@@TheNerdZone777 there were style differences in projects up to 2014. The style that lasted the longest was the 1996 Ocean Liner Deco overhaul of the Dark Deco look from 1992 which itself was an update to the original 1941 Fleischer theatrical serials. It's also still the most popular style choice to use for modern DC because it combines both Alex Toth and Jack Kirby's standard designs....Toth's outlines+ Kirby's square looks. Pre-Crisis the designs by Alex Toth were the most popular for Super Friends and Filmation (aside from Supes having Curt Swan's face-designs) with the only time the designs got an update was when 1985 pulled an overhaul by Josè Luís Lopez-Garcia and that style remained up through 1990's Swamp Thing by DiC as it was also used for R/S Superman with it serving as a transitionary style between a return to Dark Deco and the Classic Toth look.

The artstyle was meant to immitate the old Johnny Quest style for Pre-Crisis. Post-Crisis early on looked similar, but eventually took on a more Superpowers Team: Galactic Guardians look which more or less remained the comic style for a long time with simplified Bruce Timm versions co-existing in the multiverse as well as Alex Ross styles...and Alex Ross' style is considered the most unique because he actually paints it how Jimmy Olsen and Vicki Vale capture it on their camera lenses...you can see the suits are shiny where they need to be, the textures and folds on their clothes and you can actually even see bullets either bounce off Clark's chest or Diana's bracelets in streaks of silver and the glowing green energies of the Lantern Corps....as well as feel a large breeze when Wally runs by.

[@alexanderabramov2719]

IMO this could have been heavily influenced by things behind the scenes. Jensen Ackles was Batman - if he said he wasn't available to do Justice League after the Long Halloween, say if he wanted to film the Boys, that would definitely be a thing that would make them change things around and release 2 movies (without Batman) "out of order". It also coincides a bit too well with the new Batman show on Max. There were big shifts happening at the company around that time, with Gunn taking over and whatnot. It feels in many ways like they started out having a plan (until Long Halloween) but then were told to start scrapping everything and preparing for the new thing. It would be interesting if they tried having multiple animated series and films in the same universe again, I believe there's a chance for that. Don't get me wrong, the movies itself had a bunch of structural and script problems - like how Parralax Hal came down and singlehandedly wiped THE WHOLE Gl CORPS AND THE GUARDIANS AT ONCE and then basically got 1v1'd by John Stewart with a basic Power Ring... 🤦‍♂️ I was at least hoping they would do "villian realizes his mistake and loses willingly", that would work mich better, but no. But that's like the one egregious example, everything else was minor compared to it.

[@Superlad9494]

The JSA movie got some elements of a planned Wonder Woman show by Butch Lukich in it...and WB actually told a guy who knew what do with her...no, put it in the movie. I mean yes, she is a JSA member and glad they said she's in charge (because she's the Secretary of Defense), but really she couldn't get her own tv show just because of 1984's sour taste? It really looked like Lukich was going the Marston route too...right down to "I can only marry you after all the evils in the world are vanquished Steve and his endless proposals that wind up being games between Hawkman and Black Canary about if it's gonna be yes or still no today"

You can tell they had a much larger plan for the Tomorrowverse but it was likely rushed because of James Gunn’s DCU reboot. They were definitely trying to build up to a proper Justice League but right up until Green Lantern, they just skipped so much stuff, then Warworld happens and we’re supposed to pretend Wonder Woman was always around and was already a member of the team but its so jarring because we missed so much stuff in between the movies and I really think this universe was rushed because of what was happening with the live action stuff and they wanted to reboot and start connecting all forms of media into one timeline.

[@Superlad9494]

Wonder Woman was probably using those "multiversal hopping" things given the whole JSA business that happens pre-crisis and acting as part of the team, but only on select missions as Vixen takes her place as a founder of the league since they expressly wanted Diana as the leader of the JSA and to be long lived.

[@MRF1983]

I was born in 83, I grew up on the DCAU as it was happening. Adults made those cartoons for kids. Now my generation is the adults making these cartoons and we can't make anything like the cartoons we enjoyed as kids. Look at the recent X-Men 97 reboot. It was supposed to be a continuation of the 90s animated series, a kid's cartoon that handled mature adult themes without takling down to the intended audience. X-Men 97 had none of the heart and quality that made the original series great. It had violence, it had blood and death, it dabbled with modern identity politics, but it was a show clearly aimed at the adults who grew up with the original series and had none of the heart of that series or spoke with the maturity it did to a kid audience. The modern DC animated features suffer from the same lack of heart/ quality in my opinion. Look how far the adaptations stray from their source material. That used to be part of what made the 90s X-Men and Batman cartoons so great, they faithfully adapted as much as they could from the source material. When they did their own stories without adaptations, you often didn't know it because the quality of those episodes was the same as the adapted ones. We have more tools and resources than the previous generation did and yet the quality of what we produce today is evidently lesser. Look at the difference between Michael Jordan's Space Jam and LeBron James', none of the heart of Jordan's.

