While Energon was bland and forgettable (especially with those baffling character choices and horrible dialogue), Beast Machines was depressing and borderline nihilistic. It was very hard for me to get emotionally invested in the characters till the finale, but that was the finale so it didn't really matter.

2. The Simpsons, Family Guy, SpongeBob and The Fairly OddParents should have ended long ago. The Fairly OddParents' cancellation feels like an act of mercy compared to the unlife the other shows are enduring right now. Now that Disney has acquired Fox's assets, it's obvious they will milk The Simpsons and Family Guy for all they are worth, while Nickelodeon is too afraid to end SpongeBob because it will no longer have a major franchise to fall back on when their other shows fail.

3. It's very hard for me to get invested in the Fate franchise because of the massive amount of content and lore to keep track of.

4. Hal Jordan is the best Green Lantern ever.

5. Brandon Routh was a good Superman even though Superman Returns wasn't that good. He had an uphill battle to fight thanks to the constant comparisons to Christopher Reeve but the fact that Superman Returns was a huge love letter to the Christopher Reeve films (the first two, anyway) meant that Routh would have little to chance to shine on his own merits.

6. Tom Holland is a good Spider-Man, I just think that the solo movie based around him wasn't really that good. Spider-Man: Homecoming was okay, but I didn't enjoy it the same way I enjoyed the Andrew Garfield movies or the Tobey Maguire films (the first two, anyway). I think the MCU is trying too hard to get Spider-Man connected to the rest of the Marvel universe, even if that means taking away the independence and agency that has defined Spider-Man for most of his life. I totally agree with number 3, it is kinda why I hate the Fate series as a whole
