who's your favorite penguin

[Illiander]

title pretty much says it all

who'd'ya'like best?

[Andiamo]

Making me choose between Pingu and Tux? You are an evil, evil man.

That said, I chose Pingu. I love that little guy.

[Closet_Skeleton]

Wow. No Pen-Pen (Evangellion) option.

Probably Chiyo-chan is a Penguin suit but otherwise I'll go with Tux. I never liked choosed the other option.

[Illiander]

I've never seen Evangellion (only heard about it), and you only get 5 poll options.:smallfrown:

[Beleriphon]

I'm ashamed that you didn't inlcude Feather McGraw, although I suppose he's technically a chicken.

[Aerysil]

Chilly Willy!

[Lucky]

Chilly Willy!Seconded!!

[Meat Shield]

How can you not have Opus in there! BLASPHEMY!

Links for the youngin's that have no idea what I am talking about. I hate being a curmudgeonly old ba$+@rd but Opus wins hands down.

Quoted for great justice.

"It's the wrong trousers, Grommit, and they've gone wrong!"

[Lemur]

Yeah, I'm gonna have to vote for Feather McGraw as well.

[Closet_Skeleton]

Go Feathers McGraw!

I think this poll needs remaking based on Pengiuns people actually care about. Keep Pingu and Tux but Thog doesn't deserve a place.

What he said. Bloom County was freaking awesome.

[Dragonrider]

When my family watched the movie "Secondhand Lions", my dad, brother, and I all yelled at once, "Berke Breathed drew those comics!" and we watched the entire credits just to see if we were right. We were. It was cool.

[zeratul]

im gonna have to be all "different", and say my favorite is the penguin from looney tunes that the eskimo is hunting.

Arg. Why didn't I think of him? He was so cute...cry ice cubes and all. Oh well, I voed "other" so my vote counts for two. :smallamused:

[Elvaris]

Mario Lemieux, though Sidney Crosby of the active Penguins...

And yes, Opus should definitely be in the poll.

[Thexare Blademoon]

Prinny, dood!

If video game penguins don't count, then I got nothing.

Didn't make the poll? That ain't gonna fly.

Rico! Take out the write-ins. We don't need the extra competition.
Kawolski! Happy Feet is yours. Take him to school.
I'll hangle the rest of these second-rate lookalikes.
Private probably won't survive....

[tetsubo]

I am defenetly going to have to agree with the penguins from Madagascar.

and then bender in a tuxido in the episode of futurama when he loses his memory and thinks he is a penguin.

"Thats puffin talk" classic.

[Druid]

Who are Pingu and Tux?

[pestilenceawaits]

berges meredith

I was thinking Danny Devito

[ray53208]

danny was okay, but berges' penguin has class. besides endorsing the movie penguin only lends some credability to bad movies.

[pestilenceawaits]

True.

On the subject of Berges I still laugh when I think of Berges Merediths penguin squawk even though I haven't seen that show for many years.

[Closet_Skeleton]

Who are Pingu and Tux?

*Sniff* I don't feel like talking to you now...

Pingu is a stop-motion animated plastacene penguin from a kids show. Tux the mascot of the Linux operating system so named because Penguins look like they have a natural tuxedo.

[Wippit Guud]

Tux got hit by an Apple flying through a Window, and died a horrible death.

Another vote for these guys...Only reason that movie was any good.

[slipnslide]

one from happy feet...haha

Feathers would own those guys. Among other things he escaped from a zoo and planned a major jewel heist.

So, hijacking a transport ship, including breaking the security code on the navigation system, in addition to being combat trained... and 4 on 1?

I don't think so.

Yeah, but Feathers managed to stop Grommit. That alone precludes any othe response. Feathers is the Batman of penguins, he's a thinker. I suppose in many ways that he's more like the Doctor Doom of penguins.

[Deleran]

Dood, Prinny Dood. (http://www.nisamerica.com/images/email/prinnybig.jpg)

[BlueWizard]

I guess I'm the only one for Happy Feet, so far.

[Fus.Weapon 1337]

I'll have to go with Chilly Willy, too!