The tomorrowverse animation is just too awful.. They aren't making a crisis on infinite movie They are making movies in infinite budget crisis 🤡🤣🤣

[@scyxwill5965]

the two biggest reasons why i LOVE (and i my fav batman movie). the long halloween are the story(it set in gotham and no superheores,just batman solving a crime and we can see his detective side. after all he is the worlds greatest detective.) AND NO MUSIC( i dont know who will agree but a film with no music,just the ambient real life sounds of the city,the cars,the wind,the rain... it just makes it so PERFECT for the batman movie)

[@seeker2182]

I thought king Halloween was average and I remember liking the Superman movie kinda. Warworld was so bad like how do you mess that up? Should’ve been the justice league forced to be space gladiators or something cool like that. The Kamandi short was actually really good and I highly recommend it. If anyone is a fan of Jack Kirby’s art style you’ll love it.

The fact I enjoyed X-men 97 over any of the recent DC animation movies is wild

[@bochi5544]

Haven't watched Long Halloween or Crisis yet, but if Long Halloween is anything like the comic then its probably good. Aside from that, I thoguht Man of Tomorrow was a good start if nothing else. I liked the Ideas of Justice Society, Green Lantern, Legion, and Warworld, but they felt rushed and displaced. Honestly I'd rather the entire Tomorrowverse had just been pure Earth-2, or an Elseworld Anthology setting. Building up the JL - avenger's style, while skipping all the JL stuff was certainly a choice.

My problem with the Tommorverse is lack of character development.

[@ThePakman90]

Yeah, I'm not sure what you're talking about. Those last 3 movies were FIRE! Didn't Constantine have a story as well that you skipped. Could've done without them ishing on Hal Jordan but beside that the connections were pretty solid. From War world to Darkseid's death to Constantine and the Spectre, and destruction of the multiverse from the Anit-monitor, it was pretty good. Also, felt like that was the point. ALL of it was Elseworld stories. It took place in a scenario where Darkseid was killed off and had NO influence on the verse

[@CanineLupus0114]

They had a good start with Superman and Halloween then suddenly they decided to open the Pandora's Box (multiverse/reboot/nostalgia bait/flashpoint) again and that all became the focus of everything

[@SuperSayianWarrior]

The problem with the Tomorrowverse is every movie felt like a quota to be met. No cohesive narrative. Look at the new 52. Started with Flashpoint, next was War introducing the character forming the JL while also giving us Darkseid. After that it was cohesive movie after movie, focusing mostly on Batman sure, but it still developed the universe while actualky giving us satisfying plotlines. I'll be honest. Until this video I didn't know about most of these movies, Batman, and Crisis onky. Git snippets of Beward my power but the rest I didn't know were actually apart of the Tomorrow verse, which further proves the point about the movies being quota's

[@rockwellknuckles9425]

The DC Animated Universe from Justice League War on, was incredible. Perfect crew of DC characters. That and Young Justice are the best ever.

[@1highvelocity1]

It had some re potential too the Long Halloween was really good start the animation was solid too they needed to keep going in that direction

[@darthva31]

I love Man of Tomorrow. I think it's a better exploration on Superman's alien side than what Man of Steel did. The Long Halloween is also great. But after that, the movies are either okay or I didn't know they even exist.

[@KingOfMadCows]

It didn't fail, it was sabotaged. As always, WB was the problem. The writers planned 20 movies, WB ended up mandating 10 movies. And when Discovery bought WB, they laid off more than half of WB's animation department. Despite the problems, the movies still made a profit. But the execs aren't satisfied with only making a few million in profits, they want to make hundreds of millions.

[@thebatman1889]

Now marvel and dc are equal in animation Because everything after 2011 is awful in dc animation Meanwhile everything after 2011 is awesome and even got Oscars vy Marvel

[@aliastheabnormal]

Hal Jordan becoming Parallax happened in the comics.

[@litanime5177]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="475">7:55</a> i 100% agree

[@charlesblue1656]

The tomorrow verse was a lost cause by the time they got it up and going, Warner Brothers decided to use James gun and do a total reboot of their movies, animation and gaming. So they didn’t really care about tomorrow. In fact, I think they wanted to fail.

[@jjaramos]

I bought all of the DVDs up until after JL War (I didn't like the new 52 aesthetic), then I started picking and choosing and was mostly disappointed. Making The Death Of Superman and Hush in that continuity instead of standalone movies was a mistake in my opinion, just as altering the source material for who knows what reason. Then they released Apokolips War and I enjoyed it very much so I came back for Superman MOT and didn't like it very much; then I finally checked out after the WWII movie, the whole time-travelling/flashpoint/multiverse thing has really gotten old. As others have suggested, I think they should go back to standalone movies and explore different characters other than Batman.

[@CjackProductions]

Everything you said is accurate as hell

[@Chrissimpson-oo4qx]

Sounds like the biggest mistake with tomorrow's world is the rushed into crisis on infinite Earth without enough movies to really set the stage and give a good tone for how that universe works.
