Cartoon Crushes?

[Emma]

I'm renewing this thread because the last one was fun and I miss it.

So...you know the rules. Got any crushes on cartoon characters? :-*

EDIT: Alright, despite being here a while, I'm still a bit dumb when it comes to rules. Let me throw my hat into this discussion...hmm, cartoon crushes...cartoon crushes. To be perfectly honest, I don't really have "crushes" in a romantic sense. Mostly I just turn characters I like into brother or father figures. If I wasn't so grossly repulsed by badfic, I'd be the type of person to read/write one of those awful long-lost daughter self insert stories. Then I'd promptly kill myself, but that is not the point...

Truth be told, there are only two cartoon characters I've ever had a normal crush on: Sideshow Bob (Simpsons) and Clive Winslett (Wild Arms 3). Although the latter is technically a game character, he does appear in a traditional anime opening segment, so I'm going to say he counts. ::)

What can I say...I like intellectuals. And Kelsey Grammer's voice. :bloocross:

I think you were supposed to start off with the responding of the topic. Crushes, well, I really don't have many of them. I did, however, have one -- and that would be Jessica Rabbit. :-* During the first scene I see with Jessica on "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", I smile pretty big while performing.

[BlooCheese]

I got a little one on Mac and a little one on Kyle from South Park.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

Do animes count?

I mean they are technically cartoons.

I think they're cartoons. To me, a cartoon is anything that's animated.

Ack! You're right! Excuse my dumbness. *edits first post*

[GrimTheLost]

Let's see, Frankie (of course), Lola Bunny, Mary Jane Watson, Tank Girl, Leela, Penelope Pitstop, Sailor Venus, Misty, Devi from the "I Feel Sick" comics, Babs Bunny, and many others that aren't coming to me.

[Cassini90125]

Frankie, of course. :-*

Prior to Frankie, I was wild about Daphne from "Scooby-Doo", and there were a couple of minor interests here and there, but that's about it.

[FostersFriend]

As a younger child I had a crush on almost any animated gal in cartoons. I use to like them so much, I would always defend them at school when someone says something about about her lol:P

Well some of my personal faves are:

Daphne -Scooby-Doo

Misty - Pokemon

Mimi - Digimon

Bloo-Although he's a guy I just think he's soooo cute I don't 'love' him in a romantic sense sorry Bloo ha! 8D

Frankie - I just think she'd make a cool friend :)

And some others I can't think of. :frankiesmile:

Yes! I love Tank Girl. Seriously... I'm straight and I don't think I really have a CRUSH on her, I just... love her. She's amazing.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

I've watched cartoons all my life and I'm not ashamed to say i've had plenty of crushes on toon characters. let's be honest, some of them are down right hot and people naturally feel different ways about different toons.

Just be warned, my list might be a tad long:

Frankie - Everyone knows this about me already :frankiesmile:

Fifi Le Pume - SOOOO dam cute, i never realized how much I liked her until I got older.

Gadget Hackwrench - One of my first toon crushes, easily see why Chip and Dale go gaga over her.

Bunnie Rabbot - That southern accent is down right adorable, I always thought she was such a sweetheart.

Misty - my first anime crush and one I still hold strongly today. Her appearance, her personality, there's just SO much to like about her.

Pilot Jenny - Bucky O hare character. Downright sexy and very different from other toon females, she was a very kind and interesting character.

Kari - Hottest Digidestined I ever saw and by far the sweetest, I'd date her in a digi-heartbeat.

Mahoro - Such a sweet and loving anime android, even if the anime is loaded with fanservice, I can't change how much I adore and love this character.

Princess Sally - Another Sonic cutie I had to mention. I think she's one of the most beautiful drawn characters in animation, always liked her, always.

Starfire - Titans made her look amazing, and so darn cute! I love her relationship with Robin and she's always been my favorite Teen Titan to date.

Kei - From dirty pair flash. Its weird but she's nothing like me, yet she's always been one of my biggest cartoon crushes. Very fiesty, very strong, and very cute.

Nadia - from the anime of the same name. It may sound weird for a white guy to be attracted to a toon black female, but its true. I think Nadia is a very attractive character and despite her temper, she's definitely a crush of mine.

Sailor Jupiter - One of my earliest crushes. I always felt Sailor Moon shafted Jupiter and never gave her enough air time, or centered episodes. i think she's a sweet, caring, and strong character who REALLY deserves that special someone.

I liked her a lot, too. I was never really able to decide between her and Sailor Mercury, though.

[Nyo]

During the first scene I see with Jessica on "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", I smile pretty big while performing.

Too bad for you, she's already taken. 8D

I never had a crush on a cartoon character. Suprising really.

[rukift]

My biggest cartoon crush that I've ever had is pikachu. Guys, seriously, don't lay a finger on him. He's mine. :(

And Nyo, I could never really see you getting a crush on well.. erm.. anything. o_O Not like I'd die of shock if it happened, you just don't seem the sort of person to get all involved...? You're too good for that. XD

[Nyo]

Yeh, I know I'm too good for that.

I shouldn't really be here, I don't have a crush at all, cartoon or not. Heck naw, I'll stay, though I won't add much to this topic. XP

[rukift]

You can always make fun of the rabid fangirls who'll tear anyone apart over their true wuv xP

Seriously, when it gets to the point where people are "claiming" characters as their own and lashing out in attack mode over anyone else who likes them, then we might have a problem. o_o

[Nyo]

Yes, I always notice that.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

I liked her a lot, too. I was never really able to decide between her and Sailor Mercury, though.

Mercury was also a big crush of mine, but I always felt she was too anti-social and that's kind of a downer even though she's cute as hell. Jupiter I loved because not only did she have a very sweet and "defensive" personality for her friends.

But she also never really found someone and with the exception of her and Venus, all the scouts ended up with someone. Plus Jupiter was the official "least focused on scout" in terms of character centered episodes. The others got plenty more.

Recently I've found a new crush on Mars. While i find her attitude to be a bit too bitchy at times, she's insanely hotter then I thought she was when I first saw the show.

[Cassini90125]

I liked Mercury for a lot of reasons, but mainly because of her intelligence, which is a big plus in my book. Jupiter, on the other hand... I don't honestly know, there was just something very likable about her that really drew me in. She reminds me of Frankie, too, at least to some extent. :)

[rukift]

*jumps back in* Back in the days of my sailor-moon obsessing, I totally loved Jupiter too. Everything about her was just... so... cool, you know? She was like, perfect to me-- but without being all annoying and blah. Maybe it was because she was so balanced out... haha, I can't really put my finger on it either.

[DoubleLatte]

I've had puh-lenty of crushes on animated characters, many of which I still feel attached to after years. Most recent:

Tallest Red, Zim - Invader Zim (obviously :p)

Davy Jones - PotC: DMC (does he count? he's CG)

Randall Boggs - Monsters, Inc. (watched Monsters, Inc. yesterday with my 5-year-old cousin and *loved* it. Randall, in particular.) Move over, Wilt! ;3

[Voxxyn]

Me being physically attracted to a female character is easy, and I've had many instances... so I'll just list some of the ones that have actually had a long-term impact on me:

Frances "Frankie" Foster ~ Maybe the coolest animated girl I've ever seen. She has an hilariously short temper that makes her refreshing, and a heart so big that I think it actually pours out of her head and masquerades as the red hair we know and adore. And she's foxy to absolutely no end.

Helen Parr aka "Elastigirl" ~ Extremely charming and sexy, which is a heck of an accomplishment considering she's in her thirties/forties and happens to be CGI(usually the kiss of death for human characters). And, of course, she's a wonderful lady who cares about her husband and children.

Violet Parr ~ Like mother, like daughter. Not only is she cute and has a great personality, I can very much relate to her feelings of shyness and alienation.

Ariel ~ My first real crush, and she continues to wow me. A very sweet personality, and(Yeah, this will sound shallow, but I was just a child back then) she wore far less than any of the Disney Princesses. Nothing against them, but Ariel will always mean far more to me.

Terra ~ I know, I know... but I just love traitorous characters, and she(along with Ken Ichijouji from season 2 of Digimon) is one of the better ones I've seen. I just wish there were a better ending to her character arc than "Things Change"(I very much agree with the episode's overall message, but come on...)

[DoubleLatte]

I just wish there were a better ending to her character arc than "Things Change"(I very much agree with the episode's overall message, but come on...)

I was more than a little disappointed too when I saw her comeback episode. It actually left you with more questions than answers.

Darn! I can't believe I missed Ken Ichijouji. He was absolutely gorgeous to me with his "bad gone good" character. I watched the second season with my sister, though I was too embarrassed to let her know that I only started watching because of Ken. It wasn't even until he started to kind of turn over a new leaf that I became interested in him. Before that, he was just the spiky, blue-haired, "spawn of pure evil" kid who wanted to rule the Digiworld with an iron fist, but the whole charade made him appear rather dull and two dimentional (no pun intended). He was full of angst, that kid. So, yeah; thanks a bunch for mentioning him. =3

[Mr. Marshmallow]

Actually I LIKED Ken when he was evil and going around as the Digimon Emperor, and kind of got less interested in him when he became good. I felt he was too thin and kind of flat as a good guy, like there wasn't really anything unique about him as an invididual other then his gimmick.

