Considering those fellows didn't factor in leap years, i'd say the world was suppose to end a few years ago.

Actually leap years doesnt factor in, as the Mayan calendar is very precise in fact moreso then the Gregorian one we use.

Same with the Hindu calendar

Part of me does hope something happens, with how bad things are right now in the world somethings gotta give.

Rather it be on this predicted day or some other day way later somethings gonna happen.

End of the world? Maybe not

Something big happening? Possibly

Its the possibility that intrigues me, no one can say what will happen or what will not happen.

Paranoia is not in my nature, if something happens I can only say:

Bring it on

Well as someone on the spectrum Twilight does have the rapid fire nature of the disorder (as in explaining a lot of things in rapid pacing) and social awkwardness is a part of the disorder.

Sailor Moon and Powerpuff girls here too, also: As Told by Ginger

THIS COMIC SUCKS!

Oh wait, this isnt Linkaras show nevermind

Again Patrick Stewart as the spirit of harmony to counteract DeLancies Discord

Mark Hamill would be cool, so would Keith David

Official goes to Applejack for me, at least for now.

Fan named may go to Octavia, but I am trying to be fair here.

Here is the way I see it... There is nothing to be left open... its not like Samurai Jack or Pirates of Dark Water where the story will never be complete. So if it ends with this I'm cool, it can be rewatched. Though... I don't see why... this is pretty much a cashcow right now. Would be silly to end it in its infancy.

Yes but other shows like this have been killed in their prime.

Well think of the following options:

1. It's 13 episodes but then they'll announce 13 later for the Springtime (I stick with this option as many series are like this).

Additionally, Hasbro may be considering switching over to a half season format permamently; some distributors sell seperate DVD sets for each half season instead of one set for an entire year's worth of episodes.

I am hoping something like this is the case

It was pretty obvious that it was going to be 13 episodes. I don't know where these rumours of a "second team" working on the second half of the season came from.

Anyway added the information on the front page. For good measure, here's the link to the writer's panel where it was confirmed by the head writer.

Yes but I did hope that it was just a rumor.

Well if this is the final season, lets enjoy it while we can.

So turns out that season 3 is only 13 episodes.

I wonder if this means cancellation?

Oh well it was fun while it lasted.

The element of Tacos

The element of Batman

The element of Surprise

The element of Elements

The element of Cuddles

The element of Mr. T

The element of quantum warp theory

Ehem:

Cast all the roles as explosions, its what Michel Bay does

I saw this over the weekend, and have to say that Nolan is a genius!

I am just so amazed at this movie and the overall master work that is The Dark Knight Trilogy (Eat my butt Lord of the rings) and so I will sum up what I thought of this movie and the other two and because its probably going to be a big block of text full of spoilers so prepare for a big block of text in the following spoiler tag:

Nolans Dark Knight saga practically had me in the first movie, now I didnt know who Nolan was at the time as I didnt see any of his movies.

For me Batman begins is more or less a mixed bag, I like it but it does fall short compared to the latter two movies IMHO.

But I digress, it does make a sturdy enough foundation to build upon a franchise like this.

Begins however does fall short for one very good reason, I called most of its plot out as it deviated little from what I knew about Batmans origin story, but as a comic adaptation it does its job and does it well.

Though the addition of Ra's Al Ghoul and scarecrow did get my attention to be sure as some people dont know much about them outside the comics and or the animated series (which I might have said is where I know Batman best from).

Dark Knight though, different bag of noodles altogether.

The idea of escalation introduced in the first movie is carried through excellently by the late Heath Ledger and his performance as The Joker.

As opposed to dealing with crime bosses and secret organizations Batman is dealing with pure madness ready to tear down everything Batman worked for in Begins.

Everything just clicked in The Dark Knight, the messages of how far things can go before you have a breaking point and the downfall of not one but two heroes.

Each piece of The Dark Knight is a finely crafted piece of clockwork and barely skips a beat, each piece of the movie crafted to make you either feel uncomfortable with the Joker scenes, somber with the Batman/ Bruce Wayne scenes and hopeful but cautious with the Harvey Dent scenes until he becomes Two-Face.

This is the story of the downfall of a hero, his swift plummet from a hero to criminal all due to the workings of a madman.

The plot was very well thought out, asking questions that no other comic based movie would never ask.

The movie is fantastic and was my favorite movie of all time until:

The Dark Knight Rises now seems like an appropriate title, it summarizes all the thoughts of its predecessors and is the most thematically beautiful piece of the whole series and finishes off the series well.

As soon as the movie begins you get a felling that the peace Batman fought for is chipping away, much like Begins it is very somber throughout the first bits of the movie after Banes big debut.

But once Bane starts showing up the themes of panic an anarchy set in TDK, a sense of madness takes over everyone and the fragile peace is shattered.

Batman himself is a reflection of the franchise as a whole, he starts off rather somber but slowly becomes more bold and breaks out.

The whole theme of falling is both represented by Banes defeat of Batman mid movie, once more the Batman falls and has to ovcercome.

The theme of the series was there all along, right from the beginning of Begins where Bruce fell down the well.

The theme of the first movie Why do we fall? So we learn to pick ourselves back up again is the whole theme of the trilogy.

Begins was the outer rim of the well, TDK was Fall into the well, and Rises was his rise from the fall.

This is the main reason why i think this movie beats out Dark Knight for me, not for the movie alone but the whole tying in of themes from the last movies.

Its like a fine web that Nolan has spun for us, or a beautiful painting that takes us by the hand and never lets go.

On its own I will say that Rises is better then Begins but still not up to par with the last movie but as a finality to this incredibly awesome film series it takes the themes of the last two films and comprises them all into one nice and awesome package.

Nolan has my deepest respect as a film maker, I will argue that he is a legitimate artist with what he does as he paints something before you and its up to you to see what he made.

And I was right about Anne Hathaway too being this movies big surprise IMHO, she was not overly catty or slutty as most depictions of Catwoman but she did show that she was a very dynamic actress.

My freak out point was when Banes origin story was twisted into Talia's in this case, blew me away that one.

In any case words cannot express my feelings on this move any farther, it is made of pure awesome and I loved every minute of it.

Well admittedly I do like G1 a whole lot more now then I did seeing as I had little exposure to it.

But outside of G1 and G4 the rest of the franchises in between can eat it for various reasons

Ok

I wasnt trying to be rude or mean or anything mind you, if I came off that way I am sorry.

Just being honest in my opinion

I am kind of getting annoyed with these topics, because its clear there will be more then 13 episodes this seeason.

If they were cancelling it I am sure we would have heard something by now

The tie in to the crystal empire might seem a little forced but we wont know till the eppy is released, after all I do think Cadence worked out for the most part.

Hm, yes... I wasn't thinking about that type of charm, but there's that type too...

Well it is Kirk we are talking about here

True, but she doesn't HAVE to have the charm.

Perhaps, though it does help plus the charm I am talking about is a different kind of charm then the one you are thinking of...

You know, Kirks special talent?

The one if he was a pony and had a cutie mark that would have to be censored?

Yes, that charm

Yeah, she doesnt have Kirks charm to back her up

I wonder if the test that Twilight is going to face is the Kobyashi Maru?

Then again every Captain has to deal with a no win scenario sometime.

Its either that or the Spanish Inquisition as she wasnt expecting this, and as you know:

I would say this movie would be awesome, but it is made by DC, and I am a MARVEL character

Yes but it is Batman, I think you can let it slide.
