The Monk... Probably the only character from Rayman 1 with knees! XD

And if you think the bookstand thing is wierd, later in that intro the Magician is flying with Betilla.
:/ I don't think the Magician is supposed to fly.

If so, I can imagine Rayman like "MAGICIAN teach me how to fly like that!!! It'll make my job so much easier!!!!"

You know what, it would have been way better if they were flying high above the forest. Then I could make a joke about the Magician realising he can't fly and falling to his death the ground, screaming.

I really do find a pity that the video quality of the Rayman Junior cutscenes are terrible. Really.

If I recall the quality is slightly better in the PC version - not by that much, but a lot better then on the PS1. Unfortunately I have misplaced my copy of the game (though it can't have gone far as I remember my brother playing it a few years back in perfect condition) so I can't test this. If I do find it I might upload the intro in better quality

Maybe Betilla is helping the Magician fly?

[Warning: Content may be provocative.]
Anyway, I was reading about how many people seemed to feel disturbed because of the nymphs' appearance and the discussion was whether that sort of content should be in a children's game. I just wanted to point out one thing and let you sort the rest out yourselves.

What do you see here? Kind of obvious, isn't it? Look again. Still nothing else than what you originally saw? Ask a small kid and they will tell you there's a bunch of dolphins. Can you see them? There's about 9.

I believe the child's mind blocks out any content it is not supposed to process yet and as such, mature content may not be all that harmful to kids, especially if it's cartoony. Nevertheless, one shouldn't, of course, purposefully expose their children to anything that is meant for adults; that's just ridiculous. And I'm not trying to sound like some weird neglecting parent - then again I'm not a parent at all - but perhaps some things aren't as harmful as they may seem.

Oh, and as for a cool Rayman picture:

Ouch! I imagine Rayman sort of took Razor's gesture too literally and started taking lava baths.

I believe my Biology teacher showed us that when we were in Yr10, I saw the big image first before seeing the dolphins.

The slideshow accompanying it said:
- If you see 9 dolphins, you are innocent
- If you see a man and a woman, but can also see the dolphins, you are mature
- If you can only see a man and a women, your mind has truly been corrupted.

I guess the writer was out for a few laughs, but what he says is true. Kids will only see dolphins as they have not been introduced to the aspects of which older people can identify.

(Yes, I am being evasive)

I saw the big picture first too, but that was only a couple of weeks ago when I was for the first time introduced to it. Also Biology teacher... what are they doing to us children?! D:
Anyway, back to cool Rayman pics, anyone want to see Foutch's backplate armour?

Teeheeheeheehee people making out

Well you know what those Americans are like, always getting their knickers in a twist over the tiniest little things; PEGI clearly saw no problem with the nymphs and still rated it 7+; if it's anything like how Rabbids Go Home got recalled and rerated to 12+ because somebody in the game said "PISSED", then yeah, but really what they do in Origins is tame as hell.

Ooh, circular pixels.

That appears in the demo disc of beta R3. And yes, it is funny at a point.

That's quite good, but I think the Holy Sheet stamp, albeit a bit funny, is a bit too much.

That's why I said it was funny at a point. :)

Since it didn't make to the final version, now I find it fun.
