Hotel Transylvania: How it should have ended


I do not own the artists or the characters. No copyright intended. 



Spoilers ahead!






In my personal opinion, this movie was not as good as the first two, for several reasons. First of all, Dracula and Ericka may have fallen in love, but that does not mean that they should have gotten married right away at the end of the movie. Realistically, their relationship would have taken much longer, especially considering the fact that Ericka tried to kill him earlier due to her grandfather's influence.

(You can't marry someone you just met!)

Bonus: If Dracula's wife were alive, she would have murdered Ericka on the spot due to her distrust in humans. In addition, Mavis is going to have to get used to Ericka around the hotel. Which brings up several questions:

What will Dracula's and Ericka's children be like?

Will Mavis and Ericka still have trust issues due to her background as the decendant of a monster hunter?

Will more humans discover the hotel, and thus make monsters move to a safer location?

Will Ericka's grandfather still hold a grudge against all monsters/monsters hold a grudge against him?

Where are Ericka's parents and family members?




Second, who's idea was it to turn Atlantis into a Las Vegas casino? If your going to make a kids movie, please don't encourage them to partake in risky behaviors for adults.

Third, when Dennis and his wolf pup friend sneak Tinkles, a large puppy, possible born from Cerberus, no one notices his clearly visible face until the hat and jacket come off. Why?

Fourth, the instrument of destruction is...dubstep music? Really? The end battle just turned out to be a music battle between the professor and Johnny, over how the Kraken would be controlled. So "good" music like "The Macarena" is able to overpower the professor's "evil" music? Come on! That makes no sense. Sure, the Macarena was fun to dance to, but the instrument of destruction should have been more powerful or at least had a back up song. Heck, it should have been something else, like a dark trident or a ray gun, or better yet, dozens of cell phones (Watchers of Hotel Transylvania The Series will know the reference).


So would there have been any other song that could have beat the Macarena? Certainly. A song both with positive and negative tones to it, even more powerful than both of the songs.

"Thriller?" it would certainly have everyone dancing and getting along much faster.

"Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites?" Too confusing for the monsters. They would dance wildly and everyone would question who was good and who was not.

But there is only one song that could have unleashed the beast in the Kraken, destroying the monsters for good, even blowing the professor out of the water. Even the Atlanteans wouldn't stand a chance.

Which song is that, you ask?



The Enigma TNG's "Monster Killer" of course!

Seriously, movie, you don't have to be overboard kid friendly and ridiculous to try and make things work. If you want to make another great sequel to celebrate the summer, do it right next time.

MajinBlue fanfiction: Rise from Hell (incomplete draft)

art by MajinBlue
https://thefuturemade.bandcamp.com/


OCs owned by their respective owners.
DragonBall originally owned by Akira Toriyama. No copyright intended.


