muscles like this! posted:They're bringing back Tiny Toons and for some reason they've decided that in this version Buster and Babs are related. That's just such an odd change. "No relation" is the closest thing they have to a catchphrase. Next you're going to tell me Yakko, Wacko and Dot aren't related in their reboot.

Phylodox posted:I mean, Gargoyles is old, but it came out at, like, the perfect time to create a weird, horny Internet fan base. It coincided perfectly with the beginning of widespread online fan fiction posting and forum discussion. I remember being impressed by the logical gymnastics one fanfic writer used to write a Gargoyles/Deep Space Nine crossover. Not as wild as you'd think given the jokes about how Gargoyles is half a TNG cast reunion and DS9 had multiple time travel episodes and a flat out AU Detective No. 27 posted:Paul Rugg, creator of Tiny Toons, got weirded out when it was revealed that they were twins in the reboot.

Not a native speaker - did "No relation" mean "no relation to the other famous toon who has Bunny as a surname" or "we're not related"? Because the latter version is how the German dub had it.

It meant the latter; they were not related to each other.

Macdeo Lurjtux posted:They say No Relation as in no relation to Bugs. I always thought it was said in relation to each other, considering the context is "HI, I'm Buster Bunny/And I'm Babs Bunny/... No relation (said unanimously)". As in, they were so used to people asking if they were related that they say it as a knee-jerk reaction. Then again, I have a last name that's a variant of another common name, and I spell it automatically when people ask what my name is because I was asked so often how it's spelled.

There was a whole episode about Buster taking Babs to prom (and them getting revenge on Montana Max for standing up Elmyra) in the original run, so yeah, I doubt they were related to each other. The No Relation thing was because they were at least occasionally presented as a couple but they had the same last name.

I was curious, because the last time I saw it I was an ignorant 14-year-old or so and I remember not really understanding most of what was going on. Here's an article I found from a few years after its release that ruthlessly eviscerates it. Tl;dr: the problem is that every non-white character is depicted as either as idiots or terrorists, and the white people are all good. Ultimately the message of the movie is "black people are better off on their own as tribal hunter-gatherers; they cannot handle modern society."

Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies solved the orange rhyme problem years ago: Oh flip, the light is turning orange Coat ripped when I caught it in the door hinge Also, I had a King of the Hill repeat on again and it did remind me that the hippie backlash was still going strong into the 90s and early 2000s (and sad to say a stupid teenager bought into that stuff...) but looking back at how people were mad at hippies it just reminds me again how reactive we are as a society. It was the episode where they are camping and the hippies take over the national park and they are just lazy and scheming.
