/co/ Pain Thread 9: Propaganda, Leaks, & an uncertain future for DC. Anonymous 11/19/2024 (Tue) 05:24:53 No. 42136
It's that time again for a new thread! Let's see what we got. Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur is only now catching people's attention, at the end of the cartoon's life, because of a withdrawn episode dealing with... transphobia. DEFINITELY NOT PULLED FROM AIRING BECAUSE OF TRUMP WINNING. Remember when capeshit cartoons were about superheroes instead of gender identity politics? Is Devil Dinosaur even IN this episode?! This is Jack Kirby's legacy, folks. Recently, Hazbin Hotel had a bunch of leaks with an entire episode, reference sheets, & songs all now out in the open. Said leaker shot himself in the foot trying to make people pay for more though. Which only pissed off the people interested & put a target on his back. Then in a positive note for once, The Penguin finished. It's actually a pretty good show BUT not without the typical flaws of these capeshit shows afraid of actually being comic booky. Oswald is nicknamed 'Oz' & he never dons a top hat, has a weaponized umbrella, nor wears a monocle. Other disappointments are Sofia Falcone & Magpie's looks just being completely different indistinct ladies. Sofia is easily the weakest part of the show. Especially when they try to write girl power moments for her. BUT if you enjoyed The Batman movie & or The Sopranos then you should enjoy The Penguin. But on that positive note, we have two uncertain features of James Gunns DCU. Creature Commandos & James Gunn's Superman. One a typical hyper violent totally NOT Suicide Squad derivative featuring vaguely recognizable comic characters.... & Weasel. Possibly taking a generic jab at MAGA voters with these red hat gun toting men getting torn apart. Totally won't instantly age like organic fruit the minute it drops if it's really a political commentary. Then of course Superman... well who knows what to really expect from Superman. It seems like it's going to be more heartfelt BUT also very bloated in a rush to build a universe. With bizarre decisions regarding characters working for Max Lord as corporate heroes & possibly a Bizarro named Ultraman dressed like Doomsday. We'll see more once that supposed finished trailer drops.
>>51836 They absolutely could not leave it be a simple story about two sisters trying to keep their family together, could they? Who needs that when you could have a career? Just as souless as the other remakes. I think we will see the originals hold up while these are forgotten as trashy cash-ins made by ghouls.
>>51946 The remake is garbage. We all expected it would be, but wtf does anon mean by >ending also decanonizes the sequels + TV series The reboot is a new continuity. How can it retroactively impact the canon of the original franchise? Even within the original franchise there were non-canon spinoffs like the chinese and japanese sequel series that most hate because they ditched Lilo in them.
>>51942 I expect this will lead to another Lion King and Mufasa situation. >First remake sees great success as it leeches off the goodwill of the original film >Sequel to the remake is widely derided and sees less than a quarter of the financial return that its predecessor did
>>51967 What the anon was trying to say is that the sequel ideas can't happen because there's no Gantu. They can retcon the experiments in & just have Jumba tasked with catching them. Stitch Has a Glitch could probably easily be done but completely without Nani.... & no Jumba so there's no tech to save Stitch or delay his genetic failing.... Okay nevermind.
>>51976 They can still happen they just wont be anywhere near as satisfying. Jumba and Pleakly can play faux-guardian roles as part of some sort of cosmic parole deal and aid Lilo and Stitch in capturing his escaped experiments ala those shit tier Sony Goosebumps movies from a few years ago. Gantu could come in too. My point is the suits could very much make it happen but it will just be an all around inferior retread of what came before just like this movie was.
>>51985 Jumba is arrested in the end. He's the villain. There's no camaraderie with Pleakley. They won't make it happen. Like I've already said Gantu was probably already in the movie early on but cut out in the final version because they got cheap. They're not putting more effort into the sequel that can't be anything like the animated sequels. Look at Mufasa.
>>44494 >>44527 >"are they comparing Muslims to demons?!” It's the other way around, in that the demons are being compared to Muslims, who the showrunners see as "victims" of "American Imperialism". It's similar to the freakout from a few years back over how an edition of D&D was "racist" for it's description of orcs as being barbaric and underdeveloped, which was compared to the way that thenonwhite cultures used to be described as, [b]not that Blacks and other nonwhite are being compared to orcs.[/b] Be more observant in your assessments of things.

DC & Marvel will finally do another crossover comic together. Clearly an indication of a recession & dying companies. But it's a crossover with Batman & Deadpool. By Zeb Wells & Grant Morrison. So set your expectations low.
>>52024 man this is the one fucking time i would've wanted harley to be in the cover instead of batman
>>52029 Don't give DC more incentive to try & force Harley as their Deadpool.
>>52024 There's a small part of me that takes bitter pride in the fact Quesada and Didio, arrogant as they were, would've died before ever seeing their companies collaborate again.
>>52024 Why are there angels in the background? >>52031 This
>>52031 >>52040 it can be done right
>>52048 Neither will ever let either of these characters be strictly straight again.
Coming this summer, Netflix (and Sony Pictures Animation) presents their newest animated film: goo k-pop demon hunters! The limited frame CGI is now in Korea.

>>52074 I HATE THIS UGLY ASS FUCKING LOW FRAMERATE NIGGER SHIT GARBAGE ANIMATION!

>>52082 The spodervers animation style is a curse in disguise. Dancing Jap idols somehow have more frames than those of the gooklands.

>>52074 hate
>>52074 Isn't the concept itself sort of worn out, the idea of a music idol/group disguising themselves as demon/alien hunters? Though I have to admit the "closest" parallels I can make are Birdy The Mighty: Decode and that one episode of Danny Phantom.

>>52092 The concept of secret monster/demon hunter is but popstars specifically not so much. Because it's a stupid concept. People who watch idols want to watch cute girls being cute. Not grown women acting like teenagers making stupid faces.
>>52100 >People who watch idols want to watch cute girls being cute People watch anime girls for precisely the same reason. >making stupid faces
>>52131 Anime that does stupid faces well uses them for comedic moments accentuating the gag character(s). What is K-Pop Demon Hunters supposed to be? Comedic or cool? Because it's not balancing both.

>>52192 Eventually these uncreative producers and execs are going to run out of franchise tombs to raid.
>>52194 No, they won't. There's centuries of media to pull from. And they could always remake stuff again.
>>52196 Yes but it needs to be something they can gamble a nostalgia buck on so there's a small window in a 20 year cycle you can resurrect a franchise on. So they can run out of stuff to reasonably tomb raid.
>>52197 >but it needs to be something they can gamble a nostalgia buck on so there's a small window in a 20 year cycle you can resurrect a franchise on Do you actually want me to list series released within the past 20-30 years that they could pull from? Here's just two off the top of my head: Sagwa and Get Ed

K.C. Green's Anime Club is gonna have an animated series (with the help of Titmouse) soon. How dated is it gonna be? Is it gonna be another Eltingville Club? https://archive.is/jh4IJ
>>52221 Spoiler woukd be the best case scenario, and I can forsee alot of internet dummies making that comparison, but I wont hold my breath. The fujos that lust after the Eltingville cast will probably eat it up in anycase. >Titmouse Has a single animation house fallen on as hard of times as they have? They went from Metalocalypse, Superjail, and Motorcity to disney xd cartoons, tuca and bertie, and hot wheels commercials. Fucking grim.
>>52223 >>52223 >The fujos that lust after the Eltingville cast will probably eat it up in anycase. Excuse me but WHAT IN THE FUCK AND HOW THE HELL DOES THAT COMIC STILL HAVE A FANBASE LET ALONE ONE WITH FUJOS?!
