Gigantor wasn't that great. It had its moments, but for the most part, whether Japanese or English, it kind of sucked.

Never seen Gigantor, I just remember in Speed when Keanu Reeves called that one big guy Gigantor, and some people thought it was a subtle plug for the show.

Subtle plug? People are really stretching with that one, damn it.
But no, Gigantor is a waste of time, really.

Oh, my god, I hate that theme song. I have this fervent desire to kill whomever wrote that horrendous abomination.

Big O was well worth it. I still watch it on a regular basis. The western nature of the show was vastly more appealing than your run of the mill, Dopey collage student ends up with 5 girls, or Generic shonen anime that's 400+ episodes long.

Try 250 episodes, and it doesn't necessarily have to be harem either. Consider a show like, hmm, Inuyasha. Painfully long and pointless. Big O is well worth a watch. Especially if you're a fan of Steven Jay Blum's voice acting. Man, his voice acting is amazing. |

Yes, I felt Inuyasha dragged on for much, much to long and could have been done in far less episodes. Steven Blum was one of the reasons that made Big O so much fun, can't really think of anyone else doing his voice. |

Holy crap, the man sells himself out. They had him be the voice of Wolverine. Okay, Steven Blum is good and all, but come on, folks. He's not a Wolverine by any stretch of the imagination. War. |

War. In a video game I hope. I don't remember him voicing wolverine in the cartoon. I could be wrong, there was that pathetic add on to the x-men canon called x-men evolution or what not. But I agree, he really is showing up everywhere, even final fantasy. But that just goes to show that there is a need for new voice actors out there on par with Steve's caliber of voice acting. |

They had him be the voice of Wolverine. I'm guessing this was in one of those X-Men games or one of the Marvel related games. While it's true he is in a ton of stuff, it's common practice for the more popular voice actors to get more roles, on both sides of the pacific. Often leaving the lesser know, but just as talented actors to get smaller roles. |

Has anyone ever played Star Wars: Empire at War?
He did at least half the voices in that game.

I imagine that if Steven Blum were to die unexpectedly in a car crash or something, the anime VA industry and the VG voice industry here in the states would collapse. Never mind we have other voice actors like, oh, Brian Drummond, Chris Sabat, Patrick Stewart's done voice work.
Jesus Christ, get some variety!

For some reason, when I tried to use the quote button on Mike's replay, I got a message that told me "The post you are trying to modify or quote does not exist." ??  |
