| From wikipedia:
"A polluting counterpart to Captain Planet named Captain Pollution appears in a two-part episode “Mission to Save Earth” when Dr. Blight steals the Planeteers’ rings, creates polluting duplicates of them, and distributes the duplicates to most of the other eco-villains (Greedly and Zarm were absent from this gathering). She gives Plunder a Deforestation Ring (opposite of Earth), Nukem a Radiation Ring (opposite of Fire), Sludge a Smog Ring (Wind), Skumm a Toxics Ring (Water), and keeps the Hate Ring (Heart) for herself."
"A relatively common criticism of the show was that its theme [a superhero show] made it unhelpful as an educational tool. While it presented pollution and environmental destruction as bad, it was argued, the very nature of the show meant it did not explore the reasons why pollution and environmental destruction occur; instead it presented them as the result of extremely deliberate action by evil villains, who often were out to damage the environment purely for the sake of doing so with no greater objective, or because of an exaggerated and overly stereotypical motive as one would expect from a supervillain rather than a regular human." | | |

| I met a self proclaimed hustler today at Carl's, a drunk man in his ...ohhh.... mid 30s perhaps. After talking for a while and determining that I was not 'bugged' because every "mutha !@#%er is 'bugged' these days, you gotta watch out!" he decided to make me a bet: he told me that he could hustle at least 7 dollars from this guy in line. The wager: 1 dollar. Well I agreed and off he went. After making this guy feel incredibly ackward (the whole line shifted to accomodate his advances) my hustling friend returned empty handed. He then proceeded to tell me that he himself was "high as !@#$, and I'm drunk and if I had a couple more minutes I could get the whole line's money... I'm one bad mutha !@#$er, man I'm as dangerous as !@#$, I'm a criminal, just got out last week!". Continuing on he would eventually ask mrs bradshaw if she wanted to jog with him, she said no because she's a pastors wife and to this he said "now ain't that the !@#$, you went too far wit it, it wasn't no date, I was just asking if you wanted to jog wit me! and why you go calling yourself a pastor's wife, you are the wife of a pastor.... the wife of a pastor, ain't no good reason to be a pastors wife". Some time later, Mrs bradshaw eventually asked if he knew about God and he said he couldn't talk about "cuz not enough time right now to tell you all the things I know"
As we left I realized that this man was perhaps a desert farther and I should have used the encounter to obtain wisdom from him. But when I turned around he was gone! | | |
| QUESTIONS POSTED BY MATT THAT DEMAND ANSWERS
You have a sister, and more importantly, is Dr. Doom the same Dr. Doom as in fantastic four? -Yes and Yes. If so, how did they fight him? -Normally they kinda quadruple team him, with mr fantastic and ben doing most of the work. Did they every team up with Captain America? -Yes. Why do police suck at capturing evil villains? -Villains have super powers/complicated gadgets/weapons/armor and guards. Why don't superhero's just kill the villains, or put them in a huge ring and make them fight each other like gladiators? -Most super heroes believe that every one has a speck of good on the inside, that everyone deserves a second chance because they can change and turn from their evil ways. You really can't make a super villain do anything, thats why putting them in a gladiator match would be futile. In fact it would probably give them a chance to team up together (its happened in more restrictive environments like Gotham's Prison or in the Ultimates it happened at the Triskelion). Do think a lot of people would go to see the match? -If it were possible then yes. Who do you think would make the best match? -Magneto versus Mr Sinister What do you think about a tag team match of D.C. Villians vs. Marvel Villains? -I think its a complex idea that can't be answered in under 30 minutes. The short answer would be Marvel would win, but the reasons are many and varied. Of the villains, who has the best henchmen? -Dr Doom: his henchmen are 'doom bots', exact robotic replicas of himself that rival him in power and intellect and these doombots normally cause just as much trouble as he does. When one is destroyed it normally elicits a response like "look what we almost did!" Henchmen are pointless, why did the villains insist on having them? -A villain is just one person and its hard to carry out their complicated plans as such. Did they get paid? -Some do, but normally its upon completion of their task. For instance: if Mr Freeze holds the entire city for ransom and actually gets the ransom then they get paid a percentage. If so, how much? -Depends, as little as 2% and as much as 15%. If not, why they keep working with them? -Some henchmen actually believe in the cause, for instance Joker's henchmen may actually seem some value in poisoning an entire city with laughing gas. With exception to like King Pin or Lex Luther, how did most evil villains support their operations? -Many villans are already wealthy from occupation (Mr sinister [genetics], Dr Doom [principality], Hobgoblin and Shocker [mercenary] Venom [journalist] Mr Freeze [doctor]) other villains are funded by like minded people who believe in what they are doing (Magneto, Red Baron, Crimson Dynamo) many villains just steal what they need (Green Goblin, Shocker, The Riddler, Joker) Is there a such thing as too many questions? -I've heard of the concept but I have yet to see proof. | | |
