Margos: I suck at this game.. (Last one to post wins)

At the risk of being banned or something, can I ask while you are saying

It allowed me to provide some needed clarification on the subject.

You stated anyone can email or pm a moderator, but I don’t understand how waltmad was supposed to do this when the mod did not give a name, waltmad even posted asking how what he had done was wrong, so that he did not make that mistake again, but they ignored him and did not answer the question. How was he supposed to contact the mod for an answer if they were nameless?

This next post will show exactly how bored I am, and how much time I have on my hands. Since there have been so many one line pieces listed, I decided to do a whole script...

The UD chat that never was, never will be

Escapay:
Ah, the UD chat room.

(Disney Duster enters)

Disney Duster:
Hey Scaps!

(Wonderlicious enters)

Disney Duster:
I got a job as a Disney Imagineer!

Escapay:
That's great, have you got anything planned for the parks?

Wonderlicious:
Hey guys! And congrats on the job, Dusty one! It really is a dream come true! A sort of wish your heart makes...

Escapay:
Don't make a Cinderella reference! You know he hates that film!

Disney Duster:
Damn right! Which is why my tinkering on the Fantasyland project at WDW will be just right!

Escapay:
Oh, okay...

(pinkrenata enters)

Disney Duster:
Thanks to me, we're getting rid of the prissy sissy stuff! No tea parties with Belle, no tap lessons with Cinderella, no birthday parties with Aurora, zip! I've made it possible so that we'll have the Marvel characters make their home in Fantasyland!

pinkrenata:
Hey! Ooh, so somebody's finally raining on the princesses' parade!

Wonderlicious:
Marvel characters. Sure, maybe they'd fit better in Tomorrowland, or the Studios, but it's better than crap like Alice in Wonderland or Pinocchio! Disney, stop labeling those sort of films classics, as they're not!

Disney Duster:
I hear ya, brother! Plus, Cinderella's Castle is gonna become the Tangled Castle! Flynn Rider will kick that little vermin-befriending tart out once and for all.

Escapay:
And Rapunzel?

Disney Duster:
...nowhere! I'm so glad they changed the title of the film to take attention from her!

pinkrenata:
So no princesses? No funny talking animals? No fairytale magic? At all?

Disney Duster:
Well, we're gutting "it's a small world" to turn it into a screening room, where we'll be showing Beauty and the Beast non-stop, in its original form?

Wonderlicious:
Oh cool! The 1991 theatrical version?

Disney Duster:
No, the Diamond Edition colours! That's the way you're meant to view the movie!

Escapay:
Noooo, that's not the way I enjoyed the movie when I was 6! Why do they mess up with all the restorations?

(enigmawing enters)

Disney Duster:
Oh, just watch the movie and pipe down.

enigmawing:
What movie? Why is everyone shouting?

Wonderlicious:
The usual Beauty and the Beast Marky-malarky.

Escapay:
But, but...urgh, it's a travesty! I want the colours exactly like they are.

enigmawing:
Look, just calm down and have a Milk Bud, okay?

Escapay:
Urgh, why would I want some of that?

pinkrenata:
What about popcorn?

enigmawing:
Ew...

Escapay:
Agreed.

Disney Duster:
Gosh, this is getting too heated, I'm gonna go, I'm busy. For Monday, I've gotta finish up the latest sketches for the replacement for the Snow White ride: "Whack-that-wench". It's like the Buzz Lightyear ride in that it's an interactive dark ride where you've got to shoot nuclear rays (really just lasers, mind) at Cinderella and Aurora. The best part is that they appear increasingly mutated across each new scene!

Wonderlicious:
lol, bye!

(Disney Duster exits)

enigmawing:
So did you hear?

pinkrenata:
Is this about the fact that a Blu-Ray/DVD of Song of the South is finally coming?

enigmawing:
Yep, saw it on the front page!

pinkrenata:
Me too!

Wonderlicious:
Gosh!

Escapay:
I the lacy collar, and get when people mock it.

pinkrenata:
I also the lacy collar, and get when people mock it.

Wonderlicious:
Erm, guys, you haven't obviously read the last bit Luke put. Not that you'd like it.

pinkrenata:
What would that be?

Wonderlicious:
"New bonus features include the Disney Channel Circle of Stars singing "Zip-a-dee-doo-dah", a virtual Briar Patch and "Lace Against Time: Disney's Stupidest Costume Piece".

pinkrenata:
What?

Escapay:
Should I ever have any faith in Disney anymore? Distracting bad hues in Beauty and the Beast, a mockery of the lacy collar?

Wonderlicious:
Meh...

pinkrenata:
Awful!

Hey, corndogs.

So, what's new? You've not been on here recently.

AwallaceUNC:
I've just been chilling. Gettin' stoned, writing material for my new album.

Escapay:
Oh okay. Will we hear it on your podcast?

AwallaceUNC:
Look, I'm trying to move on from the podcast. I'm moving forward with my decks.

Aaron:
Oh no, another troll!

Guest_5697:
Actually, it wouldn't be.

Wonderlicious:
Then who are you?

Guest_5697:
I'm Julian Carter. Do I have to reveal my real name?

Escapay:
Well how else are we supposed to know who you are?

Guest_5697:
Just guess! Duh! Laterz...

