Also, I know I'm a zoomer here, but uh...

Ya'll giving me the stereotypical "The 90s were sooo much better" vibe that nobody really enjoys. I don't know if that was the intent, but I just feel that energy.

Honestly most of my favorite cartoons, or at least the ones that have stuck with me well into adulthood, are from the early-mid 2000s. Teen Titans, Samurai Jack, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Batman Beyond, Justice League, even Danny Phantom to an extent (I don't actually think it's that great of a show objectively, but I have a ton of nostalgia for it all the same). Like I said earlier... I missed the boat on SpongeBob, so.

At least for kid cartoons. The first eight seasons of the Simpsons are a contender for the greatest television series of all time.

Leo got me sad.

im not ready for the sever issues that may or may not happen for Hero

Japan's either going to blow up completely, or somehow get Hero easily while everyone else suffers.

 

[Striga]

Fast and Furious IMO blows Star Wars away (Especially those new movies which IMO weren't needed).

Almost anything is better than the Star Wars movies of the current century.

The benefit of NOT having a Switch.

If I ever do get one, I get to avoid all the hassles of the server crashing.

 

[StormC]

I'm not in any great rush to play as Hero so I'm fine with waiting a day or so to download him.

Now, Banjo... there will be blood shed over getting Banjo downloaded.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Lets be honest guys. This century has spawned some pretty great movie franchises.

The Fast and the Furious, MCU, How to Train Your Dragon, MonsterVerse, etc.

We all can agree on that right?

I mean, a lot of things in the 90s were legitimately great. Admittedly, it might be because I was a kid then, but my memory of the 90s is just better than now in a lot of ways.

Not that things now suck, I would have **** my pants in amazement if I saw Smash Ultimate, anything in the MCU, Breath of the Wild, or Rogue One in 1999 or whatever.

Ditto on that. Glad we agree on the same thing.

 

[osby]

Don't look at me, I'm still waiting for a movie as good as Mummy (1999).

Almost anything is better than the Star Wars movies of the current century.

Each to their own, but none of the new Star Wars movies strike me as anything worse than mediocre.

Rogue One had a very emotionally strong ending despite the weird pacing and new trilogy has fun characters if not anything else. Solo was boring but it's hardly the worst action movie around.

The 90's were amazing.

I watched that last week I believe. Still holds up.

Miles better then that Tom Cruise film that attempted to be like MCU.

I've sat through three current decade Star Wars movies, two were boring, one was an abortion of a film. I have no intention to go through a foruth one.

The post I made earlier...

Oh I didn’t see that,

Maybe, not sure yet.

Also could you imagine your paper boi wielding one of THESE?

 

[Gentlepanda]

- and finally, that WoL-related thing they were teasing in Hero’s trailer... which is surprise, just the ability to put the Galeem and Dharkon auras/fake fighter effects on anyone you choose, it’s treated separately from alts. Expecting an actual WoL Expansion? Too bad!

i'd be very surprised if this actually amounted to anything and wasn't just nintendo's way of accommodating for square's bizarre 'the heroes can only be fighting evil characters' crossover rule that kept them, among other rules (like heroes can't fight heroes), from appearing even in games like DQ warriors

if they didn't use dharkon characters, they would've been limited to smash's handful of villains for the trailer

 

[Michael the Spikester]

They really should had ended the films with RotJ. Had a perfect ending. The empire was defeated, Anakin died with redemption with good still in him and every could finally settle down. Makes its ending all pointless now.

And then the new movies came where Hans goes back to smuggling, Luke becomes a deranged hermit that left his friends and the galaxy under threat and the empire came back bigger then ever...Way to screw it up Disney...

As far as I'm concerned though its in my head it ended with RotJ.

 

[StormC]

That would've been sick though, honestly. Like, imagine Luminary facing off against Bowser, Ganondorf, K. Rool, Ridley, and Wolf in a full CG cinematic?

I know you're joking, but let's be honest, internet is great for geeks. I'd never have anyone except my brother to talk about games or comics if it wasn't for the internet.

I don't expect it to mean anything, but we still have plenty of villains to use in a trailer.

 

[Shroob]

Star Wars? Marvel? They're all the same.

Movie debates are such a pain.

The Force Awakens made 2 billion dollars, so I wouldn't say they screwed it up.

I coulda gone my whole life without **** like Myspace, Facebook, Twitter and Reddit lol. I've seen.... SO much **** fester and spew out of social media it's not funny.

Does it have super edgy Bullet Bills?

 

[Michael the Spikester]

IMO which it didn't. All that film was is just a remake of A New Hope. Also are Bayformers, Twilight and Fifty Shades of Grey good movies then because they made lot of money?

If you loved the film that's fine though. I can't change anyone's opinion and everyone is different when it comes to that. Simply agree to disagree and to each their own.

 

[Gentlepanda]

big brain theory: sakurai is showing off hero in this unusual live gameplay format instead of a regular direct because he really doesn't want to draw attention to the complete lack of DQ music coming in the update

Sturgeon's Law and all.

I complain about fandoms all the time, but a great minority makes them worth going through the bad apples. Usually. I definitely get it if you feel otherwise.

My experience with the internet in the 90s was... I think I brought a permission slip home sometime between 97 and 2000 that my parents had to sign, allowing me to use the internet. Then I believe we had designated times we were allowed to use the computers for just about anything we wanted, so I would wait 10 minutes or more for a video to load on StupidVideos or EbaumsWorld, or play something like that snowball fight game on CoffeebreakArcade. And somehow I feel nostalgia for the anticipation I would feel while things loaded.

I've enjoyed all of the new Star Wars movies.

I feel really sad when I see people **** on the new movies like they do. I've had a lot of fun with each one.

Wouldn't a better rhyme would be "movie debates are quite lame"?

Hope not, I get the feeling Sakurai could be presenting alongside one of the DQ producers.

Still pains me we lost that 'other' site that's not ebaum's.

Dunno if we're allowed to say it's name because the staff is super jumpy lately and I don't want another infracterino

 

[StormC]

Sugiyama is credited in the Hero trailer, and Nintendo is publishing DQ11, so I'm pretty sure they've got a decent amount of tracks for Smash.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Because were on the topic of movies.

Favorite animated film: The Brave Little Toaster/The Prince of Egypt
Favorite kaiju film: Heisei Gamera Trilogy
Favorite killer creature film: Alligator (1980)
Favorite superhero movie: Guardians of the Galaxy 1 & 2
Favorite horror film: Krampus (2015)
Favorite post-apocalyptic film: Reign of Fire
Favorite historic film: Gladiator

Just to list a few.

 

[Noipoi]

Just spent the last hour cultivating a supernatural cowboy soap opera

Like one does

 

[Strong Badam]

A Goofy Movie is one of my favorite animated movies. It just oozes the 90s

Do you even need to ask?

You can say that all you want, but Return of the Jedi was literally never meant to be the end of the saga. There have been plans for a sequel trilogy as far back as the 80s.

Star Wars opinion time: In my opinion RotJ is not only the worst of the original trilogy, but actually just not a good movie. It has a handful of good scenes, but everything about it feels like a cluster**** and I never want to see those stupid bears again.

Need to give it a rewatch sometime, but yeah, that movie is pretty much one of the most 90s movies you can watch.

 

[MSmariosonic]

Ya'll talking about movies and I'm not invited? smh

 

[Striga]

My favorite movies usually come from the 80s, 90s, and 00s.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

As we speak. Crawl has made 45.9 million against its 13.5 million dollar budget.

At this point I'd go on to say its at least made a good profit.
