Ben 10 2016 Reboot Episode Review: All Wet
-
@Rexfan1333 She's a little girl with hair that has a mind of its own and she does evil things. That's all we learn about her by the time the episode ends. No, Frightwig is not more interesting in the reboot as she is in the Original Series. They did more with Frightwig in the first Original Series episode she appeared in and she wasn't even the main villain of that episode. Hell, her being a member of the Circus Freak Trio and her partnership with Zombozo already makes Frightwig more interesting in the Original Series than her reboot counterpart.
-
@Tactical-Ochoa Thats Rexfan's opinion Tactical Ochoa. If he thinks Frightwig is more interesting in the reboot than in the original series and/or Omniverse, thats up to him to decide. You make it look like its a fact that Frightwig is less interesting in the reboot. Thats your opinion, not a fact. Just to clear that out.
-
@Tactical-Ochoa I honestly say that because of the Circus Freaks she didn't have much of a character to go on at all, she was just a typical bad guy and they completely forgot about until now, at least the reboot she can be her own character if the creators let her be anyway.
-
@Mortie-10 I'm not stating fact. I'm stating my disagreements. If that's his opinion, fine. I disagree.
@Rexfan1333 And she didn't have much character to go on as well in this episode too. Oh she's more interesting because she's her own villain now and thus has potential? Potential doesn't make characters interesting. It just illustrates how they can be interesting. Frightwig can be interesting in the reboot but right now she's not interesting. We don't know a lot about her and she's just like any other typical villain in this reboot and that's not something that's good to say considering how most, if not all, of the other villains in the reboot are like. You're looking at her potential, which might not even be fulfilled. I'm looking at what we've already seen of her at the moment and right now, she's not an interesting character and villain and she's not more interesting as a villain as her Original Series counterpart.
-
@Tactical-Ochoa I understand, but at least she is her own character and not just some random baddie that just pops up and never seems to have a personality of her own. Seriously this is like the first season and everyone expects it to have a story, it's trying to introduce characters and once they do that, they will get to a actual plot.
-
@Rexfan1333 They introduced story and characters in the first season of the Original Series. Everyone expects a story in the Ben 10 reboot because that's what's supposed to happen. Introducing characters first then a central plot isn't an excuse.
-
@Tactical-Ochoa Things change, a lot of shows start with filler these days like Steven Universe and Ladybug. It's not going to be like OS, this is totally different from that.
-
@Rexfan1333 Yes, things change but change isn't always good. Just because things change doesn't make it ok and acceptable. Also, Steven Universe and Miraculous Ladybug are original shows that were starting out. Ben 10 is a franchise that's been around for over 10 years.
Star Wars went through changes. Doom went through changes. Resident Evil went through changes. Then they went back to what they once originally were before and found major success that way. The Force Awakens went back to the old approach to making Star Wars films and became a major success after what was done to Star Wars through the prequel films. Doom 2016 went back to the fast-paced action approach of the classic Dooms and found major success after Doom 3's attempt of going for slower-paced horror. Resident Evil 7 went back to the formula of the classic games and found major success after the years in which Resident Evil became more action oriented.
Sometimes, the best way to take steps forward is to take a step back. The reboot may be different from the Original Series but that doesn't make it good and the episodes that aired and the reception that the show got proved this.

Personally I just want to see a sequel episode of her with the same scenario that happened to Heather in Total Drama.
-
@Ebomnitrix You mean getting her hair shaved?
-
@Tactical-Ochoa That is your opinion, not fact, I'm cool with Ben 10 trying new things, the sequels did it and I respect it them for doing something new. I honestly don't care for most of those series you mentioned, but they are there own thing and they can do whatever the hell they want for all I care. You pretty much want the original series back, I honestly like the sequel shows more so I'm not too into the OS, but I like the reboot because it is doing something interesting, not everyone is going to like it, but you can't please anyone
-
@Rexfan1333 Coming from a guy that constantly complains and whines about people disliking the Ben 10 reboot, I'm not buying any crap from you. Also, I want the Original Series back? We already have the Original Series so screw off with that load of crap.
-
@Tactical-Ochoa You do WANT the original series back! You are talking about the original series and Hero Generation all the time. Of course you want the original series back. And let Rexfan have his own opinions. As I said before your opinion is not a fact, its an opinion. Just as his opinion.
-
@Mortie-10 And like I said, we already have the Original Series so no, I don't want it back because we already have it. As I also said before, I know that my opinion isn't fact. I'm still going to express my disagreement of his opinion regardless.
-
@Tactical-Ochoa Thats ok.
