Excuse me, WTF?

What is /this/ about? Damn it. If they's just modernized his animation a bit... that would have been coole but why does he look like some sort of evil psycho-killer? Dear God.

I like new things but that one is lame.

Looking around this morning made me sad since the whole hockey cancelation thing is a) on every freaking paper and b) probably the most publicity the sport has ever gotten in the US.

Also, for people coming to see Constantine, the lovely and talented Heather has provided a link for tickets.

The plots are action-oriented, filled with chases and fights. Each character possesses a special crime-fighting power.

Oh, Gods; that sounds HORRIBLE!

Heh.

Nah. That part doesn't sound so bad. I guess what I'm reacting to is this trend towards making everything darker. I mean, this is me. I love my dark and angsty and twisted stuff but if everything were that way, it wouldn't be nearly so cool.

I disagree. Teen Titans did well with a little dark because they were a superhero group, they already went around fighting crime. I don't see Bugs and Daffy as a good medium for action and existential agnst. I guess I just got too used to the classic Loony Toons of the 40s and 50s. Chuck Jones over Frank Miller is my association when it comes to Bugs.

Well, it could work but the crime fighting thing is what really catches me up. There are a lot of parallels I could draw between Teen Titans as a cartoon and what this whole thing could be. It could be dark and scary and inana at other points.

You're right, though, the part that does snag in my brain is the 'special crime fighting powers'.
