So I just finished Let’s Get Dangerous! I loved it!
Dewey and Launcpad thinking they’re keeping Drakes secret is adorable.
I was actually really sad when I realized Bulba was going to be the bad guy. I freaked when I first saw him, and then I saw his interactions with the kids and Scrooge. He’s so nice. Also look at him holding Huey and Louie, they’re so tiny!
I freaked when I saw the tower! Drakes entrance had me reeling! And they brought back the Ratcatcher! Launchpad you’re better make the Thunderquack again!
Also this is Launchpad’s reaction when he first sees Drake. I don’t care about “Uncle Launchpad,” They are dating and you can’t change my mind!
Dewey fanboying just as much as Launchpad! Also how he goes straight for the smokebombs! That’s a freaking Randy Cunningham reference!
I love that Fenton made Drakes gear. You can tell Drake likes him. I cannot wait to see his reaction to finding out he’s Gizmoduck.
Also I love W.A.N.D.A. I can see her and Uno being friends. I’m still holding onto that. I want some Duck Avenger!
That white suit looks familiar. Original Negaduck reference? Perhaps.
Is there seriously no Negaduck in this episode though!? Not even a glance at the Negaverse through the Ramrod!
Scrooge not knowing Drake. Seriously dude you borrowed his suit, and his quip. He got beat up for you!
Drake humoring Dewey by being on his show is amazing. Just Drakes interactions with Dewey!
Gosalyn broke into the tower!
She goes straight for the arrows! We’re getting Quiverwing Quack from the very beginning!
Dewey and Gos. “Let me be your Webby.” They are so going to be best friends.
Launchpad freaking tackles Bulba! And bull riding in the background.
Launchpad protecting Gosalyn from Bulba. The look he gives her shows how much he cares, even though he just met her.
Drake not even a second thought as he jumps off the building to catch Gosalyn!
I think they did the cape chute in the original to.
Launchpad running out to catch them!
This look Drake gives Launchpad when he picks him up after tripping on his cape! They are dating!
“Uh I left it with Bulba.”
“Why didn’t you grab it?”
“I was saving your life!”
I love Gosalyn, I love Drake, I love all their interactions.
Bulba using Lets get Dangerous. Oh man chills!
THEY’RE BACK! THEY’RE BACK! THEY’RE BACK! THEY’RE BACK! The Fearsome Four are back!
Also what did they do to Bushroot. He’s wilting. Bud please give him some water.
“When there’s trouble you call DW.” Thank you Owlson, this made me so happy.
Drake freaking out, and rightfully so. The worst threat he probably faced before the moonlanders was Beagle Boys.
Fenton calling while he’s fighting Bushroot. Dude one task at a time. How can Drake not tell he’s wearing the helmet?
“Quackerjack. A clown. Bushroot. A house plant. Liquidator. A cup of water. Megavolt. Yikes.” Seriously Megs gets the yikes, he’s a glorified toaster. If any of them get the yikes it’s Quackerjack.
I will say though I am salty about ‘Uncle Launchpad,’ Cmon people let us have our Drakepad! There was so much shipping fuel in this episode!
“Supervillain located in the abandoned toy warehouse district. There’s an entire district for that?”
You’re seriously picking Quackerjack to go up against? Go to Bushroot. He’s so easy to manipulate, and you pick Quackerjack?
Drake and Launchpad singing the Darkwing theme song!
Louie finally learned to pick a lock.
Bradford trying so hard to keep F.O.W.L. secret.
Giant robot? Not sure that’s really Quackerjacks style.
“You’re going the wrong way.”
“You mean away from the thirty foot robot!”
Liquidator feels off. I don’t know if it’s the voice, or the new design. It just doesn’t feel like him.
No one knowing what Dewey’s charades mean. Also his little naruto run!
Dewey knowing exactly who Bushroot is and still goofing off. The root system is pretty cool.
Launchpad going to talk to Gos. He is her dad.
Drake just passing out from exhaustion. Gos wrapping him in his cape is so sweet. Launchpad crying when he sees them!
You think the villains would realize this isn’t their Darkwing. Maybe they just don’t care.
Launchpad being so happy when Gos asks him about Darkwing villains.
“A sea monster ate my ice cream!” Yep that’s DT 87.
Jambalaya Jake and the bug Master? Launchpad there are so many other villains, you could have at least picked some good ones!
Megavolt naming the camera.
“Anyone can do the right thing when it’s easy. It’s what you do when things are hard that makes you a hero.” Launchpad you are not her uncle. You are her dad.
Bushroot with a vine, snake tail thing and surfing on vines. I love all the new abilities he’s getting.
Why doesn’t he talk? Seriously Gosalyn shot him with an arrow and he squeaked.
Launchpad throwing Megavolt! I am so convinced he has some sort of indestructibility and a bit of super strength.
“You’re an actor and a Launchpad, how are you gonna stop four supervillains”
“Well technically Bushroot isn’t really a villain, per say.”
“That’s right, I keep forgetting you’re nerds!”
Thank you for saying this! Bushroot is an Antihero if anything. We don’t really see any of his personality here though. He’s almost an entirely different character.
Thorns! Those are new! Drake just got stabbed! I really hope he has some sort of protection under the jacket.
“This is just like episode 3!”
“Beauty and the beet! We could really use an episode 21 right now!”
“Just us Justice Ducks! Underrated crossover episode.”
These are actual episodes and they’re geeking out about them while fighting Liquidator!
Drake lassoing Megavolt while still in Liquidators grip. You knew that was going to hurt. Also Launchpad trapping him under a trashcan.
“A sea monster did not eat my ice cream.”
“What does Quackerrooney even mean?”
“Why are our heads so round?”
Gosalyn’s sacrifice to save everyone is fantastic. All this started because she wanted to get her grandpa back. The fact that she was willing to give that up, especially because she’s so young, is amazing.
And the villains are gone. That sucks. At least we sort of got them for one episode. They needed more screen time though.
“Gizmoduck saved the day!” You shut up! He was on the sidelines! We didn’t even see him actually beat Bushroot. Who knows he might have just retreated. All Giz did was cut the vines.
I love how Launchpad just scoops up Drake and Gosalyn. Like I don’t care that Drake hasn’t technically adopted Gosalyn yet. He and Launchpad are her dads.
But Launchpad please plan a little more. You need some sleep to.
My overall reaction of this episode is very positive.
I freaking love that they brought back Michael Bell as Quackerjack! A little upset though that all Banana Brain got was a cameo.
My one complaint is Liquidator and Bushroot really weren’t acting like themselves.
I’m not sure how much I like their new designs. Liquidator is a bit to bulky for my taste, and no offense to Keith Ferguson but he just couldn’t nail that ‘salesman’ voice like Jack Angel. He was great at Megavolt though.
But what was going on with Bushroot? Dewey stated in the episode that he’s a brilliant scientist. Drake and Launchpad pointed out that he wasn’t a villain.
Like I’m not opposed to him being mute like some people have suggested. I think that would actually be a really cool idea.
He really looks and acts like a husk though. He looks to much like his form from Twin Beaks for me. His foliage is practically grey when it should be a bright green. His petals are faded and drooping around his face. And his eyes. They’re pure white when he should still have the blue eyes of his non mutant form.
I understand taking artistic liberties but they completely changed him. I also understand not getting a new voice actor, to honor Tino Insana, but Bushroot could have at least acted like himself. This version felt more like Spike than Reggie.
Besides that though I loved the special! I can’t wait to see more Darkwing Duck episodes.
