So any likelihood for this getting rebooted is dead right?

>>92890007
Good riddance, I say.

>>92890007
Nah, they're higher than ever.

That being said, if it is being brought back, Ilana and Lance are definitely staying friends due to the mixed reactions Jack and Ashi got.

>>92890235
There was literally 0 chance of them staying friends. (Unlike Jack and Ashi, by the way.)

Isn't this one of those situations where it was written off as a loss for taxes and so the rights for it are tied up in legal redtape and practically impossible to recover?

>>92890395
Pretty sure the red tape is really about the money.

>>92890279
Except for the fact that Genndy had an episode planned for Ilana where she fell in love, with someone who wasn't Lance. The two weren't going to shack together.

>>92890007
Hard to say. The show was written off to the government so the network could recoup its losses, making it impossible for SBT to return without certain changes. If I'm not mistaken, they'd have to change the name of the show, and the original season would not be able to run on any network. However, it could be put onto a service like Netflix or Hulu.

>>92890481
>Except for the fact that Genndy had an episode planned for Ilana where she fell in love, with someone who wasn't Lance.
No source, I call bullshit.
>making it impossible for SBT to return without certain changes
I'm almost certain they could buy it back, but of course the question is if they'd want to spend that much money recovering a failed series.

>>92890538
Not like you have any sources to prove Lance and Ilana were going to get together yourself.

>>92890599
None are needed for that.

>>92890657
Except it is, otherwise you're just assuming things for no reason. Nothing in the show even indicated that the two were interested in one another romantically whatsoever.

>>92890707
You mean besides the massive hints like every other episode?

>>92890743
There weren't any hints at all.

>>92890794
There were hints up to and including them SHARING A ROMANTIC DANCE TOGETHER. If that's not a flashing red beacon for "future relationship", I don't know what is.

Idk why people want it back so bad, it had a average story and the CG animation was fugly and weird.

>>92890921
It had a horrific story, actually. It should never have been permitted on TV, let alone kids' TV.

>>92890862
Prove it then, which episodes had the hints? And the dance was them just deciding to have some fun after they missed the big dance because they had to save the city. Christ mate, are you even trying or just making assumptions for no reason?

>>92890937
How so? The story was an homage to giant robot shows and did it pretty well while throwing in some cheesy teen flick drama that knew not to take itself all that seriously.

>>92890975
see >>92822395

>>92890862
Wtf werent they brothers in the cover up they had? In the end thats how fans saw them, If they hooked up it would just feel weird...

>>92891004
Oh, your autistic shit again. Sorry, but shitty and wrong opinions don't count.

>>92891026
Not to mention they were clearly building something with Lance and that goth chick who could take him on in martial arts.

>>92890061
fpbp

>>92891103
I feel like had the show continued into it's 2nd Season and if they were hinting at romantic aspect, it would have played out like SvTFoE's 2nd Season...... Ilana getting cucked to the Nth degree as Lance develops a closer relationship with that goth chick. Unlike Star, they're not feeling she can act on cause of their cover.

Though I highly doubt it.

>>92890414
Not entirely. The Megas people said they explored the option of buying back the rights and got straight up refused too.

>>92891478
Didn't they get refused by CN itself? Not the government?

>>92891467
Who knows. I like the idea of them not getting together because so few works seem to commit to the "they're just friends" thing all the way through. Often times they have that angle, but then the two pair up after a bunch of "will they/won't they" shit.

>>92891004
That was a funny thread. I never seen that much autism on /co/ before.

>>92891845
The OP was scrapper levels of deluded.

>>92891772
The thing is, cartoons with opposite sex leads are usually written with romantic chemistry in mind. In other words, they're literally made for each other.

>>92891920
Depends on the kind of show, though. Comedic ones usually don't bother with romance given there's little continuity in such shows. Even then, plenty of action cartoons have been made without really getting all that caught up in romance. Mighty Max implied the one girl who occasionally tagged along with Max was into him, but they never made it a serious plot point.

>>92891920
Not always, Wander and Sylvia stayed friends.

The only people who were upset were retard Tumblrites who thought Jack should be gay for absolutely no reason other than that it was what they wanted.

And people with higher standards for writing in general.

