All I could think while watching it was "This should be in Japanese..." Okay, I know that Last Airbender is heavily inspired by anime, but I think that's the series' downfall, too. I'm sorry, but if you use things that are inspired by a different culture, using them in your culture is still weird. It's the same problem that 'proper' anime translated into different languages has. Some things just sound WEIRD in other languages.
Specifically, one of the clips was the battle between Katara and Hama. Yeah, the bloodbending. I'm sorry, but what was the point of having Katara be at her mercy for about 30 seconds, only for her to say "Your technique won't work on me"? That's asinine, stupid and either a lie (since we saw that her bloodbending DID work on Katara) or it makes the 'hero' look like a dick. You can't pretend to be oooh, poor widdle helpless for a bit and then be the smuggest dick by saying you are immune to that. It ruins any drama.

Overall, it's a good movie I felt, but it has some problems, mainly with the tone and the plot. There are a few script oddities and lines the actors just couldn't deliver without ruining the illusion that their improv-sounding lines weren't really that and it made some scenes awkward. But in general the plot had issues. The characters are fine, no, they are amazing and three dimensional and the theme of the story is great, but the way it gets to show this was a bit unnecessary. It deals with a needleaslyy violent and nasty case that made me uncomfortable and by the end it had left me with a bad taste in my mouth while still making me go "that was a great story", so I think overall I find the movie middling. The end twist is great though, I just wish I could change the crime in the story so it wasn't such a taboo, because this movie is one of those where even if some parts are boring, it still makes you tune in again because it's well paced and the writing has an attitude and a creativity that makes something stand out in every scene.

That's mostly over on tumblr. The reddit side of the fandom is comparatively sane.

It is freaking hilarious. Never a dull moment. Comedy is sharp and quick,and their use of brick jokes is wonderful. Though I did wish that it stayed on the ship for the whole movie.
Also,apparently this is the only Marx Brothers movie where they all portray themselves. Interesting..

It was certainly better than a certain other animated video game adaptation. No, not that one.

I dunno...perhaps after all the recent events, another source of media about xenophobia and war was the last thing I needed.

Summary of Symphogear: Symphogear is an anime series about a girl named Hibiki Tachibana who obtains a magicl "relic" after getting hit with a shard after it's past owner died. She is then joined by 5 other girls who I won't say the names of because spoilers. This anime is a "Musical" I should say. There is a lot of singing involved and it is essential to the plot. Go watch it if you haven't, who knows? Maybe you'll enjoy it.
Spoilers for what I think of episodes 10-11
Now for what I think of The season as a whole (Spoilers of course!)

It's about a space war between a 18th century style Germanic galactic empire and the democratic rebels (who call themselves the Free Planets Alliance). It follows two genius young admirals (Yang Wenli and Reinhard von Lohengramm) as they rise up through the ranks of their respective country's military using their tactical prowess. The battles are a lot more tactical than the ones in other space shows and they mainly involve the different admirals devising attacks and counter-attacks and trying to out manoeuvre each other. It's also about the politics of the two factions (monarchical/aristocratic politics in the empire and democratic politics in the FPA) and no side is objectively good because there are a lot of good and bad people on both sides. It covers themes such as: democracy vs autocracy, the power of the military, corruption/decadence in democracy and the power of the nobility/the abuse of power by the nobility.

Oh man. Imagine watching it on TV 15 years ago when they showed one new episode per week... during the Band of Seven arc, or any sequence of filler episodes. But compared to Naruto or the original DBZ (among other anime), the number of episodes isn't too bad. At least The Final Act moves things along better.

In voice? Or just as characters?

I'm talking about the voice acting. Like, half of the characters seem to have gotten new voices. Some of the others sound like the same VA, but don't sound exactly the same as they did in the original series. Honestly though, I should have expected as much.
