is being used for sex in case you didn't catch it. Its a Yahtzee joke from his review for Super Mario Galexy 2) Now to be honest there are more then one princess Zelda's compared to Princess Peach but Zelda still deserves the Win.

My Thoughts on: Clayface

Ok now that I am all caught up with what I have posted on facebook its time to start posting new articles. So my first new article is about a Batman villain who isn't as well known as the Joker is but he is still very cool. Without further rambling I present to you "My Thought on: Clayface"


Now like I said in my Joker article I am not familiar with the comic books of the Batman series. How ever I am familiar with Clayface from the Batman The Animated Series as well as The Batman and I really thought this character was cool his powers the way he looked and his origin (The Batman first Clayface has the better origin story). His powers were ones that really could be very amazing if he had the ability to use them right. So let us get all yucky as we dive into Clayface.

Lets start with Matt Hagen of Batman the Animated series. Hagen was a has been actor past his prime and horribly disfigured in a car accident. He was approached by a crooked businessman/mobster Roland Daggett who says he can fix Hagen's face if he tests his cream called RenuYou which will allow Hagen to shape his face like clay. Daggett forced Hagen to commit crimes using the drug to look like higher ups including Bruce Wayne. IT turns out the RenuYou is very addictive which leads to Matt breaking into Daggett's compound to steal some of the RenuYou however he is caught and Daggett's man forces Hagen to overdose on the drug thinking it would kill him. However the drug loosens is genetic make up turning him into a blob monster and he takes the name Clayface.

Now what can Clayface do well he can shape shift. He can look like anyone he wants for a period of time. However the coolest part of being a meta-morph is the fact that he can turn his hands into blades and other weapons. The best part of having a liquid like body is being able to stretch, shoot, split, and change it in many ways. Clayface has only a few weaknesses including electricity and freezing. The only other main one would be solvents (like to undo glue and other adhesives.) However unlike the Joker the Batman the Animated Series Clayface is not my favorite my favorite Clayface is from the show "The Batman".

Well let us look at this Clayface. In this show there are two versions ofClayface the first one being my favorite with a better origin then the TAS version. Our first Clayface was once detective Ethan Bennett who is kind of like our two face for this show when it comes to clayface (Two Face was not featured in The Batman because the Dark Knight was being made.) Ethan like Harvey Dent was Bruce Wayne's best friend for a long time before fate changed things for the worse. Now unlike Haggen Bennett was actually transformed into Clayface by the Joker. Yes the Joker made this Clayface which serves as his motivation. This first Clayface will hunt down to the Joker and try to kill him. However when he first discovered he had this power he tried to use it to help him as a cop. However he lost his job because he could not control himself leading him to seek revenge. The relationship between Wayne/Batman and Bennett did cause some problems and also lead to Wayne trying to cure Bennett.

Now like I said Bennett is my favorite version of Clayface however like I also said there is a second Clayface in the series who was originally a ugly, untalented actor who was turned down for a part in a dog food commercial named Basil Karlo.Now his origin is similar to Matt Hagan's in the Animated Sereis being a washed up actor trying to reboot his career using the Clayface Drug. However he intended to become Clayface to use the shap shifting ability to help his career. However he is yet again turned down for the Dog Food part despite his improved face and body. This causes him to snap and attack the people in charge. This caused him to think his career before seeing that being a super villain has made him famous. This Clayface had the bigger body like Matt Hagen did in TAS. Now I haven't seen many episodes that involve this Clayface because I had stopped watching the show because I was usually still in bed.

So Clayface is a good villain with great powers that with the right motives can cause major chaos (If I had them then people should run bwahahahahahahaha I mean ummm LOOK A MONKEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Ethan Bennett is my favorite version of Clayface having a darker story which I like. Matt Hagen is probably the second best having a pretty dark story but kind of lame. He never had much of a motive except for the first episode. As far as I am concerned Clayface is a great character who I would like to seen played in a sequel to the newer Batman Movies to see him made more realistic. So thats Clayface an underated member of the Batman Rouges Gallery. Stay tuned to my next "My Thoughts on" about Princess Zelda and Princess Peach.

