Last time I posted a pic of my oc, I forgot to have one of the layers. It's a small change, but it matters a lot to me, and I think it adds a lot

did frank ever said why he prefered not to go with the first idea they had with daisy?

I think it's actually a good decision since I'm not sure if the pitch daisy dynamic with donald would've been as healthy as what we got in season 3. I do wonder if he ever said why he decided to do that since it doesn't look like the 3 caballeros had an influence on the show (I know some people didn't liked how daisy was here).

Exciting but Dark Thought

When I'm potentially close to dying, the last thing I'd like to before kicking the bucket is watch "Last Adventure " one last time 😢😢😢

even if not perfect, I still think the finale is fine

While it's one of my favorite episode, I wouldn't say it's perfect due to the animation error that slept through (it's still quite fluid but there are some color issues and a double penni), writting wise I still think it work and way too many claims made against that episode feel much more like headcanon to me (per example, the idea that webby got her skills from scrooge dna when it's not mentionned by the show or the claim that the mcduck will have a bad future when the finale scene is such a obvious happy ending [scrooge being flawed good doesn't mean he won't be a good parent, beakley's flawed but it didn't prevented her to parent webby, same with donald and the boys]). I think the finale also show the show is about familly in general, part of it is about found familly yest but it's not just that and the message is still there even if it switches characters (webby still has plenty she see as familly whom she's not related to, hence I found the claim webby has no found familly anymore to be odd). A bunch of critic targetting it actually get contradicted by the episode itself (scrooge doesn't only care about his favorite if he really did, he wouldn't have acted the way he did toward beakley or be wililgn to sacrifice his life for donald per example).

My main critic with the show ending is more toward disney than the show itself, I still wish disney woudl've done more with it, evne with the finale we got they had tons of possibility to keep the story going (comics, podcast, lore books...).

launchpad shows guenine comeptence as a mechanic despite him not knowing the terms

The guy can repair the sunchasser and make it able to fly again after each crash with just a picture, he doesn't even ahve a manual yet he's still able to do it . If there's 2 areas I'd say launchpad is good, it's that and driving the submarine (it seems he's better at that than flying a plane).

LP is dumb but at the same time, he's still able to show competence in some stuff (all things darkwing included, webby may know eveyrthing about the mcduck, LP know everything about dark).

I don't think it was neccesary for bradford to insult may and june (webby) when they landed

To me, this show bradford didn't treated them nicely and that may was telling the truth on him seeing them as failures. Bradford could also still have a prisonner webby get the papyrus, he can just force her to do it, but he had to be a manipulator (tho I suspect he may have caught that june was webby in disguise and let her in voluntarly, once confronted to beakley, it'd make it way easier for him to get her to do what he want). I also noticed bradford called "june" (webby) FOWL 1, meaning he may not even bother using their names .

For me, bradford interaction with the 2 do show how manipulative he can be since even with the abuse, he can still keep them under his thumb until his mistake by lying to them on the answer they seek so much. Bradford's a good manipulator in my opinion given that he manipulated scrooge and mcduck enteprise for years, he know wich button to push to make someone do his things too and he did shaked scrooge confidence too (+abused him too).

A ducktales 17 video game could verry easily work

You already have the ideas for the adventures with the end being a treasure (and maybe the return as part of the level, per example getting out of a temple with traps), the bosses could easily have been the show main bad, the characters also don't need to be nerfed to work in the game, lena can stil lface challenges if faced by the blot (or magica using an artefact/her own magic). The game could also have moon and spear of selene level (I see it kinda like the donkey kong country return rocket barrel level but different since it'd be in space).

I reccall a video game was in devellopment but got cancelled, another missed opportunity here beside the merch, comcis and podcast (disney coudl've still done way mroe with the show I think).

Rewatch - great tidbit

I grew up in SoCal and watched the original series and recently rewatched it. One of the many thing I noticed was Cal Worthington and his dog Spot reference, that is awesome :)

it's nice to see scrooge learned from the spear of selene in the finale

Rewatching it, I liekd how scrooge pushed beakley to tell the truth rather than do what he did, he fully acknowledged he did a mistake back then and he doesn't want beakley to do it. He also think the familly can handle it by now. I do think beakley telling eveyrone including webby before she leid to her would've been better since at leas they'd have more to work on to get FOWL scheme and webby woudl've been less hurt than after she was lied to about her parent (I do think her being the most important thing to beakley was guenine tho).

