i never knew that those were called Muffin Tops, learn something new every day i guess.
Sonic the hedgehog: A lot of my friends can't stand the new sonic games. and while true they are made rather badly, they are still my child-hood. and it was good to see it again.
Sonic X: Why does everyone hate on this so much? I mean yes, it was 4kids. But really it wasn't that bad until the 4th season when they brought in Cosmo. In fact i gotta say, it was very true to the games and while it wasn't the best, it was still good. So i like it

I think the reason a lot of people don't like sonic X is:
a) they grew up with the older Sonic TV shows (satAM, Sonic Underground) and don't like the eastern portrayal of Sonic and his friends or the cast.
b) They're comic readers (like me), and similar to a), they aren't a fan of the cast of characters or the way they're portrayed.
c) Christ Thorndike XD;;
d) the setting of the show is...unusual for some people, and they'd like it to me more similar to the games.
e) 4kids, as you said. Which also ruined One Piece.
f) it's essentially an anime, accompanied by many anime stereotypes which turns a lot of people off.
Just my speculations XD;;

The irony. Also, COSMO NEVER STOLE TAILS FROM CREAM BECAUSE TAIL WAS FUCKING NEVER WITH HER!!!! RAGERAGERAGE!/shot Sorry, Sonic's fandom makes me go rage X.x

DottieXDipstick. Why do most despise this pairing after the idea of DipBecca came up? I don't get it They are adorable together and 102 Dalmatians shows they really love each other very much, and well, I don't see DipBecca working out of the DWoW-verse if shehadn't died anyways. DipstickXDottie forever and always XD

^ Yes, I TOTALLY agree with you ^^ and without Dotstick there would be no Oddball, Domino or Little Dipper.

Indeed, and we all know howepic those three pups are. Though I think Little Dipper didn't get enough spotlight in either the movies or videogames

Agreed. Anyway, back on topic... Luke's non UK voice for the Professor Layton games. I played through the American dubbed games rather than the UK dubbed games, so I like Luke's American voice actor better. He just sounds cuter, in my opinion.

American anime dubs I'll be the first to admit that I prefer these over some Japanese versions in certain animes. Cowboy Bebop, Hamtaro, Dragonball, and the Pokemon anime all come to mind. Especially Cowboy Bebop- I just can't get into their voices in the Japanese dub as much as I could with the English dub. My own personal preference but meh

Books without much conversation. Like Hatchet by Gary Paulsen for example, people say that they should make a movie out of it, and that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Why? There is little to no conversation or dialogue in the book. It is almost entirely description, with the occasional utterance from Brian with an offhand word or two. Movies are half visuals, half dialogue. Hatchet would be extremely hard to translate into a movie without dialogue to help hold up the visuals (I won't deny that I'm sure the movie could have some killer art direction if it was in the right hands, but still). BUT. I digress. I love books with lots and lots of description. It really helps paint a picture in my head. Hatchet is one of my favorite books of all time for that reason. I can almost feel everything that's going on. Same thing with Wolves of the Beyond by Kathyrn Lasky, though that book has quite a bit more dialogue than the former, it still has exquisite description and I could also feel what was happening and it REALLY painted a beautiful picture in my head. That's hard for some books to do for me, since my mind is so cluttered and buzzing with so much BS it feels good for me to just let a good story take over my mind. I guess some people just don't have the patience for it. :/ So sad for them, it must be hell inside the mind of people who hate reading. XD;;

Robots & Shark Tale. Robots most people just like to ignore, and that makes me sad because it's a really fun, chamring, and funny movie! I have nobody to talk about it with because people like to pretend that movie never existed :'c And Shark Tale... okay, I understand why people don't like this movie, I really do. It has a LOT of flaws and can be reaaaly annoying at some points. But it's my guilty pleasure X'D I still enjoy this movie even if it's very obnoxious.

Robots was awesome! Sure it's been years since I've watched it and I don't remember much of it, but I do remember seeing and liking it. xD
Shark Tale...I haven't seen it in years and I don't remember much of it (apparently we have it on VHS somewhere) but it was alright. Lotsa flaws and an obvious Finding Nemo ripoff, but it wasn't horrible.

Scangel...
I've stated my reason for this many times but.... why is it no one ships Angel with Scamp? I loved them together in the movie for all the years I watched it. A lot of the argument is that Scamp is a whiny teenager but he IS a freakin teenager!! For Pete's sake!! I could totally identify with Scamp's desire for freedom from rules. And he comes out of it a better person.
Angel might be streetwise and less naive but isn't that why she liked Scamp to start with? Because he WASN'T a bullheaded street dog like Buster? Because he was naive, or as she even put it herself "Decent and kind"?
As for me and my headcanon, they shall grow up together and have a family. =P
