Cliff Racer posted:No, they used sonic waves to destroy it, we never got a look at the weapon, or at least I don't remember seeing it. It could easily just be some deus ex bullshit device from one of the Light's humans. Plus there's the fact that Shadowy Robot Voice Guy calls people "Meat".

muscles like this? posted:They also introduced the Anti-Monitor and brought back the Manhunters. So far they haven't really said what was up with the Anti-Monitor so who knows what they're going to do with the backstory, all we know is that he reactivated the Manhunters. With the Anti-Monitor around, they open the door to AM getting trapped in a Black Lantern battery!.

AlternateNu posted:Not to fanboy sperg too much, but just being able to seamlessly tie BB (and even Zeta and Static) into the JLU series was ridiculous. Hell, they even had Mandragora's son first appear in the Beyond episode with the physic organization. Those kinds of call-outs and that kind of plot-weaving in a kid's show are never going to happen in our lifetime again, will it? If the CN DC Nation fiasco is any indication, we'll have to be happy to settle for competently written plot arcs, much less interconnected series.

Lurdiak posted:I think it's really weird that swear words and flipping the bird are still taboo in most comics, considering the 2-page splashes of mutilation and graphic murder. Basically, we can draw, in great detail, the disemboweling of a character but the minute we see a nipple poo poo hits the fan.

TwoPair posted:Man, I wish we could just get a show of all these shorts (and that said show was on later in the day when I'd be conscious to watch it). What A DC Cartoon would be great. They actually did a great job appealing to girls (the Batgirl/Supergirl/WonderGirl shorts were great, as were the designs). But something like that would mean an investment into the series' they develop. And, well, that'd just be retarded wouldn't it.

Lobok posted:Q&As are terrible, always and forever. But if they would begin a screening process, give the panel 10 minutes to finish up their bullshit spiel, then open the floor to the approved folks, things would be a lot smoother. Granted, that won't solve the problem of the panel addressing the audience with pre-canned PRspeak, but at least you'll avoid questions like "What would Han Solo say to Indiana Jones?!"

Lobok posted:I guess it could come up again with Dr. Doom. It wasn't an issue with Iron Man since they were able to do helmet cam. IronCam worked because it also offered a chance to show some of the UI stuff that Stark worked into the suit. So you not only got the acting, you also got some of that character flavor from the technology side.

McSpanky posted:On the DVDs for "Mudslide" they said they didn't reuse Clayface for a long time because they had a hard time coming up with another premise for such a deeply personal issues-driven character, same as Mr. Freeze. But eventually they got over it because he just had too much potential as a powerful physical threat for the heroes to overcome. Gives Clayface a nice way to either salvage or forgo his humanity. And then in the Christmas special he can come back and hit Nightwing with mallet-hands or something.

TwoPair posted:Oh it deserves mad props, I honestly wish a show featuring C-list villains rather than just doing Joker again would succeed, but it was just aggressively mediocre. Like, in a way that made GL's N64 CGI look good. Like, in a way that made peanut-headed The Batman look like a solid design choice. They followed up Brave and the Bold's great design with garbage. They were given BTAS riddler and delivered Gotham Knights' EmoRiddler with a side of The Batman's Marilyn Manson Riddler.

goldenoreos posted:I think for TV they're just going to focus on their live action shows because those are the current sweethearts to the public's eye. Meanwhile they could have had an Adventure Time/Steven Universe-like show with Amethyst and they killed that. Or a Titans Go! Companion with SuperBestestBFFs (whatever that teen Wonder/Super/Bat-Girl short was called) and that died a horrible stillborn death. Or continued Yj/GL. Darkseid doesn't need the AntiLife equation. He can just hire the middle management from Warner Bros and make everything suck balls.

Lurdiak posted:He-man is deep in the 80s, everyone who'd remember him would be far too old to watch cartoons by then. It wasn't a bad show, but big muscly men fighting skeletons wasn't nearly as trendy as 10 year olds with insane hair playing dumb card games. Unfortunately CN didnt want an action cartoon that post-teens could discuss on the net at the time.

To build on the 90s hate, she's the audience surrogate for season One (much how Kitty was in Pryde of the XMen), but she's written in such a way that makes her not entirely interesting to the audience.

Srice posted:I'm confident that it would always have ended with the bad guys talking behind the scenes about how ~everything went exactly as planned~. Timeskip was bad (from a character standpoint). The Light was bad (from a cliche'd "we need the story to head in this direction and will disregard what individual episodes add"). Schedule fuckery was bad (making folks just give up on the series / helping to destroy the little DC block they had going). Looks like it was just a long buildup to showing how the adult JL was mistrusted by the world but their scampy little Jr Justice Pals saved the day so they must truly have surpassed the league and are now the heirs apparent. Also the Superdeadbeat Kal El subplot was really good. I liked that he was skeeved out by Conner.

They did! Chris Kent was in it and it kind of sucked balls!WickedHate posted:It has a pretty decent ending moment but other than that I really can't think of anything good about it. In one corner, The Joker, who was driven mad by one such accident. In the other (and the man that should be our saviour) is a man who had a supremely poo poo day as a child and ended up permanently damaged by it. I mean, technically Joker's point is made. Jim Gordon just gets dragged into it because why the gently caress not. And the story of Job in Gotham is a pretty good hook, ya dig.

quote:for me it's how much of an rear end in a top hat move it is to Batman's surrogate son that's the issue, not the age difference. "Hey I don't mind the creepy age difference, the power imbalance of a mentor loving someone in his care, or the way the actions instantly become something Batman rejects in the film... but why Bats gotta do his Batbro dirty like that"? Thank god for Lego Batman. DC Animated features have been on quite the downturn for a while now. It's like they stopped caring after the Superman film where Spike the Vampire had a BDSM superbot to make him feel alive again.
