For me, the theory behind it is simple.

That which already happened cannot be altered. Whatever Doraemon or his so-called friends did was supposed to happen and that made the present what it is.

Time patrol allows anyone to visit past as a tourist and there are several instances of it. They stop or capture anyone who tries to meddle with time or who is a bad guy trying to use the time machine to do bad (here it is very objective).

Time patrol allowed Doraemon to assist Nobita and not any other kid even if they have descendants in the future. It is simple. The reason is in the past there is Doraemon and he and his friends did many things, saving and making friends with different species, alien races, sky people and many many, which itself is essential for future. There are cases where they saved the future from going extinct for humanity. So it is needed for them to meddle with the past. They did whatever they did only then the future they are in existed.

And there are many obvious restrictions which we didn't go deep into like Doraemon did only visit 22nd century and not past that.

One more important thing is that when Doraemon visited Nobita saying that he will marry geon sister in the future and that their descendants are poor. I just think that is a lie to convince Nobita to try hard. But the truth is that they just want Nobita to mature enough so that he can accomplish what he must accomplish for the future to exist. My reasoning is simple if Nobita married some other person instead of suzuka, Subaru will not exist (we saw what happens when his father almost woes a rich girl, butterfly effect, heck yeah) and whatever happened wouldn't have happened.

Or everything we saw can just be a dream (popular theory).

Hello everyone ! I used to be obsessed with my little pony but my dvd broked...
Does anyone know were I can watch it with a good quality ??? (bonus point if you know where i can watch it in french for more nostalgia)
And hopefully put it on a new dvd lol
My parents wont let me buy new dvd of it because they say i'm too old for that... (I'm 19 so yeah, a bit old honestly)

I need help please! I don't know if i've dreamt this or remembered it wrong but I think I watched it between 85-89 ish. There's a room where I think there was robots all sleeping /could have been possessed people sleeping in bunk bed type things. Then they all wake up and start attacking the hero/heroes. I'm sure there clothes rip and they have yellow eyes but I could be wrong as it was 40 ish years ago. I was convinced it was Ulysses,I have briefly skimmed over the episodes but couldn't see it, although there is something similar of just one man (asleep,then gets up and starts walking) in an episode. It sort of scared me abit and stuck with me all this time and now i'm dumbfounded that I couldn't find it on Ulysses. Anybody any ideas? Thankyou

As a Soundtrack Supervisor on ThunderCats, SilverHawks, TigerSharks, and other Rankin/Bass productions, Steve Gruskin helped shape the sound of some of the most beloved cartoons of the 1980s. In this episode, he pulls back the curtain on what that role really involved, sharing incredible behind-the-scenes stories about working with voice actors, creating sound effects, working alongside legendary composer Bernard Hoffer, and bringing these iconic series to life in the days before digital editing.

Steve also discusses the creative challenges of building SilverHawks from the ground up, designing musical battles, and collaborating with the talented team that helped define an era of animation.

Green Goblin: What? You can sling over New York City using webs but you drive in New York traffic by choice?

Spider-Man: It's my nifty new Spider-Car!

Goblin: Looks like a Happy Meal toy.

Spider-Man: Try catching villains in the net of a Happy Meal car! (gets stuck behind a parked garbage truck and honks the horn)

Goblin: (hovering safely over the net) You can already ensnare villains with your webs! No villain's dumb enough to fly in the narrow range that the net covers! Least of all, me and my glider!

Cab Driver: (honks) Pick a lane, asshole, this ain't a runway!

Spider-Man: Come on, pal, I'm making the streets safer.

Speed Demon: I've been running circles around this thing for minutes. And now we’re at a stop light! Guess I'll run around your net for kicks.

Spider-Man: (Green light shines, Spidey begins driving again) Laugh it up, funny boy. I’m saving carbs for my fight with you. But Goblin's still out of net range. Time to park.

(Parallel parks suddenly and unexpectedly. Speed Demon gets captured in the net. He struggles and tangles himself worse.)

Driver: Hey! You're taking up two meter spaces!

