"Iron Man & Captain America: Heroes United" Feature Talkback (Spoilers)

[JoeMabbon]

Just watched it on Netflix. The animation looked like a cutscene from the mid aughts. I'm really not looking forward to the inevitable CGI Marvel cartoon, especially if its going to look like this...

The story wasn't very interesting and Cap/Stark conflict is starting to get stale. How about some new team-ups? Can we get Cap/Hawkeye or Iron Man/Widow?

Okay, I get the problem.

The animation sucks.

Normally I am not the cartoon fan who believes stories should live and die by the animation. A solid enough story can make anything work. But this isn't a solid story. It's pretty good though, and would acceptable for a Marvel cartoon with even slightly decent animation, and it's not appreciably worse than any of Marvel's current television output.

It's just that the animation is so bad that it's distracting, and there is no part of the movie I can sit back and enjoy while the computer effects are such an eyesore. The project was clearly half-finished, and it looks completely unprofessional. Maybe my outlook that great animation is not essential to a story is flawed. In this kind of story, great animation is everything and will make or break the project.

This project was broken. *.
