@d_r_e: Both. You can have the most ridiculous premise, and still result in amazing games, it's all about how it's done. Case in point, Mario is a plumber who jumps on turtles and collects flowers to throw fire. Ridiculous premise, but it's done so well, it works.

In most cases, redesign is fine. Batman has a new actor every movie and the suit looks different every time. But I can still tell that it's the freaking Batman. The entire premise of this trailer is that the protagonist looks so drastically unlike Dante that the only way to know it's him is to have him come out and…

Action looks cool, but the music doesn't really suit the feel of DMC and Dante... doesn't feel or look like Dante. I feel like Capcom wanted to make a new character, but after the horrific response that Nero got in DMC4, they just designed someone new and slapped Dante's name on him.

@Krakenstein: Until he gave the cigs, I was convinced that they gave King Gorilla AIDS. I thought that was very dark and weird for the show. Lung cancer made it much funnier.

@phantom_K9: I thought that this was VERY old... the theory that "the Venture Brothers" referring to the Monarch and Doctor Venture has been around since I think the first season. The only problem is, it's been speculated so much by the fans, there's no way to have it be a big reveal and be shocking. They would have…

I get the feeling this is going to be Space Ghost-ish... surreal comedy that combines sitcom with talk show style.

@NeoSamurai: SMB Z is barely the same concept. It involves a crossover, but there's at least a token attempt at story and characterization.

@orangewaxlion: If I remember my KH history correctly, Ariel was going to be kidnapped instead of Alice, but they couldn't figure out a plausible way of appearing with the others. She would have to flop around on the ground and crawl on her hands. So they came up with "princess of the heart" and just gave it to Alice.

@ScavengerMonk: Obvious ice powers. Her name is snow white and she has the skin to match... ala Mr. Freeze.

@born28: It definitely wasn't rushed. They included three new gameplay engines (deku, goron, zora) several new items, and a completely new world. In addition, a lot of the side plots like Anju and Kafei's wedding required some very interesting ideas and unusual concepts. The time travel, replaying the same three days…

@Jonn: For you, watching Captain America block a helicopter was the greatest moment in your life. For him, it was Tuesday.

@BlackStones: Definitely looks like a female giving a salute...

@Kyle Fellman: I agree with Foxhack, I think it's more of a cartoony thing than a joke thing.

@BubbleF**kingBuddy: They'll almost certainly nerf all the really top tier characters that make it into 3. One thing we know about Capcom fighters is that they really want a balanced game. See the changes they made to Super SS4.

@Jared Clarke: Well, they are switching out a lot of characters, but Tron was in MvC2 as well.

@BlueLightRosie: Better to take risks, absolutely. Will the writers of the Buffy comics do it? Almost definitely not.

@BlueLightRosie: I think it's very risky to endear new characters in the Buffy-verse to the readers in comic form. Most of the readers of Season 8 are fans of the TV show and not necessarily comic readers. Without an actor's timing and presence, they may feel it's better to rehash old characters that the audience is…

@Megazone33: If you're a supernatural character and you die, you can (and probably will) come back.

@Hyperkulturemia: I'm guessing they didn't want to use the same villain in the comics that they just finished in the final TV season. But yeah, I'm with Burke, probably saved for later.