Did you pay attention to the dance episode? Ilana made the theme of the homecoming dance based on Galaluna's harvest festival, and at the festival she used to have a dance with her father. At the end of the episode she says "Well dad, we almost had our dance" right before Lance shows up, wearing the exact same hat as her dad, and asks her to dance.

Lance is literally taking the place of Ilana's father during that dance, there is nothing romantic about it.

>>92892928
But Samurai Jack ending was the best ending in all of television history.
Anyone who disagrees with this is either from tumblr or reddit, or possibly both.

>>92892625
To be fair, the relationship with Ashi could have been done better. It was far from perfect.

>>92893471
And before anyone says "Look at his face, he's embarrassed!", Lance was made to be clearly socially inept from being an outcast in the academy and being an overall moody little shit because of his dad seemingly dying. Nigga barely knows how to act around others more than Jack did, who was only socially awkward because he didn't meet enough civilized people who weren't strange looking creatures or waiting to attack him.

>>92890538
It's one of the unproduced scripts. It was a 70s style musical episode where Ilana falls in love.
Granted, that doesn't mean it would be a new recurring character or anything more than a one-off.

https://www.wired.com/2012/10/hotel-transylvania-genndy-tartakovsky/

Shipping is cancer. I'm perfectly content with Lance and Illana staying plutonic and having a siblingy relationship.

Genndy would

1.) Have to want to do it (he doesn't talk about this like he used to with Jack).

2.) Have to convince Adult Swim THEY wanted to do it (Jack was fairly pricey and risky, and a SBT resurrection would definitely be more risky, it was never as well-liked as Jack).

3.) Have to sort out ownership entanglements (whatever those are).

I'm not calling it impossible, but I think it's very unlikely. It'd probably be easier to just take the core ideas and have a "do over" of a sort. But I have no idea what Genndy wants to do next, and he hasn't said.

>>92894675
>Have to want to do it
He's said he'd like to continue it, if someone wants to foot the bill.

>>92894675
He did have a lot of stuff written out from the sound of it, so I wouldn't put it past him to just leave it unless the ownership details prove to be too cumbersome. But yea, the second point is probably the most concerning. Williams Street probably wouldn't go for a traditionally animated show, not unless Jack's success proves big enough to warrant the risk in cost.

If we're having this thread again then at the first sign we see of that infernal retard OP from the last thread, immediately tel him to fuck off.

Kimmy is best girl.

Man, I loved this one. Made me feel like a little kid again. I really hope they bring it back; I don't mind if its a reboot as long as it keeps its characters and the same animation.

>>92894675
Genndy has definitely expressed interest.

SBT was pretty highly rated on AS at the time, though I don't really keep up with AS anymore so I don't know how current ratings compare. But I could see AS having interest.

Point 3 is what probably kills it though. I don't understand how this weird tax write off thing works, but it seems like a snarl that's pretty difficult to untangle.

>>92894837
Have to wonder how things were going to play out once she learned Newton was a robot. Can only wonder if they'd go the typical "I feel betrayed" route or maybe surprise people with her being totally okay about it.

>>92894921
From what I've heard in previous threads discussing shows that got written off to the government; it's quite costly to reacquire the rights, and the IP can't be distributed on regular channels or some such, but digital services are apparently exempt from the rule.

I imagine though that Genndy would then probably write up the second season to be the end and just aim for another 20 episode deal so he could cover the shit he wanted to get done most.

Always wondered if they'd do an evil titan team consisting of Kimmy and maybe two people Lance and Ilana cared for. It would certainly fit with the giant robot/super sentai shows the series was paying homage to.

Why did Jack and Ashi look like Lance and Ilana at points anyway?

I swear I thought I was looking at an adult Lance at points in the finale.

>>92897384
Could have sworn she did see him like that.

>>92897451
Jack and Lance being similar, you say? Let's see... Dark hair, bedroom eyes, moody demeanor. I totally get it.

>>92897684
Then what would Ilana think of Jack?

>>92897947
Probably a very noble and courageous man, like everyone else who had met him.

Hell, Lance and Ilana are very much like the alien prince and princess from that one episode, except being able to put up a serious fight.

>>92897998
Don't people say that Genndy just took that episode and made it into Titan?

>>92897998
To be fair, the prince and princess were unable to fight back due to the high gravity of Earth. Once they countered that they were pretty badass warriors.
>>92897947
I can actually see her falling for Jack. He's attractive, courageous, kind, dutiful, and even royalty. He's older than her, so it could be a one sided teen crush. It'd certainly be cute as fuck.