Same thing for Terra, I NEVER hated her but she is FAR from my favorite titans character. Terra's gimmick was the only thing that made her truly stand out like with Ken (and that was being a traitor), however Ken did a much better job trying to atone for his crimes then Terra did.

I also thought her final appearance in Titans was kinda sucky. I myself always found Starfire to be the hottest titan, and a toon crush of mine. I also liked Jinx and was very happy to see the creators give her much more "breathing room" so to speak and flesh out her character some more.

Another cartoon crush of mine was Roxanne from "A Goofy movie". They did a DAMN good job of making a hottie for Goofy's son Max, she had this foxyness about her and yet, she was a very simple character who was easy to like and see why Max was so into her.

[kaytea]

I have one on mac =(
man I wish he was real and 16

[ch3353-h4xx0rrrr]

Yakko Warner- He's awesome. Great sense of humour, in tact with his childlike side, yet the most responsible of the Warner trio. ;D I dunno. I'm in l-o-v-e with Yakko... and Rob Paulsen, his VA. ;)

Danny Fenton/Phantom- Not so much anymore, but man oh man. He was amazing. Instant attraction USA. :3

Chester McBadbat- We all remember Chester, right? He was so cute; way better than Timmy, IMHO. I thought he had a deep character, or deep for a children's cartoon, anyway. ;D

I think that's it. Be prepared for more, though. ;D

[vannielou]

Danny Fenton/Phantom- Not so much anymore, but man oh man. He was amazing. Instant attraction USA. :3

no joke yo, although I wish the boy would process apparent clues through his head sometimes, but still, the boy does wonders
uhhh, refresh my old thoughts hmm, i know there's lots but here's what comes to mind today

danny

prince phillip-something about the awesome brown hair plus the whole I'll do anything for the love of my life (although I wish he had struggled a little more)
perfect example of something I find attractive: phillip is locked in cell of M's "EVIL CASTLE OF DOOM" and she comes down and tells him the story of him growing old in the jail until he's almost dead and will come back to the still young aurora and she tauntily says "for true love" and he tries to get her but he's stuck in chains just the whole reaction I find verrrrrrrrrrrrry appealing, don't ask me why, I just don't know

prince eric-ahhh, any little girl who was a fan of TLM most likely wanted to marry someone just like eric, although after much contemplation, phillip's the better choice

Mac- who couldn't love him.... just wish he was older and taller...

Aladdin- mucho eye candy happening there8D

man I need to start reading manga/anime/whatever because there are some of those guys where I'll pass the book and be like oooooooooooooooo *drooool*;)

[billytheskink]

Do animes count?

I mean they are technically cartoons.
Some would argue differently, but I won't. anime, cartoons, I see no difference.

As for crushes, I can't really say. I suppose I'll count from the shows I watched because a certain female character was entertaining.

So that means, Frankie, and Ro from the Zeta Project.
short list.

[pitbulllady]

I've had puh-lenty of crushes on animated characters, many of which I still feel attached to after years. Most recent:

Tallest Red, Zim - Invader Zim (obviously :p)

Davy Jones - PotC: DMC (does he count? he's CG)

Randall Boggs - Monsters, Inc. (watched Monsters, Inc. yesterday with my 5-year-old cousin and *loved* it. Randall, in particular.) Move over, Wilt! ;3


I would have a really, REALLY tough time if I ever had to choose between Randall and Wilt! At first, they seem so different...but pay close attention to Wilt in some of the latter episodes(especially "Bus The Two of Us"), as the stress of SOMETHING is starting to really get to him, and tell me that he and Randall aren't, like, sharing the same brain or something! Their reactions, especially to someone startling them, or someone(like Bloo or Mike Wazowski)pushing the right "buttons", as so similar. Thing is, Randall is often perceived as Evil Incarnate, while Wilt is Mr. Nice Guy. Given how quickly Wilt can go from that Mr. Nice Guy to borderline psycho, you have to wonder what Randall's behavior would be like in the absence of the extreme and prolonged stress he was under in the movie. While I can't quite picture him apologizing for every little thing or willingly taking the blame for things he didn't do(he got pretty upset when Mike accused him of cheating, which he was NOT doing), it's not difficult to fathom him being the sort who'd randomly clean someone else's apartment "just because" or nearly break his neck to go get Frankie some light bulbs from the store! Plus, like Wilt, he's got this past that no one knows about, but it's easy to extrapolate that it has not been a pleasant one, and if you look closely, you will see that Randall has more than his fair share of noticeable scars, as well.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

Randall makes life stressful for himself though. He purposely gets in confrontations with both Mike and Sulley, and doesn't even appreciate those who work for him, let alone the people he hates. Randall's a villain through and through, he's even worse then Waternoose in the movie.

Waternoose may have proven to be cold as ice when he said he'd take a thousand children just to save his company, but he also showed regret and sympathy towards what happened to Sulley. He wasn't entirely thrilled with Boggs idea of stealing screams either, he even said "you're not half the monster sulley is".

But anyway back on topic, I never actually had a crush on any female villain with the exception being Jinx from Teen Titans. I didn't think of her as much but as they used her more and developed her personality further, I saw what other Jinx fans saw in her. And even found her to be down right attractive.

I usually get turned off by toon girls that are evil, considering that it's hard to like someone who's such a bad seed. But considering Jinx ended up becoming good anyway, I guess nothing's really changed in my tastes then after all.

I absolutely beg...no, DEMAND, to differ with you there! You've insulted me, and no, I'm NOT kidding. I don't bash YOUR favorites, so be prepared for a long defense of Randall Boggs, written from the perspective of a working adult who's been through a lot of what he has, and understands first-hand that no matter how "good" a person you THINK you are, we all have limits.

Randall had no choice but to build the Scream Extractor and choose a human child to test it on. His boss, Mr. Waternoose, controlled his every move and masterminded the whole thing. Waternoose had no qualms about illegally "banishing" his own best friend, Sulley, when SULLEY crossed him, and it was clear that he had no love lost for Randall whatsoever, so what do you suppose he would have done if RANDALL had disobeyed him? I've been in that very situation-given a choice by a corrupt supervisor between committing a felony and losing my job, my sole means of support. I know exactly what it is like, and the toll it takes on you emotionally, to work for someone who hates you. I know what it's like to see that person's friends and family members who work for the same organization get treated like royalty while I got treated like crap. I know what it will do to your personality, too, and how you treat others. Been There, Done That. AGAIN, for those who are short of either real-life experience or common sense, or both, WATERNOOSE, NOT Randall, came up with the whole idea of building the Scream Extractor AND kidnapping children. NO big-shot CEO, anywhere in the Universe, in this dimension or any other, is going to pay any attention to some idea from some lowly Nobody like Randall Boggs, who, to make matters worse, is of a racial minority(only scaly, reptilian monster) at that! That would be like the guy who scrubs toilets at Microsoft's offices approaching Bill Gates with an idea for a new computer chip-AIN'T gonna happen, kiddo! The Universe just does not work that way.

Randall does NOT "purposefully get into confrontations with Mike and Sulley". Mike started the whole thing, because like Bloo, he doesn't find anyone else's jokes funny. He can't take a PRANK played on him by a co-worker, and yeah, that WAS a prank that Randall pulled in the locker room-silly and immature, yes, but I've done similar things and had similar things done to ME by co-workers, to relieve stress on the job, and I was able to laugh it off. Mike, however, feels the need to bring up Randall's second-place position and boast about how he and Sulley(as IF Mike was doing the Scaring himself)are going to beat Randall at breaking the All-Time Scare Record.

We also find out that Randall has apparently been working on designing and building that machine, down in that dark refinery, for two years. I seriously doubt that Waternoose is the patient type, either, who simply would say, "Oh, take as long as you need on this, dear boy"; that SOOO would NOT have happened! He would have, especially in the final days leading up to that movie, been breathing down the back of Randall's neck like a nightmare, constantly reminding him that he was in second place, how lousy a Scarer he was compared to Mr. Wonderful and Furry, and what sort of vile things were going to happen if Mr. Boggs didn't get that machine finished and tested YESTERDAY! I've worked for more than my share of Waternooses, and I know that is how they operate. All this time, of course, Randall still has to work his regular nine-to-five, so no one will be suspicious. And WHEN does that leave for working on the Scream Extractor? Why most nights, of course, along with holidays and weekends...for two friggin' YEARS! Did you know that sleep deprivation is so detrimental to one's mental, emotional and physical health that the Geneva Convention classifies it as TORTURE? Probably not. Now, imagine giving up every free moment you have-every weekend, every holiday, and much of your nights-to spend down in a virtual dungeon slaving away on some machine for someone who hates your guts and never wastes an opportunity to tell you so. Any social life, even that on the internet, that you had would be history. Go ahead, too, and imagine that you CANNOT TELL ANYONE about this, under possible threat on your life! If Randall had had a wife/girlfriend prior to the events of the movie, what do you suppose SHE would have thought, when he started coming home in the wee hours of the morning, all tired and worn out, and started disappearing over the weekends, and the holidays, and refused to tell her what was going on? I bet most female members on this forum would have a really easy answer for THAT one, right, ladies? Not many gals are gonna put up with that, so on top of the sleep loss, the loss of all free/leisure time, Randall most likely would have had a nasty break-up or divorce to deal with, along with the financial sucker-punch that those often bring. He would have just had to let her go; he would not have even been able to tell her!

