    So, Gargoyles fans, if you haven't heard a new animated DuckTales is returning to television in 2017. It was announced back in February. In that announcement they acknowledged how crucial it was to the history of Disney animation and how treasured it is by our generation. If it is made well and does well, maybe they will bring back some more Disney Afternoon classics? One can hope!

    I actually enjoyed Duck Tales as a kid... but not as much as Gargoyles!

    But I didn't read it on April first! Thats the problem with April Fools Day pranks online. Once anything goes onto the Internet it stays there forever.

    +1 to that. Also the Duck Tales movie was disappointing, though the latest Duck Tales game was quite good. They got all the original voice actors except when the original voice actor died.

    I'm the opposite. Never played the game but saw the movie. It wasn't great but I did like the opening of the film. I believe it involved landing a plane upside down and it seemed really funny at the time...then it kinda went downhill after that.

    Except in his little mid credit scene I had to wait forever for at the end of the Avengers 2
    We sat until the very end to find there was no second scene :(

    Thanos actually has an infinity gauntlet so... I think he wins...

    I actually don't think most Marvel movies are really good either. Only a select few, and I think it's luck.

    Marvel has missed the mark just as often. Like you said Catwomen, Green Lantern, and Jonah Hex. But Marvel isn't without it's failures. Most notably, Ghost Rider, Daredevil, and Electra were all just as awful. I haven't seen, but I'm also told Wolverine and the new Fantastic 4 are just as bad. And how can we forget the 2003 Hulk? To me it seems like they're just luckier right now. And when they do land a good one, they bleed it dry. I like the first Ironman. The second was poor. The 3d Ironman(Avengers) was unwatchable. I left the theater after hulk's predictable comedic Loki "smash" sense. I returned after a few minutes, but I had to take a break or my eyes would have rolled out of my head. And after Ironman's "sacrifice" I just checked out from the Ironman series completely. It took my friend about a year to get me to watch the 4th one(Ironman 3). It wasn't as bad, but I still haven't brought myself to see the new one (Avengers 2). Since my friend moved away, I predict I never will. I have zero desire. Ironman has been ruined for me. I'm not even sure I could bring myself to watch a reboot at this point. Pretty much the same can be said for the X-Men series and Spiderman. They start out good, but end up as a train wreck. But I did enjoy both of their reboots. So I probably would give an ironman reboot a chance.

    DC just gets the second place ribbon because they haven't been as lucky. IMO neither company is doing their comics much justice. But in my opinion DC just hasn't released as many movies. I give DC the first place ribbon for it's most recent spectacular Batman trilogy that ended properly and timely. Bravo! The best comic movie brought to live action film!

    That is true... the infinity gauntlet is much more impressive than a top hat.

    Unless you can pull light Sabres out of you top hat. I mean, Harry Potter can pull swords from hats, why can't you?

    Sadly even lightsabers or swords are no match against the infinity gauntlet. I'm no comic book buff, but from what I have heard, Thanos (using the infinity gauntlet) was able to snap his fingers and instantly wipe out half the life in the universe.

    So what if Thanos has the reality, time, space, soul, power and mind stones, just get a magic light sabre.
