#Batwheels cartoon

Sibling moments.

[bookishnewt]

My nephew is over, watching Batwheels and…

Batman having a portrait of Joker in the Batcave sent me 💀

That thing is bigger than the penny!

This is probably a calling card Joker left during a case but it is front and center.

Monstober Day 5: Witch

Are you a good witch or a bad witch? I watched the new Batwheels episode The Wizard of Bats and I have to say that Batwheels added such a great twist on L. Frank Baum’s most famous story about the Land of Oz.

[bryan360]

Not surprise to see “Teen Titans Go!” crossovers that I’m aware of. However, this one takes the cake for the most unbelievable. 😧

Originally scheduled for September 2023, they’ll be a new episode that heavily added Warner Bros owned properties from Hanna-Barbera, Looney Tunes, DC Comics, and even Cartoon Network like you won’t believe.

🐰🖌️Maxwell: Wow….don’t know this is suppose to be excited or concerning. And I’m not just talk about having to included in this “Teen Titans Go!” episode.

🥜Brown: I thought the same thing too. At least knowing that the part to celebrate its 100 year run. Which I would care if it wasn’t for the dumb merger….*Sigh*

🐰🖌️Maxwell: Don’t get yourself beat up, Brown. We still care about having a friend who’s into cartoon nostalgia. Nothing can change that for you while we’re around.

🥜Brown: Thanks, I guess.

Good Stuff: Best of 2022

This current year I say was a better current year than the one before, I mean the Queen died and that was funnier than Elon Musk's whole existence beyond the fact he sucks at Twitter. Never mind the chaotic reality we have, I'm celebrating the 10 best animations to come out this year. The only rule being they had to debut this year so while these two were banger entries, Amphibia and Owl House have to be exempt because I want to be fair. Otherwise, ANYTHING GOES so let's go...

Number 10: Batwheels

This reached the list for the sheer fact that it feels like a joke but has a better punchline than it has any right to. It looks colorful with great animation, and even if it's a preschool series it's thankfully one that's just about the adventures of both the titular bat vehicles and the actual Batman characters. This isn't like Cars where there aren't any humans around and they're cleverly able to make everyone coexist in a way that never feels out of place. It works as a good morning cartoon and a kiddo's introduction to the Batman universe besides the comics or the 90s animated series.

Number 9: We Baby Bears

I feel like we all need that one shows that's just for cute vibes to curb the stress and mental instability that intrudes on you when you get home from work or school. Being the spin-off prequel to We Bare Bears, while it can be pretty plain in terms of premises it's cute and whimsical on its own merits. It reminds me of Klonoa where we're hopping from world to world, sometimes there are familiar faces but otherwise, it's just about having fun with the different environments with characters I bet most gen ziggas will be familiar with. I say it was a good series to start off the year and while Cartoon Network's future feels too uncertain, I don't think a show like this is such a front on their MO. Plus, bears are awesome.

Number 8: Sonic Prime

The fact that Sonic the Hedgehog basically gave us its take on Robot Pirate Island was enough for me to like this, but Sonic Prime works well as a new series. Low on the list because for eight episodes, it wasn't as fulfilling especially when it felt like the SatAM show but not as tight since it's a multiverse story. Not that it isn't fun, this has more jovial energy to this that feels like a mesh between SatAM and The Adventures of Sonic. The animation I say is peak for a Sonic cartoon, imperfect but it looks like they're let loose with movement and expression. Plus again, we got the battle of Robot Pirate Island ending with a funny abrupt bodying from Shadow. Overall, hopeful part 2 ups the momentum because this and the Mario Movie really look like we might be eating well next year.

Number 7: The Cuphead Show!

Cuphead changed the way we game. With the DLC released this year as well, we seriously got a franchise that earned its keep. It felt natural that we'd get a cartoon, running alongside the recent Looney Tunes and Mickey Mouse short series as a great resurgence of the rubber-hose animation style. I'll say though that the episodes are great for this show, gets really going when Ms. Chalice joins for real, but it's scattershot in terms of actual banger episodes especially when the Devil makes for the best episodes with or without the porcelain trio. They at least end the 3rd season on a high note so whether we get more or not, this was overall satisfying and worth the wait.

Number 6: ONI, Thunder God's Tale

Really sucks this was talked about by nobody beyond the Goomba Got Back dude, whose video on it was cool. This was an incredibly made miniseries created by the same studios behind DOMO, Rilakkuma and Kaoru, and the cutscenes of most modern Sonic games. I love the plush and clay look of the characters and the environments are insanely beautiful. Storywise it's one where it starts strong and gets stronger with every part like episode two's ending was a gut punch and the blows kept coming after that. I loved this world of yokai and kami and it was an emotionally warm tale of family and self-actualization. Seriously recommend watching this at least once, subbed or dubbed since both are pretty good. So yeah, everybody that proclaims "animation is cinema", where the fuck were you?