It's why I don't think fanfics set post finale should portray scrooge doing the same msitake again (unless it's a full on AU, I'd be more fine if it happened there, if the fic is meantt o tie with canon, I'll think it's OOC tho).

If DuckTales 2017 was TV-14 what character would swear the most?

For me I think it’s either Glomgold, or FOWL members but what do you guys think

there's not a definitive duck canon

Since there's multiple authors with verry different ideas for the characters and who are in the familly or not, I don't think there's a definitive one, meaning authors can play with it (cf how some of the reboot proposal had scrooge raise HDL from birth while another dropped webby but kept beakley). Even more if the unvierse is meant to be its own thing like the reboot (it being inspired by something else doesn't mean it has to stick to the previous canon because DT 17 is its own continuity, it' snot meant to be don rosa continuity or barks [who didn't had much continuity]).

There's also not a definitive way on how to draw those characters, reading the picsou magazine and super picsou géant, I noticed verry diverse art styles from the italian comics per example, it's not just barks or rosa style.

It's me or may and june only thought webby related familly mattered to their reason to exist

Rewatching that scene where they see webby board, it does feel like they got different views on what familly is compare to webby, june cutted the strings because to her, it only represent people genetically related to webby (tho I don't think june thought she was oding anything bad there, I still think lena reaction was a bit extreme [and actually accidently helped june since she noticed della carrying the sword and fellowed her to donald boat to get it]).

May also did thought that beakley still ahd secret (wich was actually correct) but she thought it was only relateed to webby parents, no tthe mcduck themselves (she doesn't know yet about the reveal).

To me this does show that may and june aren't the same person as webby, webby would think familly is also people related by love, not just dna.

a thing I noticeed on rewatch is it kinda feel like scrooge already saw them as familly since he thought FOWL was making more of "us" (meaning the familly), it's also why I found the claim he's ignoring may and june weird.

the show had a bit of a habit with its finales

This is something I noitced with both magica and lunaris, they both ended defeated by the season finale. for me, it's why I found the claim that season 3 was meant to be 2 season story odd, bradford would still have been defeated even if we had a 4th season and I think ti'd make more sence to reveal the twist in the third season and then fellow up on that since it give more time to devellop the aftermath.

Another thing I noticed is none of the finale solely had the main triplet be the focus, the shadow war wasn't a dewey only episode, one could argue it's a scrooge episode and a lena episode too, same for moonvasion, it wasn't solely focused on louie, it's why for me the finale wasn't different when it had 2 leads with huey and webby .

webby calling scrooge dad doesn't cancel the message that familly isn't blood

it's a critic I never understood because to me, it flt like part of the fandom forgot scrooge at that point doesn't know he's related to her, yet he still accept to be webby dad, meaning that part is still found familly. Webby also make it clear to beakley she's still her granny and that she forgive her. THe paprus also didn't appear to webby solely because of genetic, if that was the case, may and june would've gotten it, they got scrooge dna too but they didn't, meaning there's more to familly than blood.

Webby also still has plenty of familly she's not related to, she still see launchpad as familly per example and violet and penni aren't related to her too so I think it's wrong to say the message is destroyed when it's still there.

One shouldn't forget the show isn't only about found familly, it's about familly in general (the line is "familly is the greatest adventure of all" after all), hence wbby can be both about found familly with beakley and anyone not related to her she see as familly and biological (tho even with the mcduck, it's still found familly since none of them knew when they took her in, she was familly way before the reveal).

donald and della already started to soften scrooge when they meet him

Before that, he seemed to have been solely focused on business and thought he didn' thad time for familly (and the magica flashabck showed he didn't saw it as a strength before too), scrooge also only saw the adventures as a way to get richer, before they came in, he didn't enjoyed the adventure for the adventure, that's something he learned with them.

He was more flawed in the passt, but I don't think the time before the spear was bad for the 3 considering how nostalgic scrooge get in moonvasion with him missing donald and delal squabling. I also don't think he sohuld be described as a bad parent for the 2, both would ahve more problems with him if he was (he can be more flawed at that point but sitll not a bad parent).

To me, the frist adventure also shows scrooge progress as a person and his character point since he progress thanks to having a familly.
