  • Go. We need at least one of the big ancient games, and since the rest of the monument is going to be Euro/American-centric, I'll give the nod over chess.
  • Cosmic Encounter. Arguably the most influential game you haven't played. Variable player powers and negotiation popularity.
  • Scrabble. The mass-market word game.
  • Pandemic. A major influence in the recent gaming sphere, especially in cooperative gaming.

  • When You Wish Upon A Star. The only true lock for the list. It's the freaking company's theme.
  • We're All In This Together. Wanted something live action, so looked and this seems to be the most popular HSM song. Something from that villain series could fit, too.
  • Let It Go. Yes, it's overplayed at this point, but it's still probably the most popular Disney song since the turn of the century.
  • Bibbidi Babbidi Boo. Had to choose between classic and Pixar, and went with age.
HMs: The Ducktales theme would have made the list if eligible - Lost Lamp doesn't predate the TV series. You've Got A Friend In Me.

  • Green Hill Zone. You know me, overvaluing historical significance.
  • Live And Learn. Wanted at least one vocal main track, and LAL won the coin flip.
  • Flying Battery Zone Act 1. Wanted a non-Sonic 1 regular stage theme.
  • A New Day (Sonic Rush). Wanted something, anything, from one of the handheld games. Being a special stage theme helps tick off another representation box.
HMs: While writing up this post, the following songs were listed at one point: This Machine, Panic Puppet Act 1, Final Fortress, His World, Doomsday Zone, Stardust Speedway Act 1.

  • The Trix Rabbit.
  • Tony the Tiger.
  • Lucky the Leprechaun.
  • Chex Warrior.
The first three are what I feel are the best representatives of the main mascot types - hunter of cereal, lifestyle promoter, protector of cereal. I was going to go the historical route with Quaker Man or Capt Crunch, but then decided that cereal mascots don't necessarily need to be on the box.

  • Adventure Time
  • Ed, Edd, n Eddy

  • Samurai Jack
I don't think an explanation is needed for Adventure Time, even if I don't personally like the show. I wanted to get an entry that wasn't action focused, so going with one of the early longrunners that people have given other good reasons for. Ben 10 was a major franchise for CN. Finally, Samurai Jack, as far as I could tell, is Cartoon Network's first Emmy winner.

HM: Mystery Incorporated.

  • The Room. See above.
  • Manos: The Hands Of Fate. I don't think it's the worst movie MST3K ever did, but it's probably the "general public" favorite.

everyone not voting for morrigan are cowards. What a way to go out
  1. That implies that Morrigan would want to have anything to do with me. She may be a succubus, but she does have standards.
  2. Even if we were to go with the less explicit date idea, I have nothing in common with her besides hedonism and a general disdain for humanity.

DomaDragoon
02/08/24 11:07:41 AM

Yeah, this is one where there's two big names, a third that fits if you still consider him a rogue, then personal preference determines the fourth.

  • Doctor Octopus. First to unmask Peter, stole his life, villain lead of three generations of the best Spider-man games (Neversoft PS1, Spider-man 2 PS2, Insomniac).
  • Norman Osborne (Green Goblin). The only thing I have to say is the face would be half Osborne, half Goblin.
  • Venom. The symbiote has branched out and I can see people thinking that we've got a Harley Quinn situation, but I still think of them first as Eddie Brock's villain phase.
  • Mysterio. Big influence on MCU Spidey, main antagonist in a lot of the video games, he'll do.
HMs: Jameson gets in if it's antagonists instead of rogues; Shocker.

  • Cinderella. Her castle's the logo, she has more relevant and recent appearances than most of the other "classic" princesses, and I like her more than SW.
  • Ariel. Formerly non-human rep, herald of the renaissance.
  • Elsa. I hate her, but on strict popularity she deserves it.
  • Sofia the First. I want a rep who originates from somewhere outside the Disney theatrical movies, so why not go with the princess whose entire reason for existing is "let's learn lessons from other Disney princesses"?
HMs: Belle (personal fave, but I think the first 3 are better examples), Mira Nova (if Sofia was about anything other than learning to be a princess, Mira would take her place), Adrien Agreste (didn't want to bother checking eligibility).

  • Pikachu. The mascot, the icon, spawner of a dozen clones and imitators.
  • Eevee. Progenitor of branched evolution, popular, cute.
  • Ditto. Sure, in the original gen it's just a gimmick. And in the later gens it's just a gimmick... but a very different gimmick. Easy mode for breeding for people who don't want to research.
  • Magikarp. Patron saint of evolution. Gets their own songs, games and minigames. It never misses appearances.
Honourable Mentions: The obligatory Charizard and Mewtwo mentions, Psyduck.

  • Dracula (1931). It was this or Nosferatu, and I know which way the wind is blowing.
  • Night of the Living Dead. Codifier of the zombie genre in mainstream.
  • Alien. Excellent merging of genres, it means I can deliberately snub slashers.
  • The Exorcist. What's been said above.
HMs: Friday the 13th (if I was going to put a slasher, it would be this one), Blair Witch Project (major influence on low budget / found footage genre, but it's just too new at 25+ years for this old coot).
