Dunno about TV shows -- all the standard kid stuff in the 80s, I guess. I was super big into "The Hardy Boys" for a while in terms of books.
-
I don't follow any sports, but basketball was the one I played semi-seriously as a kid, and still enjoy playing it from time to time. Don't mind smacking a tennis ball around, either.
-
No special plans. Just good, solid, engaging content. Want to stay away from any more self-congratulatory content like 100 and 200. Not necessary at this point.
-
Eventually. Don't need it right away. Got plenty to play for now on prior systems. Keep telling myself I will wait for the inevitable hardware revision for both it and (especially) the 3DS.
-
Absolutely Utena. Fantastic. Most of the rest is proxy by way of the wife. Hana Yori Dango for sure, but I liked the J-Drama more than the anime. I guess Sailormoon...? Madoka Magica was also pretty fantastic, but that's almost something like "meta-shoujo".
-
I certainly *LIKE* a few animated movies, but I'm not sure there are any that I go bonkers over. My favorite Disney movie is probably Aladdin. I enjoyed The Iron Giant. The first Futurama movie was amazingly great, and the only good one of the four.

Where are you from that you got "Part Four" with the Kikuchi soundtrack? We have it confirmed that Madman switched over to Kikuchi for the Australian (& New Zealand) release, but always conflicting stuff about the FUNimation North American release -- never heard anything about it being different from DVD to Blu-ray, though. They officially switched over for "Part Five" for both formats after the scandal broke (and it was delayed for quite some time).

I both see a need and don't see a need. We (sadly) STILL need more processing power for things like steady frame rates (I except no excuses for anything below a locked 60 fps these days), but a lot of that you can chock up to lackluster programming or trying to toss too many things at the gamer at once.
Then again, do we really need them? Who actually wants them? I feel like more so than any other time in my life with any other generation of games, I have soooooooo many great ones to still catch up on that I'm not really eager to toss a new generation on top of that.
I'm sorta on the side that the next generation isn't going to be spectacularly expensive, though. More of an incremental upgrade than anything we've seen before. They'll be taking a page from Nintendo on this one. Economy's still somewhat garbage, the $600 console is still in folks' memory... you can look at the Vita's $249/$299 launch that even Sony is willing to be humble about the launch price and take a hit, never mind Nintendo's unprecedented $249 -> $169 3DS price drop.
So in that respect, if it's just going to be an incremental upgrade, do I even want it right now, or would I just rather wait even more than one-to-two years for a fully-realized overhaul of technology? And is there even that technology on the horizon to be excited for?
Long story short, I'm still playing PS2 and DS games. I'm good :P. -
Yeah, I'm still gonna put it up. I just got in Level 1.2 which I will wrap into it, so it's going to be more of a strange post-mortem rather than a typical review... but I think it's still worth having up at some point. Definitely not a major rush anymore, though.

All of the podcast episodes are "for the week of ______". The week starts on a Sunday, so that's how I date them.
For a long time I always had the episodes come out that same Sunday, but it got to be a bit much, especially if we couldn't arrange to record until late Saturday or that same Sunday. Sometimes I need a weekend, too :). As a part of the big poll that we conducted about the show a long while back (which is actually still linked off the home page), it turned over that the OVERWHELMING majority of the responding audience didn't care if it concretely came out on a Sunday or not, and would just listen to it as soon as it was available with no problem. I took that to heart (thank you, everyone!) and try to make it available no later than late Monday afternoons. That way it's still pretty much as timely as can be "for the week of _____", but also gives me a little breathing room.
As for when it "shows up on iTunes", do you mean in the iTunes Store or in your podcast downloads if you're subscribed to it? If you're subscribed, it will download automatically as soon as it's available and as soon as it checks for new episodes. I think the old default used to be "every two days", but that's pretty insane -- I changed mine to check for new shows every hour :P. As for the iTunes Store listing, that updates usually once per day when it manually checks for new episodes of shows, so if it happens to just miss when a new one is added, it might not show up for an extra day.
No real thoughts on the whole 4Kids thing. Probably would have been good in the short run for the franchise, but not in the long run. Things worked out pretty well, I'd say. -

I wouldn't say I am a "fan" but I have always enjoyed what little I have seen... which is really just scattered TNG episodes as a kid, a couple of the original series, maybe one or two of DS9, and that new movie that recently came out.
-
Watched the first couple episodes when it was first airing, but that's it. Would love to go back and check it out. Interested in seeing how that upcoming non-Illumitoon(?) set will turn out.
-
Didn't play it. The wife did. I only casually popped in to watch every so often.
-
You shouldn't need to ask this question :). We don't have a shred of support for any part of it.
-
I've only seen a couple minutes of an episode. Seems like I would enjoy it.
-
Not necessarily. It can also end up being a turn-off, too, if you either binge and simply overindulge to the point of grossness, or get too much bullshit from a community.
There are lots or things I love that I don't read any other websites about. It really depends how far deep down the rabbit hole you want to go, and what your bullshit barometer is like. -
I don't keep a master spreadsheet or anything, no. Most of it is all kept in appropriate spots (the DVDs/Blu-rays are on the giant spinny-rack with the rest of the anime; the manga and other books are on the DB-centric bookshelf in my loft next to the main computer; most of the display-worthy figures are on a series of shelves in the basement; video games are with the video games). Other stuff (crappy figures, random trinkets) are in boxes in the basement storage areas.