Now, Mr. Marshmellow, think that YOU would still be Mr. Warmth and Personality after going through all THAT for two years? If you think so, buddy boy, you're kidding yourself, 'cause you definately ain't kidding ME! I don't consider myself an "evil" person, though like everyone else, YOU included, I have my limits, and I'm certainly capable of doing "evil" things. I found myself, as a naive and ignorant Twenty-Something(same age as Randall, who is 25 in the movie), in a similar predicament, like I said. I came pretty darn close to killing someone, I really did. I fantasized about it, since in my stress-induced condition, I had to emotionally find a scapegoat. It was either that, or take my own life. I was like a coyote in a steel trap by that point. I can therefore absolutely, 100% identify with, and understand, Randall's emotional state. If that is what constitutes being a "villain", well, I guess I'm as evil as they get, right? Of course, when I was young and naive, I NEVER would have IMAGINED that I'd ever get to such a low point; I was a good girl after all, and Good People don't do things like that, do they? It's so easy to point fingers when you've never Been There, Done That, or known closely someone who has. Believe me, Karma has much in store for the Perfect People(or so they think) in the world, and it's not gonna be pretty. As a teenager, I would have been the first to point out how "evil" Randall was, but my perspective, as an adult, is quite different, thanks to Karma kicking MY butt a time or two! I got through those dark times because I had something that Randall does not-a FAMILY. I DID have someone to talk to, a shoulder to cry on, somebody I knew would always be there, no matter what. They pulled me in from the brink, before it was too late. I don't think that Randall HAS a family. If YOU disappeared one day from school, or work, how would YOUR family react? Would they just sit by and say nothing while the last person you were seen with gets promoted to some important position? Would they just sit by while that person's buddy puts on a public "company play" in which YOU are ridiculed in front of everyone? If you can answer "yes" to either one of those questions, I feel very, very sorry for you. You're in worse shape than either myself OR Randall, and don't even know it.

Now, how do I know that Randall wasn't always a nasty jerk who had trouble getting along with co-workers? Easy...I WORK for a living. I know that companies do NOT put up with trouble-makers. They don't have to, since there's always somebody just as qualified to do your job, if you can't get along with others. As I've stated, stress WILL change your personality for the worst, though, and turn a person who'se normally easy to get along with into a total jerk...or worse. Everybody has their limits, and for Randall to have coped with all that for two years, his limits were a whole lot higher to begin with that mine every were! Even Wilt has shown that it doesn't take much-certainly not two years' worth-of acute stress to make HIM resort to violence(and I would call deliberately pushing Mr. Herriman down the stairs "violence")and snapping at people. I'd really hate to run into Wilt after two years of the same level of stress that he went through in either "Hiccy Burp" or "Bus The Two of Us", IF he survived that long, that is! Funny how no one considers Wilt to be a "villain" though, since we do get to see his good side, too, AND he's not scaly and reptilian, either.

Sorry to those who are more open-minded and DON'T bash others' favorites for the long diatribe, but I got the title PIT BULLlady honestly, since like my namesake canines, I don't put up with attacks on my favorites or anything or anyone I care about, and I don't turn tail and run like a wall-jumping cur, either.

[BlooCheese]

My biggest cartoon crush that I've ever had is pikachu. Guys, seriously, don't lay a finger on him. He's mine. :(


OMG. Pikachu! Sorry, I couldn't help but laugh. You're the first person I've heard of who has a crush on a Pokemon.

Pikachu's cute and all, but I'd never be able to form any kind of crush on it. That's just me, though.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

I absolutely beg...no, DEMAND, to differ with you there! You've insulted me, and no, I'm NOT kidding. I don't bash YOUR favorites, so be prepared for a long defense of Randall Boggs..

...........okay seriously, no offense here, but you need to relax. That was NOT an attack, I'd hardly even register that as an attack. I didn't bash Randal and I think you're taking this far deeper into consideration then it needs to be and your taking this more personally then it needs to be.

I never stated any direct or subtle insults, nor did I call Randal any names or mock him in anyway. And most importantly, 2 things:

1. Waternoose DID have a problem with banishing Sulley, if there's one thing I have learned from watching villains is that there is a difference between being bad and being pure evil. Compassion, sympathty, or any kind of sentimental attachment to a person is a sign of emotion, not a heartless person.

Scar is a fine example. He doesn't care about anyone but himself, he sold out his own troops at the fall of a hat and murdered his own brother and attempted to do the same to his own son.

2. By saying "worse" I do NOT mean he's a crappy character or that he sucks, I mean worse as he eviller, meaner, nastier, a darker baddie then Waternoose is what I was getting at. Watch Randal's lines, his reactions to others, his overall mood, and everything about him in comparison to what Waternoose does.

Randal doesn't care about anymore but himself. This is not an attack, this is not an insult, this is what the movie SHOWS. You're taking a personal opinion to heart and you shouldn't, especially since that's all this is, an opinion. I never attacked, slandered, bashed, flamed or insulted Randal ANYWHERE in my statement.

I understood perfectly well what you meant. Just because a person shows regret for doing something wrong, but does it anyway, does not indicate "compassion". The fact that Waternoose did that to someone who'd earlier told him "you've been like a father to me" in the first place is a sign that HE cares only about himself and making more money for his company. If he would do that to an old FRIEND who'd crossed him, what do you suppose he would have done to someone like Randall, someone he clearly disliked, if Randall had refused to follow his orders, or told someone about the project? Randall KNEW that his own life was on the line if he failed to comply with any of Waternoose's orders, and having that sort of proverbial gun to your head 24/7, for two YEARS, will certainly turn the nicest, sweetest person into an ogre!

I've also clearly explained WHY Randall acted so "mean" and "nasty", as you put it. I've been THROUGH that myself, and I've experienced first-hand what that sort of prolonged stress can and WILL do to someone, even someone who's always, for the most part, been thought of as a "nice" person and always considered themselves basically to be a nice person. I have gotten to the part where I was, all the time, a total (correct term for a female dog) towards everyone, but even worse on myself, due to things that were going on at work. Anyone who can point a finger and say that someone is "evil", when they have only seen a PART of that person, is showing lack of real-world experience. Like I said, when I was in high school or college, if I'd seen the movie then, I probably would have felt just like you do, since I'd basically lived a very sheltered life with few really bad experiences. I knew nothing then of how the Real World works. Now, though, much later in life, I've learned the hard way not to be too quick to judge someone until you know, as Paul Harvey puts it, "the REST of the story". I've LIVED the "rest of the story", in a situation very similar to Randall's, right down to being the "outcast" who was perceived as "different" from those I had to work with, so his reactions are not surprisingly very similar to mine. The main differences have to do with the fact that he probably had no real choice-he HAD to cooperate with his boss, and being fired would have been the least of his problems if he hadn't.

IF Randall "didn't care about anyone but himself", explain THIS action: in the Door Vault scene, he grabs Boo after she slips from Sulley's grip(yes, she slips, Randall does NOT snatch her away from him)and prevents her from falling. Later, while he's carrying her, she starts to slip a bit from his own grip, and he pulls her up closer. He'd been ordered by Waternoose to kill all the witnesses, Boo included, so why doesn't he? I know some dimwit will probably say, "Because he was gonna test that machine on her and she needed to be alive", BUT, what had happened to that machine by that point, hmmm? Sulley had totally destroyed it, and it would have taken months to repair, IF it could be repaired at all, so that argument won't cut it. Why didn't Randall just kill Boo there and then; he could simply have dropped her and let her fall, but he doesn't. In fact, he never yells at her, or speaks angrily to HER, or hurts her, but at the worst, seems detached from her, not having gotten a chance to know her as a sentient being. Still, she was of no use to him by that point, so keeping her alive would have been a dangerous thing to do, with the CDA everywhere, unless of course, he intended to put her back in her room.

There is an old proverb, that's good advice, "An open enemy is still better than a pretend friend". That applies to people like Randall and Waternoose. It's far easier to deal with someone that you KNOW dislikes you, and Randall at least was open and honest about how he felt about people. He'd let you know exactly where you stood with him. Waternoose, on the other hand, was one of those people who smile in your face and gain your trust, only to misuse it and turn it against you later on down the road. They lie, they manipulate, and they use others to their advantage, all the while putting up a front of being nice. THAT is the sort of person who will do the worst to you, given the opportunity, but I suspect that some people are going to have to learn this lesson the hard way, as I have.

pitbulllady

[Tonya]

Woah, when pitbulllady gets mad she writes a novel! I don't mean to butt in, but can I share my opinion? Well actually, it's more of a comment.

