Too Much Awesome

A few months ago, I wrote about my impressions of the beginning half of Naruto, a series I formerly was staunchly hostile toward without actually ever watching/reading it to find out just why it was such a huge freaking hit.

From comic books to movie screens, GI Joe has survived, but it thrives in the cartoon world.

It’s Monday after Too-Much-Avatar Week. A whole new chapter of the Avatar legend has officially began, and I am indeed a happy camper. You can check out my opinions on the series premiere of Korra here, if you so wish. Short version, it’s pretty awesome. I know I was suppose to have a premiere party [...]

Today we commemorate yet another outstanding achievement of achievement in the world of entertainment. What Nolan North is to videogame voice overs, the man we are speaking of today is to English anime dubs. A voice that makes the sounds of Eric Stuart and Steve Blum seem unique and foreign by comparison. A man who’s [...]

Today, I’ve got some good news and some more good news. The good news is one of my highest 2012 TMA Resolutions has already come true: Nickelodeon’s new Avatar series The Legend Korra now has an official release date. Ladies and Gents, Badgermoles of all ages, set your calendars and DVR’s for Saturday April 14th, [...]
