Do you guys remember Pippi Longstocking?

Never mess with someone who can lift a horse.

 

Apropos of nothing: never felt the appeal of Pippi Longstocking, the books or any of the TV shows or movies. And the girl from the first TV adaptation creeped me the hell out as a kid.

 

Please tell me you are joking, there was an american version of Pippi? I had no idea.

 

There was but it didn't have the memorable impact of The Neverending Story. Notable names included Eileen Brennan, Dennis Dugan (who directed many of Adam Sandler's recent films) and Dick Van Patten.

Anyone ever see the 1997 animated series?

 

This is a shock to you?

 

Well I guess it shouldn't be, it's just that it's so old that I thought I would have known about it.

 

It barely made an impact at the box office. It came and went.

 

I read the books and watched a bit of the movie when I was younger.

 

Holy whatsit?? Who did she play on the Chrimbus Special I wonder...

Edit: UGH! She played the Pasta Bear wife hahah. So disgusting.

 

I always thought she was the Wendy's girl and she just got amnesia and started believing herself to be this Pippi Longstocking, Pirate/Nazi Hunter.

 

I'll admit , I used to watch it. She grew to be very attractive. Also I believe her side of the story.

 

If she wasn't attractive would you still believe her?

 

Of course not. The unattractives are not to be trusted. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!

 

Exactly. I was just making sure. I will not put up with trusting unattractive people.

 

Not as much According to Erin (Pippi) the man was secretly filming her. ..http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbi...--secretly-filming-her.html?ito=feeds-newsxml

 

I'm still pissed that the Lindgren estate refused to give Studio Ghibli the rights to make a movie. It would have been what became Kikis Deliviery Service
