Well yeah thanksgiving isn't for a few weeks but wanted to get this out before thanksgiving.
Things I'm Thankful For In 2011:
Shout Factory releases Transformers: Headmasters. It's about freaking time this series came out in USA. It was released in UK on dvd but never hear. Next year Masterforce and Victory will be released on DVD too and can only hope it leads to Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo coming out here too.
Galaxy Express 999 and Demon City Shinjuku coming out on dvd and announcement of Lupin III TV Season 1 coming out next year. I love the company putting these Anime out.
Power Girl and Stephanie Brown fans. DC may have given the screws to these characters but the way fans have gone to bat for these characters give me some hope for my fellows again.
Trigun Badland Rumble. Seriously the fact that this movie came out this year is awesome. Trigun is a favorite Anime of mine and really awesome that they finally made something new.
Barbara Gordon gaining back her ability to walk back. I was never a fan of what Killing Joke did but her return to Batgirl worried me. Now Stephanie Brown hasn't appeared yet and makes me worried that she will die in Batman Inc special. I am really enjoying the new Batgirl series and don't find the fault some do. I think they want barbara to just be perfect and looking for anything to complain. Her freezing up issue one makes perfect sense. Though I would like her to be able to walk but still be Oracle because she had retired for a while before being shot. So character wise she could have gone that route without needing to lose ability.
Batman: Arkham City. Awesome game and I love that it just as good Arkham Asylum or just even better.
Captain America and Thor. Two really big surprises this year when it comes to movies. Both were awesome movies
Finding That Guy With The Glasses web site. I love this site and recommend it to anyone that hasn't yet. Reviews Movies, Comics, Video Games, Anime, Manga, Music. This is my kinda site as a nerd/otaku.
Sailor Moon and Sailor V being published by Kodansha. I am a big fan of Sailor Moon and the fact that manga is getting released is great. Is fun read again after all these years and we finally get V manga. Sailor Moon manga is different enough from anime that can be enjoyed on it's own. I love the fact that it's doing so well sales wise. Shows that Sailor Moon is still popular beyond ton cosplay at conventions.
Things I am No Thankful For In 2011:
TV Networks movie time slot of shows around. Naruto Shippuden, Transformers Prime, GI Joe Renegade, Batman: Brave and Bold, and others just moved around by there networks without notice pretty much. It's annoying.NBC giving Chuck only one more season. :( Got nothing more to say about it other then it sucks.
Chaos War ending. For whatever the reason Herc needed to be de powered and dead Avengers needed stay dead. Which fans didn't like and Herc comic ends up canceled.
Continue use of bad replacement characters like Lyra, Red She-Hulk, RHulk, Jamie Reyes as Fake Blue Beetle, Fake Spider-Girl. Oh hell Damien replace Tim Drake as Robin stupidly.
Flash Point, Spider Island, Fear Itself, Schism, and just about any other bad event this year. These have gotten old years ago and they are bad. I would love to see the Spider Island end with Mary Jane keeping her powers and that would have made post OMD a little good. A tiny bit.
New Venom. Seriously Flash Thompson as Venom is worse then Scorpion.
No license rescue for Sailor Moon Anime. This has made me sad but I don't expect it to ever happen. I hope I am wrong with that.
DC Reboot. I'm calling it reboot because it's 90 percent that and 10 percent relaunch. Why? Terrible costumes, terrible characters, changing characters, missing characters, terrible books. People want Captain Marvel and Marvel Family. They don't want some curse or that. They want Power Girl and Stephanie Brown not OMAC or Captain Manhattan I mean Atom or Batwing or I, Vampire or others. Don't believe me then look at sales. Some characters have been rebooted back to the start and then so misused. Like Wonder Girl, Superboy, and Fairchild from Gen 13. Then there is needless characters where we could have had any other character.
Grant Morrison's Action Comics. These suck. I am not a huge fan of grant morrison and yes All Star Superman was one of his better books. This book seems to fall in line like Batman RIP and Final Crisis. In that it is bad. Grant tried recapture the magic of what superman was when he originally came out. That superman doesn't work anymore and yes he doing social justice. He is going after the bankers and stuff because of bad economy. The problem is the comic set before the economy went bad and he is not going after politicians like Barney Frank or Obama or anyone else involved. If you only go after one part of the problem then makes you look stupid. Of course superman is in this comic stupid and wearing Jeans and T-shirt.. Don't get me started on armor in Superman or the no marriage.
