This is why the topic is interesting, Kids WB’s longevity meant that it had different eras. For me, Kids WB was in its prime in 2003. I was obsessed with Yu-Gi-Oh!, but stuck around for stuff like What’s New Scooby Doo. I don’t exactly remember when I stopped watching, but I like the idea that...
Honestly? Probably not much. The writing had been on the wall and taking the nostalgia blinders off, it’s kinda shocking how much of a shell Kids WB was of itself by the end. I was very sad to see it go at the time, but it was probably for the best.
What would’ve happened? More EI content...
From what I can see, Weisman hasn’t mentioned this at all. I’m guessing he doesn’t want to rock the boat with Disney too much, but I’m taking his silence as further confirmation he’s not involved. A real shame.
Based on what THR is saying it doesn’t sound like he is, and that would be an enormous mistake.
I can’t say I’m overly shocked this is happening. Disney is reviving whatever old IPs they have lying around, and they’ve been testing the waters with the comics. We’ll see if they can stick the...
So now that NYSNC is back, does that mean the 90s are as well and the last few decades never happened? ;)
Interesting point on Iraq being the final nail in the 90s coffin. It seems to be a point of agreement that 9/11 was the end of the 90s, but this is a good point that Iraq being the...
Went to FanExpo Toronto last year. Admittedly comics are a small component but it was fun regardless. Very well run and met some cool people. It was my only convention and I’m excited to attend another one soon.
Yeah, this rumour has been going around for a while and seems to bubble up every few years. It would be very doable for Apple, we're talking about a company worth more than $2 trillion. Whether or not they have any need to buy Disney is another story. The two companies are notoriously friendly...
It's time to let hand-drawn animation go. Actually, it was time to do that years ago. The Princess and the Frog and Winnie the Pooh came out under Iger's watch, both were an attempt to revive hand-drawn animation and they didn't do well enough. Iger didn't stop hand-drawn animation because he...
That image….really hit me. I was at work when I was first sent my first post, forgot about this and am just revisiting now. Absolute shock still. On my birthday no less…
Greatest Batman performer of all time, it’s not remotely close. Maybe the best performance of a superhero ever. We got nearly...
I doubt it's happening at this point. The Kickstarter didn't get the needed results, not to mention Bluth is now in his mid-80s and hasn't released a feature (or much of anything, really) in over 20 years. We'll see if the live action project is still in development.
I know the 90s Spider-Man cartoon had similar problems, John Semper has said they were banned from using Electro and Sandman because of James Cameron's then-upcoming Spider-Man movie, and apparently those were the villains he was planning on using (although they did end up using Electro once the...
I didn't notice this thread until now. 20 years, unbelievable. I still remember those "Something big is coming!" commercials on Fox Kids and not really knowing what it meant. I certainly didn't know that my favourite block was about to bite the dust. I did keep up with Fox Box for a year or so...
Love the artwork. Faithful to the original designs but a bit more modern and very clean. The art was one of my complaints for the first few SLG issues and so this is very welcome. I would still definitely love to see Greg Guler return to give us a cover or two here and there!
She is the longest serving monarch in British history, yes. I don't know if she's the longest serving rule anywhere, ever.
You're not alone. Anyone born after June 1953 has never known anyone different.
Queen Elizabeth II has died at 96. Queen of the United Kingdom, head of state across the Commonwealth, and the longest-serving ruler in British history. She was a very significant figure in the world and this is a significant loss.
KEEP POLITICS OUT OF THIS. This is a significant news story...
That reminds me... at some point they're going to have to explain why the First Order went back to human Stormtroopers when the Dark Troopers we see in Mando season 2 were MUCH more effective. Yes Luke made short work of them, but he was no longer an issue by the time the First Order came to be...
Sorry to bump the thread, trying to get caught up on a few things...
My understanding is that he's not, he was just some energy in the Upside Down that Vecna channeled. It's a bit confusing but I think the point is that Vecna is the big boss who's been behind everything all along. He's been...
I'm a little bit surprised that shoe hasn't dropped, to the point where I wonder if he was able to get her to sign an NDA (assuming things happened, which I imagine they did). She also spent a very long time struggling with her mental health and possibly doesn't want to revisit this time period...
Just hours before the trailer, another strong denial from Garfield. I stand by original prediction: he's not in the movie and is genuinely trying to save us from false expectations. If he is in the movie, he's not in the trailer. Why would he deny being in it hours before release?
There have been no "subtle teases" outside of heresy, unconfirmed rumours and flat-out denial from both Holland and Garfield. I could well be wrong and I will admit it if I am. That said, one thing I am convinced of is that if they're in it, it will be a brief cameo. I do not for one second...
I have seen a few videos online identifying that video of him on set is a deepfake. It's just impossible to know these days. At this point, I do believe he isn't in the movie. I have a hard time believing he'd be this adamant if he was in it. I get the sense that he genuinely wants to avoid...
Wow, that "there won't be a war" thread didn't age well...
Anyway, I was in third grade, and my mom pulled me out of school that morning. She was paranoid that attacks would come in Canada and my city would be a target. A family friend came to get me, all he said was "there's a war going on in...
That episode freaked me out for a while, but it later became one of my favourites. I went to see a live stage play of the Magic School Bus when I was a kid and it was based on that episode, though it toned down some of the eerier parts (and made it into a full-fledged musical for some reason).
The movie was my introduction to Godzilla. Like quintex96 I remember the advertising campaign more than anything but didn’t watch the movie until a decade later. I remember watching the animated series a lot at the time and having a few of the toys (I actually still have a couple). It was my...
I’m genuinely shocked that Godzilla 98 hasn’t been mentioned, its ad campaign was the stuff of legends. Seriously, go dig around the Internet for some of this stuff, it was unreal. In fact, going into Walmart and seeing all of the Godzilla merchandise are probably some of my earliest memories as...
Killing Die Hard 6 was definitely a good thing. With Alien, Scott is far more of the problem than Disney could be. It’s a reach to say Disney will bring Predator to an unsatisfying ending since Fox wasn’t exactly doing a great job with the be property previously.
Like The Revenant? Interesting.... does that mean it's going to be a visceral, raw, "realistic" survival movie? I could actually maybe see that working for Predator, though I'm also a bit confused why we need another movie. The last one did little to convince me that this franchise still has...
For me, it has to be a sequel. Future instalments and an expanded world have long been planned out and I would love to see the master plan actually come into motion. If Hunter’s Moon was intended to be the end (and it would have been a VERY good ending if it were) then I could be talked into a...
Hmm. So will this exist in the same universe as Detective Pikachu and thus give us the same designs? I liked the world-building of that movie quite a bit but the story basically did nothing for me. This on the other hand has my attention.
Sure, but Rodriguez is famous for being a rebel, one of the pioneers of modern indie filmmaking. Either way I’m glad to have working on Star Wars though even then, his signatures as a director weren’t entirely apparent in that Mandalorian episode.
I'd love that too, but I don't know how much he would want to direct a movie for a giant establishment like Marvel in which the studio is heavily edited in creative choices and editing. It's one thing for him to guest direct an episode or two of Star Wars, but to spend years directing a...
