      show was legitimately creepy at times. had the aesthetic sense of a horror movie at times (with the greenish look to a lot of the backgrounds and desaturated colors, and the honestly creepy and ugly aliens) and it helped it stand out. sometimes it even reminded me of some of those ugly-ass 90s Nickelodeon shows, but obviously more superhero-y and actiony. its even more apparent with some of the creepy-gross concept art. that creepy look was eventually dropped it in the sequel shows, which is feel is a bit of a shame. I feel like omniverse brought it back a tiny bit (at least comparatively to alien force and ultimate alien(, but it was obviously not the same.

    I always love the sequences where Ben can’t transform and he has to rely on his own wits. Moments like that make him truly feel like a hero, showing that he doesn’t always need the omnitrix to save the day! This is a kid who was able to defeat a giant mutant hamster by just running around a supermarket on a scooter, for crying out loud!

      You could just say they've known each other since grade sc-

      Lemme rephrase. They've known each other since like kindergarten, but as they get into pre-teen years, they think their friendship was just a shallow immature thing so they grow apart as friends, but by then the parents (or I guess Grandpa) already know each other from the kids having hung out all the time and they can see that growing distance, so Grandpa elects to see if that roadtrip can mend that friendship while Ben's friend's parents make up some BS excuse to ship the kid off on the trip.
      I'm just spitballing ideas here, but there are ways to make that work. Hell, Hey Arnold never needed a real reason why those equally young kids just wandered an entire city with zero problem all the time and it was ironically one of the most grounded cartoons ever made.

However threw a contest of creating your own alien design for a fan webcomic series called 5 years later, it helped me to slowly get into the series. With that first 2 episodes I was hooked on it, and the days where me me and BF Alex would binge threw the whole series all the way up to Ben 10 omniverse.

      I feel like that kinda goes without saying after a while. Like yeah it's annoying to Ben but we know they wanna do something else with a form we didn't think about and it turns out that was the better solution.
      Basically saying the Omnitrix is sentient enough to know exactly what he needs at the time and the silhouette is more a facade of choice or to just show WHAT he can turn into if it so chooses.

    I thought Man of Action was one guy up until I saw this video. I am 24. I remember watching the premier of Ben 10. I watched up until the reboot. I loved the sequel series and how Kevin joins them as a good guy.

    Since this channel has talked about digimon and now it’s talking about Ben 10 here’s a little fun fact: in Kevin’s first appearance he’s voiced by Matt and takuya himself Michael Reisz. Don’t know why he left afterwards but whatever also am I the only one who thinks of flamedramon when I hear Steve blum’s voice coming out of heat blasts mouth

    I've been watching all Ben 10 Series. From the classic to Omniverse and I love all of them.(I didn't watch the Reboot). Alien Force and Ultimate Alien we're the darker and mature Ben 10 which I played it all over again and never get bored,and I like the orchestra theme which is like Superhero Movie. Omniverse feels like Classic mix up with Alien Force which I love it,and the theme really catchy.

    Oh man, Ben 10 was one of my favorite cartoons growing up. I like Alien Force and Ultimate Alien fine, but there's just something about the simplicity of the original series I really like. The dynamic between Ben, Gwen, and Max. The road trip feel. How it manages to blend aliens and sci-fi and magic. It feels like a comic book almost.
