    I wish I had a cookie every time Vangelus ends up ranting about Starscream and Alexis.

    Actually, Doctor Doom was involved with the backstory of Marvel Crossovers Venom and Carnage

    He built it for the Symbiotes...

    There it is! Was starting to get antsy...though now I realize that this one came out at exactly the expected time so I guess I'm just being impatient. :/

    By the way, where are you guys with listener voicemails right now? I want to hear your reaction to me trying to replicate a landline click with a cellphone.

    Also, I really really want a supplemental that's just Vangelus ranting about how much he hates Transformers Super Link for two hours.

    That would be fun.

    Since it was brought up, just an FYI for others, a timeline of Joss Whedon stuff:

    1997-2003 - Buffy the Vampire Slayer 1-7
    1999-2004 - Angel 1-5
    2002-2003 - Firefly (three eps aired in '03, all of the others in '02)
    2005 - Serenity (film sequel to Firefly, shooting didn't start until '04?)
    2007 - The Office (directed two eps)
    2008 - Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog
    2009 - Cabin in the Woods (co-wrote & produced; wasn't released until this year due to MGM's issues delaying the release for a few years)
    2009-2010 - Dollhouse 1-2 (it was just two seasons, not two and a half)

    He's also been involved in writing comics for almost a decade, including the Buffy comics since '07 (he hasn't written all of them, but steers things creatively I guess since the comics are canon) and Astonishing X-Men from '04-'08 (more or less).

    Anyone else think Gore Verbinski would be a great choice for a Transformers movie? You know, the guy who directed the first three Pirates of the Carribean Movies and Rango? Not only is that guy really good with CG effects, but he does some of the most wonderfully fun and creative action scenes out there. I think he would be perfect.

    I guess I was lucky that I didn't see all of Armada as then many of the issues with Energon didn't bother me so much.

    I don't tend to pick on that show that much as many of the negative issues with it apply to 60%+ of all Anime and it's no different from Pokemon, Beyblade or Digimon having dodgy seasons/shows on the back of very good ones.

    I like my toast to be just barely golden and crunchy, marmalade on it (a mixture of strawberry and grape; I hate peanut butter), and Tropicana no pulp. Ketchup.

    All I want is Hasbro to get Gainax to do the animation and maybe write a show, similar to how Animated was animated by Mook, The Answer Studio, Studio 4°C and Barnum Studio. That is all I want, a Transformers show that looks as good as either Gurren Lagann or the Rebuilds of Evangelion.

    We already have one, Supplemental 3; it's only seventeen minutes however and not only on Super Link/Energon.
