That was more of a Close Captioning error then anything else

We NEVER would've gotten away with pissed, although I guess we kinda did.

I guess silly little mistakes that get everyone talking is part of the fun of being in a business that involves transcribing spoken dialogue in real time.

Closed captioning is not to be trusted. We usually have it turned on in our household just for the heck of it, and we've seen some really hilarious stuff throughout our time, I can tell you.

Anyhow, I'm looking forward to seeing this movie. Hopefully I can squeeze in the time to watch it at some point this week.

Absolutely amazing, it was great having Foster's come back to the tube with such a fantastic movie. Here's an interesting pic that appears near the end, it's only shown for a frame or two... hopefully Princess Frankie appears again in a future episode!

Tell me about it! Sometimes we'll use it if the tv has to be turned down (like if someone's sleeping) and some crazy stuff has come across it sometimes. Like the time 'Disney' was spelled 'Diz knee' on one of the news channels!

Oh and yes, it'd be nice to see 'Miss Princess' Frankie in another episode! XD

Nice pic!!!

BTW which ep did you get that avy from?

Frankie_4_Prez · 12-03-2008, 05:42 PM

This avatar comes from "World wide wabbit", from the part where Herriman interrupts Bloo selling tickets for the imaginaries to watch the "video".

I forgot to ask this about Destination Imagination before... Why do you think the Hero came to rescue Mac and co. near the end of the video game scene? After all, he wanted them to fail their mission.

I have a few thoughts:

a) The IF isn't really so cruel to let Mac and co. actually die
b) The gummy zombies weren't really going to cause serious harm
c) The IF wanted to torture Mac and co. himself, rather than let them suffer by other means.

Exactly right.

When I heard the audio on my PC, I could easily hear that it was "peeved", though on the TV, it wasn't as clear for me.

Where near the end exactly? I have it on DVR - I can look for it when I get home from work this evening

I finally saw this! Absolutely fantastic episode/film, though I don't agree with it being the best one. The antagonist is a very brilliant idea (Is he a parody of something?), Frankie finally got appreciation from Mr. H, and they even managed to squeeze in a ton of good jokes in between all the fast-paced action and adventure. A+

Did anyone else get the self-referential joke near the end? It goes something like this (I can't remember the exact wording).

Frankie: But he's a friend, and aren't friends what Foster's is all about?
Bloo: No! I'm what Foster's is all about!

That screencap comes from the "apocalypse" scene just a few seconds before the world turns completely white. I downloaded the wmv from the downloads section of this site, so if you have that, it's at 56:28. You may be able to get a few more slightly different-looking frames from the DVR recording...
