The Lists Thread

This thread is for lists, of 5, 10, 20, or any number really. This should be really fun if we stay on track.

Rules:
1. Lists can be any size
2. Lists can be about anything
3. If something is very similar to something else, or is a second season/sequel of something, just put it in honorable mention with an explanation.
4. If a list sparks an arguement, thats ok, the thread can be for that too
5. Ties are legal
6. MODS CANNOT CHANGE ANOTHER MOD'S LIST FOR ANY REASON.
7. You can't say "In no order" It's called alist for a reason
I'll add more as they become needed.

Edited: I tied Cowboy Bebop with Evangelion because I like Bebop better and yet the impact that Eva had on anime is so mind blowing that I can't have it at less than what it is, I removed the bit about minus eps 25 & 26 of Evangelion, mostly because I understand why they were there better now, moved NHK down and Busters up because NHK had an awesome but somehow dissatisfying end and the end of gunbuster/diebuster is argueably THE best end ever in an anime, removed numbers from lists so i can add and subtract as I see fit

RE: Brandon

Bandai makes me angry b/c they get Vancouver to do their dubs, and their dubs are BAD. I've never heard of Genco/Khara.

Also, yes, they should be separated, but I put them together so I could fit another one in there. A very different list than i expected, but I love all of those.


RE: Nathan

If you're gonna do actors, please use first names/numbers. Now, why is Mark Hammil so high on the list? Yeah, I know, it's Luke, but his career took a nosedive and he never really went anywhere. Harrison Ford makes bad movies now.

Also, LOL@ favorite 3 animes

I tell you about Genco everytime you mention Genshiken/Azumanaga and you happen to like Gonzo and they get Bang Zoom to do their dubs, and they fucking suck.
Studio Khara is the studio Anno founded to work on Rebuild of Evangelion with Gainax.

1. no you don't, maybe you have, but not everytime

2. Gonzo makes a lot of really great shows, and I have never actually had to watch any of them in dubs (other than the ones in english) so yeah I guess that is true.

just going with the "star wars nerd" theme, yea, Hamill got pwnt.

had to edit mine AGAIN to accomodate how much CB is win

edited my list again, seriously, does nobody have anything to say about ANY of those?

Hamill got owned, yes. But I think Ford got his share too, I mean yeah, he still gets work, but its mostly bad now. At least when Hamill was out he was out, the last thing I saw him in was Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and that was the moment when he lost all dignity in my mind.

I'm sure kyle would.. But he can't see this...

please to move this thread somewhere where everyone can see it?

Done.

Kewl, thankies

Moved azumanga up because of the ending

Well this threads placement is different.

yeah, I asked brandon to move it so we could get some more traffic.

Well that failed

Didn't it? Our whole forum didn't get posted in for about a week, at one point I was so pissed at everyone but Brandon that I considered deleting my account.

well it seems to be just me and you now, so wassup?

Brandon is busy with various shit, and he really needs you to get him windows back soon.

Tell me about it, do either one of you know how hard it is to nevigate your computer without windows explorer? I feel like I'm running DOS with pictures.

I updated my list, I <3 Watership Down.

I wasn't to crazy about it actually.

I find that hard to believe because it was awesome. It was probably because you were too young and you hadn't read the book.
