Why are their cartoon departments so shit?
Capeshit is at peak popularity

Action cartoons in the past were a vehicle to sell toys. Fewer kids are watching TV period, they're just watching youtubers and streamers. And they're not buying as many toys, they're just playing video games. If pretty much the ONLY ways to monetize a show aren't working any more, they're not going to make that show.

Joshua White
The DC cartoon movies are okay.
Jaxon Davis
The recent Superman one was decent, but all the New 52 ones were shit.

Funny that, I recall ridiculous amounts of toys from BTAS, and even a few STAS, but not a single Justice League toy.
Nathaniel Hughes
Maybe Disney doesn't want to weaken the brand by having too much cape content adults wouldnt be interested in
David Martinez
Ryan Cruz
Aquaman is getting an animated mini series. I'm not sure why Wondy never got one though.
Xavier Gonzalez
Ahem
Jose Jenkins
She's part of DC Superhero Girls. Kids companies don't like to dilute the brand, so they focus on X Product for Boys and Y Product for Girls. Easier market saturation that way.
Joseph Wilson
I'm hyping myself for Long Halloween, if they do that shit right, I'll fucking die happy
Julian Martin
>not a single Justice League toy
The existed. I had a bunch of them, but I think they were Unlimited.
That's not the case because Marvel had plenty of cartoons the last few years. It's just that they were all shit.
Cameron Watson
With the exception of Young Justice all the DC cartoons are entertaining and fun. It’s the DC live action movies that are self-important shite.
Matthew Jackson
They've done nothing worthwhile since Batman Brave and the Bold and that was a decade ago.
Bentley Lee
Jordan Richardson
he clearly means an action show but Harley Quinn has a surprising amount of fights akin to BBATB in that regard as the cheesy action music atests too
Luis Murphy
>marvel and dc have no good cartoons right now
EXCUSE ME WHAT'S DCSHG?!
Camden Mitchell
it's shit
Nolan Thomas
it's good
Parker Martinez
it's okay but not great
David Lewis
I don't know, I haven't watched it.
Adam Perez
I'd paypig a service that included a new version of the JL cartoons, same art, same tone, with an updated production budget.
Christian Turner
Man of Tomorrow was the most boring shit I've ever watched. It's pretty, sure, but pretty boring shit.
Eli Long
>monetization
Have Marvel and DC considered streaming services? Pay via subscription, no need for toys or merchandising.
Isaiah Martinez

Live-action capeshit is at peak popularity, no one cares about shitty drawings for kids and nerds.
Jonathan Lee
>Aquaman is getting an animated mini series
TIED TO THE FUCKING MOVIE
It's okay but I'd rather have traditional series, this just a show made to sell dolls that happens to not be soulless.
Joseph Howard
>Have Marvel and DC considered streaming services?
Marvel has. That's why we're getting new shows on Disney+.

You must have skipped the last 20 dtv DC movies then. Man of Tommorow is great and one of the best dtv animated films they've done.
Nolan Fisher
If anything animated capeshit is antithetical to what made the MCU, and capes as a whole, successful. People want to be rewarded for consuming easy to digest content, and the stigmatization of animation means that adult midwits need to convince themselves to watch it.
David Bailey
Meanwhile in Japan
Owen Young
You're a few years late, shit is dying.
Parker Turner
all i'm hearing on my end is you going GLK GLK GLK and the sounds of your throat's muscles swallowing japanese cum as you say "thank you nation of the rising sun"

Millenials still buy toys. Maybe they should shift their toy demographics to an older audience while researching newer products for Zoomers. They could charge a premium for better articulation and more extras since older manchildren have more disposable income.
Jeremiah Brown
so why are the gravitating towards anime
