How evil are you?

Just had to tear myself away from Fox Kids in order to check email and take stupid quizzes before I go to bed. This was not as easy as it sounds - apparently they have taken to showing THE BEST SHOWS IN THE WORLD after 10pm. Mask, Ulysses 31, Jayce And The Wheeled Warriors. SO COOL.

Also I find myself interested in trying to catch the newest incarnation of the Power Rangers - Ninja Storm. Not only are they colour-coded ninjas, being trained by a diminutive hampster, but the fight scenes look to be of reasonably high quality (bullet time!) and the dialogue looks to be hamfisted sub-Buffy nonsense. (Power Ranger: "Uh - hello? One of you, lots of us." Evil: "Oh, please!")Should be good for a giggle, if nothing else.

I too was drawn to the TV the other day to see that Mask, Ulysses 31 and Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors were playing. I sat to to enjoy but soon realised that the only good thing about Mask was the credits. I wandered away but returned for Ulysses and Jayce. Ulysses 31is great. The animation may not be today's standards, the dialogue is poor and the plots are resolved in inexplicable, overly-convenient ways but some of the re-interpretation of Greek Myth into futuristic space-fantasy in really quite good. I actually don't find Nono irritating either; he's kinda cute in a really crap way.
I enjoyed Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors too. The wizard in it is far more impressive than Gandalf in LOTR; he could do with a new tailor though.

Saw the first episode of U31 yesterday. Did you know the whole thing is NoNo's fault? Oh, sure, it was Ulysses' idea to shoot the cyclops in the face, but it was that little robot that actually did the deed. And in retribution for that, the Odyssey was cursed to wander space...

See you tonight!
