The reason Donald doesn't want him in the same house as his sister is that there would end up being more nieces and nephews...

Episode Discussion Why didn’t the papyrus of binding give Scrooge a chance to run away?

in the finale we learn that Bradford’s contract was created to force Scrooge to stop “adventuring” forever.

When he signs it he’s tied in these gold chains that I at first assumed were first physical but then would melt away to only show up if he attempted to adventure.

But he just stays in them until the kids find a way to break him out? Does the contract consider standing still an adventure? Or running away when someone tries to kill you? if Donald or Webby didn’t defend him from Bradford, Scrooge would’ve died.

Maybe it was the fact that he was already in what could be considered an “adventure”

We all know Bradford’s definition of adventure is flawed; thats how they find the loophole afterall. But why does it stop Scrooge from moving at all after signing it?

Maybe since adventure literally runs through his blood the mere idea of him doing anything counts as adventure

Discussion Scrooge had a worst moral compass before he got donald and della

10 Upvotes

Before them, he's clearly way too focused on the business aspect and passt scrooge was also shown to be much more careless and reckless , this make me think his moral compass wasn't as good and allowed him to think it was ok to exploit the villagers turned by magica and poe in goats when the present day scrooge acknowledge he messed up . Having donald and della did made him change for the better but his initial progress got crushed by bradford.

The female characters on Ducktales 87 are so sexist and backwards yet every other Disney show had much stronger female characters. What happened?

• Upvotes

TaleSpin had Rebecca and Molly Cunningham. Gummi Bears had Grammi and Sunni Gummi. Chip and Dale had Gadget. Even Goof Troop had Peg and Pistol.

The problem with Ducktales is that it doesn't really feature the strongest female character in the Duck Universe which is Daisy Duck. Instead we get Webby who makes Shirley Temple seem like a feminist avenger by comparison, she's way too babysish for her age, is always crying or whining. But to be fair her character was not done well by the writers who never allowed Webby to grow since she was completely sidelined. Mrs Bleakley was slightly better since she was a wise woman but limited screen time was a disservice. Ducktales was very much a boys only affair.

Do you think that Mc Duck family has any chance against Pennywise? I think it would go after kids in the family rather than adults but it would prabobly prey on kids in the town in general what do you guys think?

Discussion Crazy how Bradford was pretty much torturing Scrooge to rid the world of chaos

Thumbnail

177 Upvotes

He spent thirty years lying to and manipulating Scrooge, getting him to see him as an ally and confidante, even wiping his memory to keep it that way.

Then when he noticed he was adventuring with his family, he set up a scheme to get Della to take that launch early. That caused the entire Della mystery, tearing the family apart, putting an entire decade of heavy guilt and self loathing on Scrooges consciousness, and then got his butler and close friend killed to further torment and isolate him just to make sure he doesn’t do the one thing he loves the most.

Bradford was totally fine letting Della stay stranded in space, even shutting down rescue efforts to reach her just to keep Scrooge on his tight little leash.

But when his grandnephews came, he started to feel a sense of joy again for what seems the first time in forever. Instead of living in a dark, desolate mansion alone and miserable, he was happy, getting out there and teaching his nephews and niece the grand ways of adventuring. But with adventuring brought chaos. Mr. McDuck was out there actually living for once, and Bradford couldn’t have it.

So he brings up a contract three decades in the making that forces Scrooge to choose between the two things he loves most: adventure, and his family. His family is an adventurous family however, and Bradford was fully aware they’d keep going even without him, if more reluctant. He was going to force Scrooge to live in misery, having no choice but to sit on the sidelines and watch his family do the one thing that bonds them together: adventure.

I mean, just watching the pilot. Seeing him go from bored and miserable in his office to bright and excited by the end. “Curse me kilts, have I missed trouble”

For the Ducks, adventuring and family go hand in hand. You take one away, and the other ceases to exist. Even with Beakley, his best friend, Scrooge was still miserable because he wasn’t doing the thing that formed their bond in the first place: adventuring.

All this to say: How can Bradford concoct a plan that makes a man go through unimaginable mental torture for a decade, then try and force that same man whose entire sense of self revolves around adventuring resign himself to a dull life of nonadventure by threatening hundreds of peoples lives and still NOT think he’s the villain?

