Late on this, but I'm liking everything I'm hearing (though I'm still underwhelmed given how much they built up the animation style for this show), especially the new take on Harley which I find refreshing.
Should we be expecting a trailer anytime soon now that we've finally got a release date?
Yeah, I hope that post won't sound like I'm a
party-pooper because I'm super excited for the series, but I just hope the animation is of a much higher quality than what's usually produced by DC animation these days. Especially with, like you said, the emphasis on this aspect in the initial announcement, but also the fact that there are Abrams and Reeves production companies behind it
(and maybe some Amazon money?).
As said in a previous post, I'd love to see something as tight and dynamic as the old TMS episodes like
“Feat of Clay part. 2“ . While it's a bit unfair to judge on still images, it seems in this first look
(and in the leaks...hum) that things may not be quite as sophisticated, especially when it comes to light and shadow. The stylization and line works looks fine, but the color palette seem a little bit flat to me, lacking contrast... At least for now.
Of course, this wouldn't be a dealbreaker, as the series shows a lot of promise and I've always been a fan of Bruce Timm's style anyway.
But still, I'm hoping that the series will be visually a notch above what's usually done. At the very least, it should look in the same ballpark as
"Justice League: Gods & Monsters".
Anyway, I really hope we'll get a trailer soon!
