WHY DO NEW cartoons look like they were made on ADOBE FLASH?

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

Is it just me or do most of these new cartoons look like they were made on adobe flash?

look at how stylistic older cartoons were...











now lets compare them to the modern day versions that look like flash animations











yes the new cartoons look sharper, but the flat colour, the adobe flash animation look is terrible.

Because they are made on the computer.

not sure if thats the reason,

dc animated movies are made on computer and look great
so because they're made on computer they're devoid of shading? and can only be flat colour?

It's not necessarily the technology, it's that today's animation supervisors/directors are obsessed with being as on-model as possible as opposed to expressiveness, and the advanced computer technology makes it easier to do so. As a result, a lot of shyt is flat, even though it's polished. The Simpsons intro is a prime example:

very interesting, i think the last cartoon i liked the look of was boondocks.

In the right hands, computer animation objectively blows cel animation completely out the water. But a lot of today's animation directors and shyt lack imagination...the relative ease of computer tech makes them lazy and complacent.

I heard its cheaper to do that

More about the money than for the sake of art

The first couple of arcs had some duds because of the atrocious schedule but the last 2 arcs have been full of piff:

Wait, did you really post footage from Spider-Man the Animated series as an example of good animation? The animation on that show was fukking trash.

The New Adventures of Batman had solid animation, they just changed the art style to the one used by the show runner Bruce Timm and to better integrate it with Superman at the wider DCAU.

breh you musta lost all factions of your mind

for the 90's it was amazing, had spiderman zipping thru a 3d manhattan, also the actual art is amazing even now, and the animation is just fine.

Nah, go back and watch it. A lotta recycled cuts, assy artwork and jerky animation. Not to mention all of the times they artificially sped things up.

I'm a fan of old school animations. This new shyt lacks soul imo.

The art style was fine, but the animation was trash. They reused the same shyt over and over again. There's like one explosion in particular that they used in every other episode. Then they had those slowed down or sped up reaction animations.

Because these animators are garbage even with the computers they cutting corners and going for cheap shyt..