>>92898085
He obviously liked that premise. Maybe it was subconscious or maybe not. Anyway, Octus was way better than the C3-P0 ripoff of that episode.

>>92898088
Considering Jack fell for the Japanese Daughter of Aku version of her, I doubt it'd be completely one sided.

>>92898151
Ilana is too young for Jack; unlike Ashi who is an adult. Also, Ashi has done more for Jack than anyone ever did.

>>92898124
I barely remember the C-3PO knockoff so you're right about that.

>>92898201
Ashi never seemed like an adult to me, and that's not including the age difference caused by Jack's time in the future.

>>92898201
I dunno anon, Ilana could probably bring back his hope the same way Ashi did.

>>92894675
Genndy said he just has a new project and Adult Swim wants him to do another show.

A SBT resurrection could be beneficial if they end up rerunning Season 1 to build up hype.

>>92898360
I remember the way he got killed. It was so sporadic it actually caught me off guard. I was both laughing and shocked.

>>92898387
She' around her 20, late 10s at least. Ilana was in highschool age.

>>92898539
Could have sworn they mentioned Ilana being at least 16 or so. Which probably would make sense as they were probably going to be in the school for a while before having to move on once graduation became a plot point.

>>92898409
While her optimism, determination and kindness could carry Jack through, I think one of the most important reasons why Jack was able to recuperate his hope thanks to Ashi was not only because of her actions towards him, but for what she represented. She was a human isolated to the point of becoming a relentless killing machine who only lived to see Jack death. She was a perfect representation of corrupted innocence under Aku's influence, much like the world had been. However, by showing her disposition to change and even help Jack fight back she made Jack realize that there was till something worth fighting for in that "forsaken time" as he'd refereed to it.

>>92898587
She's 17.

>>92898626
Alright, that's a good point.

Just ask /a/ or /m/ for recommendations. If Samurai Jack's finale is any indication you might as well get the original instead of the rip off.

>>92898539
Jack called her a child, so Ashi and her sisters are probably highschool age too.

>>92899023
Do you ever miss when you were a minor and therefore could jack off to underage charters without being a pedo?
I certainly do

>>92899103
It's alright anon, depending on your country it's probably legal for you to do that.

>>92899095
I recall Jack referring to Ashi as a woman.

>>92899103
It wouldn't be pedo since 17 isn't a kid.

>>92899134
It's not like it keeps me from doing so, but there's always this nagging itch in the back of my head reminding me how much of a creep I'm becoming with age.

>>92899173
It's your conscience.

>>92899173
Well they're fictional characters, you can just pretend they're older and still looking the same.

>>92899136
He called her both IIRC.

>>92899209
I thought it was spiders.
>>92899224
But then they don't turn me on as much

>>92899245
I don't want to know how a spider got into your head, but it's probably your conscience.

Same here, besides what about this girl? Pretty sure she's the most likely romance option for Lance.
I'm just tired of the leads always falling for each other, it's way too cliche and lazy, everyone defaults to it, a princess and her guardian is a much more interesting friendship than a romance.

The spider has my respect then.

>>92899696
They're already like brother and sister at this point, they shouldn't ruin it.

I feel like Kristin and Lance would've just gone back and forth on things if they became a couple based on both times they've interacted.

>>92899696
Ilana and Lance's relationship was really cute; I liked their sibling like friendship. That scene with them having dinner really solidify it for me.

>>92899696
I would say it's only cliché and lazy because the majority of the time it's done without any believable progression. Most you may get is suddenly the boy or girl are upset about something the other has done (usually with someone of the opposite sex) and then being moody until an argument and suddenly WE'RE IN LOVE.

Still, I agree that they were best staying friends and only getting closer as fake brother and sister.

>>92899956
Is it really fake if they become blood siblings or sworn family though?

>>92899956
Genndy said he wanted them to be platonic.

>>92900639
Never said anything that implied they were getting interested with each other.

>>92900685
Other people in this thread seem to think otherwise and I didn't feel like scrolling back up.

>>92901624
It was already a bit romantic for those kids in that movie early on. It just wasn't more clear until the end, and even then not much of the focus compared to say Howl's Moving Castle.

Said some shit about how its cool to have a male-female companionship without it having to be romance or some shit
