Really not as unavoidable as you'd think, I would be inclined to say after that reply. Legolas Send a noteboard - 13/03/2012 10:26:42 PM
Probably, I know the movies make their rounds, the anime references are a bit shoehorned to make it diverse appeal since I really don't watch them much myself either. The upside to Amerocentric quizzes, I suppose, is that the media is so widespread you foreign devils have at least a shot at it. I had to google just to try to find a Belgian cartoon... and this is what I got, WTF and NSFW. Which frankly scares the hell out of me and I assume is a parody but nevertheless was right up near the top of "Belgian TV shows", showing the futility of searching that one and tempting me to open up an entire thread on it. Ideally I'd like to do quizzes on the really more obscure arcana like 'what was the name of the actor who played Romulan Commander in Stark Trek episode 'balance of terror' and what other role did he play?' but I think that stuff's got to be reserved for down the road themed quizzes, till then I'm just going for whatever seems pretty well known for the genre, and that's probably gonna be 90% US stuff.

Seriously? That's your reaction?

Believe it or not, I'm a little more cosmopolitan-minded than to think everything that isn't American must be Belgian, or to care if your quizzes fail to include anything Belgian. That said, since we're discussing cartoons/comic books, perhaps Belgian ones do in fact have more international appeal than American ones. You might at some point in your life have come across this cartoon called The Smurfs, or heard some vague reference to this character called Tintin. Or one called Asterix - though that one's French, not Belgian. No offense, but this is one of the dumber replies I've seen from you.

I take issue with three of those. - 15/03/2012 04:29:39 PM 876 Views
Well the definitions aren't that ambigous - 15/03/2012 06:11:03 PM 944 Views
These seem to be getting increasingly obscure... I suppose that makes sense in a way. - 13/03/2012 08:49:04 PM 843 Views
Mostly a byproduct of why this quiz appears so soon after the last - 13/03/2012 08:58:43 PM 890 Views
On this one more than all the rest, nationality will tell, I guess. - 13/03/2012 09:03:12 PM 855 Views

I think you're being a trifle unfair - 14/03/2012 12:19:41 AM 832 Views
From where I'm standing, you're the one who started taking things too seriously. - 14/03/2012 07:26:53 PM 824 Views
