Why did this never get greenlit, again?
>>153024633wrong time, something something cost cutting and new management
>>153024633Pitch carried by expensive gimmick concept rather than character and story IP quality. They bought it for an effective, cheap web campaign instead of a bad, over budget cartoon but didn’t tell the creator that was the intention.
No one realizes how much of a logistical nightmare this crossover projects are. Even if these are all IPs legally owned by the same company it's still a lot of shit to plan out. It's just not worth the effort for a creepypasta-tier show whose only definining feature would be the Warner Seal of Approval™.
too autistic
>>153024886>No one realizes how much of a logistical nightmare this crossover projects are.So much thisPeople don't recall that KH 3 took almost a complete decade to be finished, and that was just working with Disney (Nomura autism not helping things either), Warner Bros just hadn't the manpower or faith in the project to give it the greenlight and resources it demands
>>153024633Why should it? What exactly about this concept is impressive from a creative standpoint? Pibby as a character has an unremarkable character design, and her entire personality can be boiled down to "Dora Parody". Aside from that, we just have this literal who faggot coopting other people's characters for his retarded fanfic. It's an embarrassing display of both hubris and disrespect for the medium. Anyone who wanted to see this should be drug out into the street and shot.
>>153024633Only way I could see this working if they made most or even all of the properties à la Channel Chasers instead.
>>153024633>Pibby
Dodge status? Is he still depressed?
>>153025325I have no idea what the fuck is he doing now but he's doing Magic The Gathering "Magic Token" art now
>>153025383anon did you have a stroke writing that post
>>153024633Even if it got greenlit somehow I doubt they would've be allowed to use cartoon network and adult swim characters at all let alone characters from different companies like those from nickelodeon and anime.
/co/ always has a knee-jerk reaction whenever pibby is mentioned
>>153024633The trailer spoiled the whole story
>>153024633>Why don't they greenlit the show with Cartoon Network charactes, most of which are target at kids, getting murdered and tortured?Look up what branding is, there's your answer. Having it air on adult swim isn't enough to justify gore and shit.>INB4 Samurai JackSJ is a whole different beast and you know it.
>>153024633It's a stupid show idea with way too many hurdles for it to be worth it.
didn't this turn out to be an fnf mod?
>>153024633It was a done deal until the merger fucked everything up. It got lost in the shuffle.
>>153026086that was its lasting legacy after all, rather sad
>>153024633It's not Teen Titans Go, so merchandising potential is too low.
>>153024633It was ass, that's why.
>>153024633I guess Adult Swim thought the crossover thing was tacky. But for me personally it would’ve been cool as fuck, /co/ needs to learn to have fun. I imagine it could’ve been like a miniseries or something. The show also had concept art of Courage being killed and Yosemite Sam being this evil infected monster. The characters being evil and crossover stuff was the appeal.
>"Why won't the show built entirely off other IPs and will be a legal nightmare ever get made?!"I don't fucking know, it will be a mystery forever.
>>153028955The concept didn’t seem to have the legs for a show but it would make fun interstitials
>>153028955The issue is those very things are what make people back away from Pibby since it feels "too edgy" and a grave lack of self-awareness.I mean, the average WB watcher hears that there is miniseries crossover featuring beloved and recognizable characters in a scenario they weren't made for at all so of course they will check it out to see what the buzz is about and then BAM they're meet with out of character moments and at first glace tasteless shock value.>You wanted to see Mordecai and Rigby do a funny or cool thing? Sorry, but Cai is literally eating glitchy shit and dying while Rig is watching in despair.It might not been Dodge's intention, but that is what it looks to regular people and executives.
Creator is a faggot and I have no sympathy for him. Why not create your own characters instead of stealing from others? Oh right. That would require creativity, which you don't have. What a talentless hack.
>>153024633If Kingdom Hearts 1 was pitched now it would suffer the same way that Pibby did
>>153024886>Even if these are all IPs legally owned by the same company it's still a lot of shit to plan outYeah, you still need to deal with a lot of shit inside with people that will put up red tape if they think it might harm the brand, if they think there's better picks for more product synergy, whether some characters have other people that hold some level of right of first refusal, and then some people that just manage to still be protective of their characters within the company and are in the position to refuse signing off on things. This was very publicly acknowledged when OK KO Crossover Nexus wasn't even able to secure all of the Teen Titans to use for some reason, and was reinforced by the issues surrounding Multiversus.
>>153025105Yeah, it's crazy that people were excited for it when the trailer--not anything else about the leaked storyboards or whatever set things up--but the trailer itself showed that the meat of the show under the substance was gonna be all "how are a bunch of unlikely and goober characters like us gonna stand up to something that's consuming the world"And by god if that isn't the most shallow and cliche garbage on the planet, although I imagine some of them are retarded enough to think "well that's part of the bit, that it's a kid's show plot and they're kid's show characters!!!!" Like no, this shit is just ass.
>the pibby /co/ kneejerk reaction in question:
>>153025105>Unremarkable character designYeah...no.
>>153029275No... yeah
>>153024633it's warner brothers 2020s equivalent to loonatics
>>153029288Pibby has a fuckable design. If you can't see that for what it's worth...I don't know, you're lost.
>>153029344>Pibby has a fuckable design.Must be an adquired taste, since Gameoverse has the more "fuckable" design.
>>153029344Her base body is a weakly formed blue blob with no extremities on her limbs, and a purple wig slapped on her geometrically basic head. It's barely above stick figure levels of design. A literal first grader could do better.
>>153024633I assume they just couldn't get enough property owners to agree to be in it.
>>153026423so now it's basically adult swim's fnf mod?
