The franchise has accumulated a massive following all the way back in 1989 and has spanned 35 seasons which was an incredible feat for an animated sitcom. Fans have also been begging for a remaster of this beloved project because of its impact and sheer fun, perhaps Sweeney’s comment could fan the flames even hotter.

Despite how awful the reception was for her superhero outing and not even Hideo Kojima could sugarcoat his opinion about the film, the silver lining is that fans were able to gather more important details such as her gaming roots. This is an avenue that is rarely seen with celebrities and a treat for their supporters to hear that they also do everyday things that regular people do making them relatable.
