Like are they gonna reboot the whole franchise with little to no ties to the preceding movies? That... would be interesting.
That’d be an actually decent idea. But they couldn’t milk the IP for all it’s worth with that, so they won’t do it.

I guarantee it’ll just be another retread of the same played out concepts, while dragging iconic characters out of mothballs because nostalgia sells.

A while ago they announced they are making a movie about Rey continuing the Jedi Order and already had Daisy Ridley on board, I am assuming this is related to that (I don't think either announcement said anything one way or the other though) and if that is the case then I could see it being good.

I haven't heard much but this pretty much what I meant with the Dream Team stuff lmao, loved that game the first time I played it. Second time less so. Still, I heard it's got the tech issues with decently long loading times for fights being a pain for some players
Playing it rn, the load times for battles werent that bad for me, at least and i havent seen many frame issues either but thats just me

With the Mario & Luigi series no longer dead, we're still overdue for one game with Wario & Waluigi.

The writing of the M&L games was absolutely MADE for the WAH duo.

The Time Eater sucks
I feel like it was a little better this time on the remaster, but I also might have just gotten lucky.
It's crazy how Generations is straight up a 9/10 (can reasonably argue for a 10/10) game up until Planet Wisp and Time Eater **** it away.
Planet Wisp eventually grew on me, though I still think it did not need to be the longest level in the game.

Which is crazy because Planet Wisp is really good in Colors. They made it way too gimmicky.

Generations is still really great but it kind of loses the plot by the very end.

I'd even argue Planet Wisp is still pretty great.

Time Eater is just awful though.

The 3DS version of Gens isn't anything special but I do have to give it props for the Time Eater fight being actually decent.

Eh it's not the length that's the issue. I just don't think Planet Wisp is as thoughtfully designed as the other stages. It starts off excellent but the building site part falls off a cliff because it really pushes the wisps in an inelegant way and Spikes is just not fun to use with Classic Sonic. Rocket is largely fine though.

I'd even argue Planet Wisp is still pretty great.

Time Water is just awful though.
Modern Sonic Planet Wisp is fine for the most part, just a bit of a drop off. Classic Sonic's Planet Wisp is where a lot of the umbrage is and I think it just comes to a head there because all the modern era Classic Sonic stages have parts that are annoying but Spikes being unfun combined with the length of the stage is egregious.

Time Eater feels like you're steering a car on ice through 5 ft of water and Classic Super Sonic is so bad that you're only using him to swap when you need to.
And the whole "THAT LOOKS LIKE A HOMING SHOT, BE CAREFUL SONIC!" thing doesn't help against the "ugh Sonic's stupid dumb friends" crowd.

7 years ago Sonic Forces came out

10 years ago was the start of the Sonic Boom brand with the animated series

Big day for Sonic fans :nifty:
this alone makes the entirety of Sonic Boom peak (even the games were worth this moment in time)

Only two weeks of YuYu Hakusho left for me. Man what a ride this has been, it's my favorite anime and Yusuke has become one of my favorite characters! Best Shonen protagonist! :D

Sad when it'll be coming to an end. This and HunterxHunter (BTW I know they're from the same author) have been great animes to experience.

Fun Fact: Togashi is married to the author of Sailor Moon.

After this, I'm gonna be taking a break from anime (After I watch the two HunterxHunter movies that were recently added to NetFlix), next one I plan to watch is Black Clover. Gonna get to my annual Christmas movies for December notably Violent Night, new year gonna be watching Godzilla: The Animated Series. Be great to revisit that cartoon, one of my favorites growing up.

The 3DS version had a kickass soundtrack too, the best songs from Gens was from that version.
I don't quite agree with that but it is goddamn criminal that we got that absolutely amazing Big Arm remix you'll never fully hear because the fight lasts a mere 30 seconds
Dandadan is actually super fun.
That first chapter/episode can be a lot for some people and I totally get that but holy **** Dandadan is so much fun and filled with a lot of heart, I feel like it's become an instant classic and the English dub is also excellent, AJ Beckles as Okarun, Abby Trot as Momo, Kari Wahlgren as Seiko and Barbara Goodson as Turbo Granny? Holy **** their performances are great. We also got Lisa Reimond for Aira and I believe Aleks Le for Jiji later on and I'm real looking forward to that, I'm glad you're having fun

I'm watching sub for now but it's nice to hear that the dub is quality. Definitely wouldn't mind re-watching it in English at some point.

But yeah, it's really enjoyable. This is probably the fastest I've grown attached to the main cast in an animanga in some time tbh.
