IRQ posted:The second one really wasn't so bad. I mean they're no Pixar or How to Train Your Dragon (Dreamworks CAN make a good movie!), but not awful. Yeah, I think the main reason people poo poo on most Dreamworks cartoons is because they're just not as good as Pixar's overall. That said, I've liked most of the stuff I've seen from them to varying degrees. The only one I flat out disliked was Bee Movie. A real waste of Jerry Seinfeld. Still need to see How to Train Your Dragon myself, but it's gonna be hard in my eyes for Dreamworks to top Kung Fu Panda.

mobo85 posted:Two voices, actually- voice actor extraordinare Frank Welker is still voicing Fred and is also Scooby's voice as he has been for the past few years. Has anyone else EVER voiced Fred? Welker's been doing it for 40 years now. Even when an early episode of Family Guy did a Scooby-Doo cutaway they had him there. It's nuts. And no, Freddie Prinze Jr. doesn't count.

Cliff Racer posted:Thats odd, I thought I'd seen relatively well done 2-d character models for that show. I certainly hope that we don't have the CGI craze spread from movies to 30 minute cartoons. You did. They even show them at the end of that commercial. Those CG shorts are going to be a separate segment. And some theatrical shorts are proving that CG Looney Tunes actually can look really good: http://www.cartoonbrew.com/cgi/looney-tunes-exclusive-clip-coyote-falls.html And yes, that's the site the SA "Animation Website" articles were poking fun at. They're notoriously biased in some aspects.

Y-Hat posted:Edit: I didn't notice the animation for the new Looney Tunes show, but from what I've heard that most recent Looney Tunes movie was quite good, so I wouldn't give up hope on it. Back In Action actually WAS really good, partly because Joe Dante directed it and had been a huge Looney Tunes fan forever, to the point of being friends with Chuck Jones and having him cameo in Gremlins. Sad that I was the only person I knew to see it and Space Jam was the hit instead.

haveblue posted:The Titan is a cel-shaded 3D model put in a 2D world. Same trick as the spaceships in Clone Wars. Aside from scenes in Futurama when the ships are flying around without any characters, cel-shaded CGI is pretty much universally poo poo on TV cartoons for some reason. We watched an episode of Justice League in class a while back and a really, REALLY awful-looking and out of place chopper popped up and literally drew groans and laughter. Family Guy also has a hard-on for using it for literally every vehicle as well. Honestly, the only time this technique was really pulled off well as far as I know was Iron Giant. A lot of people would probably never guess the giant was entirely CG unless you told them.

ReBoot's good, but The Raccoons really isn't as good as you might remember it. I watched some of those specials a year or so ago remembering renting them as a kid and they were really terrible.

Tartarus Sauce posted:OOOH, and that explains Monster Buster Club, which makes Johnny Test look like Masterpiece Theatre. Funny, I thought the early episodes of Ed, Edd n Eddy were pretty awful, and didn't get into the show until it had been going for a while. It really found its legs, though. I agree that airing Reboot again would be neat, but that Redwall cartoon pissed me off as a kid- I was a big fan of the books and so many things were toned down or changed for the worse.

Is that the one where Buttercup keeps knocking out people's teeth? It's a good one, but I can't remember anything about it I'd consider sophisticated.

readingatwork posted:On that note did Danny Phantom actually get a proper ending? I just caught a couple of episodes and it actually looks like they have something of an interesting story going on. I believe it did, though it was cancelled before the crew had hoped for so they kind of had to rush the plot arcs for the last season.

Macaluso posted:Somewhat related: I really wish that AbraCatastrophe had been a theatrical movie instead of just a TV movie. I always wanted to see the Fairly Oddparents on the big screen, and AbraCatastrophe just seemed like it was meant for theaters with how grand it was. I mean, there final battle with Crocker, and the Timmy finally revealing his fairies to his parents. But hey, I also thought Dexter's Ego Trip should have been a theatrical movie too. Fun fact: Butch Hartman had a script for a theatrical FOP movie written up years ago and it almost started production, but Nickelodeon/Viacom had some executive changes and the new people canned the project. I kind of wish they would let him release the script or something. (I felt the same way as you about those two movies, also.)

mobo85 posted:Steve Hillenberg and a lot of the original writing staff (who were also Rocko veterans) did leave the show either immediately after the feature or sometime afterward. I think SpongeBob's problem is the same as The Simpsons's- it's been on the air for so long and all the original staff is long gone, not that it has any signs of leaving anytime soon. What's Hillenberg been up to since, anyway? It's been like half a decade since the movie came about and I haven't heard anything about him since.

ElNarez posted:Not as long as Family Guy is on the air I'm afraid. Let me present Exhibit A, from last Sunday's season premiere. MAD has the merits of using mildly relevant material, doing something creative with said material and acknowledging that these memes are pretty stupid. Clip's down. Can someone describe it? Family Guy has been garbage to me ever since it got resurrected, and seeing or hearing about the moronic poo poo it pulls is both infuriating and fascinating.

Or the one where he does some detective work for Suzy: Suzy: If you keep at it, I'll double your salary! Johnny: You're not paying me anything. Suzy: Then I'll triple it! Johnny: .......Done!

I read somewhere that the reason behind that show not getting past the pilot stage was actually because the creator was having a union dispute of some kind with Nickelodeon, so he got the boot and any plans for a series were shelved.

So the creators of Wakfu are finally attempting to give the first season an English dub via Kickstarter. Is that show any good? I've heard at the very least that the animation looks incredible by TV standards, but have never sat down and watched it.