MajinBlue, one of the many Saiyan OCs that inhabit the DragonRealm Meloverse timeline. Alas, he is no ordinary warrior. Legend says that he is part demon, part angel with the appearance of Super Saiyan Blue Goku. It is rumored that he was born from the demon Towa (the OC alternate version where she has red skin) and created with the cells of the strongest fighter, (presumably Goku but could be another OC.)
He was born in the Demon Realm, where his powers and strength were constantly tested. Seeing her offspring more as a tool than her son, Towa sent MajinBlue up to Earth to wreak havoc and defeat her enemies in the hopes that the demons could find a more suitable place to conquer.
Turns out that MajinBlue’s strength doesn’t only lie on the outside. Having been corrupted by the majin power since birth, MajinBlue longs to escape and fight on his own terms (the Saiyan within him). Sure, conquering the world would be lots of fun, but to go back to being treated like dirt by the demons? Not a chance!
Once he finally reaches Earth, he encounters a large eccentric group of warriors, Retro, Orack, and Brocollia. After sparring with the newcomers who want to protect Earth rather than destroy it, MajinBlue flees the scene and hides to figure out a plan.
Along the way, he sees a mushroom-shaped spaceship in the distance. Unlike other Saiyans, he did not have a scouter. His keen senses picked up a lone red-haired Tuffle, weakened and alone! Seizing his chance, he charges at him, only to be stopped by one of Halusa’s droids. After an intense fight, the match ends in a draw.
“All Saiyans must be defeated,” Halusa said.
“I’m not a Saiyan per se. I am a demon and an angel sent to conquer this planet and restore the demon world. I was mostly sent to defeat whom Towa describes as ‘Saiyan enemies.’”
“So you’re out here all alone, with no one to support you?”
“Well my mother Towa and the rest of the demons but they see me as a weapon, not a friend.”
“What’s your name?”
“MajinBlue.”
“I am Enoki Halusa, the last one of my kind. My race was wiped out by the Saiyans many years ago. I was fortunate enough to escape. I have traveled across space to eliminate remaining Saiyans, but they keep coming back.”
“My…real Saiyan parents died in Xena year 2. I was barely alive when the demons found me. They used their magic to corrupt me and turn me into a heartless fighting machine bent on defeating the Saiyans. Strange how ironic things can be.”
“Indeed,” said Halusa. “I am part Saiyan myself, I just hate to admit it.”
“I just encountered several Saiyans on my way here. There were too many of them, so I left.”
“Well it seems we have the same goal in mind,” said Halusa. “To defeat the Saiyans. What if you could be useful not just as a weapon, but an ally?”
“What do you mean?” he asked.
“If you join me to help defeat the Saiyans you saw earlier, I can use my technology to help your kind arrive to Earth.”
“Well this is easy,” MajinBlue grinned.
“But, you must allow me to spread my technology and culture to the humans. You can take over the rest of the world, provided you leave the new Tuffle society untouched.”
‘No promises,’ MajinBlue thought as he shook Halusa’s hand.
“Can I be your student?” MajinBlue asked.
“Of course,” said Halusa. “In fact, my Tuffle friend Fragaria and I can adopt you since you have nowhere else to go.”
‘Oh dear, Towa’s not gonna like this,’ MajinBlue thought. Then again, he was still on his mission, so perhaps this could all work.

Later on, he would become reformed to fight with Orack, Retro, HalusaTwin, etc. against various enemies, including Saiyan Enigma, the Shadow Dragons and Glacin. He would marry a human named Monika and have a statue in his honor just outside the demon realm entrance.


More coming soon…

Miraculous LadyBug fan theories





Miraculous Ladybug fan theories



Spoilers ahead!





So we already know that Adrien’s father is the evil villain Hawkmoth. Both of them sound similar and his evil underground lair is in the Agreste mansion, so it does make sense. We also know that, eventually, Marinette and Adrien will know who they are as their superhero forms of LadyBug and Chat Noir. How they will react, we don’t know.
What are some possible things that could happen? Let’s review.


1  Miraculous holders

For those who don’t know, kwamis are magical jewels that hold immortal colorful creatures that bestow super powers to the people they choose. We know that Tikki had served Miraculous Ladybug over thousands of years and that Marinette is one of many incarnations. The same could be said for Plagg serving the various incarnations of Chat Noir.

We also know that Trixx, the fox kwami currently chose Alya as the new bearer of the fox miraculous. (“Trixx, let’s pounce!”)

It is also likely that Chole will be in possession of the Queen Bee miraculous, Pollen. (“Pollen, buzz on/buzz off!”)

It could be possible that Nino will gain possession of the turtle miraculous after Master Fu passes away. Before that, he would transfer all his knowledge to Marinette and Adrien, trusting them to keep it secret.
Based on the fact that the peacock miraculous was beside a picture of Adrien’s mother, she could gain possession of the miraculous later on (after the heroes defeat the peacock villain.)


If/when Hawkmoth is defeated for good, then his miraculous Noorou will likely be free and search for a worthy holder of the butterfly miraculous.

There are also other types of miraculouses that are listed:

A rat (Sneek?)

A rabbit

A dragon

A tiger

An ox

A dragon

A snake (Hypnoss)

A horse

A goat

A monkey (Banna)

A rooster

A dog (Fiddo?)

A pig


These animals are the 12 Chinese zodiac signs! This results in a total of 19 miraculouses.


Heroes?

LadyBug

Chat Noir

Alya in superhero form

Nino

Chole

Adrien's mother in superhero form


Miraculous attained by Marinette's classmates below?

