This might be a poor take, but stuff like this is why I was so turned off to all this multiverse Spider-stuff. Can't be we just poke fun at what's come before, no, we have to completely stamp on it and grind it into the dust with its irrelevance. Because that always looks great.
@GundamLet
Given some of the horrific acts I've seen performed in mecha to pilots while in their cockpits, this is downright courteous. Cheeky, but courteous.
@trollbombs
@Ieatstuff212407
Wow, this was like a true throwback Cartoon Network bumper from back in the day. With even a dig at Nickelodeon. Well done.
@PR0SECUTORSPATH
I miss this Krillin - back when he was kind of a little shit. He grew out of it, but he still proved himself to be very crafty and capable of strategy to throw an opponent off-guard. Would have been great if Toriyama kept that dynamic going to contrast Goku's.
@Foreverheroics
God. This was so frustrating back in the day. Now it's fucking depressing remembering that Dwayne would pass away a few years after all this crap. And of course the DC big wigs immediately tried to capitalize on it too. Ugh.
@VoicesByZane
For real though, who even drew this? And how badly have they been snubbed? Because I know there are so many artists and animators that would be appalled by this for how much Japanese media inspired them. Like, it's hilarious Dexter of all characters is leading this.
@neo_humanoid
Hrm. So nothing's really changed then. Because that was even the case when it came to Kirby himself. He got paid more by DC for when Darkseid started appearing in cartoons and toylines than anything he did over at Marvel.
@NeilNevins
@andrewnebz
Loved how they animated that scene in the Rankin-Bass special; all these dwarves stacking plates and forcing wine bottles open, a befuddled Bilbo just watching as they run roughshod over his hole like they own the place.
@ComicGirlAshley
I can understand that. I just don't really have enough faith in modern script writers to take them at face value like that. But that's on me.
@FlyEnderSt0ne
@HannaBarberaCap
For real, I hope whoever came up with this turns out to be the kind of hanger-on hack that true professionals in the animation industry wouldn't even give the time of day to.
@kevinbolk
There's something about the fact that in spite of the comical absurdity and escalation that people are actually getting shot up that I kind of appreciate I think?
@KeyanCarlile
Wow, yeah, that's a bit of a shift. I'm guessing either a result of execs handing down some notes or staff taking feedback to try and appeal with a more traditional "good guy/bad guy" narrative? Either way, does not come across well.
@TurboStunkk
I assume Darwyn Cooke wanted to keep as close to the original design of the Martian Manhunter from the 60's era of comics. It's not my favorite, but I think he pulled it off alright in the comics.
It does look real off in animation though for some reason, yech!
@JAXORCIST2
I feel like this is a limitation when it comes to 3D animation on a budget. Like I find Earth Spark has a similar problem, which can be pretty weird when they do have scenes taking place in populated areas that somehow still feel very empty.
@neo_humanoid
I'll say that again - Jack Kirby, the King of Comics himself, was paid more for ONE CHARACTER by Marvel's main competitor than any of the works that are considered foundational to the Marvel universe. And this practice continues today it seems.
In short, FUCK MARVEL
@HannaBarberaCap
In agreement with most everyone, I feel like we've been missing out on the possibility of Tom Kenny voicing a version of Joker in something for a long time.
@TrainerFaura
Much as I love it for being a departure from the games that I found interesting in context, I feel like Lance's Adventure counterpart might have helped add to some of these fanon aspects...
Look at this Leon I got from @/GrimsMimikyu!! Isn't he great? And he's got a little something under his collar - who could that be??
Thanks again, Nat!
@Speyerboot
I loved him stepping in to teach Hank how to make a "Doctail". Just really nice to see him showing some ounce of passion and want to impart something of himself to his son, even if it was most likely in his own self-interest.
@GingaHerb
I think more the argument is that people are still skipping it when there's not really reasons like localized broadcast airing orders anymore - it's just as readily available as the other entries in the series.
@LevityLeviathan
No kidding. Everyone lucked out that the randomly spawned spark given such an OP power was given to someone like Windcharger. Like if Magneto was Mister Rogers. (I'd think of something better but sleepy 😴)
@BeckBomberGirl
@VoicesByZane
Hrmm, looking at his body of work seems like he's had lot of experience in the industry. I'd hope that the pettiness on display is more on the writer's part and maybe Mike thought it was more like poking fun? Either way, not his best work. Very disappointing.
@yugiohtas
Leave it to tokusatsu to clown on television productions with higher budgets with their better realized implementations of visual effect shots.
@SixoTF
All comes down to this. On one hand, a seminal classic with a long lasting legacy, even if it has noticeable faults and shows its age. On the other, an off-beat dark horse entry that proved more than a worthy successor.
In the end though, one shall stand. One shall fall.
@1984BlueStreak
I wouldn't say I dislike it? There are some things that I like that it does and other bits I find are admirable. But after a while I fell out of love with it. Somewhere between too much focus on dull family stuff, big name characters feeling more like guest stars or cameos... 1/
@ancelstephane1
@spcrashworks
That or the people writing these Dex entries can't keep straight if they mean height or length-wise. That's something I've suspected for a long time now is really subject to fluctuation.
@yugiohtas
Also led to a great action bit of Decade using Faiz Axel form to keep up with TheBee's Clock Up. One of my favorite super speed sequences in media.
And because I'm totally on the ball, a trending meme intro from like last December lol

AHHB hello POKETWT ! I made a template for a Pokémon’s compatibility with another Pokemon… it can be used for OCxOC, OCxCC, CCxCC, whatever u wanna use it for ! I also have a version for 3 characters below + the link to the drive !
୨˚̣̣̣୧ Ship name significance
୨˚̣̣̣୧ DragonKingShipping 🐉👑
୨˚̣̣̣୧ Caesar & Leon - champion trainers bearing the name or trappings of "king" each in their own right

Diantha and Nell treat each other as equals, strictly loyal and authentic to one another. Through the fans, fame, & admirers, Diantha values Nell as her wife
@raven__desk
Yeah looking back on it this bit was really odd considering how in past series (G1, Beast Wars, etc.) it's been totally possible to scan skeletal or fossil remains to generate an alt mode.
And yet Nightshade getting theirs from a statue of all things isn't touched on at all?
