The last time Batman did a CG show it barely lasted a season (and it not help coming after the stellar Batman brave and the bold)

I didn't mesh with Brave and the Bold as much as everyone else seems to (It's more hit or miss for me - good episodes and episodes I got bored with), but it really is a loving tough act to follow.

Is there even any posts of anyone actually freaking out about invisible man? Every tweet posted about this seems to be some second hand someone saying they saw someone else somewhere else freaking out. It's not like anyone has actually posted any actual examples of anyone seeming very upset at all. This feels like a made up issue.

The internet is so big that at any time someone can say "People are freaking out over (really minor thing)!" and it will be true, somewhere.

My favorite little jummy olsen fact is that he was originally a Dennis the menace style bad boy and you as a reader were supposed to understand him wearing a bowtie as some super subversive move where everyone else was wearing suits and ties.

But then like years later when a new generation of writers came they sort of did "who's this nerd with a bowtie" and reframed him as a huge nerd-linger because all the significance of his cloths had shifted from him being a cool badass to a huge dweeb.

I watched Yellow Submarine again recently and it’s still quite a remarkable movie. Dry British wordplay and dad jokes, extremely trippy animation, great music obviously, and the pacing is a breeze. Still supremely enjoyable.

What’s the animation nerd’s consensus on the available Yellow Submarine blu rays? I’m thinking about upgrading my ancient non-anamorphic dvd.

This is Jake's show! :3:

Jake Wyatt was our storyboard director on Florpus and my AD on Pantheon. He just left to do this and he's been working on it as long as I've known him. Sent him chocolate chip cookies and rye bread as a congratulations since we couldn't do it in person. And this was about 3 weeks ago, so they've just started. He's got his storyboard team in mind, but they hadn't even gotten PAs last we talked.

I've gotten the pitch version from him and y'all in for a real treat. It's so cool to see it pop up here!

I'm kind of shocked that there hasn't been a 3D animated Land Before Time movie yet. Now that I've thought of it, it'll either be greenlighted soon, or is already in production. Perhaps you, or someone you know might even be working on it and aren't at liberty to say.

Kinda wanna rewatch the original.

I would agree, but I wouldn't be surprised if studios are keeping away from dinos after The Good Dinosaur wasn't the hottest poo poo.

The last Land Before Time movie was 2016 so that works out.

Remember Disney's Dinosaur?

Anyway I think the problem is you don't really have Amblin/Bluth style animated films, aside from stuff out of Laika. If it's not Disney/Pixar it's DreamWorks stuff with too hip settings, stunt casting, and no confidence in the concept.

The Good Dinosaur was a surprise flop from Pixar to be sure, but historically an aberration. Kids have and will always love dinos. Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom came out some time afterwards and while not necessarily a kids movie, I remember a large amount of kids at my opening night screening. And there's that Netflix cartoon.

But I don't really think they'd put a new Land Before Time in theaters, even with new fancy 3D animation. Unless it was a remake.

Edit: oh yeah, Disney's Dinosaur. I remember that looking pretty dull. I should pop that on D+ to watch it from a historical perspective.

if they did the dinosaurs like bill watterson drew dinosaurs in C&H that'd be rad (even radder if they were riding fighter jets, like nature intended) but the good dinosaur's art direction rendering dinosaurs as play-doh was, absolutely not rad

Why wouldn't she?

Really says something about how even in the Silver Age, Lois could have her own book when so many writers since can barely carry a scene with her. Everyone forgets she was originally written as a goddamn spitfire who didn't take poo poo from anyone up to and especially Superman.

Were there any decent Land Before Time movies besides the first one (that's the only one I ever watched)? Apparently there was a cartoon at one point as well.

I see no reason they wouldn't just do a different animated dinosaur thing, it's easy enough. But then again, 14 Land Before Time movies already exist somehow, so :shrug:

What a weird coincidence. The Land Before Time came up on the Netflix recommend selection this morning and it was my 2 year old's first time to see it. He loved it.

As for a live action, Walking With Dinosaurs is as close as you're going to get.

I’ve never watched any of the sequels, but I watched a Jenny Nicholson review video of every Land Before Time movie and according to her there are two or three that were better than the original (but most of them were really bad).

How did that movie get so many DTV sequels anyway (which I think may be the most any film has ever gotten)? Was the original like super popular at the time or something?

Also I assume Don Bluth had nothing to do with any of them except for the original.

It really was that popular, it only made $5mil less than Oliver and Company on release, and the sequels being pretty inoffensive fair filled with dinosaurs makes pretty good distractions for kids.

And you're right the only sequel Don Bluth had anything to do with is Bartok the Magnificent.

Maybe Star Wars if you count the Ewok movies and the Clone Wars pilot.

If you count movies based on TV shows there’s probably a lot more (I think Pokemon is up there by this point as well, and of course the Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, Ultraman, and Precure franchises that have at least a movie or two every year) but I was specifically talking about things that were originally movies to begin with.

IIRC: it was right when VHS copies of films had gotten cheap enough to be an impulse buy. The original Land Before Time was (re?) released on VHS one summer and became a huge hit. Universal thought, "why don't we push out another one of these and have a huge hit again?"