Dog Miraculous

Rabbit Miraculous

Dragon Miraculous

Goat Miraculous

Rooster Miraculous

Pig Miraculous

Horse Miraculous

Sheep Miraculous

etc.


Villains?


Hawkmoth

Peacock villainess

Male villain wearing black and white (seen on Miraculous Ladybug wiki)

Chole (Possessed)

Volpina impoaster (makes a return)

Adrien's mother (possessed)

Chat Noir (Possessed)

Snake Miraculous

Rat Miraculous

Ox Miraculous

Tiger Miraculous





 Secrets

2
   What of the secret lower layer underneath Hawkmoth’s underground room?

It could be used by Hawkmoth as a secret backup location in case he is discovered or needs to escape.

It could be used by Adrien’s mother who forms a rebel group of miraculous holders against Hawkmoth.

Or, none of the Agreste family know of its location.


3  Battles

We know that the Ladybug Miraculous powers activate the lucky charm, allowing LadyBug to figure out how to defeat the villain, defeat the akuma and restore things to normal.

Chat Noir’s miraculous allows Chat Noir to destroy an object he touches.

Alya’s powers consist of a magical flute that creates illusions.

Could Chole’s power include creating minions to do her bidding?

Could Nino’s power be super strength and a hard shell to block attacks?

We also know that there are special potions that allow Miraculous holders to gain extra powers like breathing underwater and controlling ice.

Other elements could be healing, electricity, fire, earth, air, invisibility, etc.


The series could lead to a final battle, where LadyBug and Chat Noir fight Hawkmoth and a brainwashed Adrien’s mother (or she could switch sides and help the heroes).

Half of the miraculous holders could join the heroes and half could be corrupted by Hawkmoth (ex. Chole, or Chat Noir toward the end due to Chole’s evil tendencies and Chat Noir having bad luck with being possessed by villains).


4   The reveal

When the heroes find out about the other, they would still accept each other for who they are (though it may take a while).

Marinette finds out that Chat Noir is Adrien and develops a more platonic feeling as her previous romantic craze starts to fade a bit.

Adrien find out that Ladybug is Marinette, is briefly shocked, but admires her even more. Knowing her true regular self, he gradually starts to develop romantic feelings for her.


Both of them find out at the same time…and the episode abruptly ends!

Deadgrin Customs fanfiction (incomplete)



https://twitter.com/deadgrin?lang=en




Meet Chazam, the god of customs and destruction. He isn’t your average god, even in the realm of DragonBall. However, he is quite similar to the clown god of universe 11, Belmond. In fact, there appearances are quite similar. They both have curly hair, clown noses, and well-built bodies. They wear typical attire and jewelry that the gods and angels wear.

Yet that was where the similarities end. While Belmond enjoys eating grapes that his harem of assistants bring him, Chazam much prefers pizza. Chazam frequently doesn’t identify with any one universe, he often keeps to himself. However, he often interacts with the inhabitants of Universe -7 and -11. Whenever he would start to hit on the universe -7 angel Alchola, Coors, the god of destruction for -7 would arrive and give Chazam a deadly glare. Even as a fellow god himself, Chazam knew that he was not to be messed with.

Chazam has a kai ally that often works beside him. Though Chazam is responsible for destroying any planets that Coors may have missed, Chazam has a passion much stronger than his work assignments. In his spare time, Chazam can conjure up any figure and custom he so desires. The figures would look identical to warriors in real life. Unlike many individuals, he is not discriminatory against any particular race. In fact, he makes customs of Saiyans, Namekians, Freiza's race, even Tuffles and humans. On occasion, his kai assistant and his angel friends would use their powers to bring these customs to life by Chazam's request. They have magical abilities just like the regular warriors, though not as powerful. They are usually under Chazam's control, sent on missions to spy on enemy aliens and report any mishap occurring in space. The customs did not have to eat, drink, or sleep, but they could still be easily destroyed by energy blasts.

Being a god, he rarely gets involved in the affairs of the OC fighters. Eating and drinking in his palace is much more pleasant to him than watching mortals beat themselves up over petty matters.