I can understand a bit where pitbulllady's coming from. I'm a good girl, a nice girl in general, the kind of person who will be more than happy to talk with someone about their problams in life if they need to. But a few years of hell WILL tick me of. No, I am not cussimg, but I certantly have felt like I was in the actual place before, as pibulllady put it, "Been There, Done That". Gee were do I start?
Well, I have been Home-schooled my whole life exept for my first few weeks of going to school for the first time this year. Okay, for all those years I've never really had any friends, and most of my time I was kept in the house because since we live in a bad neighborhood my mom didin't want me outside just all the time. But even more than that she's a socialphobic who can't handle the thoughts of going out and that was/still is the main reasn why she don't want me out, she says she needs me. I guess I make her feel safe being with her 24-7 or something. So imagine being pinned up in the house with your mom for most of your life. I craved being out and having friends, having a social life, but you can't have one if your mom is a socialphobic who's obsessed with you. Think I craved being out then?
Oh sweetheart, you won't know how bad you'll want out untill your alchoholic, drug addicted, constantly screaming, cursing, wife beating, homeless, freeloading 32 yr old brother and his wife comes in to live with you and your mom in a small 2 bedroom apt. on and off for more than 7 years! You just wouldin't understand what it's like. Nobody I know does. I had no peers to relate to/still dont, and understand what it was like to live with that for more than 7 years, only my imaginary friends, but that's a different story.

I was literally loosing my mind, slowly, and it was a torture. I'm serious. You might be thinking that mom couldiv'e kicked him outta the house if she wanted right? No, he would have just argued with her. Now mom wasin't as sickly then as she is now, I think that my brother drove her more downhill into sickliness, both physically and mentally.

I would just sit there and shake and cry while he went about the house yelling at everybody and me because he may have lost one of his pills or something.
I feel kinda bad for admitting this but I actually thought of things to stop it all...to stop him. I mean rather morbid things that would consist of stoping him. I just can't bring myself to say it. But I sometimes thought about it. Sometimes I'd be in the kitchen, glancing at those knifes and thinking, The next time he starts screaming..... I woundered how I would do it and stuff.
I even thought of slipping pills into his drinks, but I only stoped myself from doing any of it cause I knew I couldin't live with the guilt.

My goodness, you guys are discussing Montsers Inc. and I'm just typng away about my auto biography that nobody asked to hear. I guess I was just relating to the things pitbulllady said and stuff, and I wanted to get it all off my chest anyway since it all reminded me of myself.

[pitbulllady]

No, that's fine, Tonya; you made a good point, that being that ANYBODY, no matter how "nice" a person they are, can be pushed only so far. ANYONE, when under enough stress, will do awful things and behave in very unpleasant ways. I mean, we have seen on Foster's that WILT, of all people, can be pushed into doing some bad things and has "triggers" that prompt him to be a rather nasty individual. What would your opinion of Wilt be, for example, if the only episode you've seen him in was "Beat With a Schtick"? We only get to see Randall in Monsters, Inc. following TWO FREAKIN' YEARS of acute, intense physical and mental stress. If Wilt can be a nasty person from time to time due to things HE is going through, or has been through in his past, why is it any bigger leap of logic to assume that Randall, had he not been in that situation, could not have at least been a fairly easy-to-get-along-with guy, more of a "healthy" Type Three Personality? I've lived long enough, seen enough and done enough, to know that there is no such thing as a truely evil person or a totally good person. Everyone of us has the equal capacity for BOTH, depending on our circumstances. Randall is no more, or less, evil than I am, or you, or Wilt, or anyone else. He is simply an ordinary individual caught up in something way over his head, something he has no control over, and had basically been pushed to that wild animal survival mode we all possess. I've been there, Tonya's been there(without even being nearly as old as I am), so we understand. It was easy for the filmmakers to use him as the "red herring", to take away attention from the REAL villain(Waternoose), and to make him an object of deep hatred simply because he's scaly and reptilian, so they were counting on that hate/fear of reptiles that many people have to sway their opinions of Randall. Had he been furry, he would not have seemed anywhere near as menacing to most people. He's also the only reptilian monster in that whole movie, if you don't count Celia Mae's "hair", so I have to wonder if he's always been hated and treated with suspicion in HIS world, because of that. If you tell someone they're "bad" based on their appearance for long enough, they'll start to prove you right.

pitbulllady

[Tonya]

Thank you pitbulllady, for understanding.
This whole topic reminds me of that movie, "Carrie". She was so mistreated by everybody and her mom that she finally just snapped and burned everything. This also reminds me of a movie called "Castle Freak". It's about this guy, Giorgio, who was kept in a dungeon for over fifty years since he was five, being beaten with a cat-o-nine tales and starved by his mom, and when he escapes he goes around killing people. I think he did it cause he was just an angry, starving, guy who didini't know any better. This poor fellow didin't even look remotly human.
I cried when he died at the end. Okay, I felt compassion for him, but mom hated him. She thought of him as a cold-hearted murderer. I mean come on, he was five when he got thrown in the dungeon! How COULD he know all the chaos he caused? I thought of him as a starved, abused animal who needed help, desperatly. It's one of those H. P. Lovecraft films. If you'd watch the movie you might see why I felt sorry for him. Most people would hate him of course.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

.....Okay I said my piece, and clearly the point isn't getting across because I think this is already going too far out of the topic and the context of the thread. Your looking way too deeply into this to try and prove everything I say is wrong.

And I'm trying to be polite here and be honest to say, I am not getting into this. This has already become an out of control war where we pick apart each other's words and I don't want to get into this so please, stop trying to convince me because I am not here to fight.

I am saying this to end my involvement with this because my point has been completely ignored and I am not going to help drag this out into a larger issue.

[Sparky]

Thanks Mr M. If pbl or anyone else wants to pursue this topic that's fine, but it needs to be done in its own thread, because this one is kinda lying bleeding on the floor now, poor thing. ;)

[DoubleLatte]

...all I said was that I liked Randall. :p I'm not going to beat this into Mr. Marshmallow's head (since he's already taken his fair share of beating), but DO try looking deeper into it, m'kay Mr. M? I think the word "evil" is soo.. blegh.

ANYONE, when under enough stress, will do awful things and behave in very unpleasant ways. I mean, we have seen on Foster's that WILT, of all people, can be pushed into doing some bad things and has "triggers" that prompt him to be a rather nasty individual.

This discussion reminded me of a tidbit that my Social and Ethnic Relations professor was discussing about the German soldiers that assisted in murdering millions of Jews during the Holocaust. It was completely baffling to us how these people could bring themselves to do what they did (If you've seen any actual footage of the German death camps, you'll know what I mean) and even more baffling to us were the soldiers' indifference and/or denial towards their acts of manslaughter. They were able to block out any sort of logic and reason and switch on their "tunnel vision" to morph their perceptions and just follow orders. It was either your #$$, or someone else's. Like my professor said, "we all love ourselves" (and he said this in a 'If I have to kill you so *I* can live, so be it' way).

[Sparky]

Yeah, I love it when I get ignored. ::) Would y'all prefer it if I split these posts off into its own thread so you can continue? There's nothing *wrong* with this discussion, it's just that it's gone off-topic and I'm trying to rescue the original thread.

[vannielou]

*super girl to the rescue*
anyway:
did anyone make up an imaginary friend based on a cartoon crush?

*guilty*

[Mr. Marshmallow]

My advice would be no, this has become more of a fight then a topic.

But that's just me and my 2 cents. And just so everyone is CRYSTAL clear on my post's intentions, I am simply giving my response to Sparky's question.

I am NOT getting back into this dicussion again in anyway, shape or form.

[Nyo]

It's just that it's gone off-topic and I'm trying to rescue the original thread.

Ya rly. I mean, it ended up becoming a Monster's, Inc. disscussion. :o

Anyway...I think I had a cartoon crush when I was little, but I'm not positive. Oh, wait...it was Buster Bunny from Tiny Toon Adventures.

I had a small crush on him, but like ruki said, I didn't lash out in attack mode when someone said something negative about him. I say it was small because I wasn't jealous of Babs or anything. When the show was canned when I was 5 or 6, and it hardly had re-runs, I got over him.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

Funny you mention Tiny Toons cause I had a BIG crush on Fifi Lefume (I think her last name is that). Anyway the odd thing is, the crush formed more when I saw her on the show when i was older.

As a kid, I enjoyed Tiny Toons for what it was and never found an attraction deep enough for anyone on that show. Until more recently and I got hooked om Fifi fever :frankiesmile:.

[Nyo]

Until more recently and I got hooked on Fifi fever. :frankiesmile:.

You're, like, one on of the few males I talk to on the 'Net to have a crush on a female skunk cartoon character. :P

For some reason I think you'll like Stella from Over The Hedge. She is very spunky, but she doesn't act like Fifi at all.

[tehpancakezeatuh]

Numbuh 1 from Codename: Kids Next Door and Cosmo from Fairly OddParents. The second one is not exactly a crush. More like... fangirlism XP

[Mr. Marshmallow]

I've always liked skunk toon characters, I don't know. And incidently I actually did see Over the Hegde (loved it!) and I did enjoy Stella's character very much.

I didn't find the same type of attraction like I did when I saw Fifi in Tiny Toons, but I have to admit she looked pretty cute after they gave her that makeover.

[Nyo]

Yeah, she did...

