the means of publication/production are in the hands of chucklefucks who don't know when they've got something good. Pic very related.

Shit writing.
How the fuck some of the same people who worked on the gem that was Megas shat this out, I'll never know.

Stunning animation though, especially considering the use of Flash.

Because the writing in season 1 was NEVER cliche. Every single moment was unpredictable (outside of in-series gags like that one).

Season 2 went somewhat downhill but still had episodes like that.
>>
It was too loud and spastic, the writing was a major downgrade from the pilot, and Disney felt like it was an unnecessary expense.
>>
>>91182171
its literally the first reply, but >>91182232


however good or bad the show was (i enjoyed it alot personally) the last.... iirc, 8 episodes, were all at a 6am timeslot, premiered one episode a day for a week, after a 4 month hiatus, then never replayed

that doesnt sound like its that terrible, but it broke down to 25% of the show was premiered the same week, and the rest of the 20 episodes were over an 8 month period
>>
>>91183949
avatar s1 premiered over a larger span of time, but it was at least 1 episode a month, actually had reruns, and wasnt given a death slot for premiers

it also was on nick, when nick wasnt as terrible, and motorcity was stuck on disney: emoji edition

Would it have fared better as a Netflix original?

Not with that writing quality.

>>91183307
Disney meddled a lot with it. Titmouse was trying to build something a bit more serious with more world building and more overarcing plots initially, but Disney just wanted an episodic cartoon and they made a whole bunch of other mandates. The only good one was making Mike a goody two-shoes when they originally planned for him to be a bit of a jerk.
The weirdest fucking one was them demanding that the mechanic girl was dropped from the Burners because boys don't want to watch TWO girls on the team.

I don't understand /co/s love for it. I watched a couple episodes and outside the pretty colors it wasn't anything but mediocre.
>>
Teen action show on kids drama network.
>>
>>91189331
Whaddya think of Megas, anon?
>>
>>91189331
>outside the pretty colors
That's what /co/ loves about it. The premise, plot, dialogue, acting, and concepts were mediocre. The cinematography, art direction, character design, and animation were great.

I don't like the show but you have to credit it for its stand-out art and animation.
>>
>>91189120
Disney animated studios animated both the Mickey Mouse shorts, Penn Zero, and the new Ducktails.

Aren't those outsourced?
>>
>>91189373
Megas was good because it was a comedy and satire.

This is like if Megas was meant to be taken seriously.
>>
I remember watching the first episode and thinking the main character was a tool and hoping he'd get caught, so it had that against it.

Neither Nick, Disney nor CN animate their shows inhouse.

Not enough porn of it

>>91191387
This is how Flash is supposed to be used. Look at all the fucking angles. You render one time and you can use it in any scene.

Of course it's cheaper to render just three angles and call it a day.
>>
>>91189331
The threads were amazingly comfy. Some of the staff hung out here.
>>
>>91192268
personally I prefer the regular style desu, the angled one looks kinda off-putting
>>
>>91191387
That's not character *design*. That's character *animation*. Very different things.

Yep. I still don't trust Disney with anything good, not even their own old licenses.

They could have had Motorcity, Tron, Gravity Falls, Wander Over Yonder, Star vs the Forces of Evil, Miraculous Ladybug, Star Wars, Randy Cunningham AND Ducktales running alongside each other on various channels over the last 5+ years. Could any other kids channel compete with that?
>>
>>91192520
Wait, don't they have most of these running now?
>>
>>91192295
kys yourself desu
>>
>>91192295
To be clear, the head turnaround in the GIF looks like shit. The head turnaround in the YouTube video looks great.
>>
>>91192552
IFAIK only Ladybug, Star vs and Star Wars are still running, with reruns of Gravity Falls still hanging around. Ducktales still hasn't premiered yet.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think Motorcity, Tron, Wander and Randy Cunningham reruns have been around for awhile now (with Wander being the most recent disappearance)? And even if they were, I'm talking NEW episodes, not just playing the same old episodes over again.

They actively underfund and sabotage their own shows. That's how insane and destructive they are. I just don't understand these bipolar people get jobs to begin with. Tron was suppose to have a much higher budget to allow for true 2D looking animation.

Who knows what fucked up shit they did to Motorcity behind our backs.

The vehicle designs were so great, especially 9 lives, whiptail and blond thunder. The animation was spectacular and I desperately need the soundtrack.
>>
The fact that Motorcity had Mark effing Hamill voicing a twisted corporate dystopian villain, and HE was overshadowed by Dee "Twisted Sister" Snider's over-the-top car-obsessed rock n' roller villain? That alone should've been enough to keep this show going.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulQtpht27PA

Kane, The Duke, and even Kaia were top-tier villainy.
>>
>>91193120
Isn't the program you animate in meaningless when you're hand drawing everything anyway? At most the 3D animation program should matter together with the exporting problems.
>>
>>91192208
>implying you can ever have enough porn

>>91196725
I didn't recognize Mark Hamill. It didn't sound like him at all IMO.
