    I'm not worried about it...maybe... :P So you kept yours alive? Maybe you're a natural nurturer? :) Was there some kind of trick I just kept missing? I need to go buy one on eBay now...

    Ahh, parents. I remember when mine were afraid to buy -anything- online. Well, let alone how long it took us to get Internet...

    I wouldn't be too worried about the Tamagotchi thing, at least in my case. I managed to keep majority of mine alive, even if most of them either turned into a fridge-like chicken, or a... submarine crossed with a squid... yeah :I

    My parents are as well, but just in this case, we were lucky :P Or rather, I was. After that, it took a long time before we got a proper computer.

    I wonder if Tamagotchi rearing carries over into parenting. I hope not, if so, I'm in trouble. If I ever have children of course. :P I swear Furbies are evil. Mine kept talking to me in the middle of the night. "Woah! I'm scared. Hehe that tickles!" All night. I kept pulling the blankets over my head and tried to drown out the horror...

    You must play Oregon Trail! It's a classic. You're lucky, my parents were always slow to adopt technology. :(

    They were worst early on, since they were babies and woke up all the time. And no, no furbies :P

    I never tried Oregon Trail. My dad knew a guy with tech, so when we had a computer, he got us a bunch of games on floppies :3

    Not per se. ;3

    I don't know why those things were programmed to die during the night. Don't they realize we had to sleep eventually?! I even woke up one night to feed it at 1AM. The thing still died in the morning... Or how about Furbys? Did you have one of those? :)

    I never played many games on floppy disk. My family didn't have a computer for a loooooooong time. My school library only had Oregon Trail, which I was awesome at. If I do say so myself. :D

    You got a problem with being a minx? ;3

    And yeah, I know how you mean. I hated waking up and finding out my Tamagotchi had died. That's why I loved Tamagotchi for the gameboy xD

    I personally loved floppy disks. I played Vikings with it :3 And Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Island!

    So now I'm a minx huh? :3

    Ack! Tamagotchi! Oh how I loved Tamagotchi. My little creature always died on me though. I felt horrible each time I restarted it. Like I was personally to blame for its death. It was traumatic I tell you! :(

    Oh floppy disks, so glad they are gone. You know, I can't even remember the last time I've used a CD, or really any physical media. Hmm...

    Yeah, I know you are, you minx you :P I do like some romantic comedies, but they're sort of a hit and miss thing with me.

    Space Jam was -awesome-. Don't feel old! Hell, I'm from 1990, I'm 22 years old :P I remember when I had only heard of Pokémon from a friend saying 'it's something like Tamagotchi'. I had a computer that used -floppy disks- for god's sake!

    Lol, glad I could give you a laugh then. :3

    I know what you mean. I'm simply messing with you. But, if you need comedy....they always have "romantic-comedies". :P

    Oh my gosh, I haven't thought of Space Jam in a long time! That's a blast from the past. Wow, makes me feel old. >_>

    Hahah xD I love the 'Paint me like one of your french girls' meme.

    And what I mean is that, for example in Thor, romance is a part of it. Sure, it's a huge part of the -motivation-, which I have no issue with, though it can get annoying at times, but my issue is when the movie focuses almost SOLELY on that, and pushes everything aside for it. I gots to have me some comedy and action, you know?

    And yeah, most danish movies don't really have effects... at all. It's all about acting and things actually happening, though I do agree with you. I love animation when it's all-out animation (Though I can't say I hate things like Space Jam, since it's in a group of it's own).

    Haha, we'll beat the sensibleness right out of Allan. xD

    Uh huh...Titanic actually is pretty decent. Not one of my favorites, but not bad. Girlfriends do not have cooties....Those are saved explicitly for men, duh. :P

    Speaking of Titanic:
    Spoiler:


    So as long as romance isn't the central "core" of the movie, you're good? Kind of odd, considering most movie use romance as the central motivator for, well, everything. :3

    I'm kind of tired of animation to be honest. I kind of prefer practical effects. I think if I wanted to watch a story with heavy animation, I would go watch Pixar or play a game. Don't get me wrong, I think animation has its place. But, when we start to de-age people for roles and motion capture them for the littlest of things, it kind of grows wearisome. Long live practical effects!

    I know! I really like it, even if Allan's first thoughts about this whole thing was "Group together, take on the enemy and survive" xD

    I watched it 'cause I heard it was good! It's not like I have a girlfriend or anything :P I hear they have cooties.

    And yes, it does have some romance, and I don't mind THAT! Most movies require a romantic aspect to be more of an all-around, more realistic thing, I'm just not a fan of movies built AROUND that aspect :P

    Production value... ah... mrh. Well, no, I wouldn't say so. As far as I can see, every other American movie have some kind of animation to it, or some kind of supernatural/fantasy kind of plot. Like The Waterboy, that even has animation and stuff, plus, American movies can rely on the various parts of America, since there's a wide array of different people there.

    In Denmark, we do have different kind of people, but they're more like... different shades of the same, since we live so close to each other here. We've got the Copenhagen-type people who're quick talkers, smart-mouthed, sometimes streetwise, sometimes just punks.
    And we have the farmers over to the left. The people who value good ol' hard work and a nice beer at the end of a long day at work. Simple people, really.

    But like 90% of danish movies don't do animations at ALL. Lately, there have been some pretty good ones coming out, but again, they're all incredibly grounded. No aliens, no magic, no extraterrestrial stuff. It usually revolves around regular people getting into crazy situations, or sometimes, regular people in regular situations :P

    Lol, this RP is quite literally "insane". It stills amazes me that it works on some fundamental level. It's like chaos has been unleashed and I love it. xD

    You've only ever watched Titanic? You need more chick flicks in your life. So....why did you watch Titanic? Hmm?!?!?! :P

    Thor is a pretty good movie and there is *shocker* a little romance. :3

    So another question about Danish films...How are the production values? Are they comparable to the ones here in the States? :)

    Oh dear. Guess we're going to be playing chase for a short bit XD

    And hey, there's a reason I haven't watched it yet. And that I don't plan on watching it :P Only chick flick I ever liked was Titanic, so I'm good, thanks. I'll stick to Thor. Which reminds me, I gotta get a hold of that...

    Well in keeping with the Smash Brothers standard, I only fired one. But, it's controllable by me so hopefully I can still hit you. I would love for there to be a fight in the water. It would be really neat. Especially since you could have a neat hand to hand battle with water splashing all around. :P

    I've heard of the green butchers. It sounds morbid... You know you love your romantic comedies. Go watch your chick flick and enjoy it. :P
