Re: Beast Wars: Deep Metal

I actually liked Season 2 of Shadowraiders because it got more mature and settled in. I didn't like how abruptly it ended with the story around the prison planet fragment, but I appreciated the ending where the protagonists for once "win" by simply surviving, not attaining victory. That makes the B...

Re: Beast Wars: Deep Metal

I wish they'd done more with Depthcharge. Him being a loner combined with how the series got went towards the end didn't allow for much room to show depth (heh) to his character beyond single-mind revenge. The entire third season suffered a little from the "make things into new toys" mandate they h...

Re: Batman Beyond: Rebirth

Don't forget Carnage. He made the best Venom movie so far. Carnage is just ripoff Venom, after they turned the character into a hero because he was too popular not too. The same way Hobgoblin, Grey Goblin, Demogoblin and ProtoGoblin are shallow copies of characters that came before. Or Red Hulk and...

Re: Batman Beyond: Rebirth

I don't think the rogues gallery really compares to Spiderman though. Well sure, Spidey's had decades to hone the gallery down to the really memorable ones. Original Batman for that matter as well. You look at those early Spider stories, and you got Doc Ock and Sandman and Vulture and Lizard and El...

Re: Batman Beyond: Rebirth

Batman Beyond was the best Spiderman cartoon ever done until Spectacular Spiderman came along.

Re: Lower Decks - "Moist Vessel"

All three of those films you mentioned have a ton of scenes that are about moving the plot along and not making jokes. Outside of something like a later Leslie Neilson film where its a joke every 20 seconds, very few comedies are on full-joke mode 100% of the time. Even Ghostbusters, considered one ...

Re: Lower Decks - "Moist Vessel"

And speaking of comedy, the tone of Star Trek has already been set by almost 700 episodes. While some episodes were more light-hearted and comedic, both animated and live-action, they were never comedies, unless you count the unintentional ones. They've absolutely had full blown comedy episodes ple...

Well now I need to hear this theory!

Re: Interstella 5555

I don't know how to feel about the fact that the in depth hour and a half meticulously researched review on Planet of the Apes has almost no conversation, while this extended music video has four pages discussing how to pronounce the title.

Re: Interstella 5555

Even the dub of Galaxy express calls it "three nine". It's not an inflection or a language thing... it's how its intended to be read, even if it goes against normal English reading patterns. The same way you see a title like Hunter X Hunter... the X is silent. You don't say X or Cross or anything......
