this movie was made some years ago, right? its not a new one
do they beep beep like a sheep?
Who kills their protagonist before the 50% mark? Only a deranged madman would do so, and to replace him with a sad clone is adding insult to injury. John deserved better.
>called peter x mj anti-marvel and yet this is okay
Bobbi's been turned to shit for a while now. At least we still have Black Canary.
>Ask me about my anti-Peter x MJ agenda.
It's pretty obvious Slott only shits on Peter x MJ to keep his job.
Since we can apparently keep these up.

Watching the first episode of the new Wacky Races show has really given me a new appreciation for the Wack Races Forever pilot.
Why couldn't we have gotten that instead of the garbage they just came out with?
okay my brain is full of questions that all demand answers

Go right ahead.

Gotta link to the new show?
ICv2 has its annual sit down with DC co-publishers Jim Lee and Dan DiDio and Kremlinologists will want to pour over every paragraph. In part 1, “DiLeeo” analyze the overall 13% drop in GN sales and tease their two upcoming graphic novel lines. DiDio:
>We see a little more leveling that’s going on here. We were hoping the “Rebirth” trades would be a little more robust, but they are running extraordinarily strong, a little bit short of what the “New 52” trades did when we first launched with those.
>Overall, our trade sales are where we expect them to be. You’re right, the breakout of DC Super Hero Girls is exciting for us because that’s an initiative that we want to follow up on. Next year, we’re going to be looking to go more aggressively in the original graphic novel business, both for the young adults and for a more mature audience.
Lee also points out that DC’s backlist is primarily powered by the 80s backlist, and it’s time to get back to that thinking:
>Similarly, we have looked at a different segment of the audience. A lot of our best‑selling backlist were books produced in the 80s. These are done by high‑end creators, typically out of continuity, featuring our most iconic characters in stories that have beginnings and ends and have very different kinds of formats and coloring approaches.
>It allows us to tap into the creators that don’t have the capability of doing a monthly book or don’t want to do a monthly book that’s tied into continuity, and have to play within those parameters. We feel that there’s a real opportunity to produce these high‑end, prestige material books featuring high‑end creators. That’s something that we are also actively exploring.
>>94902618
In Part 2 the co-pubs look at changing demographics, and Lee even hazards a guess:
>What is the current demographic of the audience reading DC across channels compared to what it was five years ago?
>Didio: It’s interesting. It’s shifted a bit. We have seen an influx of female readers. We had a discussion with some of our sellers, like Barnes & Noble and our Random House reps, and we’re seeing a larger infusion of female readers in the bookstore markets. We’re seeing some of it in the direct market, but I think we’re seeing a better growth with graphic novels with female readership. DC Super Hero Girls, naturally, is off the charts for that, as well.
>Lee: We have information from our digital sales, for example. We will have some titles -‑ and I want to say it was Smallville ‑- that track as high as 40% female, or at least the people that were purchasing the content through their accounts.
>I have information, my own anecdotal information like my Instagram account — 270,000 followers. I don’t know how of many of those actually read comic books, but they break down male/female, and that’s about 85/15.
>If I had to hazard a guess, I feel very confident that that number [the percentage of female readers of DC] is between 15 and 40%.
>Obviously that’s a huge 25% range, but also in line with Brett Schenker’s FB analysis that’s we’ve run here many times.
>Also discussed: the relative success of Wonder Woman trades after the movie. The co-pubs point out that even if it wasn’t as big a jump as The Killing Joke, which surged as the Suicide Squad movie was coming out even though it had nothing to do with it, the jump was still a jump, even if relative. Preacher and Flash have also seen jumps based on TV exposure.
>As a long time Kremlinologist, one of the biggest shifts I see in all this is DiDio’s acceptance of the graphic novel format. A few years back, when the Earth One gn line was announced, the format bounced back and forth because DiDio wasn’t convinced that GNs were as viable as a periodical launch. The Earth One books have been surprise hits however, and the numbers are pretty undeniable now.
>A question that’s of interest to me only, perhaps: The 80s classics – Killing Joke, Watchmen, Dark Knight, even Arkham Asylum – were driven by protean talents in the flush of youthful creativity who changed everything about the way superhero comics were perceived. Do we have a similar talent pool today? We definitely have some incredibly talented creators but giving them the keys to the car to take Batman on a terrifying joy ride won’t be as easy today. In 1984 DC’s characters were a clannish backwater of Warner Bros. Today they’re the pillar of the company’s brand.
>Also, creators are hampered by having everything available all at once via constant web bombardment. Singular visions are often drowned out by the sheer force of the information era.
>That said, when someone does hit it on the nose for an audience that’s 40 years down the road, it will be incredible.
So there's why the Dark Matter line was created.
Though we haven't heard anything else about it since the Terrifics.
How much money will this Chinese movie make next year?
https://www youtube.com/watch?v=fpm3lx_-9OA
sooo what happens with the chinese 3d animation? it seems they are determined to spend money on it in the recent years
>>94904705
they are butthurt about Kung Fu Panda
>>94904705
If china is going to try to become the world super, then wouldn't it make sense to try and have children think of the country in a good light by making animated movies.
Post animated kino.

Even as a fan of the show, I've gotta say...
No.
Thoughts?

Why is there british holding my flag.
>>94902261
CLIFFHANGER!
>>94902261
Had doubts but it's pretty good,glad they scrapped the 'might all be in authors head' angle pretty fast
Why is he so based?
>>94902253
Because he's cute!
>>94902253
I'm sure somebody will post one of the numerous posts or pages that explain why he's so based, but the long and short of it is that he is a man or honor, duty, and unwavering resolve. He's always been this, and it seems people haven't fucked it up yet. I think the reason is because normies can't into a horse-faced Thor, so they leave Bill out of many stories, meaning only people who like him end up writing him.

Sif/BRB is my only ship, I am not afraid to admit that

do you agree with doctor petersons annalisis on pinocchio?
>>94902163
Probably not. I tend to take things at face value.
>>94902199
but in animation and especially in a disney classic there is intention in every frame since its all carefully and masterfully constructed
a single second of animation can take hours to produce
