    i like the care bears
  • but do you find them overly interesting? do they compel you?

    no

    I actually had ABC Inc bust into the American Greetings-Cookie Jar-MoonScoop legal clusterfuck in 2011 to buy them (along with Strawberry Shortcake), but I've done little with them

    Cookie Jar is also on the Wall of Missed Opportunities

    I remember liking the movie that was basically Faust + the Care Bares as a kid, and the newer series when I could catch it?

    My brother and I could never really get into the original.

    Believe it or not, I actually like the 2007 DIC designs for the Care Bears, although slimming them down does kind of defeat the whole purpose, which is to make them look cuddly.

    I'm thinking about how TV Tropes seems to think that the 2007 Care Bears and MLP:FIM sharing voice actresses is some unique thing. It isn't; several of MLP:FIM's voice actresses showed up fairly frequently in DIC productions.

    ...okay, this wasn't a DIC show at all

    derp

    I liked the Care Bears when I was little; we had both movies on tape (recorded off the TV) at one point. The one with the Faustian plotline was the second movie, by the way.

    You can tell Nelvana made them because all of their voice actors are on both movies.

    I watched the Care Bears from time to time when I was a kid; I was never overly interested in them but something about colorful cartoon characters appealed to me at the time.

    It was vaguely interesting how Care-a-lot looks like Fluffy Cloud Heaven, and their purpose in life is to observe humans through telescopes and come down to protect them. Though as far as I remember, that only gets taken to its logical conclusion in the movie where their lifelong enemy is a tempter who first appears as a red dragon.

    Carebears villains are bizarrely hardcore. They've fought Basically Satan, Basically The Necronomicon, Basically HAL and this guy image

    Alice isn't a princess she's a queen

    ok she's a Disney Princess occasionally but that makes little sense

    and since when does the Queen of Hearts need proof to do anything?  off with his wizardy head

    Does she really count as a queen though? I mean, her coronation never finished.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I remember finding one of the Care Bears movies (not sure which one) oddly compelling when I was a kid.

    Other than that, never much interest.

    well, she reached the Eighth Square

    iirc there wasn't a coronation ceremony as such; there was an examination, which she appeared to fail, but then everyone called her Queen Alice at the ensuing party anyway

    and of course, there couldn't be a Princess of Hearts, since there is no princess in a suit of cards

    It's Nelvana pushing the boundaries of animation :P