But it wouldn’t have those hammers that would smash Scrooge, and wouldn’t be a tutorial at all, since there are many differences in both games.

Discussion I don't think the 17 HDL would've had a ew girl attitude toward 87 webby if they met her

16 Upvotes

I could see them integrating her day one like they did with their webby and being fine with who she is (they did reassured 17 webby over her not being normal in daytrip of doom), I think they'd also defend both webby if the 87 HDL had a ew girl attitude toward any of them, I don't reccall any moments where the boys had a "ew girl" attitude with the 17 webby , even if they could still have conflicts.

Discussion Dewey Kept A Secret About Della

11 Upvotes

The storyline where Huey and Louie found out about Dewey's secret about their mother always bothered me.

Like, Dewey and Webby kept this a secret from the others because they thought that Della stole from and betrayed the family. They thought sharing it would hurt them (Even more than it already was since we know at this point that Donald and Scrooge haven't spoken in 10 years). This is especially apparent in Dewey as in the episode with Zeus and Storkules, he hesitated to continue the investigation because he was afraid his mother was a bad person.

it really bothered me that Dewey was accused of being middle child syndrome selfish by his brothers when that WASN'T THE CASE, ESPECIALLY Louie, who told Webby in episode 1 to lie to Mrs. Beakly about where she was so she wouldn't get worried, saying this quote: "Lying, it's the responsible thing to do." So him saying that Dewey keeping secrets, while sad, was MASSIVELY hypocritical of him! And I hate how this was never called out!

I would've loved to see both Huey and Louie's reactions to the actual reason as to why Dewey didn't tell them because of this, but the episode doesn't do this and paints Dewey as a selfish jerk! WHY!!!!!?????

So

The introduction of Bubba the Cave Duck in Ducktales 87 led to the writers significantly sidelining Webby in his favor

7 Upvotes

I've been revisiting the episodes of the OG season and Webby actually had a fair amount of screen time in the first season. When Bubba the Cave Duck was introduced, Webby's screen time significantly decreased, so much so that on Season 2 she was only in 3 episodes and of those 3, only 1 episode had her speaking.

The funny thing is even the writers seemed aware of this because on Season 3, they had a episode of Webby feeling left out and becoming a giant. It's weird that the show was so intent on making Bubba a thing that they had one of the two female regulars on the show almost completely written out.

The irony is that for the movie, DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp (1990), Webby got a starring role, even included in the movie's poster when Ducktales always highlighted just the boys and Scrooge. Bubba was not featured. A small compensation, I guess.

trying to make my own junior woodchuck guidebook

21 Upvotes

hey guys i was wondering if you guys had any idea on what i should add on my own junior woodchuck guidebook. So far I've made a page about how to save people from cardiac arrest, a stroke and choking, a page about snakes and how to survive after being bitten, how to recognize animal paw prints in the wild, how to know what time is it using the sun and a page on the morse code. What else should I add? Do you guys have any ideas on fun pages other than survival pages?

Webby was given so little to do in the 1987 series?

39 Upvotes

I was surprised she was only in 50 episodes of the 100 episodes. I assumed she was in less. Sometimes she was allowed to join in the missions but most of the time she pretty much stayed home crying or being dismissed cuz she was a girl. And when Bubba was introduced, she was given even less to do.

Why was Webby sidelined and the show so male-focused? The reboot rectified that. I was even surprised the movie gave Webby a proper role and gave her the same spotlight as the boys.

Comics What Do You Think Would make a Good Ducktales Comic Story?

Post image
22 Upvotes

That is my Question

Like Ducktales is great in the comic medium it based on Original Donald Duck & Scrooge Duck comics but a completely different universe in a way its Archie Ninja Turtles Adventure in reverse

So to the point I wanna something new ish done that still clear enough a child can understand akin to what Ian Flynn does with Sonic or Erik Burnham did with Saturday Morning Ninja Turtles with 87 Turtles

Maybe something like a few origin stories or completely new villain or a place Scrooge never been to

But thats me what is your Idea?