...maybe you'll fall for her like Tiger did (Just kidding). But that's just me. :P

[DoubleLatte]

OMG. Pikachu! Sorry, I couldn't help but laugh. You're the first person I've heard of who has a crush on a Pokemon.

Not true. :p I used to have this HUGE crush on Mewtwo back when the movie came out.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

Mewtwo? :o That's definitely one I wasn't expecting. Mewtwo wasn't exactly the friendliest Pokemon in his movies, espeically his first one.

I mean he KILLED people! But, I'm not bashing your tastes. I myself never found any of the countless zillions of Pokemon to be crush worthy.

Now Misty the trainer from Pokemon, she is WAY high crush material.

[Tonya]

Can I ask just one question? I'm really not trying to re-hash anything that has to do with that Monsters Inc fight in those other posts back there. But anyway here's my question,
pitbulllady, is a part of you liking Randall have anything to do with him being a reptile? It's obvious that you love reptiles and things likes that but if Randall wasin't a reptile, would you have liked him as much?

ps. I also think Randall is kinda attractive. It's weird, I dunno why but I do. It's not exactly a "crush", but more like, I think he's kinda attractive for a lizard.

[DoubleLatte]

Mewtwo? :o That's definitely one I wasn't expecting. Mewtwo wasn't exactly the friendliest Pokemon in his movies, espeically his first one.

I mean he KILLED people! But, I'm not bashing your tastes. I myself never found any of the countless zillions of Pokemon to be crush worthy.

Most of my animated interests are never the "friendliest". :p I personally think he's the most misunderstood character, bar none. Here in America, Mewtwo's story (and character) was morphed beyond recognition and that probably gave way for people to gain misconceptions about his motives. You have to understand where he's coming from first before making up your mind about him.

[Medikor]

Franke is my #1 pick. But I also have a thing for Sango from Inuyasha. And I just love Hinata from Naruto, she's so cute and I love her to pieces! I don't have a crush on her, (she's only a kid after all) But I would love to have her as a daughter!:D

[Mr. Marshmallow]

You have to understand where he's coming from first before making up your mind about him.

The movie is what I based my opinions on considering since that is the only media depictation of Mewtwo that allows you to see more of who he is. And regardless of dubbing or changed dialouge, Mewtwo's actions remained the same.

Mewtwo's background isn't exactly any different then most "created" type characters. Frankenstein, Johnny 5 (Short Circuit), Edward Scissorhands. They're all in the same boat and being a total movie and TV freak, I got a pretty good handle on where he is coming from.

[DoubleLatte]

The movie is what I based my opinions on considering since that is the only media depictation of Mewtwo that allows you to see more of who he is. And regardless of dubbing or changed dialouge, Mewtwo's actions remained the same.

Exactly. Mewtwo (or Pokemon as a whole, for that matter) isn't quite the same here as it is overseas. If you've never seen anything but the dubbed version of that movie and nothing else at all, I reeeeeally suggest you don't stick like glue to that opinion. How do you know his motives remained the same? I know for a fact that the horrible translation (100% intentional)changed the whole story. But, whatever. *I* certainly am not even going to try (or hope) to get you to change your mind.

ps. I also think Randall is kinda attractive. It's weird, I dunno why but I do. It's not exactly a "crush", but more like, I think he's kinda attractive for a lizard.

I once tried to use the word "cute" on Randall. You know, as in "cute" guy? It didn't work. I think Randall is several words above "cute". :3

[Medikor]

Well... if it's okay to include non-human characters in this (ala Randel) then I guess that I can admit that I always had a thing for Freya (Final Fantasy IX) and Krystal. (Starfox):D

[Mr. Marshmallow]

2 things:

1. I agree Krystal from Star Fox is a full blown furry hottie 8-).

And 2. Regardless of any dialouge based translation, unless those humans in the lab center admitted to some sort of wicked, heartless, barbaric act or crime in their brief stint of coversation with Mewtwo, his actions will never be excused.

I also saw absolutely nothing wrong with the dubbed version of Mewtwo's movie, or any of the other Pokemon films. I have also seen at least half of the first movie through clips and brief moments in japanese dialouge.

And like I said before, I never have any beefs with dubbing and words or no words, actions speak louder then words. My main thing is revolved towards Mewtwo's killing the scientists that created him. I'm not saying he didn't become good.

But what he did was not something I can ignore.

[Nyo]

Mewtwo? That's...odd.

[Tonya]

Think that's odd? I had the hots for The Grinch once! (Jim Carey's version).

[Matchsticks]

Time for me to throw in my Cartoon Crushes.

Owen Burnett from Gargoyles: He is what I look for in a man, dependable, has a good job, logical, kinda mysterious, respectful and once you learn his story it is all like,"OMGWTFBBQ! I shoulda noticed it sooner!" Also, because he is Puck you know he has to know how to PAR-TAY!

My other crush is Izumi Curtis from FMA: She is what I look for in a woman. She is loyal and full of love, she will help those she cares about and trys to fix her mistakes. But, if you get her angry there is usually a reason why (that makes sense!) and she will knock some sense into whoever made her angry.

[DoubleLatte]

Think that's odd? I had the hots for The Grinch once! (Jim Carey's version).

Wonderful. So I'm odd now? :p

Eh don't feel bad, crushes are crushes, you can't help which animated hottie you fall in love with. Even if it's more then one.

Teen titans is a great place to find toon crushes. Starfire my number one Titan hottie from that show :bloosmirk: and so is that cutie Jinx.

[scary_dream]

Abel Nightroad


If you don't know who he is,I'll tell you.

Yes, YES! Totally him... I have a lot of cartoon/video game crushes. They make me feel weird talking about them because there are so many!

Wilt (of course), Sesshomaru (Inuyasha), Miroku (Inuyasha), Swisgaar Skwigelf (Metalocalypse), Dante (Devil May Cry), Vergil (Devil May Cry), Leon (Resident Evil 4), Vincent Valentine (Final Fantasy), Cid (Final Fantasy), Vash the Stampede (Trigun), Alucard (Hellsing), Link (Legend of Zelda), and jeez... many more. I know Cid is older but so is Johnny Depp, and HE'S still sexy. Why can't Cid be?

If I were a cartoon, I'd probably end up being the weird girl that all of these characters found annoying and I'd end up with a drunken fat guy, though. :( My luck.

[vannielou]

man if we talked video game wise link would definitely be on my list

[Voxxyn]

Since we're now mentioning video game characters and since Link has been mentioned twice in a row, I'd like to cite the fictional woman that for a long time, before Frankie, was my undisputed #1 crush: Samus Aran from the Metroid games.

The aura of mystery and uniqueness(at least when compared to the typical videogame heroine) is what makes her great. That, and she's FREAKING HOT in the "under 2/3 hours" endings for the 2D Metroids. I still adore her very much.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

Video game hotties are just as good in my book as anime or animated females. Though personally, there haven't been as many game girl crushes for me as there have been for TV. Only one comes to mind and it's from a recent game.

Krystal from the Star Fox Adventures/Assault games. She is one foxy fox and I think she's down right goregous. Very mysterious and very "diamond" like with her fur color scheme and the whole secret tribal girl thing she's got going on.

Only other possible one would be Rouge the Bat from the Sonic adventure games. Other then her nausieating ego problem, she's one hot bat.

[Medikor]

Have you seen Zero suit Samus in Smash Bros Brawl? I think you'll like it.;) The Fire Emblem series is chock full of lovelies to crush on. The Pegasus riders are always crush worthy.

[InsaneFan]

Eh don't feel bad, crushes are crushes, you can't help which animated hottie you fall in love with. Even if it's more then one.

Teen titans is a great place to find toon crushes. Starfire my number one Titan hottie from that show :bloosmirk: and so is that cutie Jinx.

*flinches at the mention of Jinx* I'm still recovering from 'Deception'. And 'Cyborg the Barbarian'. And '257-494'. And all the episodes with BumbleBee. DX

[Invader Bloo]

I've never had any, but there are some that are sort of hot.



Like Coco! ;)

[Thornwhistle]

That reminds me,I'm going to search for a Bishie site so I can put a link here.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

*flinches at the mention of Jinx* I'm still recovering from 'Deception'. And 'Cyborg the Barbarian'. And '257-494'. And all the episodes with BumbleBee. DX

Cyborg hasn't had the best episodes, but if your looking for a good one with Jinx, or if your just wondering how I did get a crush on her.

Check out the episode "Lightspeed", one of the best episodes in the whole series if you ask me. Kid Flash was kick ass and it's thanks to him and this episode Jinx landed into my cartoon crush patch.

'Lightspeed' was one of the first episodes I saw all of. It was pretty good. ^^ Kid Flash was preeetty smooth. :bloogrin

Actually, Jinx is cool, but I was referring to 'Deception' because she had a crush on Cy in that one. *twitch* I get pretty jealous and protective of the guys I like...

[Medikor]

Just don't take it to the leangths that Barry would.8D

You have my complete sympathy.

XD Too late.

[Invader Bloo]

Not a crush but I think Frankie is hot, for a cartoon.

[Cassini90125]

Not a crush but I think Frankie is hot, for a cartoon.

