Is there a site that focuses on fictional (and possibly real-life) "brother and sister" acts? I don't mean lurid acts, the best and most famous brother acts, as well as those perceived to be brother and sisters. I mean everything from Abraham and Sarah to the Wonder Twins, with a heavy focus on pop-culture, of course.
Would you accept lurid acts? I know of a really good one...
Nah, I was thinking along the lines of something more safe for work.
I wonder what started the trend of a brother and sister acting as a combined unit to become a pop-culture staple. Was it the Wonder Twins? Northstar and Aurora?
That is actually an interesting thought. I never really stopped to think about it myself, but that does make me wonder now.
oh yes! *glomps* Hi dustina! :mowmeep
have you seen the Umbilical Brothers (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNgjd9mhM4o)? They're pretty good, though there aren't any sisters involved.
Now that I think about it...its a lot harder for me to think of various well-known brother/sister duos where their being brother/sister was a major part of the set. Most twin-references I can find tend to be same-gender types.
The only thing I can consider, though I cant find any websites at the time...is that many circus acts tend to be family-groups so it is pretty common for a few of the performers to be brother/sister ones.
i'm sure we can think of some...
In Sailor Moon, Alan and Ann did make a good "pretend" brother and sister act.
Rex and Cassie (http://www.geocities.com/kirsteniskewl/) from Days of Our Lives were fraternal twins who often acted in tandem.
There's Eireka and and Ephraim from Fire Emblem: the Sacred Stones.
There's Android 17 and 18 from DBZ.
Would Luke and Leia from Star Wars count? Given that they don't know about their lineage until the end of the trilogy, I don't know.
I'm sure someone can think of some more.
Jack and Meg White from The White Stripes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_White_Stripes). Although, it's a well known secret that they aren't really brother and sister.
Palom and Porom from Final Fantasy 4.
Hmmm...
- John and Joan Cusack
- Hansel and Gretel
Raine and Genis from Tales of Symphonia. Granted, they're quite a ways apart in age, but they're still great together.
I always have 'em in my party. :3
The Carpenters.
Monica and Ross from 'Friends'.
Ho hum.
