"Marvel's Avengers Assemble" News & Discussion Thread, Part 4 (Spoilers)

[Magmaster12]

It's pretty clear that both series are not in the same continuity. For a change Wacker didn't give his usual BS spin answer and pretty much ackowledge what most of us knewfrom the jump, that A:EMH and AA are 2 separate shows set in their own separate continuity.

I don't want it to be connected because fans are lazy.

That's pretty stupid reasoning, he can't just bring the massive plot holes.

That's not exactly what he said or meant. Here is his full quote.

Answer

I’m leaving that up to the fans to decide if it can all fit. Historically dedicated Marvel fans have always worked extra hard to see if everything we do can all jibe into one timeline.

For my part, I consider EMH a separate entity. I think it’s important not to have your current series dependent on a show from several years ago that the audience might not be able to find.

I want all of our shows to be able to be understood by a human who might not have 47 hours to commit to catching up. I felt the same way about the comics i edited.

He's pretty much admitting that the 2 shows aren't a part of the same continuity, but he's doing so by specifically saying that he see the 2 shows as separate entity's. Which is a slick way of confirming what we all knew, but without contradicting his boss Loeb.

This is a minor artistic nitpick of mine, as an artist myself and from looking at character designer Jerome K. Moore's work for Young Justice.....but what is up with those philtrums drawn on every characters' face? Isn't that like a big "no-no" for artists? It's really distracting for one thing. Not necessarily needed either.

(For those who don't know what a philtrum is.)

Spoiler

philtrum; plural noun: philtrums

• the vertical groove between the base of the nose and the border of the upper lip.

This show and Hulk and the Agents of Smash have an incredibly notable habit of being animated like it's a comic.

Which is one of (several) reasons why both shows suck. This is what happens when you put people who know little or nothing about animation in charge of the animation division.

Exactly what I said about the last episode, it was crap.

The are two Avenger films two films for the infinity stones story

And the animation as well I hate the animation.

100% agree.

Ditto for me. That video nailed everything that is wrong with AA.

Little info from Stephen Wacker about the show's second half cause that's when he was involved

I think it helps that I know the players involved. I know where to find Nick Lowe when he’s not in the office, or any of the editors working the scene. But I think the relationship is growing more and more. Spider-Verse was the first step, and I think as we get deeper into Avengers, you’ll see how we’re playing off of the actual comics’ history. We’ve even had Mark Waid and Tom Brevoort out for a couple of summits

 

[Magmaster12]

Well I've now seen Mark Waid's name now I'm interested, you better not brake my heart Wacker!

 

[Dustellar]

Mark Waid?? oh yeah!! he really loves Hank Pym... now I have hope that Hank will appear!!

 

[spyke]

Mark Waid?? oh yeah!! he really loves Hank Pym... now I have hope that Hank will appear!!

If Hank appears, he will most likely be an old man like his movie counterpart. Waid being involved won't stop Marvel's current policy of corporate synergy with the movies.

Teen Titans gets the voice switching thing down better than Avengers Assemble has: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z16AUT05XY

Can someone tell me why they can't do this the next time we have personalities switched around? This was more entertaining than about an hour of Avengers Assemble's shenanigans with similar subject matter.

Because the House of Marvel Animation that Loeb and Quesada wrecked (a) think that pre-teen kids are dumb and are not deserving of quality animated TV shows and (b) are too creatively lazy to put a twist on cliche and outdated animated storytelling techniques and conventions from the 60's,70's,and 80's.

Overreacting a bit, aren't we?

Not sure why this was not posted already but i found the below April airing information on Toonzone: These will mark the involvement of Stephen Wacker. For me this is the last chance i am giving this show.

Sun Apr 12 - 8:30 am - 214 - Crack in the System
Sun Apr 19 - 8:30 am - 215 - Avengers Disassembled
Sun Apr 26 - 8:30 am - 216 - Small Time Heroes

If it still sucks and still suffers from the bad writing of previous episodes then i am done with it

Based on the titles, I can deduce that this is most likely a three part Ultron arc:

Crack in the System: Ultron infiltrates Avengers Tower and finds weaknesses in the team to exploit.
Avengers Disassembled: Infighting caused by Ultron's machinations in the previous episode tear the team apart.
Small Time Heroes: Ant-Man helps the Avengers shrink down to microscopic size and enter Ultron to deactivate him.

I feel like they're kinda spoiling stuff from the movie verse even if its tweaked.

 

[dmxx116]

This show can never do anything on it own and that turrible.

 

[spyke]

Overreacting a bit, aren't we?

Nope. Just look at most of the "all ages" MARVEL ADVENTURES line of books that Marvel put out if you don't believe me. Heck, Quesada (and apparently, Loeb as well) doesn't even know what "all ages" means. Quesada has said that comics were never aimed at 8 year old kids and that the Code approved all ages DARK PHOENIX SAGA was not an all ages comic. Statements like that and the type of "all ages" comics and cartoons that have been put out under Quesada (and Loeb) leads me to believe that my statement is both justified and accurate.
