See, bringing back shows that was cancelled quickly it was way to go, not reboot shit that ran its course. Nobody asked for another PPG reboot.

This. How would the budget even work for that kind of thing? It would either be a 3D show or have worse 2D animation.

Only popular shows get to come back, that's why Phineas and Ferb, Gumball, Regular Show, Adventure Time, and Steven Universe are all coming back.

Good. I'm glad it was canceled. Focus on new ideas instead of digging up the past when it wouldn't have been good anyway.

I would guess any robots would probably be some kind of cel-shaded CG. MEGAS would look good, the others aybe not so much.

Ironic considering that the mecha genre was created as a way to save on animation budget because robots don't look as janky when animated at lower frame rates.

Off-topic, but now, when an obscure cartoon from the 90s/2000's is talked in this board, it's because it blew up on tt or yt...?

No because Discovery probably wrote off canceling a show before it started production as a loss for tax purposes.

if the original show was written off they couldn't have even planned using it again. The entire written off thing comes from literally one tumblr post from the time saying CN had "written off" the show along with sym-bionic titan and beware the batman and was just dumping the eps now and because /co/ is autist central people look written off LITERALLY instead of the way the person clearly really meant

I was joking about how often Warner Bros. Discovery writes off and scraps their properties for tax reasons.

Though part of me feels like a reboot would only work if it was on adult swim whilst keeping the writing the same , but that very much wont be the case and we would just get another "EXPECTATIONS SUBVERTED" scenario.

I love megas, sonido rather see it return in a better time.
The industry as it stands can't make it good and won't make it good.

We need to wait at least 5 years to see if things change for the better.

The reason the cartoon industry is in the gutter is because of the shitty "animators" in general, and their monopoly represented by T.A.G., but you can get banned for reproaching people like Rebecca Sugar and Dana Terrace

I wonder sometimes what the daily life is of the average 4chan poster like you who develops an attachment to something obviously shitty just to be a contrarian. There's no incentive to being a Zaslav fan, except for letting you get to spite others. Is it worth it?

Yeah what channel was this? I think the creator mentioned getting excited for megas stuff years ago and nothing came from it.

I'm not a fan of Zaslav or his decisions but I know that someone has to take responsibility for the failures that have been pushed out all the name of "artistic expression" and "creativity" that the overgrown toddlers in the cartoon industry use ad nauseam to justify the endless stream of excrement they let out.

And yes, it is worth telling all the spoiled, privileged "animators" and their ilk that it's time for strong men to make everyone be responsible, and you should disembowel yourself, you shit-eating faggot.

The original show was written off, not the whole IP. A reboot was always in the cards. They had Kiva in the big OKKO crossover from a few years ago. For comparison, itโ€™s not like writing off Coyote vs ACME meant they could never use Wile E in a project again.

I'm gonna be completely honest. As much as I loved Megas, I didn't even think it had particularly great animation.
