Question 712: Kermit is no Hermit
Robot Chicken as a show isn't known for having a lasting impression, but this character created as an antithesis to kermit is a pun upon the actual character's name. This 80's go getter went on to define a generation, although his later avatar was a huge disappointment as a mere anticlimatic antihero.
SO ID the character here (not kermit) and who he is based upon from the world of cinema.

Question 711:The best of both worlds?
While our hero, __X__ was training with his father in the Bayankala Mountain Range in some province in China, something rather unexpected happened. __X__ and daddy dearest fell into a cluster of cursed springs. Now the scene with these cursed springs is that whenever someone falls into one of them, they turn into whatever died in the springs long ago whenever they're splashed with cold water. They only way they can return to normal is when they're _______________________.
Now __X__ fell into the spring of the drowned __Y__ which results in his life changing rather drastically. He initially finds himself in various situations that aren't particularly comfortable, but over time he learns to use this to his advantage and often willfully turns into __Y__ in order to complete certain tasks.
Identify X and Y.
Tell me how they can return to normal.

Question 709: Thinking outside the X marked box
A rage comic about a very stupid origin of the name __X__, which was first made for __Y__.

Starting in 1930, he attended the TU Berlin, where he assisted Oberth in liquid-fueled rocket motor tests. Von Braun was working on his creative doctorate when the Nazi Party gained power in Germany. An artillery captain, W. Dornberger arranged an Ordnance Department research grant for von Braun, who from then on worked next to Dornberger's existing solid-fuel rocket test site at Kummersdorf Von Braun's thesis, Construction, Theoretical, and Experimental Solution to the Problem of the Liquid Propellant Rocket (dated 16 April 1934), was kept classified by the German army and was not published until 1960. By the end of 1934, his group had successfully launched two rockets that reached heights of 2.2 and 3.5 km
At the time, Germany was highly interested in American physicist Robert Goddard's research. Before 1939, German scientists occasionally contacted Goddard directly with technical questions. Von Braun used Goddard's plans from various journals and incorporated them into the building of the___________
