Ben 10: The Commercial Superhero
22 July 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Ben 10 became a great disappointment ever since Alien Force. The graphics have fallen, the dubbing got worse, aliens got confusing, Ben began shouting names, the Omnitrix changed from a curious piece of Alien Tech to a green watch, every alien had green eyes from now on.. Probably what I hated the must was the fact, that Ben's arch enemy Kevin was now his best buddy again, all of a sudden and his geeky, annoying cousin became like his twin sister, who's not a mage, but an alien - This completely eliminated all the fun there was in the original series. I always thought of Kevin as a match for Ben with his absorbing powers.. And that's only the beginning. Ultimate Alien kinda fixed some of the stuff, but was hardly a point over Alien Force. And then Omniverse came. I had my expectations and all of them were crushed, destroyed, blown away even. The graphics are awful, first time I saw Ben I thought I'm looking at some frog-version of him. Glad the green jacket is gone and the clothing got fixed, also Gwen and Kevin look a bit better, but all of the sudden, they left. Why? And why the nerdy, lame alien sidekick, who's probably more skilled fighter than Ben himself. Also, how come Ben became so weak? And since I got to Ben and fighting - His aliens.. Seriously? This has to be a joke. Their powers, their appearance, all of it is lousy, crappy, no wonder you guys lose so easily to anime. This show needs a reboot, something closer to the original series. It's a very powerful story with lots and lots of possibilities, but I think it should stick to what they actually offered in Ben 10. Ever since then the show became more commercial and less enjoyable. I don't even watch it anymore. I saw every episode until the Omniverse came. Now I'm seriously disappointed
