Professor Finbarr Calamitous

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Professor Finbarr Calamitous is one of the villains that Jimmy Neutron encounters in the television cartoon series The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius voiced by Tim Curry. Every time he gets thwarted, he says something to the lines of 'I'll get you Jimmy Neutron!'. He never finishes all the phases of his evil plans, and can barely even finish sentences (although he took self-help classes)

[edit] Professor Calamitous, I Presume

A robot attacks Jimmy Neutron. At school, Jimmy's teacher, Ms. Fowl, tells that the bitemark of a donut left at the scene belongs to her former student, Finbarr Calamitous. Ms. Fowl tells that Calamitous never finished anything, so she failed him. At Jimmy's house, the same robot that was planning to get revenge on Jimmy kidnaps Goddard. Jimmy rescues Goddard, and the android is about to tell what his name is, but he forgets it. Jimmy saw an unfinished tank, an unfinished rocket, and an unfinished jigsaw puzzle board, and guesses that it's Finbarr Calamitous. Calamitous asks Jimmy to finish all of his inventions. When Calamitous gets out of his robotic suit, it is revealed that Calamitous is a very short professor. In the end, Professor Calamitous tells Jimmy that he will get him next time.

[edit] Operation: Rescue Jet Fusion

After taking a self-help course on how to finish things, Calamitous plans to flood the Earth by melting the ice on Mt. Everest. So, he sends Beautiful Gorgeous, his daughter, to stop Jimmy and friends. Of course, he fails, and Jimmy and Jet acitvated the self destruct sequence; the Professor and his daughter survived, but are sent to jail.

[edit] The Great Egg Heist

Calamitous disguises himself as princess Peggy Tsu to trick Jimmy Neutron and his friends to rob a museum to get a jade egg. After Jimmy get the mechanical jade egg, it is revealed that the woman in disguise is Professor Calamitous. In the end, Calamitous' doomsday device powered by the mechanical egg, explodes, because Carl accidentally gives him a fake egg.

[edit] Lights, Camera, Danger

Calmitous disguises himself as film director Quentin Smithee (a parody of Quentin Tarantino and common Hollywood pseudonym Alan Smithee) to put Jimmy Neutron and the gang in danger. Calamitous is using devices to finish Jimmy and the gang off, like flying hats, cut roller coaster track, and the giant mechanical snake, but failed. Calamitous almost finishes the gang with a mechanical snake, but failed when a donut overloads the machine. Calamitous was arrested away by the police.

[edit] The League of Villains

Finbarr Calamitous and Beautiful Gorgeous are recruited by King Goobot among other villains to get revenge on Jimmy Neutron.

[edit] The Jimmy Timmy Power Hour 2: When Nerds Collide

First, Calamitous has teamed up with Dr. Moist, the villain from episode "The Evil Beneath". After Moist forgot to watch the Neutron detector, Calamitous throws him away, and Jimmy defeats him again. While searching for a new partner in crime, Calamitous takes notice of Timmy Turner in a heated rivalry with Jimmy, and even greater notice of the small "computer programs" (Cosmo and Wanda) that accompany him. In an attempt to capture them, Calamitous follows Timmy into his own universe of Dimmsdale. With bad luck following him like a magnet, he attracts the attention of Anti-Cosmo. Not knowing any better, Calamitous agrees to help Anti-Cosmo's plan of breaking his fellow Anti-Fairies out of Fairy World Prison, then gets himself locked up in a cell with Jorgen von Strangle. The two of them escape and arrive just as Jimmy and Timmy finish capturing all the Anti-Fairies, but a fight between the two of them breaks out as they try to take the captured Anti-Fairies for their own means. Timmy, not knowing any better zaps both Calamitous and Jorgen with a Gene Splicer ray "borrowed" from A.J., turning them into a hideous monster (actually, just putting Calamitous' head onto Jorgen's body). With his criminal mind in control of Jorgen's body and powers, Calamitous returns to Retroville and uses his newfound power to do the following: terrorizing Retroville with prehistoric creatures and imprisoning Jimmy's loved ones in carbonite. Calamitous has created a "Big Bang Bomb" to rewrite history. When Jimmy, Timmy and their respective friends confront him, they learn that Calamitous' control over Jorgen weakens when Jorgen gets angry. Using that to their advantage, Jimmy and Timmy manage to distract Calamitous long enough to de-splice them. Jorgen ultimately gets the last laugh by removing the bomb and shrinking Calamitous to bottle size. Carl then keeps the bottled Calamitous and asks Wanda to turn him into Mrs. Neutron for the Friday the 13th Dance.

[edit] Nicktoons Unite!

Professor Calamitous recruits Vlad Plasmius, Denzel Crocker, and Sheldon J. Plankton to help him with a master plan that will change life for Jimmy, Timmy, Danny, and SpongeBob. Calamitous' plan was ruined by a certain yellow sponge.

[edit] Powers and abilities

Calamitous can build inventions. Unlike Jimmy, he almost never finishes his inventions; at first he can barely even finish a sentence. In his first appearance, Calamitous frequently forgets what he was saying or doing, such as wanting to use the restroom and looking for Jimmy. Calamitous is seen in his robot suit two times.