My Thoughts on: The Joker

If you don't know who the Joker is then you have been cut off from all forms of pop culture for that last 70 years (which is quite a feat.) He is the self proclaimed "Clown Prince of Crime" and was originally created as a one shot character who premiered in Batman #1 and to be killed off in the second issue. Since his creation the Joker has become one of the most recognizable villains of all time. However I am not really going to talk about the comic book Joker (Because I don't know him to well) I am going to talk about the Joker that we have seen in movies and on tv.

I will discuss the Joker's televised appearances from the beguiling with the Batman tv show (You have to love Adam West.) all the way to the newest Joker from "Under the Red Hood". Then I will talk about the Joker in the 1966 Batman the Movie, 1989's Batman movie, and the Dark Knight in 2008. So lets put a big smile on our faces and get ready for the insanity that is the Joker.

So lets start off with the more comical incarnation of the Joker with "Batman" the 1960's live action TV show. Now in this show the Joker is played by Cesar Romero. Now a lot of people my age don't like the series because its so "Hammy" and "Cheesy" (You know food like) however I do. I liked the different tone of this Batman show compared to the Darker stories we see now. However were are talking about the Joker here not the show. The Joker is played as more of the clown then anything else. The comic part of him shown through more then his insanity. He isn't as dark as normal and for some reason they had Romero put his make up over his mustache. Now this version of the Joker also appeared in Batman the Movie which saw the Joker teaming up with Cat Women, Penguin, and the Riddler but sadly I don't remember to much about this movie so I am going to move on to our next Joker.

In 1968 Filmation had its own shot lived Batman series only lasting one year. In this series the Joker was voiced by Larry Storch. Now the only problem is I never saw this series so I don't know anything about it or about the Joker in it. However I can comment about something from 1972 that made my young brain explode with awesomeness. The New Scooby-Doo Movies yes I am talking about a cross over between Batman and Scooby-Doo. I loved Scooby-Doo as a kid and at that time I also loved Batman so to see both of them together was amazing. In this the Joker and Penguin are running a muck and its up to Batman and Scooby to stop them. Not much else I can say because I haven't seen this since I was a kid I will move on.

It is now time for "Batman" in 1989 and I just want to say I love this movie. The Joker is played by Jack Nicholson (on of my favorite actors.) He is amazing he plays the Joker so well going more for the more insane and dark version of the character. The Joker in this movie is the one who does what he wants and is going to have fun while doing it. From killing someone with a joy buzzer (ok its unrealistic but its freaking awesome) to using his Joker Gas/Chemicals. I just have to say Jack plays insanity well and he really shows it here. the climax of the movie with the Joker forcing Vicky Vale into dancing with him as Batman fights his henchmen. The part right at the end where he tricked Batman and Vicky causing them to fall and hang on a ledge he pulls the fake hand joke and dances on the ledge. Even the Joker's death here is cool there is a gargoyle now hanging by his foot which will cause him to fall to his death. When they look at his body they find a constantly playing recorded laugh. I just love this movie in some aspects even more then the Dark Knight but I will get to that later.

We are now brought to my favorite version of Batman and the Joker. I am talking about the 1992 Batman the Animated Series that brings us the Greatest Joker ever (Yes I mean that to.) Mark Hamill who played Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars movies is voicing the Joker and he is amazing at it. Mark Hamill seems to take all of the aspects of the Joker and put into one package. He is dark, insane, and funny he is not afraid to kill but wants to leave the victim with a smile on their face. He shows his awesomeness by effectively breaking out of Arkham Asylum just because he wants to. Im not kidding he easily broke out because he saw someone ripping off his image. He has hatched schemes like making Joker Fish, using his toxin on fish giving them his face. He then tries to get it patented and going on a rampage once the patent office says you can't patent fish. The Joker gets his own female side kick Harley Quinn who was an origional character for this show who actually went on to her own comic.

