• NOW LIVE! Into the Woods--new character species, eerie monsters, and haunting villains to populate the woodlands of your D&D games.

Greatest Cartoon Ever.

The Jackie Chan Adventures.

There was a Dragon that needed twelve magical talismans to free it from its imprisonment, but last season, the Dragon was defeated, and his henchmen got the talismans. Now they have all kinds of magical abilities. Imagine, a bunch of flunkies who can fly, shoot firebeams from their eyes, are superstrong, etc. There are 12 talismans, and each thug got one. They decide to go rob a store.

Best lines:

Henchman in 70s Outfit: *looks at his three talismans* Astral Projection? Weird. Motion to the motionless? What the-? Yin-yang? Man, why did I get all the worthless talismans?

Big Warrior Henchman: *jumps 30 feet through the air, lands, and kicks a guard* MULE KICK!

Henchman in 70s Outfit: Aww, c'mon! You're not even using yours!

Big Warrior Henchman: *lifts first talisman* Horse for healing. . . . I am not not easily harmed.

*lifts second talisman* Rooster for levitation. I can already fly. (He can jump really high)

*lifts third talisman* Dog for immortality. There is not a man alive who can defeat me.

Henchman in 70s Outfit: . . . Trade ya?



A minute later, the 70s guy is levitating in the air. Then: Immortality and healing? That's redundant.

He sees another henchman get knocked out, so he flies down, and swaps his healing talisman for the guy's firebeam talisman. He then begins to fly through the air, the talismans around his neck like those big 70s medallions. Looking like this is the happiest moment in his life, he begins shooting flaming eyebeams while flying over the city police.



This show is great.

I'm sorry, but I prefer Uncle. He is the wisest and wittiest character on the show, and he knows magic.

One more thing, why does pig talisman shoot firebeams? It does not make sense, and does not fit with Chinese zodiac.

One More thing, do you think these shows would make good D and D adventures? They have lots of flavor, and innovative uses of magic. Someone should write them, but not me. Do you want to break Uncle's hands writing?

One MORE thing, you must tell me why Jade likes Toru so much. In second episode, Toru was going to cut Jade open with a sword, but we trust him now? Aiee.
 


Trust me on this one: Jackie Chan Adventures translates best to Feng Shui. Jade even fits into the "Scrappy Kid" template!

Jade: scrappy kid
Jackie: everyman hero
Uncle: Old master
Toru: big bruiser

...and so forth. It's great!

Very funny cartoon.
I like Hawk Fu (sp) and all the henchmen.
HawkFu "Minnow Swallows Whale"
Toru "What was the last one?"
HawkFu " I said Minnow-"
Toru *puches him*

Great for Feng Shui and just general quotes to use in everyday conversation.
