The show should have been called Kappytown: Right Back At Ya! Kirby hardly did anything.

Kirby's just about the only Nintendo franchise I never played. Hell, I even played a pokemon title or two (at a friend's house...when I was in middle school...and I'm not proud of it).

I'm sure the games are fun. I tried watching Right Back At Ya, but couldn't get into it. I kinda liked King Dedede and Escargoon, but Kirby was about as interesting as a sock drawer.

Why would you regret playing a Pokemon game? Also, Kirby games are awesome. He's actually a much cooler character than the ****** show made him out to be.

Yeah, dude. Pokémon games are awesome, and so are Kirby games. He can suck things up and take their powers! He's like Mega Man, only he steals powers without breaking a sweat. What a beast.

Considering the pokemon craze at the time, and the fact that I was a teenager back then, playing the pokemon games was a little embarassing. Didn't say they weren't fun.

That's what made Kirby so cool. His powers, but the show just did stupid crap with it. Of the episodes I saw, Kirby was involved in the outcome...I don't know...two or three times? He really didn't do anything except act helpless, eat, or use a stupid frying pan. That cooking power was deadly as hell in the games.

I love the Pokemon games, and still do, I'm also watching the anime considerably, after three seasons of being utter crap, it actually has improved a great deal with the writing.

Although Misty is extremly missed, May is more of a pale imitation of her, and her brother is worse, at least every other character from the first seasons are still there, could'nt they have just gotten rid of Brock in order to bring in viewers to Pokemon Chronicles?

Kirby's early games are easily favourates...a little uncertain on his later versions, but it's still decent to see him get exposure.

The Kirby in the show was not the bad ass I remembered from the games. I dunno about this movie. And I hate that "Piyo! PI-Yo!" sound he makes.

The last pokemon games I ever played were the original red and blue ones. I found them to be quite fun, but never worked up the nerve to go into a store and buy them. Now I just don't have as much time for video games as I used to.

I did watch the cartoon, though. In private. I made it up to the point where Tracy replaced Brock and then lost all interest. To be honest, the formula was wearing mighty thin by that point, too.

Team Rocket attacks. Pikachu zaps them. They fly off into the sky.

Abolutley right, though the Ornage Island seasons were mostly filler, they were decent, the series got VERY bad during the Johto seasons.

Advance is a huge improvment from previous seasons

I think I watched the first season of it, not even the whole way through. Then I got completely tired of it.

The last episode of Pokémon I watched is the one in which mind-controlled (by Drowsy) Pokémon (including Pikachu) were attacking their masters. Strangely, that was my favorite episode.

The anima is crap, but at least the Japanese version had music from the games orchestrated. This so called "movie" is actually the last few episodes from the series they never aired crammed into a direct to video release. Basically 4Kids final excuse to milk Kirby riding on the wave of his latest game on DS.

The games are total badass. I'll always stick to the statement that Kirby's Dreamland 2 is one of the best games ever. Ignore the series, it's crap in any language, but the 4Kids version is just mind melting.

Oh, and it's pronounced "Poyo!"

A movie based on Kibry's adventure from the nes game.What is the point.The remake is called Kibrys Nightmare in dreamland.

The game is only the good thing.I played the kibry games before they are just a run of the mill 2D game.

Well Nintendo ripped off the stealing enemy weapons from the MegaMan games for the kirby games.

Dude, you really got to learn to not barge into a thread and attack what the people in the thread are talking about and fans of.

And no, they didn't rip it off. The way Kirby does it is completely different. Kirby switches between enemy powers while going through the game at any time and can just drop it and get another. Add that to kirby's ability to float, suck up regular enemies to spit as weapons, and the animal buddies and you get a totally different experience. Heck, the first Kirby game didn't have the ability to take enemy powers.

I like the kirby games also.I just don't want another feature length video game movie again.

It started in the nes Kirby's adventure game.Then it went on to now.
