Milestone Anniversaries... are we disappointed yet?
This year three series reach milestones in their existences. My Little Pony turns 30, Doctor Who turns 50, and Superman turns 75... are you satisfied yet with what your getting?
My Little Pony
Admit it, the Entertainment Weekly 2nd trailer for Equestria Girls changed your opinion on it didn't it. First off the movie has a purpose now, retrieving the big crown thingy Element of Magic from new antagonist Sunset Shimmer, lest the Elements of Harmony become useless without Twilight' s element. Second it's a Twilight and Spike team up as Spike dog turns out to actually be Spike (Cathy Wesluck), talking and everything. Third it looks like we may get homages to Star Trek IV The Voyage Home with Twilight struggling in a whole new world, in a whole new form... did I mention we get a break from Alicorn Princess Twilight Sparkle? All we need is Vice Principal Luna, David Tennant cameo as the Doctor (he appears at the Fall formal, behind the CMCs), Princess Celestia confronting her former pupil Sunset Shimmer, and Derpy/Ditzy and were all set.
Oh, and the year ends with Season 4 sporting a full season continuing where last season left off. Very nice.
Doctor Who
While the BBC is being slammed with a triple whammy (no Christopher E 9th Doctor or classic Doctors in the 50th Anniversary, then Matt Smith leaving the role at the end of 2013) you can still get some proper 50th Anniversary goodness on both sides of the Atlantic with a big Big Finish event with both classic Doctors and new recasts of the first three Doctors, as well as IDWs Doctor Who Prisoners of Time maxi series.
Could we stand for more, especially from IDW? Sure. Will we get more? Probably not... but you never know. Stay tuned.
Superman
Movie? Check. New batch of Superman titles? Check. Toys and statues and stuff? Check. If anything at least Superman feels fulfilling for its 75th Anniversary. At least there is that.
This won't be the last of this, especially in regards to Equestria Girls which is the first topic coming up... stay tuned.

A Whole New Doctor...
Apparently tinkering on a off season Doctor Who cast this month wasn't such a bad idea after all. On June 1st out of nowhere the BBC suddenly announced that Matt Smith is suddenly up and leaving Doctor Who, his last episode in this year's Christmas Special... what a way to celebrate Christmas. At least with David Tennant they celebrated with the new Doctor but this... and, mind you, when word came of Season 8 in 2014 it was implied that Matt Smith was returning as the Doctor in 2014. He even said that in an interview he gave to an American American newspaper between the announcement of Season 8 and June 1st. Why he suddenly is up and going boggles the mind... and lands new topics in our laps starting with the identity of the 12th Doctor.
The BBC announced right now, according to the latest hot rumor (God I hate rumor) that Season 8 kicks off August 2014 with 12 New episodes of content (no doubt in another split season format). That means unless the present likely suspect, John Hurt aka the alleged 9th Doctor mach one, becomes the 12th then we are presently on Doctor Watch, waiting for clues to the identity of the 12th Doctor.
Possible checkpoints?
The 50th Anniversary Special - November 2013
Think it airs around the Thanksgiving holiday if I remember right, first chance to see if the 12th is mentioned.
Doctor Who : Prisoners of Time #12 - December 2013
I already said on another blog how I am waiting on Issue #9 to see if the whole John Hurt as the true 9th Doctor rumors pan out as the 9th Doctor issue rolls out. Now, as the maxi ends, will it end premiering the 12th Doctor?
Conventional wisdom says no. Yes these days the USE comic is branded with the BBC logo, but considering Series III still has the Ponds as the companions I can't imagine that USE is very up to date on things. I could be wrong but we'll see. At least we now know Series IV will have Clara as the companion, and feature the 12th Doctor as of Series V.
So stay tuned, updates as I pick up new news on this... and how stubborn ponies like the Jamjar take to being proven wrong, and that they are not voicing the 12th Doctor.
