    Very nice! What particularly strikes me is the coloring. Do you feel comfortable moving on to pen and inks, employing harsher colors just yet? Because right now they're really popping.

    Not yet but maybe I'll use inks when I get to the Johto/Gen II ones. May need some more practice elsewhere first though.

  2. Got burnt out devising full-landscape drawings for Gen I (not helped, admittedly, by Kanto's fairly bland geography). Plus, I was eager to depict the key characters of Gen I and to get on to future gens, so I put away my previous sketchbook and drew all 151 original Pokemon and 24 key Kanto characters drawn to scale on 18 x 24 sheets (1 in = 1 ft). For elongate Pokemon like Weedle and Onix, I interpreted their official height as "length" and the character heights are guesses on my part. I should also note that I only depicted sexual dimorphism in Pokemon in cases where it was exceptionally obvious (rather than those where slightly longer fangs indicate males or slightly longer hair indicates females) and that the character models are based different versions of them across the original Gen I games, their Gen III and Gen VII remakes, and the anime, rather than all adhering to one version of Gen I or Kanto. (I realized later that I forgot Bill, but hopefully no one misses him too much.)

    Here are the first 51 Pokemon across four sheets (of fourteen total), along with some of the key characters, depicted next to or with their most consistent or appropriate ace. I'm hoping to post to the next five sheets on Wednesday and the last five on Friday or over the weekend.

    Anyway, enjoy! @Missy@Pan-dub@Molly@dc20willsave@Donomark@slothian@KnightWing

  3. I'm a few days late, but we'd be remiss not to have a thread for her as well.

    I was first made of her through GoldenEye (still one of the best Bond songs) and there's a lot of her catalog I'm not familiar with, but she was a musical legend by any standard.

    They're sex workers.

    Maybe not virginal but sisters, not prostitutes.

    While I’m tempted to say “it’s a Disney film, therefore there’s no sex in it (apart from the kind offscreen that produces children)”, I’m leaning towards sex workers yet not prostitutes — something more along the lines of strippers, erotic dancers, kiss-o-grams, or waitresses at Hooters.

    Blazing Saddles vs Galaxy Quest

    School of Rock vs LOTR: Return of the King

    Superman (1978) vs Gravity

    Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker vs Spiderman: Into the Spider-verse

    The Terminator vs 2001: A Space Odyssey

    Terminator 2: Judgment Day vs Back to the Future

    Quest, King, Superman, Return of the Joker, Terminator, and Back to the Future. Most of those are close calls though (at least for me).

    Re: Christian's assertion that Gaston is the only villain to have two songs, Governor Radcliffe has "Mine, Mine, Mine" and "Savages", whereas Ratigan has "The World's Greatest Criminal Mind" and "Goodbye, So Soon"

    You’re right 😖 I remembered Ratcliffe shortly after our recording. Frollo also has major singing parts in The Bells of Notre-Dame and In Here/Out There, plus Hellfire.

    ooooooooooooohhhhhh.........

    I'm going to say The Mummy on the basis it's almost a live-action cartoon that captured lightning in a bottle. Aladdin is a favourite Disney movie but I'm going to have to hear POYW to confirm why it should be, objectively, considered top tier.

    Enjoy! It’s our longest one yet but we had a blast.

  8. Great episode as always! Nightmare 2 is actually the only Elm Street I've seen much footage of. The shower scene with the coach was playing on in the background at a Halloween party I went to once.

    I wouldn't call Robert Englund -- who's about 5'10", if the internet is to be believed -- a "comically tiny person" though (I'm 6'7", so believe me, I'm in a position to judge).

  9. I’ll second Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom. Unfortunately, you’ll probably need to cover The Help for her earlier career/breakout role. For a pick between those two, either Fences or Widows.

    I’ve heard good things about The Woman King but also that it’s more of an ensemble than a Davis-central film (by her own request).