For a cartoon!?!? She outclasses everything in Hollywood! Er, that's not all that hard to do, actually... Let me go think about this.

(Goes to corner of room to think) ;) :)

[scary_dream]

You're right, it's not hard to do. Hollywood is a skanky, skanky place.

I'm a girl, so no crush here, but I DO think Frankie is very pretty and would be a blast to meet.

[InsaneFan]

I second you. ^^

[Nyo]

I too would like to meet Frankie.

[One Radical Dude]

I agree, most of Hollywood women don't match up to the looks of Frances Foster, even though she's a fictional character. :frankiesmile: :-*

[Mr. Marshmallow]

I think this all verges on tastes once more. People find the strangest things and the strangest characters attractive. Just like you guys are saying Hollywood's hotties aren't attractive to you, the same can be said to others bout animated hotties.

I'm not knocking em I'm just saying it's all a matter of what is attractive to who and what not. I myself admit my liking for animated girls is a tad bit stronger, there's a few RL girls that I find drop dead goregous that do exist in the land of Hollywood though.

But I think animated girls can be just as beautiful and as interesting to know (if we ever could get to know em) as Hollywood's girls. Of all the animated females I could meet, and date ;) if I could that is. My top 5 would be, in this order:

1. Lita/Sailor Jupiter (Sailor Moon)
2. Frankie Foster (Foster's)
3. Misty (Pokemon)
4. Mahoro (Mahoromatic)
5. Bunnie Rabbot (Sonic the Hedgehog)

I think Mr. Marshmellow was able to say what I would not be able to put in such fine words.

[Cassini90125]

Quite well said. Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder, after all. The are some very beautiful women in Hollywood, but for the most part there's no one out there I would care to have a relationship with. Given a choice, I'd pick a cartoon or a Sim every time.

I'm with you there, Cassini! Even though there are some beautiful/handsome people in Hollywood, MOST of that which we see onscreen is the result of make-up artists' hard work and a bit of Photoshopping. It's all on the surface. A lot of Hollywood stars are incredibly shallow, clueless people, easily manipulated by special-interest causes when they have no idea what they're really supporting. Most Hollywood stars are extremely isolated from the reality that most of us deal with. They're the products of agents and promoters, of make-up artists and wardrobe designers, and as such, are hardly anymore "real" than animated characters are. From a female perspective, I can't think of any Hollywood actor who appeals to me as much as Wilt does, and I can see how you'd feel the same way about Frankie. To compare her to most of the starlettes out there does her a disservice, it really does.

[Medikor]

That's why I love voice actors over "real" celebrity's. They are real people and infinetly more interesting them all the Tom Cruse's and Nichole Kidman's out there.
Animated characters have this appeal to people. Be it something as shallow as them haveing perfect bodies that can only be obtained from an animation cell, or the character of the character itself. So much love and care is put into so many wonderful characters that it's hard not to become attached, or even attracted, to them.
I don't let my friends or family know about my cartoon crushes because they would be quick to riddicule me. The most common responce you get is "Dude, their cartoons!" and then you're told you need to get out more.:jk: Granted, some people can take a cartoon crush a little too far...

[DoubleLatte]

I don't let anybody else (aside from strangers online :3) know about my particular interest in a cartoon character either. I know it's very common and everybody fantasizes, yet some people still can't get past the point of regarding it as odd because you're not worshipping a more maintream and widely adored Hollywood hottie.
I actually feel odd at having had more infatuations with animated characters than the Hollywood hunks out there. Orlando Bloom? I have absolutely no clue as to why so many girls adore that man, nor I do find anything particularly attractive about him (or any other male Hollywood icon for that matter). I'll pick Randall Boggs over an army of red carpet-strutting "hunks" any day. ;)

[Cassini90125]

I never bring the subject up myself, but I won't deny my feelings for Frankie if anyone asks. I don't really care what other people think about it.

[kageri]

But why is a crush on a cartoon character so different from a crush on a celebrity? They're both pretty much equally unattainable and, quite often, equally real.

[BlooCheese]

Other people will argue time-in and time-out that having a crush on a cartoon character is stupid because a cartoon character isn't real. They'll say that a celebrity, at least, is a real, living, human being.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

A celebrity is actually obtainable it's just extremely unlikely due to location, money, job, positions, and all that kind of stuff. You do have a better chance of hooking up with a celeb then a toon simply because of the logic of the matter.

I'm not knocking toon girls, I'm just answering the question posed honestly. Toons are not real, there drawn, voiced, written, and created by other people for a means of some kind of emotional, mental, or social based entertainment.

You can't hook up with someone or something that isn't real or exists on paper. It's a fantasy and it's a harsh truth but that in fact is where the beauty of a toon crush lies: it's just a fantasy and it can't ever be denied.

Liking toons or thinking of them as real people isn't "wrong" or "sick" either because that's the POINT of TV shows and movies. You watch them because you are trying to associate them as real life characters, to connect with them.

Connections can lead to crushes as much as anything else can.

Well, yeah, they are more attainable, it's just that most people will never get the chance of even meeting them, much less hooking up with them. They tend to hook up with other celebs, and even then it doesn't work out a majority of the time. Plus, toon crushes are also pretty safe. I mean, as long as you don't actually believe they're real and your whole life doesn't revolve around them, no harm done.

[DoubleLatte]

A celebrity is obtainable only to other celebrities (or someone from a high social status), like Kageri mentioned. As commoners, we pretty much have a shot in hell of forming any kind of relationship with a famous person for the same reasons (and plenty more) that you just mentioned. :3 I'm not saying it's entirely impossible, but you certainly don't see it happening very often. At least not with the A-list Hollywood crowd. It's completely off-topic, but I just felt I needed to say it, too.

As for lusting after animated characters, I find my own infatuations odd not because they're "cartoons", but rather because hardly any of them are actually human. :p I see fangirls going nuts over pretty-faced anime males, like Sessoumaru from Inuyasha (just an example right off the top of my head). To me, that is almost like an animated version of a celebrity heartthrob. People are more likely to understand, accept, and even concur with the idea of having that little fantasy with a handsome human/human look-alike character.

[Medikor]

Another great thing about toon characters is that they almost never pretend to be something they're not. They don't often play actor, so you see the character for who they really are.

Not necessarily. Toons are based off of us, and they can pretend to be someone or something there not just like we do. Frankie pretended to be an imaginary friend in "Imposter's", RJ lied to the furry critters from "Over the Hedge".

Judge Doom pretended to BE human when was actually a toon in "Rodger Rabbit?". Cartoons may be able to do things that are out of this world, but like I said before, you'd be amazed at how similar they are to us.

I think what he means (or at least, that's what I got out of it) is that we're seeing their real lives. We see Frankie pretending to be an imaginary friend, but we also see why she did it and everything that happened in her day beforehand; we see their happiness and frustration and even when they have hidden motives, we see them scheming, and so on. Celebrities, for example, we often see only in movies and magazines, and when they are out in public or in front of cameras they have to put on an act all the time.

[Voxxyn]

I agree very much with kageri.

I must be honest, I don't believe that "all toon girls rock and all Hollywood girls suck". There have been plenty of animated female characters that are as shallow and vapid as the worst Hollywood has to offer. Some of these are intentional stereotypes that are used for satirical purposes, but others are the result of unoriginal and cliched efforts by the creators involved. But again, it's very much true that we get to see their real lives, which perhaps explain why some here are so strong in their "toon > 'wood" belief.

And since you guys just had to bring up THAT episode of Foster's(And thus I'm trying hard not to write about how much I hate it)... I guess I'll just use this as an opportunity to state that my affection and emotional attachment to Frankie is infinitely stronger than most Hollywood starlettes. I'm not gonna lie, that redhead is something special. :frankiesmile: :-*

[Cassini90125]

I'm not gonna lie, that redhead is something special. :frankiesmile: :-*

You don't have to tell me. She's the best. :frankiesmile:

You're right on the other points, too; there are a few class acts in Hollywood, and there are some very shallow, vapid cartoon characters. But on a level playing field where everyone's equally "real", I think a cartoon would very likely win over a Hollywood starlet more often than not.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

There's something about Frankie all right ^^.

My point was just that cartoons can be just as shallow as celebs can be. And actually, it's hard to really tell which actors are actually putting on a show for the cameras, and which ones are actually really decent people.

Toons are simply more "likable" because they don't have dual identites like actors and actresses do. Some actors are VERY nice and good people inside. Like Johnny Depp, Jason Lee, Sharon Osbourne, Seth Green.

The things I hear about some of those celebs have just been the nicest things I've ever heard. Actors are like toons and vise versa, some are always putting on a show while others are as good and clean cut as they seem to be.

I think the thing that we love most about toons is the fact that they have a sense of innocence and real deceny about them. There not plagued or bothered by crap like drugs, and stuff like that. Like Frankie, there sweet as sweet can be.

Very true. I don't think that "putting on an act" always means they're actually not as nice as they seem to be; just, for example, we've seen Frankie in a bathrobe in the morning, in a rainstorm covered in mud, etc.... and she's still pretty! Whereas we never really get to see celebrities' "real" lives, although I'm sure there are those who are just as nice as they seem to be.

