30 Day Disney/Pixar animation challenge returns Day 4: Scrooge McDuck and Ducktales

Welcome to the 30 day challenge of April, which is going to be all about Disney properties. There is a lot of acquisitions under the Disney Company umbrella at this point, but the focus here is going to be on the animated properties produced under the Disney/Pixar labels proper.

Donald may be the most famous, but theres’ one other Duck who’s tougher than the toughies and smarter than the smarties, the King of Klondike himself, Uncle Scrooge, last of the clan McDuck. With untold adventures under his belt in the realm of print media, Scrooge is nevertheless known most for the massively popular Ducktales cartoon, and its insanely catchy theme song

For today, tell us what you think of Scrooge McDuck as a character (how miserly, adventurous, secretly warmhearted do you like him?), as well as the Ducktales series, its movie, and any other appearances of his you’ve appreciated.

Bonus prompt: Thoughts on the 2017 reboot vs the original Ducktales – who did what better and why?

Bonus prompt rerelease: Favorite/least favorite members of the supporting cast?

TOMORROW: the Toy Story movies
