Slightly more on topic, if I could have any sort of power, that sort of bodily manipulation would be it.
Thing is, wether Jake's willing to use it to full extent changes by the episode. I mean, we have yet to see him go Shiva-like with a small armys worth of weapons, and he can form at least a few pairs of hands. Half his battle stratagy revolves around streching around a area and raming the opponent, rather than, say, becoming tiny and poping up to the size of a small house.
So, yeah, much like the Ice King, he has a pretty varied way to use his incredibly useful talent, but lacks the sort of "ommf" to use them properly.

I believe I said earlier that Finn and Jake are going to grow up to be the Toguro Brothers. You got the younger tough, front line fighter and the body manipulator.

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
I'm curious how far Jake could really stretch. He went for miles in that maze episode. How big could he get before he starts to get 'thin.'

Well in the maze, it made him sick so he probably couldn't have gone much further than that.

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
I'm not talking about length, I'm talking total mass. We didn't see how long the total distance he stretched.

It's not about what he has, it's how he uses it!

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
I would love to pull off some amazing comeback, unfortunately I'm not good at that sort of thing, and that timing was so impressive that I'm speechless can can only communicate through type. So what I'm saying is...nice *holds hand up for high five*

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
Does it bother you? I'm not really impressed or anything but I wasn't expecting that climactic of an ending.

I was referencing an online toon.

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
Darn it Finn, why did you have to break her out of that room! I think everyone could have been happy with a seven minute episode if it ended right there.:smallbiggrin:

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
Well, just going to say that I guess the cookie thinks PB'c crown is a magical mind-control thing, like the Ice Kings.
-
Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
If PB looked the same when the cookie was a kid as when he was an adult, how old does that make her?

Old. Or as a hypothetical guess and her information about science, as old as Marcy. Have we actualy met royalty who ages normaly?

I'm not sure if she's quite that old. Marceline seemed to have been around for the Mushroom war or at least not too long after it ended, but thats purely speculation. As for other royalty, not really but we don't have that much to go on. LSP is around 15, but other than that, nothing really comes to mind.
-
Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
Ehh, she's still pretty old. We dont know how long the Ice King has been kidnapping her, but it's probably started long before Finn showed up in his behated glory.
Also, amusingly, out of the five kings we have seen, two were undead, one was flat-out dead, and another is, well, Simon. The other is a being made out of fire, and one can only hope that he was not originaly a human. The apperance of his daughter, on the other hand, says otherwise.

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
Wait.. no. I think PB is 18 because when Lemongrab came, I'm pretty sure it specifically says she becomes 18 (again).

She was 18 at the start of the show, and Finn has gone thru two birthdays. Nope, she's physicaly eighteen. Thats where it stops.

If she could make herself 13 through surgery, maybe she can basically control her age and therefore extend her life. The only problem with this is that she seems to thnk she's going to die of natural causes when she's making Goliad.

To put it bluntly, Ooo is harsh enough that if Finn was not around, any or all of the things that have effected the Candy Kingdom could have ended it permently. Heck, dieing from PB's expriments could probably be considered "natural causes" in the Candy Kingdom, if it were not for the fact they can now raise the dead.

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
Well that was another amazing and deep episode of Adventure Time.
-
Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
You know? I hope adventure time ends season 4.
Not because its bad. Far from it. This season has some of the best episodes.
But because I don't want it to drag on long enough for it to suck so I can remember it positively. And the creators can go work on something new.

I can understand the notion of always leaving people wanting more, but I do want them to keep going because it's so good. At least give us one bad season, then okay maybe. Not every series with great early episodes that goes on forever turns into the Simpsons in terms of quality.

Re: What time is it? (Adventure Time Season 3)
Then give me some that don't.
Also, Bubblegum is going more and more loco. Must be all the kidnappings and zombies and dying twice.