Number 5: Scrat Tales

Would've been wrong to not put this on the list since it was the last thing Blue Sky made before Bob Chapek took the studio out back. Even if Blue Sky never closed, these shorts were great, taking me back to when Scrat was at his best in the earlier Ice Age films. The animation is especially great and it just makes me wish Blue Sky got to do more because this really showed they were good with slapstick comedy and improved after two decades. Needless to say, this miniseries and their final short was them going out on a high note, giving the best middle finger to Disney after they tried to revive the Ice Age franchise with the Buck Wild movie. If there was anything to credit about this year, it was taking the bad with the good.

Number 4: The Bob's Burgers Movie

This was surprisingly the year when I watched a lot of movies. Thankfully I'm not a filmbro (yet...) but I've really appreciated the time I made in actually going to the theaters more than once, so yeah Bobby's Bunger. I say it works on its own but it's definitely more for fans of the TV series and even then you probably have to see the season that came before this to have better context. Besides that, you're just enjoying the good vibes that come from the characters, the humor, the animation, and the pinch of musical numbers we get; Sunny Side Up Summer was legit an earworm banger. It overall works when you know the Belcher family because they carry this film.

Number 4 (2): Marcel the Shell with Shoes On

Mate, when it reached a certain scene involving a poem, I was practically choking back my tears. You'll know there's a later stop-motion higher ranked, but this was the 2022 film that personally cut deep. I didn't think a film about talking shells would resonate with me this well, but this existed as more than just Youtube short films extended into a movie. There is a story here about grief, comfort, being internet famous, and community that I feel wouldn't have worked without it being like this. It had that cold but good reminder of how small you can feel with a world you can only wish to grasp in increments; that change is inescapable but that doesn't mean you should take that negatively. It's hard being fearless, risque as you can be with your opinions and ideas, especially with uncertainty. This I say is a great Autumn movie, wonderful in making the seasonal vibe feel more comforting.

Number 3: Smiling Friends

Yeah, it's high on the list. If it wasn't, that means Egoraptor probably made it. To me, Smiling Friends has the enjoyable chaos of Superjail and Aqua Teen with the thematic sincerity of Venture Bros or King of the Hill. It's the most easy-going adult cartoon that yeah, is funny as shit and is funnier the more you know behind the scenes. I gotta appreciate that this is the one time when people from the internet hit the big time and it doesn't feel like forgettable compromised trash. I'll say the Brazil episode was not good, but this was the consistently best show Adult Swim provided in a long while.

Number 2: Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio

Del Toro never gave up on this and what we got was better than expected. There are a couple story problems but it's more than made up by being an amazing retelling of the Pinocchio tale. I never grew up with Pinocchio mind you, I only got familiar with the story this year since it was everywhere, but I wanna say this was as strong an interpretation as one could make. Better than Disney's take I say where it's purposefully not squeaky clean in appearance or atmosphere making its poignant emotional moments hit a little harder. Being Del Toro's first fully animated movie, it's up there with Fantastic Mr. Fox as a film I'd consider a masterpiece on the dedication craft alone.

Honorable Mentions: Entergalactic, Hamster & Gretel, Minions 2, The Amazing Maurice, Chickenhare, League of Super Pets, Super Giant Robot Brothers, Cars on the Road, Little Demon, Pantheon, Baymax!, Turning Red, and Zootopia+

Number 1: The Bad Guys/Puss in Boots, Last Wish

I'll say it, Dreamworks truly owned the W this year. The fact that two-for-two Dreamworks gave us the best vibes in terms of films like it was nothing has to be appreciated. I was already a fan of Puss in Boots, the film and cartoon series worked as the Zorro franchise we could've got. The Last Wish enhances that with not only literal stellar and dynamic action, no bad characters, but an actual reflective story for Puss, like if the 1st film and series were about him being responsible this sequel was about him being humble, especially in regard to his own mortality and pride. This isn't just a regular adventure like before, there is genuine emotional weight behind what happens to the characters. Just saying, we didn't just get a fierce red-eyed wolf for furry-lusting sake, but an actually intimidating force that owns every scene he's in. Feels like this film truly marks the twilight of where the studio wants to go with its projects and I'm worried but faithful. Oh yeah, and The Bad Guys?

I didn't grow up with the OG books like I did with Captain Underpants, but this film both blew my mind and made me go back to see that the books were good too. Objectively, Puss in Boots was the better film but this was my personal year-round favorite. The VIBES this had with basically every other scene had me just as happy as when I saw the Captain Underpants movie. The animation, the banter, Diane who is everything, and the banging tunes like Good Tonight and the opening with Kitchen Clean were the cleanest scenes I loved all year. If Puss in Boots 2 was the modern Zorro movie I always wanted, this was the American Lupin the 3rd movie I never knew I would get.

All in all, Dreamworks put its best foot forward, far more than expected especially compared to last year or Disney this year. If anything, I'm definitely noticing a slow shift where more animated projects are... footloose and yards away from trying to look realistic or copy-pasted. Not saying it'll all work (remember when theOdd1sOut made a cartoon?) but it has me as faithful as before in seeing worthwhile stuff come to fruition. Then again nothing this year truly stacked up to the

ACTUAL NUMBER 1: SLIPPIN' JIMMY

I'm talking about the Breaking Bad masterpiece that earned a Slipjimmillion dollars in ratings and views, baby! The streaming service superstar of 2022 nothing could top it. Not Bluey, not Better Call Saul, not The Simpsons, not your dad, nothing came close! Slippin' Jimmy is the future!

