[up] I like the idea of it being a subtle "Sit tight" message from Timm himself.

With the time it takes to make animated shows, wouldn't that scene have been made prior to learning of the cancellation?

Not necessarily. Production would have started before the failure of the movie, and after that the writing was probably on the walls.

From what I've heard many animated shows have their episodes done within a few weeks of their air-date.

I imagine the series was finished during that long-ass hiatus.

I dunno both YJ and GLATS had a major "we better tie together lose ends quickly" endings. Granted they were likely informed of the cancellation/chance of cancelation before we were and just NDA'd.

But who the fuck are SMGO? Why should Cartoon Network care what they think?

Never trust anyone who uses "degenerate" as an insult.

I don't know, but they are important enough to get a meeting with the head honchos.

[up][up]Because the WB might care what they think, and the WB are Cartoon Networks boss. Plus it seems like it might be something that was founded by studios or with influence of studios; how else does a small start-up get a confirmed audience with studio heads.

I personally think it might be the studios trying to get in on this crowdfunding action. Kinda like the Veronica Mars kickstarter but without the fees and with ad revenue, though that could be a double edged sword:

So, latest update from smgo.tv says that Warner Bros. said "no", since they don't believe the goals can be met.

Honestly, it's not surprising, but still disappointing to hear. sad

[up]That just seems like a polite way of saying "We don't see Green Lantern as a viable franchise right now", to me.

What's the trope for death of a franchise in the ham fisted grip of a movie director?

Giancarlo Volpe was interviewed in this podcast and talks about some more plans for season two. Skip to around 38-39 to listen to them.

The whole interview is pretty interesting, though. Talks about the state of animation in general, etc.

Could this mean the possibility of the return of DC nation?

Well, I managed to finish the show on Netflix before it leaves on the 30th.

Goddang it, CN! Why did you drop the axe on this awesome show?!

I mean, come on! There's still so much stuff to go on!

  • Razer becoming a Blue Lantern!
  • John Stewart getting a name drop!
  • The potential return of Aya after her Redemption Equals Death phase!
  • Carol Ferris keeping the Star Sapphire ring!
  • No Yellow Lanterns? Even though they established Sinestro?!

Pfffft. "Didn't sell enough toys" my eye! Those guys just had very little faith obviously! Seriously, revive it on [adult swim] or something! I just want to see more of this!

Goddang CN conformists.
