Waterhaul posted:And to end on the best part. That one's good, but I feel Marvel tries to play up the "This is insane" factor a little too much in their trailer. I prefer the original intro because it's just doing everything you'd expect out of a live-action Spider-Man intro with bad web special effects and wall crawling and a lot of posing, then out of loving nowhere Spider-Man summons a giant robot at the end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPX-FX0KStE

ToastyPotato posted:Why did they cancel Spectacular then? Disney never owned the show, in fact SSM was off the air before Disney even bought Marvel. It got canceled because Sony sold all their animation rights on Marvel characters back to Marvel. However, Sony retained the rights to SSM, and its character designs, storylines, etc, so they got stuck where neither Marvel or Sony could produce it. Additionally, it was got hosed over even before the Marvel/Sony deal by switching networks from the CW to Disney XD in between seasons, which lost it a lot of viewers/ratings (because a lot of people don't even get Disney XD).

I was under the impression that Disney did not own that show fully, prompting its cancellation after Disney got the rights to make a Spider-Man show.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:That reminds me that the studio behind the YJ videogame has said that if the game sells, they're willing to make another one set on what would've been the third season of the show. Problem is, the game loving sucks. The game actually came out? Wow, I thought that would never happen. Too bad, I used to think my favorite part of YJ was that the two seasons were supposed to be bridged by a game that never happened.

ToastyPotato posted:CN absolutely screwed YJ over. As well as JLU and GL. And you know who runs/owns CN? Same people who own DC. Warner Bros. has no idea what to do with any of the things it owns. Looney Tunes, DC, they are just completely in over their heads. Well, CN has pretty traditionally had problems scheduling/airing action cartoons really. Most of their shows, both licensed and original, tend to be comedies, which is why they usually try to lump any action cartoons they have together (when they have action cartoons to even air) in some sort of block to help them get more exposure than they would faring out in the wild plains in between reruns of Johnny Test (ughhhh). Of course, this often leads to hilarious situations like the original CN action block, Toonami, where you had Batman and Superman playing at the same time as a bunch of anime.

Jesus, somebody saaaaaaave meeeee from this show it sounds awful  ."We will follow Bruce Wayne right up until the point where he gets interesting." Jesus, why? I mean, they proved they can do a superhero TV show. Arrow exists. We have the technology. Just make a Batman show if you want a Batman show so bad. Or make a GCPD show if you want a GCPD show. But not Smallville 2.0. Anything but Smallville 2.0  .

ToastyPotato posted:He was barely ever in the DCAU to be fair. But even the DCAU fell victim to the Bat Embargo, didn't it? JLU basically had Batman and no one else from his books for a while, because apparently that would confuse people who watched Batman Begins. No, JLU had a ton of Batman, just no supporting characters or villains of Batman. Also, as far as GL goes, even before John was the GL on JLU, Kyle Rayner was the first Lantern that got introduced on Superman:TAS. They were all about not using Hal Jordan in the DCAU. Y'know, aside from that one fantastic gag in the time travel episode.

ToastyPotato posted:Because the shows would be made by the same company with characters owned by the same company and if they inhabited the same shared universe there would literally be no reason that they couldn't use a given character outside of not feeling like paying the actor to appear on a different show? It would be in their best interest because then you don't have random audience members wondering why two or three different people are playing slightly different versions of the same character at the same time, potentially. No other shows are using Nightwing or Cyborg right now though, and I don't think audiences will have a problem accept that Cyborg is a different guy on TV, unless you're seriously suggesting they actually pay Ray Fisher to play Cyborg in the Titans show as well, which would be silly for the very "confusing" reason you gave. The only real problem is Nightwing being so closely related to Batman, but honestly I don't think it's that much of a big deal. Everyone is making comparisons to the old cartoon, which is silly because it's a cartoon, but also to be expected because it's the only adaptation of the Titans in non-print media. However one thing I think is important in the cartoon is that they used Robin, went for 5 seasons and alluded to Batman like twice. It'll be very different in a live-action show for actual adults because the cartoon also had the distinction/possible advantage of the Titans never having civilian identities. But Nightwing is a character I can see working pretty well outside of Batman. As long as they get across, somehow, that "Hey, Nightwing was Robin now he has a new name", everybody will know who he is and how he's been trained and then they never have to mention Batman at all. I think you're suggesting WB should try to start some sort of cohesive shared TV continuity, which might be nice I guess? But ultimately what would be the point, to make it like actual comics where characters from a more popular show can pop in to boost another show's ratings? As long as the shows don't start trying to make versions of each others' characters, like Arrow or Flash introducing their own Cyborg, then I think viewers will be just fine.

Entire show is Uncle Ben in 'Nam with his war buddy Frank Castle. They bond as Ben talks about his new wife and Castle talks of his newborn son back home. But over the course of the season, Castle is showing signs of delighting in war far too much. In the season/series-once-it-gets-canceled finale, Ben tries to stop Frank from calling in an airstrike on a village some Vietcong soldiers are hiding in, telling him "With great power comes great responsibility" e: But seriously, why the hell would you make a Superman prequel?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but DC's doing the dumb thing where Batman and Superman can't show up in a show because they're in a movie and the fragile populace just CANNOT COMPREHEND two actors being Batman at the same time, aren't they? So are they just gonna have Nightwing and Oracle tiptoe around their relation to Batman? That'll be interesting/fun to watch. e: muscles like this? posted:Who wants to bet that Starfire will not be orange. Who wants to bet the sky is blue.

ToastyPotato posted:Is Ted Kord even in the comics? I feel like there was a brief Kord cameo in one of the Justice League comics, but I don't know if that spun off into anything. I actually am not sure what happened to Blue Beetle post New52. It could have been that they didn't want to completely and utterly different Blue Beetles out there or something. Ted is currently guest-starring (or co-starring, who knows how long he'll be appearing) in Justice League 3000 along with Booster Gold, so yeah he's in comics. Oh god that's so bad. It looks like Palmer Technologies went bankrupt before Ray could get all the parts together and he just had to strap all the pieces of armor he had together onto some spandex and hope for the best. And then there's the helmet, oh god, that visor is just miserable. I get that the CW isn't Marvel Studios and can't put together an Iron Man suit, but wow I just really don't think it works; I wasn't a fan of Laurel's new Canary uniform, but that is 1000x better than this.

Gaz-L posted:I can't disagree enough... barring the visor, which yeah, could be better. Like, on a CW budget, that suit looks really solid, especially considering Routh and the stuntguys will have to, y'know, move around in it. (The Iron Man suit in the movies is about 70% CG for that reason, otherwise RDJ would be completely immobile). And the Canary outfit is a nice compromise between a classic look, and something practical and non-objectifying. (I have a soft spot for the fishnets, but mostly because, like the Power Girl boob window, all the attempts to 'fix' it are usually either ugly, or offensively bland.) Well yeah, I know it's not gonna be Iron Man, but... I don't know, I guess I just have an idea in my head about what power armor should be and that is nowhere near it. It just doesn't seem... armor-y enough. (I mean, he's got great big portions that are unarmored even though I guess they could just say the red undersuit is Bullshit-anium that is super-strong) I guess I'm really just letting the lack of a proper helmet get to me. I mean, I know it's easier (and way cheaper) to film Routh's actual face than to do an Iron Man-style in-helmet shot of Routh with HUDs and poo poo, but man... it's armor, man, wear a drat helmet. Oh and I should've phrased my Canary complaint better. I actually really am okay with the new outfit except that blonde wig looks awful on Laurel.
