Mattrant:

I'm a little annoyed, disappointed, and upset tonight.

Annoyed that some people can't handle another person's viewpoint and just shrug them off like a fly, even if that person is ON THEIR SIDE (oh, but they make sure to make a snide comment at the last second, knowing I can't retaliate). Disappointed that WB can't throw CN a bone and let them run the third season of Jackie Chan, which is not only 30+ episodes but has already finished airing on Kids WB for some times. And upset that CN has changed their minds about airing To Save a Small Life (a banned Rurouni Kenshin episode originally scheduled for January 16th).

I do think I said that I'd mention what games I've played recently and rate them... well. Prince of Persia was great but had a retarded mindtrip sequence. Max Payne 2 should've had MORE mindtrip sequences, and the story ended up going relatively nowhere in the climax, but it was still very entertaining, and I love the ending song. Knights of the Republic is very involved. I regret that I passed many sidequests by almost finishing them but forgetting to talk to certain people before leaving the planet basically nullified all that progress. No light side points for me.

Why the hell is it called the Light side anyway? Light sounds weak. Light is another word for weak. Dark is a word of power. Shouldn't it have been called the Bright side? Bright is a powerful word too.

[Corrado]

Since this is the thread where CN news is mentioned, any word on when the last 10 chapters of "Clone Wars" will air??

[Sketch]

One show that is slightly worth watching? Sheesh maybe they should have rerun a marathon of the first five episodes of TMNT like so...

07:00 - He-Man - "History"
07:30 - TMNT - "Things Change"
08:00 - TMNT - "A Better Mouse Trap"
08:30 - TMNT - "Attack of the Mousers"
09:00 - TMNT - "Meet Casey Jones"
09:30 - TMNT - "Nano"
10:00 - Justice League - "Maid of Honor"
11:00 - Rurouni Kenshin - "Farewell to the Strongest Man"
11:30 - Samurai Jack - "XX"
12:00 - .hack//SIGN - "Declaration"
12:30 - Knights of the Zodiac - "Battle on the Island of Spirits"
01:00 - Justice League - "Maid of Honor"

It certainly couldn't have hurt, but then again I want TMNT on Toonami so putting it on SVES even once would probably keep it from ever going to Toonami (if it does well).

Anyhoo I'm taping the whole thing to watch for new Toonami adds and Cyborg 009 adds.

[Anime Guy]

And upset that CN has changed their minds about airing To Save a Small Life (a banned Rurouni Kenshin episode originally scheduled for January 16th).There's no reason to skip this episode. I've looked around Anime News Network and they said that:
The only other problem is that the Hishimanji gang wear swastikas on their jackets.
They also said that:
If this symbol was an issue for CN they could have easily painted them out digitally as they did with the cannabis leaf on Jet's shirt in Cowboy Bebop.
Problem solved.

What exactly is a mindtrip sequence?

Why the hell is it called the Light side anyway? Light sounds weak. Light is another word for weak. Dark is a word of power. Shouldn't it have been called the Bright side? Bright is a powerful word too.
I guess it's light because light and dark go together. Bright is a better word, though.

It certainly couldn't have hurt, but then again I want TMNT on Toonami so putting it on SVES even once would probably keep it from ever going to Toonami (if it does well).Sounds good. Except, wouldn't Toonami cut the intro and make their own?

[Obi]

Is there any particular reason that they've decided to put Jackie Chan back on at 8:30 or is it just one of those "made on a whim" changes?

[Obi]

Anyhoo I'm taping the whole thing to watch for new Toonami adds and Cyborg 009 adds.

You actually expect them to start advertising for Cyborg 009 when it doesn't start until the end of the month?


*secretly wishes they'd start airing Energon commercials*

[Corrado]

Only highlights of "Knockover on Planet Zi" were Sweet acting crazy, and the bad guys calling R.D. an idiot.

Out of 5, I give it 1.5.

[Anime Guy]

It's nice to see the first episode again of ZF again. It's much easier now that we know everyone's name. It was weird not having Matt around. Good seeing more of Hop too.

And R.D.'s "And this one just sucks" being left in when he was trying to choose music to listen to.

[Mog]

Mindtrip scenes are when you go into your head to relive scenes or travel through your mind. In MP you were drugged and went into your head. You were running around on this thin lines of blood and visited each room of your house on the night of your families murder. Sound was vital because you could hear your wife yelling and the baby crying, and it was all-around eeire. It was one of the best parts of the game.

On another note, RK rules. KOTZ sucks, and Matt must have given up on the funny titles. Shame on you :mad:

They'd make their own intro yes, but like most American animated series (because the episodes are shorter) retain their original openings as well (such as Justice League, Batman, Superman, Batman Beyond, He-Man, Transformers: Armada, etc.) and I don't see why TMNT would be any exception. But I'd be fine with the intro being cut out all together because frankly it can't hold a candle to the original and I'm getting sick of seeing it.

[PaQ]

SVES Thoughts:

Zoids Fuzors: Great episode. First time I saw the first episode. It makes a lot of sense watching it as I know the characters. RD almost seemed like a capable pilot in this one.... almost.

Pokemon: Must be the night for first episodes.. I always liked this episode. It's interesting to see how Ash sounds when the series first starts. Pikachu and his shocking statements added a lot to the show.

JL: Bruce coming over to shmooze with Diana. Good ol' DarkKnight knows how to have fun with coworkers when he's off the clock..http://forums.toonzone.net/images/smilies/wink.gif Diana's outfits were definitely a must see.

That's it.

The original must've been really good. I love theme for this one. I even have it memorized. I bet you're happy to see such fans around here, aren't you?

[Majin_Megabyte]

That sucks "To save an small life" won't be airing again. Least I got the dvd with that episode for christmas. And I have to said its not an bad episode.

Indeed I am.

You should try to find a video clip of the first shows orignial opening. It had a wicked awesome theme (my favorite cartoon theme of ALL TIME) and kick'n animation. Its fast, furious, and fun to watch every single time.

"When the Evil Shredder attacks.." That one?

Sounds cool.

Cleaned it... Didn't realize it got fullhttp://forums.toonzone.net/images/smilies/sweat.gif

Something like "Heroes in a halfshell, Turtle Power!
They're the world's most fearsome fighting team."

Something like "Heroes in a halfshell, Turtle Power!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
Heroes in a halfshell, Turtle Power!

They're the worlds most fearsome fighting teens,
They're heroes in a halfshell and they're green,
When the evil Shredder attacks,
These turtle boys don't cut 'em no slack

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Splinter taught them to be ninja teens, *he's a radical rat*
Leonardo leads, Donatello does machines, *that's a fact jack*
Raphael is cool but rude, *gimme a break*
Michaelangelo's a party dude! *wahooooooo!*

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles,
Heroes in a halfshell, Turtle Power!

[Duke]

Sorry HL, but you got one thing wrong. The second TMNT chorus doesn't have the third "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!" nor "Heroes in a half-shell."

Also, you forgot all the little comments after a few of the lines.

[Sketch]

Indeed I did forget that but I wasn't planning on adding the blurts...

Anyway I fixed it. Happy now?

[Duke]

You forgot "We're really hip!" and "Hey, get a grip!" during the first two lines of the first verse.

And you forgot the musical notes so I can play them on my Ocarina of Time.

Also, you might like to know that the new video games include an instrumental remix of the old song during the victory celebrations. A little nod from Konami.
