cartoon crushes

come on now, admit it. we've all had a crush on a cartoon character at some time or another. (damn those animators.)

here's your chance to name any animated creatures you've fancied in the past (or�indeed, the�present). :D

bah. okay fine then. :D

let's see, first up, when i was five i had a total crush on the cartoon version of ghostbusters' peter venkman. :D oh, and i also had a crush of sorts on he-man. o_O

and then i fancied disney's aladdin for, like, years. *le swoon*

i had a�thing for�freakazoid for a while for some reason, and i remember i had this dream where he came to my school and asked me out (wtf?!) :D

oh. and right now i have an absurd little crush on arnold (of hey arnold fame), because he's such a gentleman. and i loff his check shirt and sweater combo. :D

i'm sure there's a really obvious one i'm missing here. hmm.

I had a total crush on the redhead chick Thundercats girl.

And the pink princess girl on Voltron.

And not animated, but I totally crushed on Death and Morpheus in Sandman.

Mmmm...I thought most depictions of her were achingly beautiful.

*grin* that would be princess allura, dear :)� here, just for you:

Cheetara?�Oh, I agree...nice little crush going on there.

On Voltron, I liked Sven, the guy who was in the black and white uniform that Princess Allura replaced.� He was pretty cute.

I sooooooo had a thing for Keith - the black lion rider who wore the red and white uniform.� Talk about your hottie!!!!!

Most recently it's been Inu Yasha...ok, so he's half demon, rude, crude, and obnoxious with very little manners.....he's still cute in that sorta-looks-like-a-puppy-dog (literaly) way.

Also not so much a crush as i just think she's way cool...Ed from Cowboy Bebop

!!

*sigh*

I'll play... just cause.

Keith - Voltron (Lion Series)
Hazar - Voltron (Vehicle Series... hey, he went good at the end)
Scott Bernard, Rand�- Robotech, New Generation
Nightcrawler, Gambit - X-Men

there are more, but I'm blanking on them at the moment

mmm... Remy.... he is by far still my favourite X-Men character.� animated, i like the 1st show & not the characters in Evolution so much.� hopefully they'll get him in the next movie.

then of course, there's Vash the Stampede from Trigun.� or maybe it's just the red trenchcoat i love so much... you decide.

so anyway... the first thing i thought of when i saw this category was that scene in Wayne's World where Garth asks if Wayne ever thought Bugs Bunny was attractive when he dressed up as a girl bunny... you know the scene i'm babbling about.

see, that's the exact quote i was fumbling for when i started this forum, but couldn't quite remember what it was or where it was from. :D

Garth: "Did you ever find Bugs Bunny attractive when he put on a dress and played a girl bunny?"
Wayne: "No." (Laughs) "No!"

heeee. :D

i think there's another quote from somewhere about fred flintstone's wife, but again, can't remember it or where it was from. gah. :D

oh I love that! (Listy and the cat!)

one of the most classic moments in TV history for Rod and I!

I remember having a crush on Peter from the Ghostbusters cartoon, and Spiderman!

mmmmmmmmSpiderman.....

~J~

yes yes, replying to m'self:

for those with failing memories like me... may i offer for assistance:

i'm off� "researching" ta

angie - who ordered Robotech complete DVD collections for Masters and New Generation just this past thurs *grin*

OMG!  You remember Robotech!  how sweet is that!

Okay, here goes...

Robotech - Max Sterling (Macross) and Sean Phillips (Masters)

Nightcrawler (TOTALLY!) from the X-Men

And let's not forgot Optimus Prime.  I know, I know, He was a transformable Mack truck, but my God...His voice was so...so...sexy.  I always told my friends that if he were human I would make love to him.  Sigh...

Trent Lane, Jane's brother on Daria.

That boy...damn :)
*S*

ha. i know a real-life jane. she was in my art class, and she spoke like jane and looked like jane and everything. woo.

oh, and it's my ultimate ambition to go to a fancy dress party as daria and for no-one to have the faintest idea who i'm supposed to be. :D

two years at my curent college and I still get called daria on the occasions when I smack some sense into the yuppie�freshmen.� They mistake my sharp wit for cynicism.�
Must...keep...self...from beating down the freshmen this year...

*S*

Hmmm...let's see...I admit that I had a crush on Iceman on Spiderman and His Amazing Friends, but only in his Iceman form and also Firestar, but only when she was out of her outfit.� Then there was Cyclops/Scott from X-Men (the live action Cyclops from the movie is pretty hot too) and the guy who flew the helicopter/motorcycle�vehicle�from M.A.S.K.� Oh and Lady Jaye and Snake Eyes from GI Joe....I watched way too many cartoons as a kid. :)

woah... and just what episode showed Firestar out of her outfit? ;)

I was so gonna bring up M.A.S.K. and GI Joe, but I'm blanking on the characters names... and then i just got distracted by surfing 80's cartoons :D�

angie

Battle of the Planets is what got me into Americanized Japanimation and later high quality Anime... actually, it started with Thunderbirds 2086, then Battle of the Planets, then Voltron, then Robotech, then nothing for a very long time until college and a friend had Robotech on video... and then I saw Vampire Hunter D, and Akira, and Venus Wars... and i was hooked...

but i digress...

