Poll Results: What was your favorite 90s comic book cartoon?

With a total of 91 votes here are the results for this month's poll:

1. Batman - 39% (36 votes)
2. X-Men - 25 % (23 votes)
3. Spider-Man - 17% (16 votes)
4. The Tick - 8% (8 votes)
5. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - 6% (6 votes)
6. Superman - 1% (1 vote)
- Iron Man - 1% (1 vote)
8. Incredible Hulk - 0% (0 votes)
- Fantastic Four - 0% (0 votes)

Not to surprising with how the poll went. Though I am a bit surprise that TMNT and the Tick didn't receive more votes. As a kid I always remember how much I enjoyed that old 80s/90s series of TMNT even though it does feel dated now. But the opposite would be the case for The Tick. I have to agree with what Matt Ampersand said and that while I didn't completely get what the Tick was about as a kid though now that I recently had a chance to watch it on Toon Disney, or I guess Disney XD now, and I have to say it is just as good as the top 3 cartoons on the list. Even though it has been over 10 years since it aired The Tick and all of the jokes still feel relevant today.

Now even though I love Batman: The Animated Series and the Batman series that existed in that universe, and I have Batman and Batman Beyond seasons on DVD, I have to say that I did not watch that series as religiously as I did the X-Men and Spider-Man animated series. The reason I actually got into comics was because of the X-Men and Spider-Man series. And I can't wait for the season DVDs of the X-Men series to come out next month.

While The Batman, X-Men Evolution, and Wolverine and the X-Men aren't in the same class as the top three on the list I will say that the Spectacular Spider-Man cartoon is can easily break the top three and when all said in done it will be hard to see which cartoon is the best as I love that new series. I already set my DVR for when the Spectacular Spider-Man premiers on Disney XD and I can't wait to see the second season of that series and for us to get an actual collection of the first season as that is what I am waiting to get not the individual set of DVDs that only have 3 episodes.

Thanks to everyone that voted.

Poll Results: Which movie are you most excited to see in 2009?

1. Watchmen - 39% (41 votes)
2. X-Men Origins: Wolverine - 17% (18 votes)
3. Terminator: Salvation - 11% (12 votes)
4.(tied) Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen - 8% (9 votes)
-Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince - 8% (9 votes)
6. Star Trek - 7% (8 votes)
7. G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra - 2% (3 votes)
8. Dragonball: Evolution - 1% (2 votes)
9. Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li - 0% (1 vote)

Well the poll went pretty much how I thought it would go. 103 votes is a good number to gauge the interest of comic book fans. It is not surprising to see that Watchmen won by such a huge margin since it is the movie that is most talked about among comic fans. Even though I am a excited to see the movie I am interested to see what is left out from the graphic novel since it would take more than a 2 1/2 hour movie to get all the various plot points from the graphic novel. What will be even more interesting to see is how well Watchmen will fair in the box office since it will be heavily relying on word-of-mouth from non-comic book fans. If I had to guess the box office performance for Watchmen it would be about $150-$200 million but it could be less depending on the word-of-mouth advertisement the movie gets.

Also I am not surprised to see that the Chun-Li movie only got one vote. You know a movie is bad when even the movie studio, 20th Century Fox, isn't even confident enough to advertise the movie by its full title. Every ad I have seen for the movie is only calling this Street Fighter and not Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. Even The Legend of Chun-Li part is less than half the size of Street Fighter in the title. It will just be interesting to see how well a Street Fighter movie without Ryu or Ken will actually do.

I am a bit surprised that Transformers and Harry Potter didn't get more votes since I expect those two to be the highest box office performers and the big following those two franchises have. Also it will be interesting to see who wins at the box office between the to giant robot movies (literally) Transformers and Terminator since those are Paramount and Warner Bros. biggest releases.

Overall, even though we seem to have another strong crop of movies I don't see any movie other than Transformers and Harry Potter being monster box office performers especially with how bad of a economic year we are about to go through.