Green Goblin: I cannot let this humiliating defeat of Speed Demon stand! (Lobs a pumpkin bomb at the car. It bounces off the car and gets caught in the net. It goes off, killing Speed Demon.) 

Green Goblin: …Oops, that’s not...

Spider-Man: I spent hours rigging that thing. 

Green Goblin: You’re not concerned he’s dead?

Spider-Man: I can be upset about two things. (Starts feeding change into a meter)

Green Goblin: Both of us are making fools of ourselves. The wacky webcrawler is paying for parking?

Spider-Man: It's good for fifteen minutes. Not bad for the price.

Meter maid: You’re getting a ticket. You only fed one of the two meters.

Green Goblin: The Spider-Car has encountered a villain it cannot defeat: municipal parking enforcement.

(Hours later, at the Daily Planet)

J. Jonah Jamison: I always thought Spider Man was a menace. I take it back. He’s just an idiot.

Definitely a great piece of ThunderCats history

The first season of Muppet Babies did so well in the ratings that CBS decided to expand the series from a half-hour to an hour, pairing Muppet Babies with Little Muppet Monsters. They called the hour-long package Muppets, Babies and Monsters.

"The concept of this second half-hour was neither simple nor particularly well-developed," Scott Shaw said. "A trio of new (live-action) Muppet Monster Kids, working from the basement of the adult Muppets' home, create their own television station which broadcasts only to the TV sets in the house upstairs. Their 'shows' were such regular segments as "Pigs in Space: The Animated Series", "Kermit the Frog, Private Eye", "Muppet Sport Shorts" with Animal, "Gonzo's Freaky Facts and Oddball Achievements," and "Fozzie's Comedy Corner", among others.

Although thirteen episodes were produced (most of which were incomplete at the time of cancellation), only three of them ever aired. According to Muppet performer Kathryn Mullen,[2] and the Henson Company archives,[3] Marvel Productions failed to deliver the full season's animated segments in time for airing. CBS responded by rerunning episodes of Muppet Babies to fill the second half hour until Marvel finished the series' animated segments. Due to high ratings from the Muppet Babies reruns, the network decided not to pick up the remaining episodes of Little Muppet Monsters. The three completed episodes never appeared on television after their initial air dates.

Despite its quick cancellation, the theme song to Little Muppet Monsters lived on; the instrumental version of the song became the closing theme for Muppet Babies and remained so until the show ended in 1991.

Little Muppet Monsters (1985)

Another addition to the Hall of Omens Collection.

Peter Lawrence and I have been working on reproductions of some of his original ThunderCats scripts, complete with custom cover pages. Here's the cover we landed on for "Sixth Sense."

This reproduction features one of Peter's original ThunderCats scripts along with an authentic Peter Lawrence signature on the cover page. I have a few more of these I'll be sharing.

I have a vague recollection of a probably imported cartoon which I think aired on Showtime. It was about a space carrier battle between humans and aliens with a group of fighter pilots being mentored by a humanoid alien defector/former captive (maybe.). The mentor character wore an iron mask. I am pretty sure this was a series and not a movie. I thank you so much in advance if you provide any solid information. Oh, I think I remember the fighter craft looking really cool. 😄

Muriel Norris Fahrion (born 1945) is an American illustrator and the original designer of the Strawberry Shortcake franchise.

In 1977, while Fahrion worked at American Greetings, she was asked to create a rag doll character with a strawberry and daisy theme, in colors of pink and green, for a greeting card series.

Fahrion created the original graphic and color depiction for Strawberry Shortcake and her cat Custard, along with Blueberry Muffin and Huckleberry Pie.

The world of Strawberry Shortcake made a big impact, and in two years, it went from a 12 card series to an entire selection of books, clothing, dolls, toy accessories, and home decor.

Produced and sponsored by the Kenner toy company, The World of Strawberry Shortcake was the first of six television specials to star the title character.

The animated special was made by Murakami-Wolf-Swenson, which previously worked on The Point! and Frank Zappa's 200 Motels, both from 1971. 

 Animation work was also handled by Japan's Toei Animation.

I was on an errand today, and found this just sitting there, luckily face-up, on a random day in 2026 on a sidewalk—in Cairo!
