GET A LIFE!


I`ve watched the new video and the trailer/clip for this new cartoon and I think it`s going to be awesome...for kids!
I can`t get over how many "pureists" are knocking both the show and the new video game calling them of all things "childish" (lol).
Do they forget comic books & cartoons were originally created for children then adults took over and all of a sudden if a show or book doesn`t have some dark serious overtone it immediately "sucks" in the eyes of the pop culture know-it-alls.
Some may call it a toy selling tie in, but my son has most of the super hero squad figures and he plays he`s been playing own adventures with them for 2 years.When I showed him the clips he was jumping up and down with excitement, as far as I`m concerned this show will be a hit with non judgemental adults and kids alike.
can`t wait for the mid Sept. release of the first 4 episodes!

Sure, a lot of animated reboots have been mostly been targeted with a lot of flack for either being too childish or too lame, especially when it comes to what these shows are suppose to appeal to. I usually take a look at these shows, no matter how much has changed from what I'm use to. A lot of the time, I enjoy some of these reboots, from those of X-Men, Batman, and Spider-man, and they are really good with most of the stories and with the characters. I don't try to worry too much with the changes in characters. But I do think it only should happen for a character that needs those kind of changes instead of for everyone.

With that said, watching the first two episodes of this show makes me think if you're kid is the kind of kid that mostly likes fart & poop jokes in all of his heroes, then he'll love it. Everyone else who's as old as 10, or knows what a plot is, will more likely get bored of it too quick.

Oh my God!!!

THANK YOU!!!!

I like cartoons and all but I swear that there is nothing more pitiful than a grown man bitching that somebody had the gall to make a superhero cartoon for kids.

I have a five year old nephew and he and his friends loved this show.

Love the show. It's a lot more fun than most Marvel things from the past 20 years. It's like an animated version of What The-?

Ok, so maybe the fart jokes are annoying, and maybe the Wall-E clone is a bit transparent, but how about when they poke fun at Al Gore when Flatman denies that the caps are melting? This show is occassionally very clever, AND it has Jim Parsons in it (one episode only)
