    That's really interesting! Thanks for the explanation! :)
  2. Gatanui
    Really? How did that work?

    What's up with all the doom and gloom and people saying that BIONICLE is going to end after the third year? Are people jumping to conclusions again?
  4. Gatanui
    This pretty much sums up my thoughts.

    Indeed. Note the decline is extremely sharp and seemingly exactly when September starts. Looks like LEGO stopped using it as a pre-roll commercial in early September (perhaps even September 1st), which is when the views practically declined to zero because that is where the views came from.

    Huh? Am I the only one who feels they are moving a bit away from CCBS towards technic again?

    Not really, there were 13 episodes in 2013 but 20 episodes this year.

    I do. :P Don't ask me about Kraata, though. :P

    I've been considering that plot twist ever since we were first introduced to the story. Imagine if it turned out Ekimu was the bad guy all along and he had been the one to betray his brother! I think that'd be a cool twist. :P

    Which store would that be?
  11. Gatanui
    It says "Criador", not "Creador" and it's actually Portuguese, from what I can tell. Definitely not Spanish.

    I'm okay with Ninjago's more episodic nature. It makes it more easy for kids to get into Ninjago without watching everything that came before while the ongoing character development and the constant new reveals about Ninjago's and Wu's past are a bonus for long-time fans. I've really been enjoying the past two seasons and while I loved all that came before as well, I was getting tired of the Overlord by the Reboot season.

    You are brilliant. :D
  14. Gatanui
    What was wrong with it? I can't recall.
  15. Gatanui
    I was even like "WHAAT, only five bucks?" before I saw the picture. -_-

    I agree with you. This "hating on Greg" bandwagon has been jumped on way too extensively in my opinion. It's fine not to like his style but hatred is not okay.

    Of course you're not the only one with your opinion, I never claimed otherwise. Obviously I'm not the only one with my opinion either, though. Saying LEGO shouldn't focus on the target audience more than on the old fans is a fundamental mistake. It has nothing at all to do with elitism or with morality. That's ridiculous. Toys are made for kids and so are these. We should be glad LEGO is putting so much effort in appeasing such a tiny percentage of its customers in the first place. Pretending we here are somehow important enough that LEGO should even do such a thing as to find an equal ground between our wishes and those of the target audience is exactly the sense of entitlement I was talking about. The target audience, which are the kids of today, and of course LEGO's core values are the absolute priority. Only then and only if it doesn't contradict any of the former LEGO can try to cater to us.

    Gotta agree with DV, Lyichir & co. Honestly I'm not sure where this sense of entitlement comes from. I see it all the time even outside this situation in particular. Some people seem to think the world has to revolve around them or something and when something isn't exactly to their liking, they try to back up their opinion by making up a claim of their opinion being that of a supposed majority and pretending that their opinion is objective fact. LEGO has changed in the past years and some things are not coming back, others are here to stay for a while. You can be sure LEGO has put much more thought into this than any of us and LEGO's sales and profit numbers from the past few years seem to prove them right. And here we have it again. Why would LEGO care about you and your opinion in particular any more than it should care about that of other people here? What's more, why should they value any of our opinions higher than those of the target audience who actually buys the sets? It's not like LEGO hasn't done any focus group research or anything. That's just what I meant about the sense of entitlement.

    Nope, you aren't. :)
  20. Gatanui
    There can never be enough.
  21. Gatanui
    Thanks for the great and sensible analysis of Von Nebula! Kind of redeems that he was handled pretty poorly in the episodes.
  22. Gatanui
    No, it hasn't.
  23. Gatanui
    Both my brother and I got Kopaka. :P
  24. Gatanui
    Talking about bravery, you seem to have forgotten Merida from Brave?
  25. Gatanui
    Yay, thank you so much! :D Too bad I missed all the episodes, but I was sleeping during that time anyway. :P
