Aw, come on, they weren't even TRYING before they summoned Captain Planet! Quami could've used Earth to block off the polluted section of the river, then the kids could've gone in and cleaned it up. AVATAR THE LAST AIRBENDER is better at cleaning up pollution than these dumbasses, and the Avatar team only did it once!
I am still confused about the major plot point of the show. Where does Captain Planet go when he's not summoned? Does he live in another dimension where he can walk around all the time? Is he a spirit? Why give something intelligence and humanity when you only use it as a weapon? And what good is the power of Heart? Heart can't help stop poachers, put out a forest fire, or do anything useful. And as for this episode, how can science duplicate magic rings?
@hyoboy81 That would be a horrible idea. Captain Planet wouldn't stand a chance against BUCKY; Captain America would probably kill the guy by accident in an arm wrestling competition!
@Trinivalts Good isn't balance, really. To be a good person you have to do good deeds, no? Same with evil. You can't really be called evil for inaction, only by doing evil things. Balance and imbalance are separate from good and evil.
@Chronische You don't see what's wrong with u're argument?!? Good and evil aren't some monolith axioms that u can simply state in sentences like yours. U didn't define good or evil, and I don't think u really can in that fashion. U can very well be at least to some degree evil/ignorant cuz of inaction. (This is what I mean with the non-monolithism in this issue) After all (im)balance doesn't have to be separated from action, it's a way how to look at the bigger picture.
@Trinivalts Sure they are, and I just stated them. Good and evil require actions, not thoughts, to be defined in an individual. You can't day you are good then go off and vivisect toddlers, now can you?
Nor can you claim to be evil and do good works. Ignorance isn't evil. Apathy isn't evil either, just... depressing. Doing something for balance means doing something to maintain the status quo, the way I think you mean, which can be good or evil as long as it eventually keeps the balance.
@Chronische I don't view balance as status quo. Good is the balance between, sentient beings who do experience various lvl's of discomfort, if someone asserts itself on the costs of others discomforts that's evil to some degree, even if it's absolutely trivial. If U keep looking at concepts as degreeless absolutes then u won't understand what I mean.
@Trinivalts I DO view balance as status quo. Good is good, evil is evil. Most people are neither, as they do both in small amounts. They preserve the 'balance'. Good and evil can be measured in degrees, but good isn't balance. It is doing good things. Doing nothing doesn't make you a good person, just a person. Doing evil makes you evil like you said, though. Not all evil people are mecha-hitlers, after all.
@Chronische Well, ur view makes no sense to me then. Cuz I don't see how I could just so randomly say, good is good, evil is evil, it's an empty statement, it doesn't define good or evil, to just call something like that, that's like dadaism, good is fish & evil is cheese. U leave out the 'eye of the beholder', nothing is inherently evil or good. What u call good & evil, I would call positive & negative, unreasonable positiveness also is evil in my view, cuz it mostly leads to that.
@Trinivalts Good IS good and evil IS evil. Sure there are certain societal differences, but for the most part everyone believes certain things to be good/evil.
There are, in fact, things inherently good and evil. Good would be helping those less fortunate, evil would be senseless murder.
'Unreasonable positiveness'? Like what, Captain Planet?
@Chronische U can state them as tautologies as much as u want, it won't make it true, good and evil are subjective, not objective as u might think, u can't define a term using the term being defined, that absurd. Helping those less fortunate could very well be unreasonable positiveness, cuz that can lead to no help at all in the end. (spoiling people, them misusing your help/funds) There has to be some control in it.
@Trinivalts You know what i meant, stupidity of my definitions aside.
True help isn't blindly giving money. It's giving HELP, assisting people so that they can hopefully help themselves. It isn't help if it ends up making them worse off in the end. There is nothing but empty feelings of goodwill towards yourself every time you put money in a donation jar without knowing where and how it is spent, but this is all beside the point. they aren't fully subjective as you would put them. ~
@Chronische they r 100% subjective, u just said that right here. It's those altruism feelings. People simply expect something good for themselves in the future, that is how useful it was, worked at some point and it went standart, through evolution, so now everybody has it to some extent.
But u're equateing help with what I pointed out as too much positiveness, that's not what I meant. Giving money for unknown purposes thinking it's for good is exactly that, and so it leads to evil in some lvl.
@Chronische Altruism is a product of natural selection, so it obviously was useful for group survival.
Well, that's just semantics, I consider ignorance evil, cuz it's very much the root of other evils. It's not an active evil so it seems less of a one, but definitely a potential.
@Chronische There is more to it than that. like I said, there are common definitions of the terms that every culture would follow, like murder being evil and charity being good. Good causes unrest, as it can make people strive for themselves against the wishes of those who would have them otherwise. Evil causes unrest too. It can make people rise against it, or have them follow it for lack of alternatives. Balance is neither, as it would see things unchanged... balanced. Balance is stagnation.
@Chronische That's not my definition. In my terms it is seeing the balance between individuals as I said before. That unrest is just a side product it doesn't really mean that much compared to some bigger evil.
@Trinivalts It can. Unrest leads to people no longer stagnating, they do new things... not all of those new things are pleasant. Unrest leads to turmoil, which can allow a bigger evils to take place easier. It can allow good things to happen to, like deposing a despot or (hopefully) peaceful change in government. To maintain a balance between individuals, you have to have nothing new ever happen. That is stagnation. Your definition is silly.
@Chronische U got that completely wrong, I never meant to imply that balance isn't a process. U simply can't have that stagnation what u're talking about in nature. What u said IS stagnation, but that certainly isn't my perspective of balance.
@anxresi The Voice actors can be 1/3 of the problem but also you have to throw in the voice director and the writers since the voice actor is dependent of the other two for effective performance.
now tell me, who is the target consumer? Who WANTS a pohto copyer that makes evil copies? I don't think anyone is going to want it unless they want evil c-B rank celebrities, because A class are never going to agree to this....
I used to watch this show. Would you agree Commander Clash was the best supporting character on this show? I wish there was more of him in the series..
I think that even though Captain Planet is awesome, it's kind of funny that all you need to do is throw a bag of garbage on him and he's done. But it's also very funny that with Captain Pollution, all you need to do is throw some water on him and he's all finished.
That's not an evil rabbit; that's one of Dr. Jumba's failed genetic experiments before he got his formulas right and created Experiment 626!