Mark Hamill has his own era for the Joker continuing with The New Batman Adventures which ran from 1997 to 1999. This gives the Joker as well as most of the other villains a design change which I really don't like. I posted pictures of both versions of the Joker below the first one is from the Batman The Animated Series and the other from the New Batman Adventures.
However even though the Joker's look changed his character did not. He is still insane dark and funny. This show is two years after the first show and the Joker is broke. Yes he is broke until he comes into some money spending it like crazy until learning that most of it is fake money. Hamill has stared in episodes of Justice League and Justice League Unlimited as well as in a movie for Batman Beyond. Hamill has also voiced the character for Batman: Arkham Asylum. In which the Joker takes over Arkham and Batman needs to stop him. He has also played the Joker in Batman sketches on the show Robot Chicken. Sadly the Hamill era of the Joker will end with the sequel to Batman: Arkham Asylum. So I will also move on to the next incarnation of the Joker.

In 2008 two more versions of the Joker came out however the first one I will talk about will be the Joker from "The Batman" cartoon that aired on kids WB. Now I have to say I liked this show it gave different twists to established characters. The Joker in this show was voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson (Who also voiced Jolee Bindo in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic as well as many other characters.) Now is he as good as Mark Hamill's Joker? Well no but is he really good. The Joker in this show is very much insane and sadistic. He is first seen wearing a Purple and Yellow straight jacket finger less gloves and no shoes. He is more flexible and a better fighter then his other visions actually seeming to know the Monkey style of Kung Fu. He would use kicks jumps and even using his feet like hands. This version of the Joker will actually torture people. He captured a detective and used his "Joker Putty" which changed the detective into the villain Clay Face (Who I will discuss next time.) I liked this character a lot he separated himself from the other incarnations while keeping things the same.

So this brings us to the Dark Knight and the best live action Joker ever. This is Heath Ledger's version of the Joker. Ledger combines parts of the other Joker''s as well as keeping his version origional. The only thing about his version is I did not see the "Clown" in this Joker besides his appearance. This Joker is dark, twisted, violent, and an anarchist. He was just screwing with things not really trying to get anything power just to screw with people. He did do somethings in a funny way like dressing up as a female nurse in order to get in the Hospital. Now Ledger's Joker is probably the most famous or most recognizable now a days. Now his Joker is better then Jack's but I think I like the 1989 Batman movie a little better then this one. Don't get me wrong the movie is amazing. Its just to long with to much dialog but the worst part of the newer Batman movies is Christian Bale. I know everyone says this but I hate that voice even worse he uses it in Terminator Salvation and even Adrien Brody used it in the Preditors movie and it just pisses me off. So thats all I have on Dark Knight I know its the epic Batman movie that made a large amount of money. Ledger even won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor even though it was sadly after he died.

Now there are two more versions of the Joker in animation one of witch I will not mention because the show sucks and I can't stand the sound of the Joker's voice (HE HAS A BRITISH ACCENT ITS NOT RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) However I will talk about the newest Joker voice who I hope takes over after Hamill is done. The new Joker is voiced by John DiMaggio (Futurama's Bender, Marcus Fenix, Mr. Barkin, Jugernaught in the X-Men Legend games, as well as Schnitzel.) So hey he is a busy man when it comes to voice acting. Now he can add the Joker to his credit in the movie "Under the Red Hood". I really like John as the Joker the voice just sounds right I can even hear Mark Hamill and Heath Ledger's version in his character. This Joker is insane, sadistic, treacherous, and funny. He does all of these things and does it well. Even though Hamill is the best John comes in second. His appearance is much darker and the opening of the movie starts with him beating Robin (the Jason Todd version) to death with a crow bar. Asking him which hurts more as he beats him. This is a great introduction for John's version of the Joker. He is dark stylish and isn't afraid to do things how ever he wants to do things. If you haven't seen this movie watch it. The movie is dark well written and just awesome.

So those are my thoughts on the Joker. He is hands down one of the best fictional villains in history. He is also my favorite character out of the DC universe. He has a way to scare the crap out of you as well as keep you entertained. All of the different Jokers are both origional as well as simular to the rest and I just love him. I hope to see the Joker on screen for a very long time.

My Thoughts on: The Syfy Channel

I know this is strange but I am not doing a video game this time. I decided to discuss my thoughts on the SyFy channel. I will talk about the name, TV shows, and Movies. Now let me get this out in the open I love the SyFy channel it brought me my favorite TV show as well as mini series but the channel has two sides to it. What I mean by that is when it does something well it does it really well but when they suck it up well there is no end to the suckage. So lets get into "My Thoughts on: The Syfy Channel".

