![]() ![]() While the rest of the Fentons dwell away in giddy avarice, Danny turns into a hardcore jerk who doesn’t give a shit about his friends or his ghostly duties. ![]() If anyone has ever seen a cartoon that deals with middle/poor class getting an assload of money, you will see the plot coming a mile away. In reality, the Guys in White want to destroy the Ghost Zone via a missile through their ghost portal. ![]() They’re only about as reluctant until they see the many zeroes on their check and bolt on outta here. The Guys in White invade the Fenton basement and offers a hefty sum for their lab. I hate it with a burning passion of a million supernovas. Get use to it, he’ll abuse the hell out of his ice powers from here on out, often to the detriment of every other abilities he gained over the course of the series. The ice power is clearly meant to be A Big Deal (this is the only episode outside of “The Ultimate Enemy” to get any sort of massive promotion by Nickelodeon) and to have Danny spin circles with it in just a mere episode is kind of lame. The only exception seems to be his Ecto Ray and his flight, but they’re downplayed and fairly common that Danny doesn’t need to struggle with either. He can barely split himself in two and spent the majority of the series struggling until he successfully duplicated three more copies in “Torrent of Terror.” Even then, he could only keep it up for a short time. He gets the Ghostly Wail in “The Ultimate Enemy”, but is rendered fatigue until the series finale. This emphasizes both the inner and outer strength Danny slowly, but surely grows into. Frostbite is just as much of an exposition machine as beforee, teaching Danny how to use his powers, but never bothering to actually lend a hand against Undergrowth.ĭanny’s icy power is a cool (sorry, pun) foreshadowing that came out of his ghost sense, but his immediate expertise over a brief training montage left me feeling cold (sorry, more puns.) The thing about Danny’s increasing arsenal of powers is that it often takes more than one episode for him to master them. I have nothing prominent to add to Undergrowth he has a better explanation for getting pissy than Vortex, but it still amounts to yet another powerful Ghost God who wants to take over the world. It’s a nice touch and convinces me of the pairing even if latter episodes really get annoying with it. Actually, the whole romantic angle is surprisingly kept to a minimum, as if the show understands the need for subtlety despite their growing affection. “Urban Jungle” technically starts it, but I’m not bothered with it since it is crucial to the plot and characters (Sam is possessed by Undergrowth which is all levels of creepy and Danny must rescue both her and the town) certainly much more so than latter episodes. There will be spoilers!Īs much as I decry the ever increasing Danny/Sam romance during Season Three, it doesn’t really relent or blossom obnoxiously until sometime after this episode. My friend and I tackled “Urban Jungle” to the series finale one-hour extravaganza, “Phantom Planet.”Get cozy, I get really wordy and really ranty. 26 notes FebruDanny Phantom: Part 5 (Finale!): Episodes 46 - 53Īnd so we have reached the last leg of our journey. ![]()
