Warner is bringing loonatics unleashed back through a crossover with teen titans go.

I don't know how to feel about this to be honest. I can't hate ttg with vitriol anymore just shrugg it off with indifference. But loonatics unleashed? How desperate will this company get for material? Especially since the nostalgia well has dried up. Be it for the 80s the 90s or the 2000s.
 
They better go all-in on the edgy jokes.
I wouldn't be surprised if they did, knowing TTG. One thing I'll always find funny about the show is their attitude of "Just do whatever you want, the target audience is too young to understand what's going on and are only interested in the flashing colors anyway."
 
Cat's voice acting is genetic as hell but otherwise doesn't look too bad. Like fun kids movie that's aiming to be funny.

Also police is allowed to be the good guys again? Neat.
Never read dogman so I can't say if it'll he worth much...but I will say this.

Dogman much like captain underpants is something 2000s DreamWorks should have made in the wake of shrek. Not 2010s/2020s DreamWorks in the wake of things like last wish, kfp, and httyd.


This is more dav pilkey's problem than an animation one, but pilkeys work only worked when it was new at the turn of the millennium. Captain underpants, super diaper baby, and Kung fu cavemen? (A book pilkey says will never be reprinted due to how "culturally insensitive" it is btw) all were made in the last days of that 90s crude gross out craze. A time that has long since passed and that really shows in the new books and even the captain underpants movie they did get made.

Posted by Amy Winfrey a day ago to Instagram/Twitter. Was surprised to see she is still active. If you go through her socials, apparently she is having issues with her art being taken by AI

I swear, this women's life is just being continuously screwed over by everyone.
That's cool and all, but I still like AI Art
 
I found out about this "indie" project's Kickstarter recently, apparently it had a lot of people mocking it online for looking like the sort of junk that look's like it'd end up on HBO Max and other people blubbering about how fans of indie animation don't really like indie animation. It looks like every other "indie" animation project indistinguishable from the sort of corporate-produced animated shitcom, and complete with the terrible pitch being "It's like [x] meets [y] if [z] was [fill in the blank]!", at least it looks like the Kickstarter funding has barely nudged after the "publicity".

This is so painfully generic, so dull and past its time I wonder why the fuck someone would want it animated. I'm not the biggest turd in the toilet bowl, but the pitch clearly doesn't understand what it wants to achieve. It wants to be a show about human fuck-ups but also have heart at the end, starring anxious and unhappy woman paired with womanchild. Uses lingo that I haven't heard in like 6 years. This is so generic they are bound to get sued because someone in LA believes these people stole their pitch bible.
I hope they enjoy the offices with all that money used in write-offs. I sure hope they find schmucks willing to work for them too.
 
Saw this earlier:
The world seems to be coming to an end, teeming with the vestiges of a human presence. Cat is a solitary animal, but as its home is devastated by a great flood, he finds refuge on a boat populated by various species, and will have to team up with them despite their differences. In the lonesome boat sailing through mystical overflowed landscapes, they navigate the challenges and dangers of adapting to this new world.
Looks good, I like the animation and premise. Looking forward to watching it at some point.

Loved that show when I was a kid, RIP Philip.
