  1. Having a programming block centered around Marvel makes sense. Disney XD already had something like that a while back with superhero shows from the 90s. But the shorts? Too much like what Cartoon Network's doing.

    Sure they're stealing CN's idea but that's okay with me if we're getting 2 awesome new pogromming blocks.

  2. My real beef with Ozai is that we didn't get to see him in action until the very end. I prefer a real hands-on villain like megaton or mum-ra. Someone who will get their hands dirty. I feel that at least one mid series confrontation with the Aang gang would have helped, if for nothing else but to show who the strongest is.

    I disagree, I think Ozai is as menacing as anything just calmly sitting in the shadows. I love how millions of people are dying everyday because of him, and he's just sitting comfortably in his thrown. Which makes it all the more surprising when he become crazy with power in the finale. I think that would've been lost if you'd seen him like that before.

    Have said that I'm the kind of person who prefers a villain who doesn't like to get their hands dirty, like Lex Luthor in S:TAS, someone who feels like that kind of thing is below them.

  3. The Spectacular Spider-Man - Finished the first season last night. That was awesome. My only real complaint is that it things could have been drawn out a bit more. The Green Goblin stuff could have lasted the entire season and saved Venom for the second. But these are very minor complaints. This has become my favorite Spider-Man cartoon of all time. Cannot wait to see the 2nd season.

    If you liked the first season you'll LOVE the 2nd season, it incredibly well done.

  4. Just finished season 3 of Breaking Bad and I can easily say this is the best television series I have EVER seen.

    It only gets better with series 4. The only flaw I find in the show, is that the series finales, never feel like finales, they feel more like the continuation of one long storyline.

    I'm about to kill myself waiting for season 4 to be added to Netflix, any idea what that'll be?

    Sorry for mostly having only recent cartoons, but that just my generation I guess. Oh and sorry for the bump.

  6. I am compiling a Christmas list and I was wondering if there were any must own graphic novel suggestions you guys have. I a big fan of Batman comics and at the moment I own Year One, Year Two, Long Halloween, Dark Victory, Killing Joke, Hush, Under the Hood, Mad Love, Battle for the Cowl, and a few others I am probably forgetting. As for Superman I just have the death and return story ark and All Star, and justice league I have Darwyn Cookes new frontier.

    A few that I've put on my list are The Watchmen and Towel of Babel, any suggestions?