Battle of the Planets rocked the house... although I always had to laugh at the bad guy from SPECTRA because it looked like he was wearing lipstick ;)� I didn't have a crush on him but Keyop was my fave character.. .esp after finding out why he spoke so strangely in the american version ;)

I had a small crush on the "normal life" counterpart to Jem. I can't remember her name. Pink-hair Jem was too over the top.

I loved that show. I think it was mostly because it was a rare cartoon where people wore different outfits. Most cartoons pissed off a clotheshorse like me because the animators were too lazy to make different outfits. :)

Jerrica Benton.

know what's scarier (and Norg can attest to this)? I remember a bunch of the songs from the show and no, i didn't buy any of the cassettes or dolls that came with cassettes.

Poor Kimber... she really was the red-headed stepchild, wasn't she?

Angie

I always figured it was animation laziness. :) Easier to pump out weekly animation when you didn't need to worry about continuity with outfits. Just always make 'em the same.

i like cartoon.

and who doesn't like a perky mermaid wearing a sea-shell bra?��

(and a toothpick waist!)

I'LL KILL THAT SKINNY BITCH!��

*cough* bygones....

~J~

I'm so glad you didnt' add Lynn Minmei to that list... otherwise I'dve had to crawl through this forum and *thwap* you ;)

I think one of my favorite moments was watching Macross- Do You Remember Love (one of the original Japanese productions that the�US Robotech was based on) and Minmay (Minmei)�was going off on one of her typical spoiled whiney tirades and Hikaru (Rick Hunter) hauls off and slaps her... and they show it in slow motion too...

A friend of mine still hunts online for pics of Nova Satori from the Masters Saga, man did he have a thing for her... :)

Angie

optomus prime-transformers

night crawler, roge-Xmen

.... seems like there was more...

i�vaguely remember an ep of teenage mutant ninja turtles where�shredder took off his mask and was revealed to be totally hot. yeah. :D

i had a crush on leonardo. the turtle. yes, i know he's a turtle. shut up. :D

I had a thing for�Raphael (he was the sarcasitc one in red, right?) from the first Turtle movie....i think i just felt sorry for him cuz he was the one that got ambused and had the stuffing beat out of him.

It's okay because Brian dates humans.

btw, when I saw the episode where Brian thinks he fathered puppies with Seabiscuit (or whatever that dog's name was) I was oddly disturbed. He is a dog too, afterall. But I guess you can't have it both ways. You can't date both dogs and humans.

i was more disturbed that the puppies were actually fathered by ted turner. :)

For some reason, that was less disturbing to me (maybe because Brian is more human?). I think I was just in shock by that point.

on the half shell, they're the heroes four, in this day and age who could ask for more?

whoops. you're talking about the turtles, not hte song.

that song bugged me to no end for just that reason.� you are not alone.

i loved the movies.� i adored the comic book.� i ... thought the cartoon was an ok passtime between the comics and the movies. (:� the soundtrack for the cartoon was pretty cool tho ... at least, from my memory of it.

Lion-o and Tigrah (Thundercats)

Lotor (Lion team Voltron)

Goliath (Gargoyles) - he still holds a special place in my heart

Hazar (Vehicle Team Voltron) - he's been a love interest for 2 decades, and still is

I have never even watched the show. But whenever I'm flipping past or see a commercial...I think Kim Possible is wicked cute. :)

dmitri from anastasia was *hot*.� yowza.� and yeah, i think i had a crush on aladdin, too.� damn that princess jasmine and her overly-large come-hither eyes...

but back in high school, my friends used to accuse me of always going for guys that resembled doug, of nicktoons fame, either in manner or in appearance or both.� so maybe i was living out a cartoon fantasy, in one way or another?

...and maybe i'm revealing too much.� heh.� right-o.� carry on.

Demitri from Anastasia was hot for many reasons...not least of which was that he was voiced by one John Cusack....talk about your hottie!!!!!!!!

on a non-cartoon side note...i really can't wait unti Runaway Jury comes out next month.

"come-hither" eyes? *laugh* i've not heard that one before.� goes right up there with the description of a car's color i once heard as "Hello Officer Red"...

�-= george =-

I have some of those! :)

OMG YES JUSTIN.

what was it about justin? i dont get it.

i was thinking the same thing when i wrote my entry. "wow. i'm so not a furry."