Now the SyFy channel recently changed its name from ScFi which really seemed to upset people so lets look at the change and see why anyone should even care. Scfi as a name is very straight to the point telling us what type of programming is shown on the channel. In case your well stupid or just never thought about it Scfi stands for Science Fiction and that is the programming they have on the channel even though not all of it is fictional. However the name SyFy doesn't seem to stand for anything but the name is pronounced the same. Now they gave some bringing people together bull crap but I think the real reason for the change was they were getting into reality shows like Ghost Hunters and Destination Truth which are not science fiction shows but more pseudo science (As in not a proven science but there are things supporting it. Trust me the paranormal stuff I know thats not fiction.) So to me changing the name so it sounds the same but takes the fiction out of the name makes sense. So I actually like the name change I know there are people out there who don't and they are entitled to there opinions. So lets talk about the television programming.

SyFy has some really good TV shows between the scripted to the real they are rather good. I am going to start with the reality shows that are featured on SyFy. Now my favorite show is Ghost Hunters and it has been for many years actually getting me interested in the paranormal. The interest in the Paranormal caused by this show lead me to joining Paranormal Research of Illinois and doing something that I love doing. Ghost Hunters started a trend for SyFy with investigation shows where a team investigate other aspects of the paranormal like mythical creatures and local legends, Internet Videos, and even UFO's (but that show isn't on any more.) The success of Ghost Hunters lead to a couple spin off shows Ghost Hunter International and Ghost Hunters Academy. Now to set the record straight the evidence they get in the show is real however the show is made for entertainment and you can see that in the reactions to every little noise. The only one of our members I have heard swear while investigating is probably Mikey but thats just normal conversation (Haha love ya Mikey).

When it comes to scripted television SyFy succeeds as well. It shows like eUREKA, Warehouse 13, and Estate of Panic (It didn't last long but I liked it). However I haven't watched many of these except for Estate of Panic. However the scripted programming that I absolutely loved was the mini series Tin Man.

I am going to talk a lot about Tin Man due to its awesomeness. Now Tin Man is a re-imagining of the classic The Wonderful Wizard of OZ. Taking the story and giving it a darker twist to it. Tin Man is the story of DG a waitress who after an attack by the Long Coats (Who are the personal army of the evil sorceress Azkadellia is transported to the Outer Zone (OZ). While there she meets some interesting characters first of witch is Glitch (Played by Allen Cummings.) Glitch takes the role of the Scarecrow this time around as Azkadellia had his brain removed (Due to the advancements of other dimension science people can live without a brain). The brain removal is actually kind of funny because Glitch now has a zipper on the top of his head and his synapses doesn't fire right. The next character we meet is Wyatt Cain (played by Neal McDonough) who is a "Tin Man" (Tin Man is the name for the cops of central city). When we first meet Cain he is locked in a tin suit and forced to watch his family (Wife and Son) being beaten and taken away in an endless loop. When asked how long he has been in there he points to a rather tall tree and says "Since that was a sapling ". Kain is often told "Have a heart Tin Man" which is a throwback to the origional Tin Man. Next we met Raw (played by Raoul Trujillo) who is our cowardly Lion like character. Raw looks like a cave man with long messy hair and waring fur. Raw is cowardly because his people are being hunted by Azkadellia because they have the ability to read minds and see the future.

So we have introduced our main characters so lets get into the story a little bit. Azkadellia is looking for the Emerald of the Eclipse so she can harness the power of the eclipse to become very powerful. She finds out that there is someone who can stop her in the other dimension so she has her long coats awaken a traveling storm to go destroy this "light". All of this leads to DG (DG is a throw back to Dorothy Gale) getting to the OZ. through out the story we will see creatively designed locations and interesting characters like the Mystic Man who was once considered a Wizard and even Tutor (Tutor has the ability to turn into a dog that resembles Toto). Azkadellia's and DG's pasts are reveled showing that they are sisters and the daughters of the Queen of OZ. One time when out exploring DG and Azkadellia enter a cave because they were hearing a girls distressed voice calling for help. However when they go deeper into the cave they find a green skinned witch locked in a chamber (Who could that be referencing). As long as the sisters held each others hands they will be protected by the light (some sort of magic) but when the witch attacks DG gets scared and runs off leaving Azkadellia to be possessed by the evil witch. This leads to the evil person Azkadellia is today. So now DG and the gang have to both stop and save Azkadellia before she lets the witch take over OZ.