[RMS Oceanic]

1. Feathers McGraw
2. Pingu
3. The Madagascar Penguins
4. Not Mumble (Your Politically Correct Message robbed Cars! Thog Smash!)
Real 4. Wheezy from Toy Story 2
5. And Thog, of course.

[Soniku]

Chiyo-chan in a penguin suit for the win! PHEAR HER UNEARTHLY CUTENESS! :smallbiggrin:

[bosssmiley]

"Tekelili! Tekelili"

I ain't trusted those shifty freakish birds since I read how they overthrew the Elder Race and pinned the blame for it on those poor, inoffensive Shaggoths.

[Calamity]

Pingu, even though he speaks incoherent gibberish

[Jack_Banzai]

Opus, natch.

[Samurai General]

tux and someone?
who......?:smallconfused:
I vote Madagascar Penguins

[BrokenButterfly]

How could you not vote for Pingu!? His weird stretchy fog-horn mouth, the disturbing way in which he walked...his mind-altering babbling...

[Vix]

I voted other for the psychotic penguins from Madagascar. Pingu looks cute but I never did see the film so I don't really know him though I'd probably still vote for those Madagascar penguins

[DarkLightDragon]

It's a tie between Pingu and the Madagascar Penguins for me. They're my favoured penguins out of the ones I know.

[Atreyu the Masked LLama]

I would like to nominate the penguins from 3..2...1....Penguins! Its a Big Idea production much like Veggietales.

[Calamity]

I voted other for the psychotic penguins from Madagascar. Pingu looks cute but I never did see the film so I don't really know him though I'd probably still vote for those Madagascar penguins

Eh? Film? Pingu isn't a film it's a kid's TV series.

[Vix]

Eh? Film? Pingu isn't a film it's a kid's TV series.

Seriously? I thought it was a short film? I can't believe that's a tv show and I'm not watching it. must investigate this further.

[Sereno]

The Madagascar Penguins!! They were great in the movie and their Christmas special was awesome!


Mumble (from Happy Feet) is a close 2nd.

[Daze]

My name is chilly willy, I'm frozen through and through.. my head is hot and my feet are cold.. ha.. hee.. ACHOO!

Coolest penguin ever!

[Daze]

Although, the penguin from Fight Club gets an honorable mention...

[TheRabidWalnut]

And another write in vote for Feathers.

His voice just sends chills down my spine.

[Samurai General]

Who is Pingu!?!?!?!/1/:smallfurious:

[RMS Oceanic]

For your Pingu pleasure (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pingu).

Does that answer your question?

I find it interesting that Mumble has exactly one vote.

[Jerthanis]

The answer is Pokey http://www.yellow5.com/pokey/

[Zodling]

Am I the only one who likes (or remembers) Tennessee Tuxedo?

If he's too old/obscure for you young folks (I'm only 32, btw), I'll go with Pingu and Feathers McGraw, the stop-motion one-two punch.

[ozymand1as]

Heck yeah, go TUX THE SYMBOL OF LINUX AND OPEN SOURCE! WHOOOO!

[KuReshtin]

Show of hands for Skipper, Rico, Kowalski and Private the Penguins from Madagascar..

"Just smile and wave, boys. Just smile and wave."

[The Demented One]

Clearly the penguin from Fight Club. "Slide."

[ray53208]

i just have to be honest here... i cant keep this pent up any longer. i dont want to rain on anyones parade, but havent penguins been done to death? personally, i didnt find them that interesting and now they are everywhere. in all fairness, im probably not the "target audience."

is it bad when i root for the penguins to get squished?

Yes but I agree that they're overdone. Use a different animal for kid cartoons there still plenty more to choose from.

The ones in madagascar were great.

[LCR]

What about that penguin dude from Batman? Danny DeVito, I mean. He's cool (pun intended).

[turtleant120]

Pen-Pen. If he's not availible then my next choice is a dead one.

[Penguinsushi]

I feel strangely compelled to respond to this thread.

I'm going with the others who've written-in penpen. Having once been a linux geek, I'll say tux is a fairly close second.
