We actually have two girls, which, yes, is very weird.

Went into my gran to show her my recently aquired bounty, thought she'd be proud of my budding entrepreneurial skills.

She made me give it back

There's a surprising amount of cartoons that are animated in Ireland. I did security for one of the places about 7 years ago along with Havok and Guinness. Was great fun wandering the offices looking at the walls and seeing what cartoons were animated in that studio.

Just found out as well that one of the girls in my D&D group does a lot of the animation on cartoons, although it's mostly cartoons for the younger kids.

This is giving me a kinda strange image. Especially since how old would you have been 7 years ago? O_0

I also remember being on a train once and the girl that sat next to me started sewing a pouch, then she took out a load of D&D dice and started rolling them over and over. No lie...I was scared

Don Bluth moved Sullivan Bluth Studios to Ireland in the 80s. The Land Before Time was produced in Dublin believe it or not!

I only looked that up recently after watching the film and wondering why the hell there were so many Irish names in the credits!

My mam was telling me that one of my cousins worked for the studio. He drew me a little Peter Rabbit picture when I was a wee babby. Had it on my wall for years. Must see if I can find it.

Apparantly he had loads of artwork in his attic related to the studio and his mam threw it out thinking it was junk :eek:

Winner stays on sorts all them kids that won't let you play. They be all cocky like and you'll be a like kicking their ass on street fighter turbo.

On 80's 'toons. Ulysses 31(?) is boss. Super hair, intro and it's animated by some French crowd. They did some good stuff in the 80's in France(in league with the Americans and Japanese)- Ulysses, Jayce and the wheeled warriors( or as its know in france, jayce and the conquerors of the light) and the mysterious cities of gold!

3 classis series there and all should get Hollywood treatment.

I think Michael Bay should direct them, he's made some really enjoyable, taunt, well scripted and coherent films lately.

Most of those great shows were Japanese/French co-productions.

Mysterious Cities of Gold was a favourite of mine.

Been playing this game, kind of feels like a cheap version of Castlevania.

Pretty sure it's the same engine.