I have to say I love this mini series (it also helps that I love the Wizard of Oz.) I like seeing things given a darker twist like what they did with Majora's Mask. The characters are interesting and easy to relate to. The story is amazing I love it a lot. The design of the locations are very creative and well done. The only downside is some of the acting isn't the best and the CGI used in some scenes aren't very realistic (Not as bad as most of the SyFy CGI though) So that is the epic story of Tin Man which was nominated for an Emmy and is also out on DVD I would suggest looking it up at a store or on Netflix its worth the watch. I just watched episode one last night and ming watch episode two some time today.

So this brings us to the SyFy Channel origional movies and boy do these suck. This is where SyFy fails the hardest with terrible writing, bad acting, Stupid ideas, and incredibly unconvincing CGI. Some of the movies include Mammoth in which aliens bring a wolly mammoth back to life so it can wreak havoc or something like that. There are also Transmorphers I wonder what they are ripping off here. How about "Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus I think this was going through their heads when writing one scene.

Stupid Writer: "Hey guys. Sharks can jump out of the water right?"

Stupid Guys: "Yes Stupid Writer they can."

Stupid Writer: "How high can they jump?"

Stupid guys: "Oh we don't really know."

Stupid Writer: "Well do you Stupid Guys think one could jump into the air and take down some sort of air craft that is high in the sky?"

Stupid Guys: "What a stupid question of course they can everyone knows that."

Stupid Writer: "Duh I know that sorry to ask such a stupidly obvious question."

Stupid Guys: "Oh its ok Stupid Writer don't feel bad about it."

In my opinion the Stupid Writer and the Stupid Guys should feel very bad about it. Thats not possible even with a Maga Shark. Now this isn't rare plenty if not all of the SyFy channels movies suck. Unless they some how get a hold of a good one someone else made then its ok.

So when it comes down to it I have a some what love hate relationship with the SyFy channel. I love their TV shows and I try to catch there mini series when they have one that I think looks good. However I hate their movies the constant crap they put on the channel and call it movies just needs to stop. Its cool that you are showing movies that you won't see anywhere else but don't just give any idiot with a movie a time slot. So there you have it ladies and gentle men My Thoughts on: The SyFy Channel.

My Thoughts On: The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess

Now in my reviews of Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask I mentioned reasons why Twilight Princess disappointed me. Now Twilight Princess is the only Zelda game that currently out on the Wii and in my opinion the hype overtook the game. The graphics looked good and the game was made to seem so epic in scope. However for me the game did not live up to my expectations. Now to the games credit the story is great and the characters are really cool. Minda is one of the coolest new characters I have seen in years. She is coo,l in control, and is willing to fight. Minda is kind of creepy but in all of the right ways.

However the game has many flaws that I need to address and it is going to start with the items. Now my problem with the games items is that most of them stop being useful as soon as you leave the temple you get them in. The Dominion Rod is a great example of that. After leaving the temple of Time it instantly looses power and you have to restore its power just to move a cannon so you can get to the city in the sky. Then once up there its pointless again.

Another item that is such a disappointment is the Spinner. This really disappointed me because it was made to be so epic in the temple and that boss battle is as for as I am concerned the best one in the game. Using the Spinner to break its bones and basically playing Link Pinball was creative and fun. Sadly the Spinner is instantly useless as soon as you leave the temple. Now you do use it a couple times in the City in the Sky but as a whole its useless. The Spinner would be cool if you could use it as a form of transportation almost like the bunny hood if you could use it to speed your self up when you can't use your horse.

Then the Gale Boomerang is another rather disappointing item. Even though you still have use for it outside of the temple it just seems strange. It doesn't do anything any other Boomerang that has been used in other games it stuns enemies and brings you items. Once you get the bow and arrow you don't need to stun enemies and the claw shot will bring you items. Also it almost seems mean. There is a fairy living in that boomerang and your throwing it around like that I am sure it doesn't feel good. So those are the items that are disappointing but not the end of my complaints.

