    Top 50 Duos: Counting the Seconds

    In a world of increased isolation, we all need a friend. And sometimes we have that one relationship with someone who just… works with you. It can be romantic, platonic or maybe something that isn’t so easily labelled. Some people just go together. Some things just go together. Becoming greater...

    Top 50 Duos Nomination Thread - Voting Twice

    One is the loneliest number... but with two, you'll never be alone. Hey ya'll! It's me, Johnny Unusual and today we are going to celebrate things that come in twos, whether they be attractive opposites or in sync (not to be confused with N SYNC, who are, in fact, not a duo). Now we've done...

    The Rest of the Best - A Popularity Contest 50th Anniversary! Week Sixteen - Video Games of the 21st Century!

    Wow, 50 years. I feel like I was only a young whippersnapper in those days, back when whippersnapping paid a mere 21 cents an hour and was called "lash-a-crackin'". And to celebrate us getting to our 50th Popularity Contest, I want to take a look back this next year. Oh, no, relax, on top of any...

    The Adventure Movie Countdown - Intermission: Impossible

    OK, guys, I finished the 50—sorry, 51 films you recommended I watch before I begin my adventure to find a lost movie theatre. Adventure is probably the oldest genre of anything; when the world was bigger, we always wondered what was over the horizon and while our world is smaller and more...

    The Top 50 Actors Countdown - You Casted Your Votes

    OK, everyone, our project has begun. You may not have realized this but due to shocking anonymous donations a few years ago during one of our fundraisers, we finally have the funding for Talking Time’s true endgame: producing major motion pictures. And if we want to spend money to make money...

    Top 50 Actors Nomination Thread - Rendezvous with Drama

    A project has begun. I cannot tell you what it is now but to complete it, we will need the greatest actors who have ever lived. What I will say is this will lead to the ultimate form of art across various mediums. Oh, yes, multimedia projects have existed before but I intend to make a piece of...

    Popularity Contest 40: The Dream Warriors

    More than half way through older ladies and man, Kirin is making this one move. Great list. If you don't know what this is, we like to put together crowd sourced lists of our favourite things and see what comes out on top. We've done Dinosaurs, Cartoon series and Sci-Fi/Fantasy Movies to...

    Nominate Your Fave Older Ladies

    Okay folks, buckle up - this was a brand new idea that won the most recent Top 50 topics poll and it's got a lot of fuzzy edges so I expect some discussion to ensue. But here's the TLDR: We're nominating our favorite fictional women characters over (about) 60. Just to get them out of the way...

    The Top 50 Cartoon Characters - They Aren't Your Favourite, They're Just Drawn That Way

    “Why, hello, my name is Lionel Hutz. I’m an attorney in the burgeoning city of Toontown and, well, after a recent *squints* play-jar-is-em case got overturned, well, it ended up opening up a wonderful floodgate that allows me to be gainfully employed. I won’t bore you with the details because I...

    The Top 50 Cartoon Characters Nomination Thread - A Terrible Strain on Talking Time's Wrists

    Probably something like trans rights or sphere grids but in the meantime, we like to entertain ourselves with cartoons as we weight to be flung through time off of our mortal coils. And who makes up these time killers? Characters! Unless the cartoon is rather abstract or is about a tree growing...

    Talking time has listed its Top 50 NES Games, its Top 50 16-Bit Games, and its Top 50 Games of the first 17 years of the 21st Century.

    Top 50 Sidekicks - The League of Extraordinary Second Bananas

    Heroes and villains are great, but they wouldn't get anywhere without the people watching their back, helping them, teaching them, or just giving them someone to show off to. Here are our picks for the 50 best sidekicks in the history of fiction. Ties will be presented in order of earliest...

    Sidekick Nominations - Behind every great person is another person

    On the previous iteration of these forums, I ran a popularity contest for fiction's best villains. This contest is sort of a spiritual follow-up, covering another essential character type, the sidekick. Let's define sidekick real quick. A sidekick is a slang expression for a close companion or...
