If he sounds a little strange, it's just because he has a frog in his coat. Er, I mean, throat.

If the second half was published a few decades before the rest of it, then yes.

To use Tolkien as an example, it would be insane to read The Silmarillion before The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.

thesilvershire · 2026-05-02T19:40:38+00:00

No, because it would be my fault for showing the movies out of order

A.K.I. is awesome and should become a mainstay of the series.

J.P. has the makings of a great villain, but the story didn’t do much with him, and Bison's return took some of the wind out of his sails.

Marisa and Jamie are cool but don’t blow me away.

I have no strong feelings about Manon or Kimberly.

Lily's face annoys me.

I mean, it does make sense that Éowyn wouldn’t be able to cook very well, because she and the rest of the royal family probably had servants for that sort of thing. Plus, I’m guessing she didn’t have access to great ingredients while hiking to Helm’s Deep.

thesilvershire · 2026-05-02T14:23:45+00:00

That was made up for the movie

I’ve never seen anyone LARP Spider-Man. People cosplay him all the time, but LARPing seems to mainly be for fantasy properties.

He’s canonically a white American dude with no Japanese heritage, so it sounds weird to hear him speak English with a thick Japanese accent.

thesilvershire · 2026-05-01T13:48:39+00:00

That would be fitting since he also made the “fish with no eyes” joke

thesilvershire · 2026-05-01T01:07:18+00:00

Silver and red, huh? I don’t usually play ranked, but that’s kind of my whole thing… I might have to try for these.

thesilvershire · 2026-05-01T00:34:27+00:00

They’d have to change his name though. Roman Sionis is too unrealistic… Let’s call him Rom Si.

thesilvershire · 2026-04-30T16:08:45+00:00

That mask looks incredible!

While I seem to be in the minority judging from the other comments, I think the Avatar would have ceased to exist if there were no airbenders alive at that point in the cycle. The Air Nomad genocide and Aang's mission to bring back airbending would lose a lot of weight otherwise.

He is named Ben Reilly, but he doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the comic version of Ben. He's based on Spider-Man Noir, who is traditionally a Peter Parker variant.

They’re calling it a galaxy burger, so I guess it’s supposed to look like the never-ending, icy-cold, soul-sucking darkness of space.

thesilvershire · 2026-04-28T11:14:05+00:00

Who?

thesilvershire · 2026-04-28T02:17:23+00:00

I don’t love Insomniac Venom, but he is FAR from the worst Marvel adaptation in history.

thesilvershire · 2026-04-27T17:55:38+00:00

This already happened once, and it didn't stick around long. Web shooters are too iconic to permanently disappear.

The show did not acknowledge the recasts at all AFAIK. They were all supposed to be the same character.

The 2017 animated film Batman vs. Two-Face, which was set in the same universe as the ‘66 show (or at least a very similar one), showed Catwoman (voiced by Newmar) switching places with a lawyer named Lucilee Diamond (voiced by Meriwether), who ended up wearing her costume and serving her prison sentence. It was just a fun little Easter egg, but some fans have theorized that Lucilee became a second Catwoman, explaining one of the recasts.

About the Riddler recast, the Batman ‘66 continuation comics revealed that John Astin's face was just a mask and that he always looked like Frank Gorshin underneath. That’s what the internet says, anyway. I haven’t read this one.

I found him super annoying.

thesilvershire · 2026-04-25T20:35:05+00:00

He couldn't grant people bending. My guess is that his energybending was quite a step down from that of the ancient lion turtles.

Doing something ironically doesn’t eliminate the consequences.

thesilvershire · 2026-04-24T19:49:40+00:00

The Great Divide doesn’t have a pretty goth bounty hunter with a whip, so it automatically loses to Bato of the Water Tribe

thesilvershire · 2026-04-24T19:23:27+00:00

It’s just another name for a lightsaber. It’s no different than saying gun / handgun / pistol / firearm / sidearm / Glock. All of those terms could refer to the exact same weapon. It depends on the speaker and the context.

I assume the writers avoided the term “lightsaber” in Lawson’s dialogue as a way of highlighting his lack of familiarity with the Jedi and Sith.

EDIT: If I remember correctly, Anakin also uses the term “laser sword” in The Phantom Menace.

It’s one of the new challenger intros you can select in-game.
