The moon is also, like many motifs throughout the show, a symbol of change, which is the main theme of the show.

Frogs, butterflies, moths, dragonflies, and autum leaves are also symbols of change that are scattered everywhere throughout the show.

Spoiler

Besides friendship and found family, change is pretty much the core (pun not intended) theme of the show. And I think it might've handled even better than Gravity Falls, which isn't something I say lightly.

There are probably many other subtle representations of change throughout the show that totally went over my head, but the frogs and moths are some of the easier ones to notice when both species are fairly prominent in Amphibia.

Johnathan Majors has been casted to play Kang/all of his variants since Loki

rumor has it that the guy who played Yellowjacket in the 1st movie will end up being MODOK

Yeah I know. He was pretty good in Loki and Im gonna watch the next Avengers movie just for him (Kang is my favorite Avengers villain) but Giancarlo Esposito as Moff Gideon is more in line with how I wish the character was portrayed

it’ll all depend on how Kang will be in Quantummania. Maybe he ends up being perfect choice, or perhaps he only worked best with He Who Remains. Hopefully it’s the former and the guy just has a bitchload of acting range.

and with Giancarlo…I just really need that man to at least voice Norman. If he wants to be Professor X, I can accept that as well

This teaser goes hard. It's really bold of them to not even showcase the core cast in it. Trash is looking badass. lol

I really hope Season 3 turns out better than the rushed mess that was Season 2. It looks like they're getting a new Director to head this season and the series creator issued a statement that it'll closely follow the LN, but I'm not going to get my hopes up. I really want to be hyped but I don't want myself to be let down again. At least the Seven Deadly Sins arc is more episodic than prior arcs so a shorter episode count won't be as detrimental.

Thought this might be coming next year based on the teaser at the end of Season 2 and how rushed things were, but I guess they'll still working on scripts so 2024 seems more likely.

The Deadly Six really need a chance to come back in another game so they can develop beyond what they currently are. Not allowing them to return won't help anything

I'm gonna have to wait for what people have to say after they see the movie since I'll probably be skipping it since I can't remember anything from the last movie other than the side characters being occasionally funny

Both Ant-Man movies are some of the few MCU movies that get better for me each time I re-watch them so the 3rd Movie is something I'm probably more hyped for Quantumania than most people.

Really curious what they have planned to use MODOK & Bill Murray for. Guessing bit roles probably, but I know the latter will get my parents to watch it.

compared to most of the MCU projects, they’ve pretty much just been innocent small movies with little to no destruction caused while still being enough to add long term plot…and the legend Louis (forever loved). This one might not be so happy due to Kang tho

really hoping he don’t kill Scott like people keep predicting

I wonder if Bill ends up either being himself or actually plays a family member to Scott

Honestly one thing I'm not a fan of in the general MCU is the sidelining of Ant-Man and Wasp, since I love EMH's takes on these characters. I do like Scott though, he's funnie, so I hope Kang doesn't kill him

But after I was 50% Love and Thunder would kill off Thor and that ended up not happening I can't see this being any different, especially since he barely had any time to shine

Okay so

How bad is the Werehog really?

Cuz the day stages in Unleashed are looking kinda enticing.

Depends on who you ask. I think they were pretty fun as a hack and slash game but admittedly, you star with very few options until you unlock more combos.

Only one battle theme can get old and some stages overstay their welcome but overall, I enjoyed Night stages as much as Day stages. Though, this may be because I'm also a big character action game fan.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Just played Hugh’s Arcade Mode. I like how this game plays so much more than Multiversus. And dang it I hate that I like how Hugh plays. He has 3 multi hitting attacks and I can consistently pull off that Chun-Li kick.

 

[Hadokeyblade]

I just tried out Red Earth on the Capcom fighting collection.

...I can see why Red Earth has never gotten a home port before this, this is a really clunky game lol

 

[Z25]

I was being sarcastic.

I’m aware which I see you missed my point. I never said it should satisfy you? I said that your problems could be fixed or worked on in future updates.

 

[osby]

I’m aware which I see you missed my point. I never said it should satisfy you? I said that your problems could be fixed or worked on in future updates.

If it helps, I was also displeased with the lack of any single-player mode and they're adding an arcade mode in the next update.

It's perfectly fair to not be satisfied with the current state of Multiversus but it's also obviously going to improve.

On one hand, I hope so. On the other hand, I really doubt it.

I’m skeptical of the arcade mode because they said it was a co-op arcade mode. Really makes me worry it’s gonna be another thing locked behind that big play button that takes you into online with no customization on the AI’s difficulty just like the current method of fighting against bots.

I like Corrin if it wasn't obvious

rn the only thing that can really use Thor for plot wise is to just find happiness, be a big star, and raise a child…well that and I suppose reunite with Loki

If it helps, I was also displeased with the lack of any single-player mode and they're adding an arcade mode in the next update.

It's perfectly fair to not be satisfied with the current state of Multiversus but it's also obviously going to improve.

especially since it’s still a beta and already doing better than expected

i honestly feel horrible for this game’s devs

I'll pray for you.

Membah those pamphlets you got in Nintendo game that were like "If you liked this game try out these three great games!"
And showed games unrelated to the ones you just bought.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

I'll pray for you.

All prayers are much appreciated.

Being a fan of Corrin, and especially Male Corrin, can be tough. But every good art, every adorable support, and every epic Dragon Fang Shot in Smash gives me the energy I need to keep going

And both of them happen to exist on this dimensional plane

Also Color Splash didn't really have memorable characters. It was just Huey and the Koopalings. That was it.

Toad #715 was a breakout character.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

There should be a Paper Mario game featuring every partner from the prior games in the series.

Yes, even the Pixls.

Not counting the partners that didn't survive their debut game, obviously.

Were the Koopalings any good in Color Splash? Did they get any good lines?

Never played it lol

Is that legal?

They were the best part of the game besides Huey.

Now I also haven't played the game nor do I really feel like it (but I will someday) but yeah their writing was actually good, better written than Bowser for some reason.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

Is that legal?

As long as you don't say anything bad about Kirby or Dedede (especially Dedede's crouch), you're usually golden, even if you do like Corrin

it was a cry for help

The back half of the Wii U era felt like that, some times.

They started so confident, so sure that the Wii's momentum would keep on going.

And then...
