Timeless Appeal posted:Well, it's over now. I mean are you saying that it's better than the best of X-men: Evolution, Spectacular Spider-Man, and the first season of Earth's Mightiest Heroes or that it's better than Ultimate Spider-Man? Just better than the other current shows - I guess I thought there was more than just Ultimate Spider-Man. I'm not expecting much from the other Loeb shoes either. Evolution, Spectacular, EMH, WatXM are all better than Armored Adventures, but it's a good enough show if you can forgive the "Teenage Tony" premise.

Okay the idea of Beast Boy painting random animals green so he can gently caress off at the tower is pretty drat funny.

What I can't forgive is the dodgy CG cel-shaded animation. It reminds me of that heinous MTV Spider-man cartoon. Also it looks like poo poo.

Havoc904 posted:Yes. Best Ironman is the show from the 90s where they spent the entire budget on his cg armoring up scenes. Plus a good amount of episodes have Tony running around his house in a speedo. Looked up the Season 2 intro, and HOLY poo poo. In contrast, Season 1's intro is the worst thing I have ever seen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9g2f8f-ct4

Which is weird because I remember the season one finale where Tony fakes his death and everyone is all "You're a dick we're out!" it was probably the first time I saw repercussions for that recurring cartoon plot thread.

Yeah, the Marvel Action Hour, the X-men cartoon and later the Spider-man cartoon were basically my childhood. It made me incredibly excited when I realized that the shows all shared continuity. I already knew all these characters from reading a bunch of old comics I got... from somewhere... including some huge collections of black and white Marvel comics that were apparently sold in a monthly format in France. (Imagine that, getting caught up on all your superhero stuff in one huge brick of a comic per month) Anyway, I already knew all these characters and seeing them get a bunch of connected cartoons made me really excited. I didn't have cable and none of my local stations aired the Batman cartoon, so as far as I was concerned, these were the best superhero cartoons ever made. I loved Stan Lee hosting the Marvel Action Hour.

Season 2 of the 90s Iron Man is pretty loving awesome but the first season is complete garbage. What I read somewhere was that some guy who never read the comics did season 1 and season 2, they cleaned house and put people familiar with the characters on staff. Same thing happened with the FF cartoon as well. X-Men and Spider-Man have aged absolutely horribly, but the voice acting is probably pretty iconic for anyone in their mid 20s to early 30s nowadays. I'm still kind of hoping the "I! AM! IRON mAN *hammer sound*" theme song makes its way into an Iron Man movie someday.

TwoPair posted:I liked Penguin's redesign, although that's mostly just because I hated B:TAS's Burtonesque long-haired Cobblepot. And while I did like Bruce's hair flip, at least that loving mustard suit died with it. Glad the mustard suit was gone, but definitely missed the Bruce Wayne voice. I thought that idea was genius.

FutonForensic posted:Looked up the Season 2 intro, and HOLY poo poo. You're right, I wasn't taking that into account. That intro alone is enough to mark that as the best animated Iron Man rendition. On the face of it, it seems like such ridiculous 90's XXXTREME nonsense. Your first thought is "This is so absurd. Are they suggesting he would really spend billions of dollars to create some insane mechanical prosthesis just so he can personally hand-forge his armor with a hammer and anvil? And even if he did, why is he doing it with his shirt off?" But then you realize it's Tony Goddamn Stark, and that's exactly what he would do, and in fact it's impossible to imagine him doing it any other way.

I think the X-Men show had an episode where the villain was causing calamity worldwide (Dark Phoenix, maybe?) and just randomly Black Knight and Captain Britain are shown flying over London.

The best Marvel Cartoon Cameo is in Fantastic Four. Galactus has beaten up all the heroes. Out of goddamn nowhere GHOST RIDER motorcycles up, stares at Galactus, and then rides off while Tony Jay moans about all the bad stuff he's done. It's absolutely nonsensical and wonderful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJODL_p4ToA

Nope, no context at all. First they fight Terrax, then Terrax makes 'em fight Galactus. Galactus gets hungry, and then Thor and Ghost Rider out of goddamn nowhere.

muscles like this? posted:I thought there was some context to that, it just isn't apparent from that clip? No, that's pretty much it. Like Galactus mentioned at the start, he's been poisoned by some kind of negative cosmic energy and has to feed immediately or die, then all that stuff happens. And when I was a kid this episode made me think Ghost Rider was like a fundamental force of the Marvel cosmos because holy poo poo, the Penance Stare whammied GALACTUS.

Ghost Rider should randomly show up in all Marvel shows to beat the big villains and drive away.

I think that's going a little into over reaction as the premise might be "Rick Jones tries to sell the world on hulk being an ok guy by taking a look at his every day life" but it does baffle me a little. It's either one or the other and does sound kinda above the considerations of their target demographic. I mean do kids watch reality shows? Are they going to 'get' what it is spoofing or commenting on?

That looks alright, but it doesn't tell us much about the general tone of the show. I don't think there's anything wrong with the voice acting, but I am glad they replaced Tony as I loving hated his voice in EMH. Edit: The worst part about this show is that it can't possibly have an intro that's as dumb/awesome as EMH's. Hakkesshu fucked around with this message at 00:28 on May 17, 2013 |