[Medikor]

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2ery good points, all. And yes, Frankie IS something special alright. She has this undying charm to her. ^^

[Emma]

Another great thing about toon characters is that they almost never pretend to be something they're not. They don't often play actor, so you see the character for who they really are.
It's funny how much that's changed from the Golden Age of animation to now. I mean, have you ever seen that show on CN, Duck Dodgers? The opening credits go something like Daffy Duck as Duck Dodgers, Porky Pig as The Eager, Young Space Cadet and Marvin the Martian as Commander X-2, so they're pretty much not playing themselves (and to my knowledge, none were ever referred to by their real names). It's sorta funny how times have changed, when you think about it. I can't imagine we'd ever see Starring: Madame Foster as Miss Crumplebottom anywhere, which is too bad really. It makes the modern toons lose their sense of immortality, which is sad considering how much I love them.

[Cassini90125]

Starring: Madame Foster as Miss Crumplebottom

I almost had a heart attack reading that. :D

[duck2k]

I am probably late on this topic, but here it goes:

1. Frankie

2. Daphne (Scooby Doo)

3. Kim Possible

4. Atomic Betty

5. Josie (Josie and the Pussycats)

What do they all have in common? Redheads!:cheese: :frankiesmile:

[Dragonrider1227]

Just what the thread title says. I'm TOTALLY into Frankie. In case you hadn't noticed from my avatar and signature ^^; What about you people? Now, please don't make fun of anyone or their crush.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

Holy Hell dragon rider, you like nearly all the same toon girls I do :bloogrin:! Seriously, I love Frankie, Sally, Gadget and ESPECIALLY Jupiter. The only ones I don't share your toon crushes on are Ariel from Little Mermaid (although i know someone who is OBSESSED with her) and that one from "Teenage robot".

Never saw that show so don't really got much to say on it. As I said before when I started my attraction thread, I love crushing on toons and I don't think there's anything wrong with it, so long as you don't start making cardboard cut outs of them and talking to them like they are real people ::) then that's a bit weird.

A recently discovered toon crush I want to shout out: Sawyer from "Cats don't dance". A lovely little toon feline who sings so beautifully, and was designed by Frankie herself! (actually Lauren Faust but you get the idea). She was one of Sawyer's animators. And if you mind the shameless plug here, I made a youtube video all about my toon crushes.

Dragon rider, I think you especially might find this video interesting:

[Bloonan]

Misty from the Pokemon anime. She kinda grew on me, what with me seeing those huge marathons on weekends and all...

[frankie_fan]

I don't have many crushes. They're more favourites than anything else. Although there is one that is still close to my heart...

Sakura from Cardcaptor Sakura.

Ever since I first saw her, she's captured me with her kindnesss and sweet personality. If I ever have a daughter, I want her to be just like Sakura.

Don't worry, Cass. I still like Frankie! :frankiesmile:

That was beautiful FF, really it sounded more dedicated and "crush" worthy then you think. That's pretty much how I feel about my toon crushes.

[Ccook50]

The two earliest cartoon crushes I had were Betty Rubble and Sabrina The Teenage Witch (1969 version).

[xxxClaire]

I really like Mac. :) And I like Wilt, Beast Boy from Teen Titans, Jude from 6Teen, and Cody from Total Drama Island. :D

[Mr. Marshmallow]

I actually had a crush on the LIVE version of Sabrina the Teenage witch, actually it was Melissa Joan Hart who PLAYED Sabrina but you get my point ;).

Mentioning Teen Titans, I have the BIGGEST toon crush/love on Starfire, I think she's one if the sweetest most lovely looking toon girl of the recent toons of the now. I also LOVE Jinx, I didn't care much for her at first but she really grew on me.

Mostly its her appearance, it's just so unique.

BTW, I like your new avatar, Mr. Marshmallow. It's cool!! :frankiesmile:

[Lynnie]

When I was a wee thing, I had a crush on John Darling from Peter Pan. I'm not sure why, probably the way he was always trying to act more mature than he really was. When I was kindergartner aged, I liked any boy I knew with glasses, particularly my best friend's big brother. Told my parents, my best friend, and even HIM that I was going to marry him someday. 8D As I got older and into my "tween" years, I shifted to Peter Pan himself. Throughout my gradeschool days, I had a tendancy to "fall" for any red haired boy that crossed my path. Even if they were bullies. :-X But now days, hmmm... I kind of liked Milo from Pepper Ann, although haven't seen that cartoon in years (I miss it! Whaaa!!!), and I kind of like Robin from TT. As for Foster's.... uh, kind of shy to admit this for obvious reasons, but Sparky will like this---- Tarrence! I don't know why, I can't put my finger on it, but he must remind me of someone. :terrsmile: I'll have you know it's not his bullyness I'm attracted to though. It's something else, probably the way he's drawn or something.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

BTW, I like your new avatar, Mr. Marshmallow. It's cool!! :frankiesmile:

Heh ;) thanks.

Of all the crushes I've had though over the years, the main ones never have died down. Number one is easily Sailor Jupiter from Sailor Moon. Why? Well, I always thought she was hottest of the scouts and also the most lovable scout. She was a brave, powerful, and faithful friend who always stood up for others.

She always wanted to make others happy with her cooking and I felt so hurt and sorry for her because like her, I've tried so many times to have a romantic relationship only to fail every time. So I can relate. I also felt bad for her because Jupiter got the least "centered episodes" out of all the scouts.

My next big crush is also Misty from Pokemon, I've always crushed on that cute little red head. I thought she was such a hottie when I used to watch Pokemon, I felt she was such a nice person but had a hard time showing it and despite the fact she and Ash Ketchum are destined to be together, I often wrote stories of "my guy" crushing on her.

Finally my last longest running crush goes to sweet, adorable Bunnie Rabbot from Sonic the hedgehog (comics/TV show). I found her southern accent to be so insanely cute I never got sick of seeing her, I loved her voice actress on the show (Christine Cavanaugh who also did Gosalyn on Darkwing Duck) and I thought she looked super cute.

She never really did get the attention she deserved in the comics or the TV show but I still love that cybernetic southern bunny bell.

Dude, you pretty much summed up how I feel about her, too. I've always regarded Lita as one of the finest and most decent women I've ever encountered, one of those rare sorts that you want to spend time with for no reason other than the pleasure of her company. As I noted elsewhere I watched her debut episode several hours ago; it took almost no time for all the feelings I ever had for her to come roaring back to life. How could it be otherwise? You don't forget a lady like her, not entirely, not ever. She's someone you want to hold in your arms and whisper "I care about you" to her, and you want to be there for her because you know she'll be there for you. It really boggles the mind that someone of her extraordinary caliber never found someone special. Were it possible for her to express an interest in me I would jump at the chance and never look back. I'm on the verge of writing an epic here so I'd better stop while I'm thinking about it. She's quite inspiring, our miss Lita, quite inspiring indeed, and I'm glad this thread is back so I have a place to say so. :)

[Nyo]

DUDE, I had (and have) so many crushes...haha.

Currently have:

Miles "Tails" Prower (Sonic games; so CUTE!)
Daxter the Ottsel (Jak games...I don't even LIKE them! I watch cutscenes on YouTube however.)
RJ (Over the Hedge movie and comic; I like sneaky people/animals.)
Lazlo (Camp Lazlo; so happy-go-lucky)
Mac (Take a wild guess ;) It's very small however)

I used to have one on Buster Bunny (Tiny Toons), but it was small.

No furry flames plz.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

I'm on the verge of writing an epic here so I'd better stop while I'm thinking about it.

I know EXACTLY how you feel, there's nothing more I would like to do then to actually personally show her the real appreciation she SO deserved in that show. She has so many admirable quantities, I would drive 50 miles to meet someone like her. It's that kind of a quality that is worth going the distance for.

Don't worry about "writing an epic about Lita", that's exactly what this thread is for :-*. You got every right to say how much or little you feel towards a character. Funny you should mention Tiny Toons Nyo because another of my crush is that sweet, purple little stinker herself, Fifi La Fume.

Much like Lita, I always felt so sad for her because she is genuinely searching for true love and she's a very affectionate person. She's not as psychotic or stalker obsessed as Pepe was, and more often then not you see her crying because she can't find a guy who can stand her scent.

Which is even MORE depressing because she can't help the way she is. I never realized her appeal until I was much older but still, I think Fifi is deserving of a decent guy just like Stella from "Over the hedge". (Another movie you mentioned Nyo and ANOTHER skunk I happen to find to be cute).

[cartman414]

Feeling the Lita/Mako/Jupiter love here. She can be quite graceful when she wants to be as well.

I'm also partial to Mina(ko)/Venus, because she's light-hearted, funny, and quite beautiful as well, and of course Sailor Moon herself, Serena/Usagi. She may be a flake, but she's a big-hearted one.

[Mr. Marshmallow]

I'm also partial to Mina(ko)/Venus, because she's light-hearted, funny, and quite beautiful as well, and of course Sailor Moon herself, Serena/Usagi. She may be a flake, but she's a big-hearted one.

I always felt that was the most important thing about Serena/Sailor Moon. I think a lot of people (both in and out of the show) look down on Moon because she's clumsy and a ditz at times. But deep down, she is a very good hearted person and i think that's a far more important trait to have then training.

