Re: Dragon Ball Z
Wait, is there a Kai version of Buu? What do you mean by "the Buu Saga coming overseas"? And the movie looks interesting. If Mystic Gohan is an issue, though, then Videl shouldn't have a new look, either. That, and I don't like this as much as any of her four other looks. Also: I thought G...

I'm curious how much of this post still holds up following the release of the timeline. Well, all of it, more or less. I didn't go too deep into things but for the first few generations. The one exception is that Majora's Mask does not precede LttP, as it's on a different timeline. Meanwhile, OoT o...

Re: "Nobody Leaves The World Wrestling Federation!" WWE Thre
I'm a fan, of sorts.
By which I mean, if I didn't want to keep watching and supporting guys like Punk, Bryan, Ryder, Ziggler, and others, the recent story with AJ and Vickie and Cena would have made me turn it off in disgust. So now I just watch and am disgusted when that stuff comes up.

Re: Star Fox: The Thread
Star Fox Command was a huge disappointment to me, due to the forced touchscreen controls. If it were regular like the original game and 64, I could probably play it... I wonder if we'll ever get a remake which at least allows for normal controls. As it is, it seemed to bookend the series well enough...

And of course, this all overlooks that the Super Show is where it originated in the first place-- they just didn't make as big a deal out of it as the movie.
I do prefer the "Mario" surname, though, and I wonder if he meant the "actors" thing literally.

Those first two kind of go with what I was saying; it's hard to tell sometimes. It looks like it could be blue, but still kind of looks like the same teal as well... it's tough when they aren't all wide-eyed like in the days leading up to the Cell Games.

Some would argue that liking it at all is liking it too much.
That said, on a personal level, I don't think I've reached that point yet... and this is after I've dressed up as Bob Hoskins' Mario and passed out cards at a convention promoting the site.
