Motorcity

Hadn't seen a specific thread on it. First episode of this new series from the Megas XLR guys is now on iTunes for free and formally premieres on Disney XD on the 30th.

It's done by the XLR guys? Okay, now I'm interested.

The Synopsis reminds me of Right-wing anti-enviromentalist propaganda

Holy cookies, it's out already? I hadn't even seen any images yet.

That was 21 minutes of insanity and colorful lights. And it's awesome.

Got a stub of an article going

O_O

Downloading this from itunes. NOW.

I've seen trailers for it. Wasn't interested in it at all...until you said it's made by the Megas XLR guys. Now...

Looks like a Gorillaz music video.

And it's animated by Titmouse, with a lot of the same team from Superjail!

...titmouse.

I know. -snerk-

i thought the trailer lookes pretty damn cool tbh. def gonna check it out.

The action in this is surprisingly awesome. We get to see Goat, or an expy of him anyway, and the theme song is done by Brandon Small. I also think Julie is pretty cool.

It ain't the most creative show, but it's a lot of fun.

Also, dat soundtrack.

Oh. Brandan Small again. -throws hands up in the air-

Wow. This show looks AMAZING! Then again, I should expect nothing less from Chris Prynoski, the guy who directed the hallucination sequence in Beavis and Butthead Do America. I do admit that the story and characters are cliche but as long as it is enjoyable, I can overlook that.

Has anyone else seen the first episode?

It's free on iTunes, last I checked.

Noice. This show has promise, and the animation is INCREDIBLE. Flash artists, we must step up our game!

But it still has all the elements that make a horrible Disney boy's show: cliche character archetypes, and a promising premise that's built under a storyline executed in the most mundane way possible. I may just be growing up. At least it doesn't have a forced studio audience laugh track, or over-acting trying to pass as Comedy Gold.

saw the first episode. badass as hell

Digging the art style but the story was generic. Could improve over time though.

Yeah it reeked of Pilotitis.

Yeah. Pilot/1st eps usually are the blandest. And I think you may have just invented a new trope for this place.

I think I saw this trope but with another title.

well that was awesome. love the whole style. cant really get over the black guy being voiced by kel mitchel. i cant take him seriously at all.
