Could a new Inspector Gadget series work today?
>>155405916If it's good, of course
What do you mean?2D or 3D?
brown bricks
>>155406010They already tried it with this shit and it didn't work, I guess it didn't help that gadget is a violent retard in all episodes
>>155406586I'm more bothered by how ugly the CGI is. Penny's eyes look like she has no soul, and Brain almost looks like he belongs in Video Brinquedo films.
>>155405916DiC has been rolling out a new Gadget show like every 7 yeas for the last 3 decades. None of them ever seem to get the same level of popularity as the first one.
>>155406711I wasn't even aware DiC still existed
>>155406615Really it's the pure and total lack of a background that gets me. These CGI worlds always feel so empty and like the setting is too big for the characters. Got kind of a toy play set vibe.
>>155406727that's generally because they don't want to model an urban environment where the original show usually took place. it's the same thing as webcomic artists who just draw their characters standing in a weird grassy field.
>>155405916It barely worked back then. it relied on you being a little kid and not knowing things could be better.>>155406756it's weird how long it took me to realize that you're allowed to draw a background once in a comic, as an establishing shot, and then do blank backgrounds (or visual effects or whatever) for the dialogue scenes back and forth zoomed in on heads, hand gestures, etc.When you don't have to draw it every panel, doing higher quality backgrounds becomes a lot more viable.
Kids don't watch cartoons anymore so no.
>>155406756Meanwhile in Witch Detectives they built a whole city anon's been making a map of.

It really plays with the way the brain is happy to fill things in. I do like me some tables and background elements but you can get away with a lot if you're crafty even if you only add a few details.
>>155405916You'd need to make it an action series first, comedy second.
>>155407424aren't most of the gadget cases solved by him fucking up in stupid ways
>>155406010The Inspector Gadget timeline is getting more complex than the Halloween one. You've got the original Inspector Gadget series. Then the standalone live-action movies which are their own continuity. Then Gadget and the Gadgetinis, which is a sequel to the OG Inspector Gadget where he becomes Lieutenant Gadget. And, finally, there's the 2015 Inspector Gadget which ignores Gadgetinis and is its own, alternate sequel to the OG series. Gadget's still an inspector, Brain's still around but Penny's old enough to become an HQ agent herself. Oh, and Doctor Claw still has only been officially revealed via a toy and two video games (SNES & mobile phone). Never seen his mug in the TV shows.
>Go Go Gadget I like your teeth
>>155407489you'd think his face would be half melted off with the way his voice sounds. this design doesn't seem like it would sound any different than the "nyaa, now I'll get you" snidely whiplash archtype.
>>155407490>go go gadget "my head is now forever a bone"
only if you let the japanese adapt it into a shounen anime where he calls out all his attacks prefixed with "go go gadget..."
>>155405916Make him actually competent, and I'll think about it.
With Disney currently working on a new live action movie there will probably be a new show trying to cash in on it.
>>155407638he should have moments of competence when it matters
>>155407489>finally, there's the 2015 Inspector Gadget which ignores Gadgetinis and is its own, alternate sequel to the OG seriesIt's even more specific than that, it branches off an episode in the later half of S1, so for example corporal capeman was never a thing
>>155405916I don't think so, every rendition after the 80s cartoons have been bad. I'd just stick to re-watching the classics
>>155408669Nah Gadgetini was pretty good
>>155407489What about the two shows where he was a little kid with an adult partner?
