BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

BIG TIME

...that is stupid. i know the uniform is generated by the ring and thus is "technically" made up of light and such but still. boo-urns.

Jeritron 04-14-2010 01:46 AM

It should just be a regular suit enhanced with CGI where needed

mitchables 04-14-2010 01:47 AM

yup, for sure. don't know why they'd cgi the whole thing.

Jeritron 04-14-2010 01:58 AM

I wonder if that includes a CGI mask. That would just be the peak of uneccessary CGI, and look so awful

Funky Fly 04-14-2010 08:26 AM

Maybe they are going for that Dr. Manhattan effect... which was hella expensive, mind you.

mitchables 04-14-2010 10:29 PM

yeah but manhattan didn't have to move around with anywhere near the kind of speed or agility that jordan does. he just walked real slow and pointed his finger at tanks.

mitchables 04-14-2010 10:30 PM

so it will be even more costly and look bad, is what i am saying.

Funky Fly 04-15-2010 06:08 AM

damn

Yeah, or certain parts of it. The CGI should accent parts of it for that green glow effect.

Kalyx triaD 04-15-2010 02:53 PM

Well I'd assume since he's wearing a tight suit anyway there will be a primarily black recolor with some white (gloves?) and a soft green cover to avoid the Dr. Manhattan effect.

The Destroyer 04-15-2010 03:03 PM

Could also have something to do with the fact that green screen and green costumes don't go together.

Jeritron 04-15-2010 03:24 PM

That wouldn't be the reason for doing something like this. There have been green costumes and characters in CGI environments before.
They would just use a blue screen. It does the same thing, and is used just as often. In fact, blue screens were used before greens ever were

Kalyx triaD 04-15-2010 03:25 PM

I'm just trying to make since in what has to be the most superfluous use of CGI I've ever heard of.

Jeritron 04-15-2010 03:31 PM

I was responding to The Destroyer.

I'm sure the suit would be more than a recolor since he'll be covered with mo-cap balls. At least that's what the report said.

I really am curious to see if they CGI his mask. That would be ridiculous.
The "his suit is otherworldly" excuse is kind of lame. Yes, it has otherworldly powers that would call for CGI glow and CGI effects when he changes into it.
Still, it's a suit. It's a skin tight suit with a logo, boots, gloves, etc.
It's always been drawn as such and it's never looked like it wasn't a suit that Green Lantern wasn't physcially wearing.
I think that's lame logic for wanting to CGI the thing.

Jeritron 04-15-2010 03:34 PM

It's ridiculous to act like there is anything about his suit that is fundamentally different from Superman, Batman, Spiderman, etc., other than the fact that it has a bright green glow around his person.

Lock Jaw 04-15-2010 03:52 PM

I will reserve judgment until I see the result.

On second thought, screw it.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Jeritron 04-15-2010 03:58 PM

If it's good I will admit it obviously. I hope it is. I just think it's a shit idea.

I've been over CG for a while now though. It's over-used in general.

Kalyx triaD 04-20-2010 07:46 PM

Jonah Hex trailer with Elm Street prints. See it. Or wait 2 hours for YouTube to get it that night.

Lock Jaw 04-21-2010 12:24 AM

Completely forgot all about the Jonah Hex movie.

dronepool 04-21-2010 12:37 AM

This looks good, can't wait.

Here Come the Kids:

http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h2...ungjustice.jpg

Peep the people behind this:

This series is produced by Warner Bros. Animation. Sam Register ("Teen Titans," "Ben 10," "Batman: The Brave and the Bold") is the executive producer. Brandon Vietti ("Batman: Under the Red Hood," "Superman Doomsday," "The Batman") and Greg Weisman ("Gargoyles," "The Spectacular Spider-Man," "W.I.T.C.H.") are the producers.

Holy shit, this is looking hot. Digging the art style and I love the roster. Bring it on, Titans.

Kalyx triaD 04-22-2010 12:08 AM

Why is Aqualad black, though? Should have went with Static Shock for the requisite minority...

Fignuts 04-22-2010 12:10 AM

Why is martian manhunter a girl?

Jeritron 04-22-2010 12:15 AM

Why?

Lock Jaw 04-22-2010 12:17 AM

Pretty lame. If you're going to do a Young Justice show, use the characters who were actually on the team.

Sucks that it is Kid Flash and not Impulse too.

Is the masked green lady supposed to be Arrowette?

Lock Jaw 04-22-2010 12:19 AM

Also, it is Miss Martian, a relatively new character. Not Martian Manhunter.

Miss Martian is really a "White Martian" or something like that, but disguises herself as a green martian because white martians are normally all evil or something.

Lock Jaw 04-22-2010 12:20 AM

Also, I HATE jeans/T-shirt Superboy. Give him his costume back. Some personality too.

Also, I will not slow down "bro".

I like this Superboy way better than that 90's loser (who was a stab at Marvel's dress code back then - jacket/coat over jumpsuits).

Lock Jaw 04-22-2010 12:58 AM

I like Second Costume Superboy. Didn't hate him before that, but his look was definitely dated to the 90s in his original costume.

Superboy was at his best when he was in Young Justice though.

Inadequacy 04-22-2010 01:40 AM

If Greg weisman is attached I'll probably check this out.

I don't follow DC religiously, and have never seen a martian girl.

Fucking sue me.

Jeritron 04-22-2010 01:51 PM

Either way, she's some lame progression from Martian Manhunter, and it should never have been done in the first place.

Lock Jaw 04-22-2010 01:59 PM

She was pretty much created just to give Martian Manhunter a teen counterpart in the Teen Titans. Don't know if they've even ever actually met in the comics.

Shadow 04-22-2010 04:18 PM

They have. She's as ditzy as they come.

Think Teen Titans Starfire(from the cartoon) only 1000 times worse. She defeated her evil future self by thinking of puppies and other cute things.

Common sense would still dictate that in a team of teenage counterparts to the Justice League - that cannot be Martian Manhunter. Layman or not.

Fignuts 04-22-2010 05:08 PM

I would not put that concept out of the question when it comes to a non-canon cartoon show.

Kalyx triaD 04-22-2010 05:28 PM

Well Aqualad is black.
