The 2003 2d one. It is not really traditional animation because there are obvious computer effects in some shots and coloring was all done digitally by then.

Re: A Criticism of the Prequel Trilogy That Kinda Bugs Me

Yeah, honestly I feel you can watch the prequel beginning with episode three and lose nothing really. I think people could and should start with the freely available Star Wars Clone Wars. https://youtu.be/g6-yclEOgR4 The Clone Wars are a thing Obi-Wan name drops in 4, it shows set up for Anakin fal...

Re: Superman AS: World's Finest

Which is ironic because they go out of their way to not give Harley a good outfit, I mean seriously with the exception to the Harley quinn cartoon, almost every outfit she wore since the arkham games are garbage, the live action ones especially. Hard disagree. Bumblegum colors twin tails were a goo...

Re: Americas Middle Class Massacre *sobs*

Of course it does, and I absolutely agree. The issue I have with your model is this idea of skilled labor that requires education pushing you into a different class. Because we're quickly moving towards the point where almost all forms of unskilled labor can be automated. Once the average labor bec...

Re: Bad police files - the Derek Chauvin case is giving us a rare look behind the scenes

Yeah, I do wonder why we are the ones with all these problems? American policing basically started one of two ways: slave patrols or warehouse guards. You can guess why there are some legacy issues. Also we're not alone in this. See my post earlier in this thread that links to a state department re...

Re: Americas Middle Class Massacre *sobs*

I do understand the Marxist idea of Class, but Karl Marx was writing and thinking in a very different time from the present. I don't believe that idea has stood the test of time particularly well. When Karl Marx was writing, mass labor was required for the production of goods. The vast majority of ...

Re: A Criticism of the Prequel Trilogy That Kinda Bugs Me

I think having Ben live in the end could work, but it couldn't be played off as "oh he's redeemed, so everything is fine and everyone is cool now". That was sort of okay (though not really) with Anakin because he got to die in the end and not face any consequences for all the 20+ years of war crime...

Re: Americas Middle Class Massacre *sobs*

First, this idea of bracketing "the classes" by income is some deep American brain rot. I do not know how else to put it. There two primary classes, those who own for their income and those who work for it. Europeans have fancy words for these, but owners and workers are the real basic distinction....

Re: Superman AS: World's Finest

Even thought it was off screen, I loved the fight between Mercy and Harley. Is it me or did Mercy never catch on like Harley did, maybe it the outfit. Mercy is just so much less visually interesting than Harley. Her whole deal is that she is Lex's "normal assistant " (for a DCAU character, she cuts...