She has a pure heart and she's not insulting of other people (except Raye), she's not perfect but peace wise, I'd say she's just about right. Same with like Raven from Teen Titans. She may act like the spawn of Satan (actually in a way she is) and she gives everyone the cold shoulder, deep down she really does mean well.

One toon crush i always felt weird about is Nadia from Secret of the blue water anime. It doesn't bother me that she's black, I still find her quite attractive but what I felt weird about is that she is a good person deep down: she kept going about it all the wrong ways. She was very moody and pushy.

She often forced her own ways and beliefs on others and for someone who has a love of nature and life itself, I found that to be quite discomforting. I'm glad she mellowed out in the end, but still it's sad to see such beautiful characters resort to such distasteful and heartbreaking behavior.

Like Asuka from Neon Genesis Evangelion, she's considered like one of the hottest anime girls EVER! And yet, I am totally appalled by her rude and snobby witch like behavior. That's why toon girls are more likable then say RL ones in TV shows and movies, most toons have good, honorable qualities.

They don't use or abuse the opposite sex for shallow or greedy purposes, Gadget from rescue Rangers would sure as hell never do anything like that, same with Frankie.

[jekylljuice]

Do you really want to know my cartoon crushes? Okay, I'll tell you, but you'll probably regret it...

Foster’s seems the most appropriate place to start. I share a good percentage of other NF members’ love for Wilt, who is a truly delightful soul; chivalrous and enigmatic as well as greatly pleasing to the eye - basically, a multitude of things which are being echoed about him all over the web, and with fine cause. But as most of you should have picked up by now I also have this (some would call “peculiar”) thing for Kip Snip. Well, is there really anything wrong with that? He’s slimy, deceitful and, in my eyes, absolutely awesome. There’s nothing more entrancing than an enjoyable villain (seriously, it can be a highly attractive quality in itself), and there’s something about Kip’s shamelessly underhanded manner that I find extremely alluring (on top of which, I have infinite respect for any guy who isn‘t afraid to wear pink). So shoot me, I like him. I’ve liked him ever since my first viewing of “the Sweet Stench of Success”, though I must admit that becoming more involved in the online Foster’s grapevine seems to have increased my fondness and solidarity toward him all the more, to the point where it’s even come to overshadow my Wilt-adoration. I guess because while, as I stated, affection for Wilt is clearly in no short supply, Kip just seems so unloved and alone, the poor dear. Kip Snip fangirl-ism desperately needs a voice, and I’m only too happy for that voice to be mine. True, it’s perfectly possible (even probable) that I’m the only Kip fangirl out there, in which case I would argue that it’s all the more important that I speak up and let this glib producer’s many pleasing qualities be known. Love ya, Kippy! :berry:

It’s certainly gratifying to see from the words of the original poster, Emma, that I’m not the only girl out there with feelings for Sideshow Bob of Simpsons infamy - Kelsey Grammar has indeed been blessed with the most sensuous vocal chords in the world, no doubt about it. I can’t think of anyone who could have provided Mr. Terwilliger with a more powerful, enlivening and sympathetic portrayal than did he - to me, the man has oodles more charm and splendour than the rest of that jaundiced populace put together. Except maybe his brother Cecil. David Hyde Pierce has a very beautiful voice too. Oh, and I love Waylon Smithers a whole lot too. He is adorable.

I was very recently introduced by my housemate to an anime series called Weiß Kreuz, or Knight Hunters:Weiß Kreuz, as it's known in its English dub - admittedly, a good portion of our enjoyment of this series does arise from how risible the animation quality has a tendency to be, but every so often it can throw up interesting characters and scenarios, and I do find myself ever-so-slightly taken with the villainous Schuldig (perhaps ironically, since the prospect of having my mind read used to terrify me well into my late teens). Maybe it has something to do with that evil smirk he flashes in the original opening sequence - I've always been a total sucker for a well-formed evil grin. Of the good guys, I suppose I do have an inkling of a soft spot for Yoji, largely because I was impressed by a flower trick he pulled off in an early-ish episode.

You'll be glad to know that that's all I can think of. I think I've made you people cringe enough.

Wilbur Robinson from Meet The Robinsons... I am OBSESSED with him and that cowlick of his. But he's 13 and I'm 21! I disgust myself 8D But I can't help it, I easily fall for slim boys with sleek black hair

(I chose to post the model sheet for a reason, it inspires me =D)

The second is more my age XD Kuzco from The Emperor's New Groove (at least he's 18! ...Or 19 in the series), my all-time favorite Disney Movie (MtR being second runner up!) ..again the slim boy with black sleek hair (plus sporting a delicious tan)

Don't worry about the Ed crush there Zeit, I have a small crush on Lazlo himself xD I luff the little guy because he's so happy-go-lucky...I wish I was more like that.

Then I will tell you a tale, son!

Last tuesday (a week ago) I got my kitten, he was 7 weeks and 3 days... and I named him LAZLO after Lazlo on Camp Lazlo :cheesegrin: I got a friend who broke down in tears of laughter because I named him after a monkey

The most fun I have during the day is watching CL on Cartoon with my cat, singing along the themesong like the escaped mental patient that I am

Aw, what a precious furry baby you've got there Z! I love cats. :berry: Kind of off topic, but did you know Keith Ferguson has a cat named Lazlo? He's a Malaysian breed I believe. Cute as a button. :nyah:

Back on topic, another slight animated crush of mine is Miguel from Maya and Miguel. He's just so level headed and good mannered and polite. And athletic. I've always been keen on the athletes. And also the dark haired. ;)

Lynnie: oh em gee XD I had NO idea, actually! wow, so my cat has FHFIF connections too <3 sweet

Okay, I changed my avatar so now I have to actually say who my crushes are before people think i'm a pedophile 8D
Jenny from My life as a Teenage Robot
Gadget from Rescue Rangers
Frankie from Fosters
Sally from Sonic the Hedgehog
Krystal from Starfox Adventures
Misty from Pokemon

[Mayor Adam West]

Raven and Starfire - Teen Titans

Frankie and Berry - Foster's Home

Patsy - Camp Lazlo (Sure, she's a squirrel, but still, she's the cuttest of them all)

Hmm, yeah, that's all really from the top of my head, I mean, I think there are others, but I just can't think of them all right now....

[frankie_fan]

I mentioned before that mine are more favourites than crushes, but I thought I'd post them for the hell of it:

Frankie - Do I really need to point this one out? :frankiesmile:

Raven (Teen Titans) - There's something about supernatural girls and the clothes they wear. Raven is no exception.

Blossom (The Powerpuff Girls) - Anyone who believes in the American way, and dress (and looks) well gets my vote!

Misty (Pokemon) - My first crush. She's just a great friend, and funny when angry. ('I'm just as tough as you three! Now, are we gonna play, or are we gonna play?!?' 8D)

Jenny (My Life as a Teenage Robot) - She's Inspector Gadget for the teen age, and a great fighter.

Gwen (Ben 10) - Mr M's gonna kill me for this, I know it. :( Anyway, she gets me because she's not the typical stay-inside-and-be-safe character. She's willing to help out, even if she needs to kick some ass!!

Ami (Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi) - She's definately the cutest character I've ever come across.

Atomic Betty - A redhead who can kick butt and sill retain her self image at the same time!

That's right! I was told that he was a particular Ragdoll breed, if I'm not mistaken. :bloosmirk: Definitely a nice-looking cat, from what I've seen on the photos.

I totally agree on the Misty thing, she was more or less one of my first toon crushes (my first human one anyway). Now I'm not gonna be mad at you liking Gwen, truth is she seriously is kind of cute looking, she's easy on the eyes as they say.

I like that part of her personality, I just wish she wasn't so easy to bust Ben's chops, I think she does that more then anything else in the show and it gets annoying the first 1000th time you heard the same insult about his brain size or hygiene.

I actually liked Yumi from Puffy, I don't know why but I always seem to have a thing for the tomboys in anime or animation. Yumi I thought was cuter looking and I loved her hairstyle and dark punker outfit.

I have a dislike for Ben 10... but my niece made me watch the future episode when they all get taken 20 years into the future where Ben Ten Thousand rules. And. Wow. Just... wow. Gwen was looking HOT 20 years into the future D: I kind of like her now

I wouldn't call it a crush, but I think this lady is quite enchanting:

Her name is Kamichama Karin; I only know her because someone at MTS2 made a Sim out of her. I really like the way her eyes are drawn. There's an article about her on Wikipedia if anyone's curious:

Typical story from the "Magical Girl" genre but it looked kind of intriguing to me. Besides, she makes me smile, and that's all I ask of a cartoon. :)

In regards to them, I do actually recall some others too....

Arial - The Little Mermaid

Kim Possible

Kairi - Kingdom Hearts

Sakura - Cardcaptors

Juniper Lee - Life and Times of Juniper Lee (Even though she's 14.....)

And yes, I realise that Patsy is a mongoose and not a squirrel, but either way, it's all good :berry:

[frankie_fan]

Sakura - Cardcaptors

w00t! Another Sakura fan! :bloogrin:
