I think the advantage Teen Titans had was that the humor at its worst was merely boring. USM humor at it's worst is embarrassing.

I actually liked Teen Titans (it's not a favorite or anything), and I severely doubt that USM would ever make something half as funny as the tofu episode.

I'm not a Titans fan, and  still haven't seen a full ep USM, but I can already tell what the superior show is based on what I've read and the brief bits of footage I have seen.

I still don't think there was a point to the random bits of humor in TT, but I'd take that over USM any day.

I'm also not a fan of TT, but at least that show had some form of effort put into its writing and it didn't forget to have actual plots and story-lines past all of the gags and humor (which I really wasn't a fan of). To me, USM feels like the show we'd get if it were handled by the writers of Family Guy, not Marvel writers themselves. At least TT felt coherent for the most part and had character development.

You know, considering the route Marvel is taking with their animated series, I'm surprised that they haven't tried to turn this into a show.



Although I think if it was done ironically, it would turn out to be a fun show. Especially if they added Deadpool in. ESPECIALLY if they kept Steve Blum as Deadpool.

The only problem is that it would totally not be done ironically.

True.

I hope Jeph Loeb doesn't find this board.

Honestly, I'm not surprised.

Wow....So what was originally supposed to be a kick-ass nod to TSSM with the same Spider-Man voice from that show (and honestly, I think that Josh Keaton has done the best Spidey voice that I have ever heard), has been butchered by Marvel in hopes of trying to promote salvage USM, their failing replacement for TSSM. I really hope that fans get to at least see the original dub in some available form. If Josh Keaton's work has already been fully recorded, then it deserves to be heard by fans who want to hear it. Even if they air Drake Bell's dub-over on TV, I'd still by the DVD sets if they at least gave an option of hearing the original version with Keaton's voice.

I read GregX's blog about it, Didn't know if it should have been posted here or in the Avengers thread. Was a little miffed when I heard about it. since he did record them. If it was Drake from the start, people would be just angry that it was Drake Bell. Shame really.

I also heard that they might have replaced Daren Norris' voice for JJJJ for JK Simmons as well. Don't know how to feel about that.

Well that I wouldn't mind. I love them both as Jamison, really.

I withdraw my previous kind words for macattack.

Honestly that guy needs to just shut the fuck up about his ideas about how Marvel is trying to totally abolish SSM. It was a shitty idea years ago and it's just ridiculous now. Drake Bell is Spider-Man, like it or not, and Marvel wants consistency. Good Lord these SSM fanboys drive me up the wall.

Is it just me, or does Harry's voice actor sound wayyyyyyyyyyyy too old to play him?

This is a total 180 from the last few comic pages I've posted on the board, but how do we get from the Aunt May from here




To what we have in this show?
