Gentlemen.
It is...

XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN TIME.

[Mr. Mander]

SO I watched the first six episodes of Korra and I think I already figured out the plot

[Cafall]

she has to learn all of the bendings

probably all of them

[saximaphone]

Oh man...

Xiaolin Showdown is just as great as I remember it.
I will watch ALL OF THE SEASONS.

[LordSeth]

Xiaolin Showdown. I stopped watching towards the later seasons, I couldn't follow it anymore.

In other news, The Mask animated series is freaking hilarious and on youtube. Somebody stop me! (before I run out of episodes.)

Cartoon Network made a music video for Regular show that is ridiculously 80s.
Here it is

NOT AVAILABLE IN MY COUNTRY.
NOOOOOOOOOES.

The Mask animated series

I have a VHS of that.
I remember it being pretty good.

That theme song is so dancey!

[BurntToShreds]

Here, I think this is a region-free version.

[saximaphone]

Looked it up on my own, but thanks anyways.
At least I used that embedding to watch a few Adventure Time songs.

I've been reading CHEW, a comic where poultry is banned and under the jurisdiction of the FDA, the Food And Drugs Agency. They employ people with food related superpowers, like the protagonist, who can learn everything the thing he's eating has experienced. It's very good so far.

Guess what I just bought at a small comics fair, for the low price of €10?



That's right. Three volumes of Hellboy is what.

[BurntToShreds]

Awesome. You should also look into the BPRD series; there are some awesome stories there as well. Lobster Johnson also has a series. Lobster Johnson is a masked vigilante who patrols New Yorks and is not afraid to kill the shit out of bad guys with lots of guns. It takes place during the 30s and 40s, before he went into WW2 and was part of the team that recovered Hellboy.

In other news, everyone who hasn't watched Transformers Prime should go do that now. It is an excellent series.

So, Josh Keaton, who was originally Spider-Man's VA in Spectacular Spider-Man, was going to do the voice for Spidey in the Avenger's cartoon. Instead, Jeph Loeb, who's in charge of Marvel's animation division, decided to redub all of Josh's voice work with Drake Bell's (He's the voice of Spider-Man in Ultimate Spider-Man, which is shit). Even after Josh had already done a few episodes worth of dialog. Source:



It's funny; Jeph Loeb's son died of cancer, so now HE has to become a cancer to every creative project he touches.

[DarkSurfer]

As much as I dislike the "dead son" jokes, I still contest Loeb is an idiot.

There was a marathon of MLP on today, so I decided to watch two or three episodes.
I think I've seen enough now to make an informed decision about it.

I like it and think it's great. However, I have about the same enthusiasm for it as I do for other shows like Clone Wars and Avengers.
They were early episodes, and I have been told that they get better, so I might like those ones more.

Basically, if it's on I'll watch it, but I wouldn't make it a daily/weekly thing.
