Started 16 on My Adventures With Superman this evening and it's love at first watch.
I said, "Good. You have found your Superman."
People who think Superman is a boring character and too overpowered have never really paid attention to Superman.


16 said- "The art. The lighting! The colors! It's vibrant without punching you in the face!" (16 is an artist)
I smiled because there are so many people who are hating the art style in this show.
But it truly is beautiful.
Metropolis in the morning in golds and blues is absolutely stunning.
Vaguely glistening stalks of corn in the Smallville sun. Just gorgeous.



@Shelter I still have to start that show!!! I think I might wait for all of it and binge it over a weekend

@Rstrahs

After today only 3 more episodes/weeks for this season.
I'd definitely do that if I weren't already completely invested in the story.

@Shelter have you happened to watch Harley Quinn? It is gross out humor but I love that show.

@Rstrahs @Shelter I've only seen a couple episodes of HQ but the one with Swamp Thing wearing a manbun was hilarious

@GlennS @Rstrahs
Goddammit I need sleep and this is highly enticing.

@Shelter @Rstrahs Okay, I just watched the first two eps of My Adv w Superman and it's fantastic! And Jack Quaid (Boimler/Wee Hughie) is voicing Clark? Brilliant!

@GlennS @Rstrahs
I was watching part 1 of the first and was like- That's Quaid, and I smiled and felt that love when shit is done right.

@GlennS @Rstrahs
In the early 90s I had this exact experience with BTAS and The Joker by watching the end credits and seeing Hamill and being rocked back and laughing out loud with delight.

@Shelter @Rstrahs My son and I were just talking about this. Mark Hamill IS the Joker. All others are pretenders. Forget Luke Skywalker. The Joker is the role that Mark was intended to play.

@GlennS @Shelter Mark Hamill even did the voice of Joker on the shortlived Birds of Prey live action series. Granted, Joker was in the show for maybe 30 seconds laughing in one scene but it was Hamill so I noticed.

@Shelter @Rstrahs And when it comes to Batman, Kevin Conroy is the definitive Batman. His voice is perfect. When The Brave and the Bold came out, I loved the show, but I knew Diedrich Bader from the Drew Carey Show, so I couldn't get used to his voice for the longest time. Objectively, he was a really good Batman, esp since this was a more comedic take on him, a spiritual cousin to the Adam West version, but he had two strikes going in, I knew his voice AND he was NOT Kevin Conroy

@GlennS @Rstrahs

Also I think it's hilarious that I am 52, his father has the most infectious smile in Hollywood, his uncle is completely bonkers, but he's naturally Quaid to me.
All others have their first names appended.

@Shelter @Rstrahs Yeah, who knew that all those roles where Randy Quaid played a lunatic, he wasn't acting at all. He was just reading the lines and being himself

@Shelter @Rstrahs I caught up with all seven episodes this weekend. I'm loving this thing! Mallah and the Brain were perfect! And Mxy and the Legion of Lois Lanes killed me! Plus, all the easter eggs! And every episode just keeps getting better than the one before it
