Why did everything he wrote in the ben10 franchise feel like a fanfic?Seriously there's no single good thing about alien force and ultimate alien compared to the 2005 series
>Everything is le dark and edgy but in a PG-13 way
>Fanfic tier romance
>No original aliens just ripoff powercreeps
>Bad sound effects
>Laughable transformation sequences
>Shitty copypaste designs
>Incoherent return to "monster of the week" format after the HB arc
>"ALIENS EVERYTHING ALIENS!"
ov is the only series after the os that's watchable,It tried to retcon UAF and tie loose ends in not the most glamorous ways but still way better than whatever DM did.

What a joke
Agreed

Shameless selfbumb
I wouldn't call it a fanfic, because that would imply that he's a fan of the series. It seemed to me like a very soulless, generic action show with extremely minimal knowledge of the original.
people forget it and forgive because he died young and he was one of the people behind justice league
Its in this very period were the toyatic nature of the show became apparent also i heard that AF and UA had a huge drop in ratings is this true?
I think its also because Moa did a bigger mistake than he did (the reboot) so people forgot how awful the sequels were.
On the topic of s3 does anyone find it bizarre that huge additions of the lore were brought up and swept under the rug?Like they weren't convenient to any plotline or anything it almost seems like DM didn't plan anything after the highbreed invasion and just wanted to drag on the franchise forever and bring up the old fanbase with os villains(this also applies to UA but I'm talking about AF here),On the top of my head are episodes such as "primus" or "the secret of chromastone"
Ben would never beat Hal or any DC character we get it user
it's his blunder but he has a legacy whatever
go watch Omniverse it's great lol
I did it's very enjoyable and not written by blacks
>Tetrax homeworld is rebuilt in a filler episode
>Vilgax returns with a cartoony design
>Shown as benevolent despite that not being stated in os and not brought up ever again
>DM just brings up him so he can get btfo
I'm still mad
Shut up
I kind of like the idea of Vilgax being beloved by his own people but it was so boring and out of character in UAF. That episode could've been done a much different way.
apparently the need to sell toys is why all the alien started shouting their names
t.seething bencels,By far hal has shown greater speedfeats than what the failsafe can react to meanwhile ben can only enter hyperspace with one alien.
>attended the mcduffie award ceremony
>”white man bad! Diversity gud!”
Except that wasn't shown in os and doesn't mash well with vilgax just being a force of nature its just a hamfisted attempt at making him more sympathetic or more accurately a psued way of trying to show that AF is better than its previous predecessor in terms of writing.
oh shit, you're actually back to taking this meme seriously again?
lol lame.
The canonical reason is that the recalibrated omnitrix apparently uploads information about the aliens so the user instantly knows what the form can do but that's just a copout to the actual out of universe reason.
Isn't that after his death?I don't know about his other contributions to animation (other than static shock) but most of the characters in AF are white there's like one black kid and thats it.
>no argument
Typical benfag response show me any feat that can help ben even confront hal for a nanosecond.
Don't forget that it was established that the plumbers disbanded in the original series meanwhile AF shows that "Dey wuz intergalactic n shiet" such a mess in the continuity not to mention the whole kevin father being a pumbler,Don't even try to convince me that anything after the 2005 series and the movie is remotely canon.
Consider that everything in UAF and ov is non canon how would you write a continuation of the original series?I'd honestly just not include a timeskip and still focus on 11 y/o ben keep mutants canon from the get go and don't change azmuth because he was entertaining as an asshole not a yoda esque character.
Fuck you, he also wrote some of the best episodes of JL/JLU.
He's still stronger than Ben
Seething,Honestly kinda glad he didn't work on omniverse maybe heart attacks are good after all.
>minimal knowledge
I heard that Matt wayne and DM didn't actually watch the original show which would explain shit like the forever knights suddenly being xenophobic towards aliens or the entire ragnarock clusterfuck or even charmcaster backstory.

What was the point of primus and Eunice?For such a big concept related to the main gimmick of the entire franchise (omnitrix) it didn't have much plot behind it also by the nature of scanning it appears that the final version didn't rely on that planet at all (it can store genetic samples not present in the codon stream on its own) Also apparently that got retconned due to the alien x recreation of the universe according to DJW but he's an inconsistent liar because matt Wayne says anything not mentioned in omniverse is to be suspected,Back to my original point primus (the planet and the episode) didn't have much relevancy at all so i ask again wtf is the point of all of this?
