Matt Groening's Disenchantment trailer is... not very funny.

So for Voltron season 7: in episode 12 they finally defeated the evil invaders of Earth. But! It's a 13 episode season! So in episode 13, completely gratuitously, without explanation, an evil giant robot just shows up out of the blue, and starts whaling on Voltron. So Earth has to form a second, even bigger giant robot that fights alongside Voltron until Voltron forms a sword and stabs the evil giant robot through the heart.

So awesome.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

This is starting to sound suspiciously Gurren Lagan.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I was wondering if that was going to be any good. I'll have to find time to watch it.

Very derivative of Avatar; not surprising given that it's written by one of the main writers on Avatar.

But mostly it doesn't matter. It's still awesome.

As I expected, Hilda on Netflix is adorable. When it isn't busy being gorgeous.

I foisted it on Matilda upon your recommendation, and she loved it.
