Little late to the party on this one. Just saw it - really, really liked it. Much more than I thought I would.
One question - What's the deal with Reverse Flash/Professor Zoom? I don't know this character.
He sure hated Flash, and his feelings seemed to go beyond the usual 'I'm a villain...
Well that was a lot of fun. Great finish.
I will miss this show; looking forward to the reboot or whatever it is.
I want 48 episodes of the Cap and Spidey show. Loved their (sadly limited) interactions over the course of the show.
Pretty good - did anyone else think that animation was bit rougher and looser than season one? Wasp and Sue had giant man-hands.
"Wasp threat level: Low." Well, at least the writers acknowledge her uselessness.
Wow. Just awful. If you want to turn Spider-Man into a pure comedy, instead of the mix of comedy and drama the best Spidey stories have always been, then you need to make it funny. About 1 in 5 of the gags landed. The rest was painful.
I laughed harder at the Marvel Mash-Ups. "All hail the...
The show is being used to promote the Avengers movie - to introduce young viewers to these characters so that they're eager to see them on the silver screen. It's why Ant-Man, Wasp, and the Black Panther are nowhere to be found on the front cover. Hollywood Heroes only!
That's Disney's purpose...
Do NOT waste your time on the 'Unmasked' trivia track thing. It's nothing any Marvel fan doesn't already know.
Did you know that Iron Man's suit gives him the power of flight? Or that Hulk gets stronger as he gets angrier? These are just a couple of the fascinating tidbits that await you!
I...
I didn't care for it. I found the strip club scenes to be sleazy and distasteful - nothing that belonged in a superhero cartoon.
I realize that sensuality has always been a part of the Catwoman character, but this was too overt. It's a shame, because the action that followed was quite good...
Where did the martian chick come from? I though J'ohn was the last of his kind? And it sounds like they're going to make her 'cute', which is a shame. J'ohn was cool because he was a bit of an oddball.
These names - KId Flash, Aqualad - ug. No good superhero name involves the word 'lad'. Sorry...
Just watched the new one and rewatched the other three. They're all great. All four. I want more more more. The length is great for the stories they'll telling.
For what's it worth, I'd love to see an Adam Strange one. The Atom would make a cool one too.
Maybe they're not showing Nick in WW2 because the army wasn't integrated then. I know, I know - who needs realism when you've got frost giants and super-soldier serum? Granted.
Still, Ultimate Nick Fury (more or less the official one these days) differs from Original Nick in that regard.
I dug it.
Wonder Man was just the sort of lame character that made me pass Avengers comics by for X-Men comics back in the day, but this was handled well. Glad he never actually went by 'Wonder Man', and I'm also glad he burned through that awful red and green get-up for a pure purple energy...
It was great seeing Cap in action - well done there. I hope they keep dealing with the 'man-out-of-his-time' thing.
The dough monsters were a little silly for me - and they went to the well of 'Look! Our heroes are covered in goop! How humorous!' too often.
I didn't read many Avengers...
Maybe Cap and Tony should co-lead. Cap is a man completely out of his time - he has missed out on 65 years of cultural, historical, and technological development.
He's a natural field commander - and maybe he should be in charge of strategy against the villains, but when it comes to running...
Not much to add, other than I'm loving it too. I think Fury's design is a bit too youthful, even with the gray hair, and the intro song's a bit cheesy, but those are nit-picks.
It's a show steeped in Marvel lore, and I love all the name drops and easter eggs. 'Vigilante punishes again' indeed...
I didn't hate it, but didn't care for it.
It had some cool ideas, but much I didn't like.
- I never like the idea of Mom sewing the costume. It should just have come premade in the rocket - an example of Kryptonian garb.
- I don't like the idea of the Kents designing the insignia either...
I wasn't being clear there - of course she wouldn't want to eat a dog. My point was why would eating other animals be ok to her? What does she know about cows and pigs? She spent a week in the fortress surrounded by Superman's alien zoo.
It's a minor point barely worth mentioning, and I regret...
All good - this is a discussion board and that's all we're doing. :)
I know what it's like to love something everyone else seems to dislike. I love Ang Lee's Hulk. Let's not even go there.
Good point too about how people will say more when they have negative feelings about something. It's why...
