You know... I really do believe in the theory that it's possible Duck descended from a martian. -shifty eyes- He kinda looks like one without the bill. xD
Rev is so heart shatteringly adorable when he loses his powers. I mean, its really tragic, but its like "OMG LET ME HUG YOU DDDD:"
Oh, and one things that generally annoyed me with... pretty much every villain on the show ever.
The MANIACAL LAUGHTER. OMG. SHUT UP. They all do it, too. And I don't see what's so laughable, anyway.
I KNOW. xD I love it. You just want to rip him out of the TV. Hehe.
...Maniacal laughter, huh? -cough- Yup. And I'd never dream of laughing maniacally over nothing. Ridiculous, I tell you. RIDICULOUS. -shifty eyes-
XD Okay, to be quite honest, it is utterly enlightening to just throw your head back and laugh evilly over nothing. I cannot even begin to describe it. ...Although perhaps the zooming out and echoing is a little much. Yeah. Hehe. -is laughing evilly- GAH. X3
Oh, I've had plenty of fun experiences with just bursting out laughing almost over practically nothing. Not necessarily evilly, but still.
OK, this should be in "What's The Stupidest Thing You've Ever Done", but I'll post it here anyhow.
OK, one time in the tenth grade, I wasn't really paying attention to my teacher in Spanish class. Something REALLY funny had happened at lunch, right before this class. Basically, this girl stole this guy's sandwich and ran off with it. And the guy gets up, says "GIMME BACK MY SAMMICH!" in this RIDICULOUS voice, runs off to get it and slips on a puddle and does a BACK FLIP and falls down, making this ridiculous "WHHHOOAAA!!" shout all the way. It was mainly a "you had to be there" moment, but it was farking hilarious nonetheless.
Anyway, the next period I couldn't stop thinking about that. My teacher was talking about something that wasn't related to Spanish, so I decided to tune out and not listen and just think about that AMAZING incident. Then all the sudden I hear everyone gasp, and that just reminds me of how the girls around that guy gasped when he tripped, so I just started LAUGHING aloud uncontrollably. After about 30 seconds or so I realize everyone is looking at me like I'm a horrible person.
So I quickly ask my friend what just happened, still laughing, and she said quietly that the teacher just announced one of my classmates got in a car accident and is recovering in the hospital, and that the moment after she said that I started laughing hysterically.
So then I think about how horrible THAT is, and that made CONTINUE laughing even HARDER. I seriously almost hyperventilated. I even fell out of my desk red faced about 3 minutes into it. It went on for way too long.
Needless to say I looked pretty bad after that. 3:
So I come back after a hiatus from these boards only to read this post of yours D_W. Thanks for making my day, you got a giggle out of me and that's something at 5am!
It's not so much the evil laughter (even though it IS quite old and stupid now) as how FREQUENTLY they do it. When my main fandom was LU, these scenes annoyed me a little but I could live with them. However, I recently got into another series, in which there was this particular villain that ALL he did was LAUGHING every other SENTENCE. I wanted to get into the cartoon and slap him across the face until he'd bleed, that's how much he made my blood boil. And to be honest, IMHO when a character has that effect on you, it means something in the char development went wrong, because a villain is supposed to be irritating for other reasons, not the fact he's got the epic laughter of doom.
So now, everytime I hear that trademark villain laghter, I feel like throwing a shoe at the tv.
But back to Melvin. I cannot say I liked him. All of the characters have traits of their descendants, that's obvious, but while the Loonatics have a personality of their OWN, Melvin looked like a redesigned version of Marvin to me. But then again, I may be just disappointed simply because since I'm a huge Marvin fan, I was expecting a lot more from his descendant.
Haha, no problem! =D My epic screw ups tend to make marvelous anecdotes at times. Admittedly, I still laugh when I think back to that incident. I've never had so many people tell me I was going to hell in such a short span of time. =D
And concerning the overuse of the evil laughter, well, my sentiments exactly. When they use that laughter to the extent that they do it just gives the villains a big huge "GENERIC" stamp on their persona. And that's the kind of things that the LU opposers would jump all over when scrutinizing the show, anyway. It just doesn't help with anything ever.
I WANNA SEE A VILLAIN THAT DOESN'T LAUGH EVILLY BUT INSTEAD DOES A GLEEFUL FACE LIKE THIS:
n__n
AND SAYS, "THAT REALLY TICKLES ME PINK. I IZ SOOOO HAPPY RIGHT NOW"
AND JUST CONTINUES TO SMILE IN THAT CUTE CHIBI WAY. 8D
*takes Caps Lock off*
Well... there's the awesome Danny Phantom episode where Paulina is possessed by some Hello Kitty sorta ghost thing... and she just keeps smiling and saying something about "lucious" and everyone loves her and... yeah. -shifty eyes-
:x Every villain needs a signature laugh. Mine goes "BLAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA-+BELCH+ ....HA!" >.> I liked Marvin since before even Duck Dodgers came along. xD He's just...too fun.
