And from my PoV, we *Need* to wait before even thinking of striking again at Kat or his new "patron".
Sure, we are a King, with all the far-reaching power and influence on our home theatre this "title" brings with itself. But thers the rub - Pap´s current stomping grounds of Paris are *Nowhere near* our home theatre, which are the continental US and more specifically their Midwestern states.
Right now, DEI is still pretty boxed in where we started out in terms of power projection. Heck, the only King I can name to definitely have overseas "territory" in Pap´s rough area would be Xanatos thanks to him having grabbed Chef Skinner´s Frozen Foods a few turns ago.
We definitely *Don´t* have anything like that going on, which means that we´d only have some field operatives to put pressure on Kat atm - that´s just inefficent as fuck. Once we managed to Expand into Europe (meaning not until a few turns in the future, if we want to grab Glomgolds offer ASAP, which we definitely should do), *Then* we can still think about stabbing at those two again, if it turns out to be worth our time, energy and pettiness.
does that sound sound? To me it does.
Naah, I kinda got fed up with one-note villains like her a while ago.
I for one definitely wouldn´t mind grabbing her as our answer to Olympias Edna Mode.

Did you just ignore the part where I say to wait?

Also Papillion is by all measures a King in his own right. It's why he's able to put pressure someone on Cruella's level so casually.

No, just extrapolating why I´d advise to wait

Edna works for Draktech, not Olympia.

...Damn, her waddling around during the quest so much and seemingly havign some kind of rapport with Hego - a definite Olympia employee - apparently scrambled my brain.
But my point still stands - as long as the issue between Edna and DEI (or rather more specifically, *Mirage*) hasn´t been resolved in some mutually-agreeable fashion, we could use a fashionista roughly on par with her (if not as versed when dealing with Supers and their needs, admittedly) in case we need to get it on with our glitz and glam fashion-wise (event-wise, I´d prefer the Duke of Detroit, but that´s another matter entirely)

Late question: But that Hegosaurus that was mentioned in the update before, is that a dinosaur with Hego's personality and powers? A Humanoid Dinosaur? Is it an Extreme Dinosaur?

... I vaguely remember having watched that series (or at least its intro) as a kid...
The Nineties truly were a rather *peculiar* decade, if a show as corny and "edgy" as that could exist side-by-side with something as intricate and complex as freaking *Gargoyles*
Speaking of Gargoyles, I couldn´t help but realize that the reddish "flying dino" looks pretty similar to Brooklyn in terms of basic design.

In doubt there's always the Sun!
And i think that, the "retconing villains as misunderstood anti heroes" got old at the first malificent movie.
Doing with cruela was a mistake imo.

I think it just matters how well a villain and they story they're in are written (and for villains on the big screen, how well they're acted). You can categorize villains as twist villains or one-note villains or anti-villains or what have you and there will always be both hits and misses in every category - they don't have to drag each other down.
DC's Anti-Monitor is as goddang one-note as a villain can be, but it doesn't stop him being one of the most imposing and memorable threats in the setting. Bishop Ladja from Dragon Quest 5 is my favorite villain, and he's evil to the bone with no redeeming qualities whatsoever who torments and bullies you every time he appears. It can be grating if done poorly but a fully evil villain can also really draw you in by their actions. Twists can be good or bad, retcons can be dumb or tell interesting new stories.
There were room for two retcon villain movies, or three, or five, if they'd all been written well. Cruella was just not as good a story or movie as the others in my opinion.

Funny, I dont see where in the title it says "Complain about Movies I dont like" Get this derail out. You want to complain about said movie, do it in the thread for said movie, not someone else's quest.

The last post about that was from two days ago. Why are you trying to start that discussion up again instead of just letting it be over?

That's...
Actually horrifying.
Good god.

No. That is not Greevil. Greevil is evil recycling and evil eco-friendly choices and devices. That? That's just twisted. Pure and simple

Not that much, snakes are suppose to take the skin off. This is twisted, from Owl house.

Sure. Just have Jumba alter the genetics so the dogs grow a new layer of skin under most of their body and then pops off the redundant layer on top with the fur, regrows new fur on the skin underneath and repeats the cycle. The dogs might look like sphynx cats for a while but I don't think that is very horrifying.
It would probably be easier than trying to make and use giant furry mammal snakes.

I don't think you've really considered how that would go or the fundamental differences between scales and skin.
One day your dog starts scratching. As if it has a unbearable itch all over its body. It scratches and scratches. Rubs vigorously at any sharp corners it can find.
Soon fur and bloody strips of skin start to peel off. It's horrible and disgusting. The dog rips and chews every bit of skin it can reach. Bloody bits get everywhere.
Eventually, it's over. The old skin has been completely flayed off. Your dog is now covered in new tender pink skin and will start growing in new fur.
The yearly spring molt is over.
I really don't think this is a way to get usable furs.

Jumba could alter the nerves so the dog doesn't get itchy.
Jumba could also make it so the old skin pops off cleanly in one go like an old scab instead of making bloody strips.
The new skin doesn't have to be tender.
The sensible solution would have been grow genetically engineered meat substitute flesh-melons or something like that instead of dinosaur farms.

Hmm.
I guess that's one way to get a feather boa.
