I'm glad that the new Teen Titans isn't as polarizing here as it was when it first started. I like what I've seen, it's a lot of fun.

I thought the username was merely coincidence, but the post that earned him his ban basically confirmed that he's the same one who's done numerous pornographic works of cartoon characters at decent or above quality (just look him up on Google. Note: NSFW). I'm actually quite surprised and amused at his appearance, but not worth. Thanks for the update

It's only the studio's collective fear of conservative backlash that's stopping things up. Once one of the big three (Disney, CN, Nick) sees that having the title of "first GLBT friendly kid's network" will make them look damned good in the long run they'll jump at the chance.

There's a bunch of basement-dwelling trolls who hate it that post on IMDB because it replaced Young Justice and/or it's not identical to the old show. TTG is a lot of silly fun, and the episode length is just long enough to not wear out it's welcome.

Also because the first few episodes were between not very good and outright terrible. It wasn't till ghost boy, which is the 9th short in the series that I started to say "oh this show might be okay".

Actually, I watched Girl's Night Out and I basically skipped over the part with the boys since they were pretty terrible. There's definitely some redeeming features, but sometimes the humor flounders when it tries to be straight wacky.

It's had Cyborg explain the plot of the TV show Webster so the show is not afraid of weird references to things the target audience has no idea about. I really expected it to be absolutely terrible but it's really won me over as being an enjoyable and fun use of the property and if the comic it shares a name with was even a quarter this good it'd be the best that comic has ever been.

I've been watching old Dexter's Lab and Powerpuff Girls episodes on Boomerang with my kids, and there's this one PPG episode I never saw before that's a parody of the old Jay Ward cartoons like Rocky & Bullwinkle. It's pretty hilarious how spot-on it is, but I wonder how many kids got the reference 15 years ago let alone how many would today.

Given that Rocky and Bullwinkle was airing on the kids tv channel in Canada in the 90's I'd say it's plausible that more than a few would have got it.

I mean, I like Alfred, and I like that he has a military background, but turning him into Jason Statham is weird. Also, minor design quibble, but Alfred should always have a mustache in my mind and changing that is just one thing that bothers the gently caress outta me. I didn't have near as much of a problem with the animation style as a lot of other people though. Thought it looked a hell of a lot better than GL: TAS if nothing else.

I like that Alfred is basically training Batman this time around. For me, I don't mind him getting into the action or even the no mustache thing (did he have one in the Nolan films?). The next episode with Magpie looks really fun (Grey DeLisle sounds like she's having a ton of fun voicing her). Speaking of Greg, her Wikipedia photo is hilarious. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_DeLisle

Like I said, it's one of those goony nitpicky things that just comes from reading too many comics that I'm sure I'll get over.

Well, this was inevitable...and by "inevitable", of course, I mean completely evitable. The Marvel crossover looks hilarious, though, and knowing the usual output of the show (and all the sci-fi pastiches they've done in the past) I'm expecting this will be just as interesting.quote:A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away -- in summer -- Phineas and Ferb are living happily on Tatooine, just one moisture farm over from Luke Skywalker. They love simply hanging out and creating new adventures under the twin suns, however, they find themselves thrust into a global rebellion when the plans for blowing up the Death Star accidentally fall into their hands.

What bothers me about Kung Fu Alfred is that he has the exact same silhouette as Bruce. One of the most important thing you learn about character design is to mix up your silhouttes and shapes, and to have two out of what, three main characters look identical in dim light seems like a major faux pas to me. I was really surprised by the quality of the animation, though. Those smoke effects were fantastic. Edit: Wikipedia description for an upcoming Teen Titans Go episode: Wikipedia posted:Meatball Party: Raven eats a bad meatball that causes tentacles to spring from her teeth and devour the other Titans. horriblePencilist fucked around with this message at 13:27 on Jul 20, 2013 |

With the structure at Disney it's incredibly difficult to create anything new. That's why they straight up purchase so many IP's.

Honestly, Phineas and Ferb/Star Wars is more debasing to P&F than it is to Star Wars. Also we'll have so many Star Wars fans saying that George Lucas never would have made this happen, along with other stupid bits of nerdrage.

It looks like it's going to be a "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" style thing where Phineas and Ferb's story is taking place in the background of A New Hope, which is actually a clever way to do it, in my opinion:

Nobody else will probably even care about this, but they've officially announced that Season 2 of The Mysterious Cities of Gold will have an English language release. I've been watching the French episodes with subtitles and it's really good so far. We're only 14 episodes in though. https://vimeo.com/68709614

Also, that trailer is sharp as hell! Which network is picking it up? Think they'll rerun the original series to promote it? Probably not, seeing as how old it is but it would be cool if someone did that.

"looks like an old playstation 2 game" is a phrase that makes me feel so goddamn old pac man apparently has some bizarre premise where there was a world war and the ghosts are all the dead from it and pac man is the last of his race. I haven't given beware the batman a chance because I'm tired of batmans. tmnt 2012 season 2 recently had some amazing concept art full of crazy spoilers and body horror, leaving me infuriated that nick still has not finished season 1 and has given no information on when they will.

The latest episode of BtB was pretty amazing, at least. The fighting in this is actually pretty drat brutal... The story is a lot better than the first episode and the voice acting was good too. Though, I watched it after Ult. Spider-Man and Avengers Assemble so it's probably a LOT better to me than most people.