But a well done story can overcome bias.
Quick example. I prefer Batman stories when he's solo; don't care for all the sidekicks. But I love the sidekick-heavy 'Red Hood' because it's so excellent.
I admit I haven't cared for Supergirl in the past, but this film had the opportunity to make me...
Didn’t care for it. I really don’t like Loeb’s work on the Superman/Batman comic, so it’s no surprise I wouldn’t like the adaptations. Some of the recent DC animated films have been fantastic (I loved Crisis and Red Hood), but these…bleh. There was nothing in this one as aggressively stupid as...
Just gave this another viewing and liked it even more, but man does Batman get beat up a lot in this. Superwoman beats him up, Johnny Quick beats him up, Owlman beats him up - it's a wonder he has any teeth left by the end.
Part of that is just who he is. He's a big name, highly talented actor. And to have him come on board a project like this and give voice to such a (let's face it) obscure character is great. Woods obviously took the project seriously, gave it some thought (read the interview), and nailed it. So...
I liked it very much. My favorite Crime Syndicate story of all time is Morrison's and Quitely's Earth 2. There, the CS is truly depraved, ruling as cruel dictators. I would have loved to have seen an adaptation of that, but this was good.
Most of the JLA seemed equal to their counterparts, but...
My problems with this movie were the same I had with the book, so it’s not the fault of the filmmakers. I love the first two thirds. I’m not crazy about Superman’s design, but Batman looks great.
The Batman/Superman rocket is an aggressively stupid idea. Not only that, but it comes out of...
Whoa whoa whoa -
So Tony Stark wasn't an "actual character" until this show came along and took that amazing step? I think we'll just have to agree to disagree here. I'm glad you enjoy the show.
Still too old to be part of the Punk'd target audience, but maybe she read about it, or overheard Peter or one of his friends talking about it. Didn't bother me.
Fine - forget the drinking and forget the playboy lifestyle. This show is still a warped version of the Tony Stark Stan Lee envisioned.
Spider-Man, the original X-men - they were kids (teens.) Tony Stark was deliberately designed to be a man of experience - part of the establishment and the...
Oh - ty - all praise to them then. I do like the style. The action scenes are worthwhile. I'm hoping the live action Whiplash is as cool and as dangerous as the one from this series was. That was a cool fight.
But that's a legitimate reason to dismiss it. The Tony Stark I know and love is a womanizing drunk, not a kid rushing to math class.
I do love the animation - the same guys who did the MTV Spider-Man yes? I love their work.
I was never one of those people. I liked Stewart's practical approach. If you're a Green Lantern and I'm falling from a building, just throw the light around me and save me. I don't want to see any catcher's mitts.
Just got this from Netflix and watched it. I thought it was only OK, but then I've never been a huge GL fan, so take that into account.
When the GL's are using their rings as energy weapons, force fields, flight - that sort of thing - they're pretty cool. It's when they start making big green...
Jeez - how big is that school? They were falling past dozens, maybe hundreds of floors. Students there must be in great shape.
I'm not at all a fan of Venom, but I still liked this episode - that's how good it was.
Just how many "hit points" does Spidey have, for lack of a better term? He...
I was going through my DVDs the other day, and I noticed there were a handful of episodes from B:TAS and S:TAS that I had never seen, including "Superman's Pal."
I wasn't expecting much - a Jimmy centric episode sure sounded lame - but I loved it! Not for the Metallo fight at the end - pretty...
Forgive me - I'm sure this has been addressed previously - my search led to many results, but not the answer I was after. Perhaps my search kung-fu is rusty.
Anywho, do we know if season one of the Spectacular Spider-Man will find it's way to Blu Ray? I don't want to buy the DVD if a BR...
Diamond it is.
ty guys
Always loved these. Had a tape at one point - way past time to get the DVD. Such beautiful animation, and I like how they made Superman tough, but not too godly. He gets knocked around a bit, and has to work for his victory.
Plus, you can set your watch to Lois'...
Hello -
First off, I'm not a fanboy of either Microsoft or Sony. They're both fine machines, and software is the most important thing. This isn't meant to be a "which is better" thread.
But - my second 360 recently red-ringed on me. (I know - that's nothing, I've read about people on their...
