    Personal opinion: If you ask me I think Disney's Pixar and Universal Dreamworks has a Arcane problem.

    And many say WB removed "Batman: The Killing Joke" way too early. Who knows how much it would have made if WB kept the film in theaters? Despite the fact that the first 15 minutes of the film were not great.

    Personal opinion: If you ask me I think Disney's Pixar and Universal Dreamworks has a Arcane problem.

    Somewhat true, except you forgot "Batman: The Killing Joke" based on the comic of the same name. The film was 9th of the most highest mature-grossing animated film and would have gotten more money if WB hadn't pulled the film so soon. And there is South Park: Bigger Lowder Uncut, and a few...

    Personal opinion: If you ask me I think Disney's Pixar and Universal Dreamworks has a Arcane problem.

    Yeah, I know Inside Out 2 was a smash hit for Pixar, But the large amount of flops that came before it as well of all the other flops that DreamWorks had to do with Netflix and Amazon just killing it with all these over more mature Animated shows. Yeah, it started with Castlevania on Netflix...

    Spicy City: 1997 Ralph Bakshi failed attempt to make an adult animated show.

    At least it came out when Todd McFarlane's Spawn came out, another adult-animated show was a troubled production but at least more seasons—3 at least. and not forgetting the lawsuit Todd McFarlane had with Neil Gaiman, but that is another story.

    Spicy City: 1997 Ralph Bakshi failed attempt to make an adult animated show.

    Obscure??? No, it's like Ralph Bakshi took "Heavy Metal" and merged it with "The Twilight Zone" with some original elements from the original Cyberpunk tabletop game.

    Spicy City: 1997 Ralph Bakshi failed attempt to make an adult animated show.

    Spicy City had everything going for it, premiering next to Todd McFarlane's Spwan on HBO, and coming out before Shout Park. It ran for one season and was never heard of again. Sex, Drug use, lots of nudity, and not forgetting graphic violence, this show had it all. Hard to say what took it down...

    Pantheon: How One Mistake Killed an Ahead of Its Time, animated series.

    The worst part was this was also the last role of William Hurt before he sadly passed away. And AMC just swept it under the rug pretending they never even made the show. :(

    Pantheon: How One Mistake Killed an Ahead of Its Time, animated series.

    This show was ahead of its time coming out when Invincible, and Arcane started on both Netflix and Amazon. This show looked as if it was going to follow as a certain sickness I will not name ravaged through the world. (I think you know what I was talking about.) But suffered the same problems as...

    "Exosquad" Retro Series Talkback (Spoilers)

    As said in the South Park TV show, And it's gone. Or soon will be. I saw this coming a mile away. Even though the show was good and all, no one liked the show either for going for a toy made by a toy Company Playmates that no longer or ever did own the rights to Exosquad. Or just not liking the...

    "X-Men '97 (Disney+)" Animated Series News & Discussion, Part 2 (Spoilers)

    If anything Disney should thank Universal Studios and the late Michael Edens for the success of X-Men 97.

    What do you think modern adult animation?

    To be fair most of the politics in X-Men 97 that came from the original X-Men cartoon was mostly taken from the late writer Michael Edens whose work has been crapped on before his passing from cancer and not from Disany much. Mostly Disney didn't seem to pay him any tribute I guess. Before...

    "Exosquad" Retro Series Talkback (Spoilers)

    As of right now NBC/Universal and Dreamworks Animation own Exosquad. That's why it's now Peacock and slowly dying streaming service. Half or most of the shows on Toonami or Adult Swim didn't belong to them but Cartoon Network is owned by Warner Bros. And right before Universal bought out...

    Turbo Teen and cartoon that gave most kids nightmares. What happens if Ranma ½ and David Cronenberg somehow made a happy little Cartoon.

    I know this show came out before Ranma ½, but Ranma ½ was clearly better in every way. That transformation of that kid turning into a car still gives me nightmares. And I'm not kidding about the Ranma ½ comparisons when the main character Alex gets hot he turns into a car and when he gets cold...

    Saturday Morning Cartoons that went full-body horror.

    Sony has what is known as Broadcasting rights. Sony kinda has the same with Spider-Man movie rights but everything else belongs to Marvel AKA Disney. But EA still owns Mutant League but Sony has the Broadcasting rights mostly because they bought the production company out. The only time I've...

    Saturday Morning Cartoons that went full-body horror.

    Odd and interesting. I have seen NBC/Universal takedowns of Exosquad. But I've heard of Warner Brothers takedowns of Turbo Teen even now. By the way, EA still owns the name Mutant League

    Saturday Morning Cartoons that went full-body horror.

    First, you do know that Exosquad is on Peacock in the kid's section and it was aired in the early mornings unedited. And let's not forget Dreamworks Animation now owns the show. And yes it was shown on the weekends as well, Or did you forget it was shown on USA Network on the weekends after it...

    Saturday Morning Cartoons that went full-body horror.

    The first one I knew of was and I know you all know "Inhumanoids" It lasted 19 Eps. It was brought to us by Hasbro, and meant to crossover with G.I.Joe and Transformers only for Hasbro to realize her mistake and canceled it by EP 19. Yes, this horrifying mess was a hilarious mistake was an...

    Heavy Metal; the ultraviolent animated movie that no one remembers, and the sequel no one even knows about

    I don't know what happened, but it took like a long time to get to VHS and when it finally did DVDs were the thing. It came in theaters in 1981 and was mostly shown late at night on Cinemax and I think the DVD and VHS release was in 1996. I have no idea why the long release time, but someone...

    Heavy Metal 2000 is just the late Julie Strain showing how hot she looks in cartoon form, and Michael Ironside being Michael Ironside. RIP to John Candy and Julie Strain. And to the rest, I can't name right now.

    Heavy Metal; the ultraviolent animated movie that no one remembers, and the sequel no one even knows about

    That may be true for this site but on others like YouTube, the reviews are mostly pretty small. And its sequel Heavy Metal: 2000 is like a ghost town.

    Heavy Metal; the ultraviolent animated movie that no one remembers, and the sequel no one even knows about

    in 1981 Heavy Metal a Canadian American animated film that not many remember anymore came out. Sex, Drug use, and of course a lot of violence. And then in 2000, Heavy Metal: 2000 came out in limited theaters, not really a shocker that it flopped the way it did. Also Heavy Metal: 2000 only had...

    Don Bluth Still Believes 2D Animated Films Can Return

    After Exosquad was canceled for no reason by MCA/Universal back then, the Titan AE commercials gave me hope. And then the movie came out, and all hope for a good serious, sci-fi, animated film or TV show was pretty much dead after that. Even though Iron Giant was good it still sadly flopped...

    Don Bluth Still Believes 2D Animated Films Can Return

    I remember Titan AE, It bombed so bad and killed Don Bluth's career. And to make things sadder, it's now owned by Disney now. Mostly the film wasn't that bad, but Fox really screwed up that last zoom-out scene of the Planet. Sometimes a single scene can kill your whole film, and a low-rendered...

    "Invasion America" is the one Dreamworks animated miniseries that they don't want you to know they made.

    Well, Red Planet is based on a Robert A. Heinlein novel of the same name. His Starship Troopers inspired many different TV shows, video games, Japanese anime, and movies the list keeps going on.