(Tangela enters)

Tangela:
Hey guys, I'm back.

Wonderlicious:
Oh, erm, hey.

Tangela:
I know, it's been six years, and I was a bit unhinged when I was here, but enough with twisted doppelgangers and obsession with mice movies. I've graduated with a degree in film studies.

AwallaceUNC:
Oh man, really?

Escapay:
So no more of The Rescuers? Or cheaply made Goodtimes films?

Tangela:
I'll have you know that I did my final dissertation on the subject of desire and regret in the New German Cinema.

AwallceUNC:
Dude, I'm so stoned, I'm gonna have to go and make a pancake!

pinkrenata:
Typical awallace!

(AwallaceUNC exits)

Tangela:
I finally realised that The Rescuers is just a bit weak. A mass produced spectacle that has become quite outdated. No need for a Masterpiece Edition Blu-Ray or anything.

Loomis:
Oh god, it's him! Tangela!

Tangela:
Look, I've changed, please!

Loomis:
You did it, you were the first to think of me without them on! I do wear pants! And I'm not from Australia, I'm a bloody New Zealander, I tell ya!

pinkrenata:
Ouch, like Flight of the Conchords? Embarrassing...

(Loomis exits)

Wonderlicious:
Bloody dominions...

(Alan enters)

Alan:
Hey!

Escapay:
Mein Liebling!

enigmawing:
Yay! Where are you now?

Alan:
I'm living a humble life in a Thai Buddhist monastry. To hell with good grades, to hell with Ben Hur, to hell with cross-country travel to pick up a second hand copy of Beauty and the Beast. I've recycled my cardboard slipcovers, given my Disney movies to daycare centres and orphanages.

(Luke enters)

enigmawing:
Hey!

Wonderlicious:
How are you?

Luke:
Bad. I hate this site, I hate you all.

(Luke bans everyone, then deletes the site)

Luke:
Hooray!

That whole think showed how well you know us, because I actually thought Escapay wrote that at first because I was scrolled to the right past the avatar, and when I saw it was you, I was like how did he observe so many traits of me and him!

Wonderlicious wrote:The best part is that they appear increasingly mutated across each new scene!

That's my favorite part, I was laughing so much! Ahahahaha!!!!

Oh, that's actually a pretty neat idea, and the idea of tea parties with Belle, well, I actually think that's a good idea, too!

Oh, and the ending, awesome! Like, the best, funniest ending there could be! Like some kind of alternate universe ending that shows a terrible, hilariously never would happen what if! I love the "hooray!", other best part!

Wondy, I tip my hat to you. You've perfectly captured our opposite selves and turned it into forum gold.



I loved the returns of past UDers like Tangela and Alan! And Stoner Aaron is an amazing new character. You simply must write more misadventures for him. Does he still love Amy Grant? Do they share some Mary Jane?

Phan258: Awww. I'm the only person in the world that hasn't seen Tangled yet. I won't spoil it for all of you. And don't ask me any questions about it either, I have no idea what the plot is.

Seconded! CATS FTW! Most of the people who dislike CATS really just haven't taken the time to understand it. Really, it's rather gripping. Looking for all of the subplots is part of the fun! EVERY character has a backstory, and there are little hints to figuring them out.... I swear, it never gets old!

Well, I'm not Zack, but personally, Andrew Lloyd Webber on the whole annoys me. I like some of his musicals (Jesus Christ Superstar in particular, mainly for nostalgic reasons), but a number of them come across more as drab, capitalistic ventures, lacking a sort of wow factor. Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is quite frankly the definition of bland and cloying, and Starlight Express is perhaps the most gimicky stage production ever produced. The Phantom of the Opera is exceedingly cheesy but passable. I personally find Cats cute, though, and Evita has quite a few good songs.

Equally, I've always found the man himself to be quite creepy, and it probably didn't help that I caught his UK talent search TV shows (akin to American Idol, only searching for West End stars, here's an example of one of those shows). Everyone else was fine, but he came across as foppish and aloof for the most part, and the fact that he was given a throne as a chair was just embarrassing.

Anyway, back into the spirit of things...

Wonderlicious: I love Andrew Lloyd Webber!

zackisthewalrus: I also love Andrew Lloyd Webber!

Disney Duster: I agree with you wholeheartedly on everything!

Jackoleen: Sex appeal in a talking cricket or a circus mouse? Can't say I find any animated characters alluring. Shut your trap hole, you perv!

I see. Well, I think I agree a little bit on all of that, including the bit about Joseph and Webber being creepy.

However, Cats is pretty original and not a drab capitalistic venture. It doesn't seem to have a big plot, and that's the thing, it's very much more a theatrical, and emotional, experience, that I think some people just don't get. Like Margos said, there also seem to be subplots and backgrounds actually intended in the show that help make the thing even deeper and more touching and...wow.

But also, it's generalness and not getting to know the characters in the usual way lend themselves to putting what the characters go through onto us. Who doesn't regret something? Who doesn't wish to start their life over? By the way, I am talking about the cats' second chance at their lives over in the musical, not Mr. Webber!

Oh, and Webber has his throne in all of them. I don't mind it so much. I think we should feel some people are very important and amazing. I know his throne is really harmless and he's not some kind of a god!