The fact that they ripped of a couple ideas from Ocarina of Time kind of bugged me. Lets start with the freezing of Zora's Domain for the second freaking time. Now this annoyed me is there nothing else you can do to fish people but freeze them. I mean if you super heated the water and boiled them that might seem like a bigger message then look their frozen. Ganondorf could have also stolen the water. It would have a simular effect as freezing it but might actually cause more problems for the whole land. However unlike Ocarina of Time we do get closure on the fact that they do get thawed out. Which is good but raises some continuity issues between Twilight Princess and Majora's Mask. Unless the Gorons in Termina and the Gorons in Hyrule are completely different then the Goron in the super heated rock should have drowned in Zora Domain.

The next theft from Ocarina of Time are hunting the four ghosts in the Arbiters Grounds. Now this is exactly like hunting the four ghosts in the Forest Temple in Ocarina of Time. This also ticks me off because I thought that part of the Forest Temple was fun and creative but they ruined it by ripping it off for this game.

Now this one rip off seems pretty origional but if you look at it you will
see exact similarities to Ocarina of Time. This is the Poe Soul side quest. I know your asking "Andy you incredibly sexy man beast how is this a rip off?" Well this is a rip off of the Gold Skulantula side quest in Ocarina of Time. The only differences are a couple changes. Replace the wealthy family with Jovanie and his cat, Gold Skulantulas with Poes, and the different rewards for one big one. Now I know you might think that is enough to prevent it from being a rip off well its not. Even the back story is simular the people in question were greedy and were cursed turning them into Skulantulas or a gold statue. So you have to go around and kill the Gold Skulantulas or poes and take the tokens or souls from the enemy. Now this is a rip off that they just shamelessly tried to hide but I caught them in the act.

Other then what I listed above I also have problems with one of the temples. The City in the Sky is annoying. I just don't like it the fact that its so easy to get lost and die the annoying Occoro running around. And requiring them just to get around is annoying. The Double Claw Shot is awesome I will say that. The boss to this temple is boring and uninspired (Oh boy a dragon never fought one of those before). Another temple that I dislike is the Water Temple. Its annoying and just as frustrating as the one in Ocarina of Time. However like the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time I do love the boss here. It is huge can captures the epicness that this game was striving for. Sure part of it is a rip off of Wind Waker but over all this boss is a lot of fun. Fighting in this giant underwater arena with an awesome looking eel like boss was just fun and it would call it a fish boss done right (Sorry Majora's Mask but this boss is better then your stupid fish)

I also want to address the graphics and character design. Now the graphics are really good for this game I like them however the character design annoyed me. First off Link looks like a girl in this game really not showing him as a manly character in design. Which is hard enough to do with a boy wearing tights but the face and the hair just made him look like a girl its not a big complaint but it is one. The next one was with the Shaman in his daughter falls under the same line with Link. The Shaman looks like a girl and the Daughter looks like a boy (However at her age that isn't unusual in real life.) It was confusing and took me a while to figure out if the Shaman was male or female. Another character that was designed strangely was the younger girl of the Ordon children (I don't have there names memorized) she looks kind of like a future whore. She already looks like a whore in the game and it just makes me uncomfortable. Then let us get to the freaks who are running the lake Hylia attractions. These guys are so weird the way they are dressed looks like someone lost a trunk of circus clothing that was meant for the girls. They are so creepy and the thin one looks the creepiest its just scary and I don't like them.

Now the last design flaw that I have to talk about would be the Occoro. Now the two of them you see most of the game are weird yes but not that bad until you meet the lot of them. Seeing these chicken people together is just wrong especially when they get the great lost race of sky people back story. This makes them creeper and then wonders why these freaks have so much power. Its just unsettling to me they are annoying and creepy making me dislike them.

Now is this game good? Well the answer is yes. Is the game as good as they were making it seem? No. I can't claim this is one of my favorite Zelda games or even on of my favorite games in general. Yes it has its good parts but it has bad parts as well. So those are my thoughts on The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess.