WITH ALL THAT SAID, HAVE A GOOD NEW YEAR!

Preschoolers Are Getting The Best Superhero Shows?

BW Media Spotlight is forced to explain that Preschoolers Are Getting The Best Superhero Shows?

I already know what some people reading this are going to say. I’ll be accused of not growing up, or having Peter Pan Syndrome, or some other crap. “You’re 50 years old (though you don’t look it)! Why are you watching superhero shows for five-year-olds? You should watch the stuff made for your age group and like it!” Oh, you mean the shows that never heard of primary colors or sunlight? The ones…

[matt0044]

So... been checking out BatWheels.

It's a very toyetic cartoon about Batman and his rogue's gallery with special vehicles for their escapades. Apparently, the Bat Computer is alive with a quirky robot sidekick called M.O.E. and utilizes copies of her motherboard to bring the five Bat vehicles to life.

Very TV-Y fair that's enjoyable if you're looking for a bit of fluff to unwind to and laugh with/at.

That said... I often snicker at the idea of Batman's darkest stories being translated into this Hasbro-esque pre-school show. I'm talking All-Star, I'm talking The Killing Joy, I'm talking Jason Todd's death, I'm talking even Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy.

Heck, imagine if they had Harley and Joker be an item in a most toxic relationship.

It's just so funny to puzzle out from a "this is a story that it woefully not for kids so how would they go about making a similar story for kids."

Heck, imagine other more darker villains getting vehicles like Solomon Grundy or Bane. XD

Buff is best boy. :)

[helpfandom]

Requests open, and new fandoms!

I will be adding Psycho 1960, and Batman - Arkham Asylum, City and Knight.

For anyone who may have missed the previous new fandoms, it was Batwheels, and yes, it may be a kids cartoon, but I don't care, Uglydolls, and Glitch Techs.

:D

This was supposed to be the Meisters' all going "MONEY?".

We have Pride Meister from "Think of Me", Speed Force Meister from the comics, my Meister, teen Meister from Batwheels and the original Meister from the cartoon.

Teen Meister is likely way too small here, he's supposed to be 15 or the like, but he looks like he's 10 here. XD

[aquamarine-dream-queen]

Batwheels premiered last fall! Can you imagine? It's about time we had a kid-friendly Batman series.

[cnschedulearchive]

September 2021. Maybe the biggest month I've ever had to report the schedules for ever.

CN started off interestingly by airing Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (before you ask, Turner has the cable rights to Star Wars movies thanks to a 2016 deal and we don't know when it expires) from 6p to... 9p! Yes, they ate into Adult Swim time. This wound up being a permanent move, cemented by what launched two weeks later. But before that, CN chose to air all the Star Wars movies, and by all of them I mean the originals, prequels, and Rogue One. To fans, those may as well be the only ones anyway.

Then came the big week: Cartoonito finally launched, and it was 8 hours long on weekdays, 2 hours long on weekends. Look at it now: 1.5 hours on weekdays, 0 hours on weekends. To say they came out boldly and brashly is an understatement. I really wonder if they should have considered coming out a little smaller than this. They had no originals of their own yet, the "flagships" like Batwheels and Bugs Bunny Builders would take another year to come out. Note that almost all of the shows on this lineup have since been purged, save for Thomas and Baby Looney Tunes.

Also launched that week was ACME Night, Cartoon Network's excuse for taking the 8p hour away from Adult Swim on Sunday nights. This block's core component is airing big blockbuster movies, either TV-PG or TV-14, with basically the same level of minimal censorship as you'd get on TBS or TNT. It's real interesting what they choose to air here sometimes. Also interesting at launch was their filler choice. Rogue One actually had some filler in the form of TBS' The Cube, something you'll see get slotted in again week 3. Week 1 however, had Family Matters! There was a Steve Urkel Christmas movie in the works for this block... was. There was a few original things planned for this block... was.

Cartoon Network itself, shrunk down to just 6 hours on weekdays, continued to coast along. They started airing Jellystone. Plus they got 8p back at the end of the month, as was tradition.

Adult Swim also had a equally big month: Family Guy left the network after 18 years. Left with the iconic Stewie mpreg episode and a nice little farewell bump. The ramifications of Adult Swim's biggest safest schedule bet leaving wouldn't start creeping in until a month later, but for now we sure got an interesting shakeup in the lineup due to it going.

For the one week between Family Guy leaving and Adult Swim still having 8p, they aired Joe Pera in the hour, which you can never complain about that. More originals got more timeslots (also, should be noted, Tender Touches is rerunning in full for the first time ever), while Teenage Euthanasia made its premiere. Pete Smith Day was celebrated in a condensed 2 hour format for the first time, with just Brak and the bumps, I assume Bob's is too valuable now to be sacrificed for the rest of the week's schedule in favor of a marathon.
