eh, Raph has always been dead last IMO as far as the video games go.
Don is always #1 though, as confirmed by the TMNT Splatfest.

Oh no, even here Mikey's a ninjitsu natural prodigy. He's just a little positive ball of love and more interested in art. He don't need no leadership poo poo, even if he could be better than everyone else if he actually tried.

But it does seem like they are deliberately giving the stuff that usually makes Donnie the weaker and younger of the brothers to Leo so he's more of the snarky middle kid that hangs out with Mikey. Which is just loving weird because its Leo - who the poo poo wants to hang out with Leonardo?

If anything Donnie tries the most in Rise of TMNT because he's a soft shelled turtle, so he has to build battle shells to protect himself in a fight and has confidence in his abilities in and out of battle more than usual, it seems.

I'll be happy to be proven wrong. If it ever happens.

The Leo/Mikey and Raph/Don dynamics have needed fleshing out FOREVER though, and I can't figure out why they haven't been for almost 35 years. If the personality shifts help Rise pull that off, I'll be thrilled.

https://twitter.com/Marvel/status/1018993681318100992?s=19


Man, comic con is gonna be loving packed with animation:

Netflix will probably have trailers for She-Ra, Dragon Prince, Voltron S7 and Disenchantment.
Marvel will promote Marvel Rising, Avengers Assemble S4 and what's coming up in Spider-man S2.
DC has Young Justice and probably stuff for Justice League Action
Nick i'm expecting a full trailer for the Zim movie, another one for Rocko (with a release date), more on Rise of the TMNT. I was gonna say another TV Movie would be announced, but this new Rugrats series is probably it.
Disney most likely a date for the next season of Star Vs, maybe a teaser trailer for The Owl House.
CN a trailer and date for the rest of the Steven Universe season we're at, promote the current slate in general, maybe something for Infinity Train and Victor & Valentino.

And next week has a massive theater release of a 2D Traditionally Animated Movie even

2012 series had a fun episode where after having spent most of the show headbutting over April, Don and Casey Jones finally find an interest they can bond over; restoring cars. (Casey also mentions being a fan of anime)

I hope Raph stays the leader. This series has been remade a million times, why not shake things up a little? Go crazy! Leo can go back to being the leader in the next reboot.

All I want out of this is a moment where She Ra has a dark transformation, the designers drop all pretense, and make her look like a blonde Utena.
And one episode featuring a cameo of Skeletor at full fantastic ham if that is not asking too much.

You say this like the other animated shows didn't shake things up compared to the last one. 2003 ramped up the stakes, introduced some serious continuity, and borrowed more heavily from the original comics. 2012 made April and Casey the same age as the turtles, gave at least half the cast new backgrounds and characteristics, and homaged a lot of the previous incarnations.

SlothfulCobra
Mar 27, 2011

It's possible that this is all just to set up a coming of age story for Leo becoming leader. It makes me think a lot of what Transformers Animated did to Optimus Prime, making him some idealistic kid who eventually takes over the Autobot Empire instead of the old man he is in other incarnations.

What I'm most curious about is what the changeup in turtle dynamics will mean for Dan McCoy of the Flophouse.

The new She-Ra looks pretty nice, and definitely leagues better than the original 80s garbage.

No trailer yet, just an announcement that it's happening.

There'll probably be a very slight teaser later this week because Comic Con.


There is a trailer for Season 5 of Avengers, aka "Escape from AA Art Style"

Nothing too particularly striking, but that action scene at the end was pretty interesting. Cheap, but still impressive and dynamic.

Since it'll be airing in Canada on a channel owned by the production studio, I'm assuming this is just another instance of Cartoon Network picking up cheap schedule filler from Canada.
