Gargantia was great. It's short (13 episodes) and sweet, so not a big time sink. Plus it has amazing production values. You should love it.Insanityinchaos wrote:You both were totally right. I was thinking Skies Of Arcadia. Also thanks for the anime recommendations. Currently finishing tiger and bunny that Ryan suggested a few times. After that I will totally check both of those out.
Besides Charlie and Higgins, nobody really sounded remotely excited for Villains Month. It just kinda IS.Walzo wrote:I can't believe that when Marvel makes OPTIONAL crossovers you can buy, everyone goes, "Oh they just want more money".
But when DC announces Villains Month, with every book being 3.99 and 16 fucking Batman titles, everyone just turns an eye.
I agree with the Higgins-rationale about MoS. I don't think it's quite as good as he thinks it is, but I loved the film. I think they're comparable with Marvel Movies in terms of being 'big summer action'. But MoS was on a 'different level' because it attempted to have more heart and to be a little more serious/memorable than the shitty drivel that comes out of Marvel Studios which are basically your most boring, safe, uninspired, generic action films.Walzo wrote:Also, Higgins thinking that Man of Steel is on another level than Marvel Movies makes me think he was on drugs during this podcast.
LiQuid wrote:Hey good post Togo. I agree with a lot of what you say. I also think what you've said in relation to the movies out of both camps translates to their respective comic book lines almost too well. DC comics are basically either 1. soulless, superhero buttfucks or grimdark, ragemad anger comics. Marvels books, like their movies have a much lighter tone and focus a lot on personalities and less on generic superheroics. That said, I like both publishers comics for those reasons but tend to dislike the movies from both sides, so I'm not really sure where they're losing me in the transition.
You guys shoulda done it ghetto style. Like, old school tape recorder in the middle of the table.Master Higgins wrote:Bad news, everyone! The podcast mixing board we use to record the Geekbox and Comic Conspiracy died! We'll be picking up a new board tomorrow, but that means we can't record the Comic Conspiracy podcast tonight. The Geekbox should return as normal tomorrow, and we'll have a new Conspiracy episode next week. Sorry, everyone!

You don't just name a character "Cassie" in a Batman show, have her look like Cassie, and then have it all be a big coincidence. Especially in a low-rent CGI show where the whole point of making it that way versus traditional animation is so that you can reuse assets like character models.CrossXhunteR wrote:My god you people. The fact that her name is Cassie means jack-shit. It is no way related to Cassandra Cain.
Are you real? You're kidding, right?Walzo wrote:I can't wait until you guys watch Flashpoint Paradox. I think it's one of the worst animated comic book movies. The animation is SO FUCKING TERRIBLE, and the story just makes you fucking eat violence from every direction.
Anytime I have watched a DC animated movie, I have ended up buying it. But this.... This time I don't know.
