Arguments against:

  • Facts in the form "first one except that other one" are not notable.
    • Yeah, but Reynold practically is a Cheat Commando.
      • It still sounds just as awkward.

First first name

This is the first time that we have heard another name of a Cheat Commando. (Blue Laser says "Play us a song, won't you, Charles?" to Gunhaver.)

Arguments against:

X-haver

The arch-nemesis-as-friend relationship indicated by Blue Laser Commander's address of Gunhaver as "Charles" alludes to the relationship between Magneto and Charles Xavier of the X-Men series.

From: Let Us Give TANKS!
Posted on: 04:24, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Arguments for:

  • Blue Laser Commander's use of Gunhaver's first name suggests that there was once a friendly relationship between the two of them.
  • Because the X-Men movies are so well-known (and the third one came out recently), it is likely that TBC were aware of the resemblance between BLC & Gunhaver and Magneto & Xavier when they chose Gunhaver's first name to be Charles.

Arguments against:

  • The only similarity is the usage of the name "Charles" by an arch-foe. Without more evidence, this is not conclusive.
  • We also don't actually know that Gunhaver's first name is Charles, or, for that matter, that his last name is Gunhaver. Gunhaver may be a nickname, or "Charles" may be his last name, or it could just be an inside joke going over all our heads, or something like that.
  • What if TBC were just being random and the first thing that came to their heads was "Charles"? Jumbo/LARGE was like this too and I quote: Not everything is something.

Additional comments:

  • Maybe some DVD commentary someday will prove this true, but until then, there's not enough to go on.
  • This is a tough call. If we keep it, it's speculation, but the question is whether it's reasonable speculation based on strong similarities. For now, I think the connection is strong enough that it's worth keeping, even if there's a chance it's not true.
  • If it's not too much, can the reason (He called him Charles) be included in the proposed fact without a revision?
