justice leage animation vs. btna animation

[joker]

on friday night they played "worlds finest" back to back with the second part of where green lanturn is on trial. and i noticed that animation on "worlds finest" was much better than the animation on the episode on justiceleage. did any one else notice this and can any one think of reasons why?

[Karkull]

I thought so too. It's probably a different animation studio. Hopefully we'll see the good one soon.

Here we go again. :)

But in this case, it's a matter of different cartoon studios. So far the JL episodes have been done by Dong Yang/KOKO, which does a darn good job. World's Finest was done by TMS, whose outstanding work is unparallelled in the field of TV animation (well, maybe by Sunrise).

Is TMS doing any of the episodes (Injustice Gang, Injustice Gang, Injustice Gang, etc.)?

I still think there is no better looking animated series in this universe than BTAS. Not that I don't like JL, but there is something about those BTAS episodes that are just awesome to look at in an almost breathtaking way.

TMS? I dunno... we can only hope!

TMSD did indeed animated Worlds Finest as well as a host of Batman/Superman episodes like Over The Edge, Speed Demons, Never fear, The Promotheon and countless more. Dong Yank/KOKO is currently the sole animated for JL. They did Batman episodes such as Knight Time, The Demon Reborn, Mad Love, and Girls Nite Out among countless others.

If the same studio that animated "Knight Time" and "Mad Love" is doing JL, then why doesn't it look as good??? The lines are way too thin, and the characters just don't move the same and the show is too colorful. But I like it anyways! Still, though, those were awesome TNBA episodes, so why is JL looking so..off?

The things you are complaining about have nothing to do with the animation studios. Bruce Timm just changed some of the design ideas for Justice League. The show is more colorful etc. but that's because Timm wanted something different. They change things in every series. BTAS was most heavily detailed. STAS streamlined things. TNBA was even more streamlined than STAS. Batman in TNBA had practically no muscle definition animated on him. JL has more detail than TNBA in the characters are more notably in the backgrounds, buildings etc. I think the new Batman is better designed but the new Superman is too bulky and his face doesn't always animate well. I like some of the changes I don't like some of the others. That's kinda how it is ya know?

this show is still ten times friggin' better than most other shows on TV (IMO).

[James Harvey]

The show definatly is better then most other shows on television right now. The new computer coloring and design changes are part of the reason why the animation is so different from B:TAS. You can see the transitoon from animation in Batman Beyond. Episode #26 was the last traditionally done episode for Batman Beyond before the computer coloring took over in episode #27. You can see the leap from traditional coloring (Batman, Superman, BB) to the computer coloring (BB, JL). If JL was traditionally colored, then things would likely look different.

I'm not complaining :rolleyes:

Because Dong Yang has always been somewhat inconsistent. They did all the animation for Batman Beyond, for instance, both the good and the bad.
