Open Marriage Night posted:Morrison considers that the best version of Brainiac, and I agree. Same, it makes him have more of a personal connection to Clark (which works especially well in this series that seems to be painting the people of Krypton as ruthless invaders, though I assume it’s not quite as clear cut as that). Curious if we’ll see him this season though since I believe there’s only 4 episodes left at this point

I’m watching the first episode of My Adventures with Superman, and I don’t know why this bothers me, but Lois’ alarm clock clearly has a digital display, but when the time flips over it makes a clack sound like a 70s flip clock.

Ugh. This hits hard, just like Conroy. I like the Harley show (though this season kinda sucks) and I love Margot Robbie’s interpretation, but Arleen will always be my Harley. RIP.

If you think that's nitpicking, check this out:   These are both from the same episode, minutes apart. Clark is somehow both wearing a t-shirt and his costume right under his dress shirt.

I mean not only does he have super speed but he's an established Magical Girl, so he can get suited whenever.

Larryb posted:Does Adult Swim’s website not work in Canada or something? American stuff doesn't work for Canadians, except when it does Although I did decide to check again through my VPN since that first week and it partially works for Americans now. Seems they block the latest few episodes and episode 2 unless you sign in through an American cable company. When I originally saw the blocked second episode I figured they'd block them all except the first (hook people I guess) but weirdly no.

Is it not on Max in Canada? I don't blame anyone for not wanting to subscribe to a new service to watch one cartoon, but they have the majority of the Diniverse on there and the Harley Quinn cartoon.

We've also lost Brock Peters (Lucius Fox), Bob Hastings (Commissioner Gordon), David Warner (Ra's al Ghul), Michael Ansara (Mr. Freeze), Ed Asner (Daggett), John Vernon (Rupert Thorne), Aron Kincaid (Killer Croc), Roddy McDowall (Mad Hatter), Henry Polic (the first Scarecrow) and I'm sure plenty of others from BTAS. And, of course, Adam West.

Goddamn. I didn't realize we've lost so many. Also, I didn't know Ed Asner voiced Roland Daggett.  I am mad at myself for not remembering David Warner, though.

Finally going through MAW Superman and I'm pleasantly surprised how anime it actually is. I knew about the magical girl transformation from the previews but they went whole hog with the designs, animation styles, title sequence, etc. Loved the soft filter look of the romantic scenes.

Yeah it's a really solid show all around. How many episodes are we getting? I think my favorite part is the ending sequence of Jimmy walking.

err it's actually 10 for season one. So that was p much the finale of Season one but hell of a loving banger First of. JIMMY's rich. HOT drat. I was expecting that he had to cancel his Firebird persona period but the fact he got a deal is pretty drat nice. Also even if it's an obvious reveal, yeah General Lane is Lois dad and boy was that Thanksgiving hella awkward. Interesting that the ship immediately triggers when the Kyrpotnite is felt, so it's defintely a defense mechanism. I"m curious what the realtionship betwen Braniac and Kryptonians are. Also I r Really love the design of Braniac. . Shindragon fucked around with this message at 20:16 on Sep 1, 2023 |

I don't understand how the Jor-El hologram would know what Kryptonite was. It didn't exist until Krypton blew up in pretty much every other version of Superman

Air Skwirl posted:I don't understand how the Jor-El hologram would know what Kryptonite was. It didn't exist until Krypton blew up in pretty much every other version of Superman That isn't accurate. Several versions of the story have part of Krypton's demise being that the land itself is literally becoming toxic to the people living there. In fact I think the post-crisis origin was specifically was "A doomsday cult detonated a bomb that stared to turn Krypton deadly, Jor-El first started investigating it due to people seemingly randomly dying, whoops he discovered the core was about to go critical."

Seems they’re currently expecting Season 2 to start up early next year: https://thedirect.com/article/my-adventures-with-superman-season-2-release I hope the show does well enough that there’s a lot more where that came from too Larryb fucked around with this message at 23:15 on Sep 1, 2023 |

Yeah, hopefully that’s not the case as it’d kind of defeat the point of this being a revival of the 90’s series Though to be fair, not even the last season of the 90’s show looked like it did originally Larryb fucked around with this message at 15:47 on Sep 2, 2023 |
