Some thoughts, observation, and questions after watching Duck Tales:
Beware, there be spoilers.
· Why aren’t the seagulls anthropomorphized in this world???
· I wonder if Scrooge knows the AFLAC duck?
· Why is Launchpad the only duck with pants?
· The way that Scrooge uses his cane is a little bit sexy.
· Dewey’s song/dance scene in Atlantis was priceless, I could so see Ben doing the dance in the studio.
· I have a powerful need to see video of each of the main characters in the studio to see their facial expressions and body movements as they perform their voices. Especially David.
· Is it bad that it’s more difficult to understand an English speaking Donald Duck over a Scottish speaking gazillionaire duck?
· Scrooge not knowing the names of the nephews, priceless.
· The nephews making fun of Scrooges accent, very funny.
· The flat expressions of Scrooges face counteract David’s extremely animated voice inflections. But I still love Scrooge.
· Is anyone else disturbed by the fact these ducks don’t seem to float on top of the water?
· Looks like David has managed to get himself yet another role with a long coat. Apparently the long coat requirement in his contracts carries over to animation. Well done.
· I have a powerful need to see David Tennant in a top hat, cane, long waisted red coat, and spats. Pants are optional.
· Since I’m an adult with no kids, is it appropriate to watch Duck Tales ala no mas pantelones?
· The humor is excellent, I laughed out loud several times. Even the sight gags were great.
· Glomgold stating, “Scrooge thinks he’s so rish, and so Scottish, but I’m wearing a kilt McDuck, A KILT!!!”
· After watching the lovefest between David Tennant and Ben Schwartz over the past couple of days, the relationship between Scrooge and Dewey is even more priceless.
· An angry duck is funny. An angry Scotsman is funny. But and angry Scottish duck is hilarious. Donald angry is funny, but Scrooge angry is downright fabulous.
· I wonder who David thinks is more adventurous; Scrooge McDuck or The Doctor?
· Has The Doctor ever considered how his adventures might be enhanced by going without pants?
· Webby is the best, and I love how she squees!
· Dewey is definitely my favorite nephew.
· “I am not your secretary!”
· Less Donald, more Scrooge, please.
· I’m already looking forward to Season 2 now that the writers and the world have seen how the cast interacts with each other.
· Scrooge doesn’t have eyebrows but has very expressive upper eyelids. He seems to favor his left eyelid/brow.
· I need to see Scrooge in a kilt.
· If they don’t do a Doctor Who reference within the first season I will be highly disappointed.
