  • I agree Tom and Sara would treat ben 10 better than cartoonetwork

    @KorseBLI-ND Yeah, they treated Sym Bionic Titan way better than CN ever did.

  • @Rexfan1333 I couldn't agree more. It would be amazing if Ben 10 would move to Toonami.

    @cooljay7 Yeah, MOA should give it some thought if CN screws everything up.

  • I don't know about that. Like with Warners Bros, Toonami is connected with Cartoon Network. In fact, I think Cartoon Network even has control over Toonami. Hell, Cartoon Network even cancelled Toonami back in 2008 due to low ratings and likely even money issues. Now yeah, Adult Swim did revive and bring back Toonami in 2012 but Adult Swim is also a network that is a part of the Turner Broadcasting System or Time Warner, Inc. That means that Adult Swim is also connected to Cartoon Network as well. If Cartoon Network does screw up the Ben 10 reboot and Man of Action manages to get the Ben 10 series back in their hands, I would rather have the series not be with any network that's connected with Cartoon Network. That includes DC and Warners Bros, Adult Swim, and maybe even Toonami.

    @Tactical-Ochoa Yeah, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, and Toonami are all owned by Turner Broadcasting. If Ben 10 was to be moved to Toonami, I would think that the show would have much darker themes then. I think that this would be good for the show. I honestly would be happy if Ben 10 moved to Toonami. Its not like they haven't done it in the past, for example, Samurai Jack was originally on Cartoon Network and now the revival series is going to be on Toonami. Obviously, we can't judge if this move was good or not yet, because Samurai Jack (Season 5) has not premiered yet. Although, i have a feeling that this shift will be good for Samurai Jack, and it would also be good for Ben 10. Imagine a Samurai Jack in the style of some of the current Cartoon Network shows.

    @cooljay7 Last time we got a Ben 10 show with darker and more serious themes, we got Alien Force and Ultimate Alien and I already discussed many, if not all, of the various problems with those two shows and many Ben 10 fans had criticized those two shows for having those darker themes.

    @Tactical-Ochoa yeah, but it would be nice if Toonami made the series with dark episodes (which are my favorite episodes), I'm pretty sure they would allow balance in the show with dark and light like the original series with Alien Force elements. (older characters, character development, and character arks)

    @Rexfan1333 Having darker elements can work for Ben 10 just as long as it's done well. The Original Series has its fair share of doing some really dark moments and having some really dark elements. They were just balanced out well with the lighter moments and elements. Either way, as long as they're done well, darker elements in Ben 10 can work well for the series.

    @Tactical-Ochoa That's what I'm saying.

  • And while we are at it they should get Generator Rex on Toonami as well. Continue it or reboot it.

    @Tactical-Ochoa I honestly liked Alien Force and Ultimate Alien the best.

  • @Tactical-Ochoa I honestly liked Alien Force and Ultimate Alien the best.

    @cooljay7 That's fine. If you like it, that's fine. Alien Force and Ultimate Alien still have many many various problems and flaws to them and I'm just pointing those problems and flaws out.

    @Mortie-10 Here's mine [image: 1619813967998-playlist.png] I believe that it is a really balanced playlist with a range of different aliens, none of whom are too overpowered meaning that they are all of equal importance in my eyes. People may question why I have Rath in there instead of a proper strength alien like Four Arms or Humungousaur for melee combat, but the reason is that the Appolexian transformation would help me be fearless in battle. I'm by nature a quiet person who isn't the first one to put their hand up for a fight and I'd definitely be terrified if I had to engage in hand to hand combat, and Rath's personality would help me overcome that. Or else I could just swap him with Four Arms. Buzzshock and Feedback are also argued to be similar but I think that Feedback is more general when it comes to energy absorption and, well, feedback and is my personal favourite out of all the absorbing aliens. Buzzshock however is more electricity-specific and has powers which Feedback doesn't which makes me have him on my roster. I tried my best not to include any "fusion" aliens like Echo Echo or Jetray (especially not Jetray) as I find that they're too overpowered. Big Chill is the exception here, but only really because I would be worried about using Ghostfreak because of the Ectonourite personality thing. I also tried to include my favourite canon designs of all of them. Granted Pesky Dust's design is a bit unrealistic for me even though I like the idea of the alien, but it's the only one we ever got.

    Why did I even say hyped at all When it's out I will watch it. If it ends up good then great I guess. It really gonna be my first time watching the reboot outside the first few episodes. If the execution of the original characters turns out to be terrible, well honestly I couldn't expect less from them.

    Yeah DC offers content for both children and edgy stuff for adults, I don't see why it can't happen under sister platform from CN. I hope it's UAF or UAF inspired

    So according to this link by MoviePilot.com that lists 10 facts about Ben 10, Joel Silver might not be involved with the Ben 10 live action movie anymore. What we already know is that in 2011, Joel Silver was called in to produce the Ben 10 movie under Warners Bros and Dark Castle Entertainment while in 2012 it was reported that Albert Torres was writing the script. This we already know. What I think we don't know was that Joel Silvers left Warners Bros in 2013 and now works at Universal Studios. Ryan Engle was also brought in to continue working on Torres' script, which I believe means that Torres is no longer working on the Ben 10 movie. MoviePilot states that the Ben 10 movie might be made by either Warners Bros or Universal Studios but I doubt that Universal Studios is going to be working on Ben 10 simply because Ben 10 is owned by Cartoon Network, who is owned by Time Warner and Turner Broadcasting, who also owns Warners Bros and Dark Castle Entertainment. Universal Studios is owned by Comcast and NBCUniversal and not Time Warner and Turner Broadcasting. Cartoon Network is not going to hand this movie to Universal Studios but instead they would hand it to Warners Bros because of this. Therefore, Joel Silver is not involved with the Ben 10 live action movie. Whether or not anyone here knows about this already, I'm posting this here anyways for those who don't know about this. http://moviepilot.com/posts/3900108 Joel Silvers leaves Warners Bros: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/warner-bros-joel-silver-317552 http://news.doddleme.com/news-room/warner-bros-joel-silver-part-ways-after-25-years/ http://flickdirect.com/news/3854/joel-silver-producer-of-the-matrix-leaves-warner-bros/article.ashx Ryan Engle working on the Ben 10 Movie: http://www.slashfilm.com/live-action-ben-10-adaptation-adds-black-list-screenwriter-ryan-engle/
