"DC Nation" Programming News & Discussion, Part 2 (Spoilers)

[BigFatHairyDeal]

LOL "Tear Gas." Reminds me of when the DBZ dub would add "Root" to the beer signs. Darkwing Duck would be proud.

Looks like Chris Drake scored the "Strange Days" short.

When I saw the overview of images from "Strange Days", I couldn't help but notice that the 'strange giant' looks a bit like TNBA Scarecrow. It's more than likely a coincidence though - clicking on the images featuring the giant, it's clear that he's not the Scarecrow.

On second thought, considering the 1930s/1940s B&W theme, the monster does bear a passing resemblance to the Creeper, portrayed by Rondo Hatton, from House of Horrors and The Brute Man.

Another representative from Cartoon Network passed this statement over to me when asked if DC Nation is "no more":

As you've probably seen, our schedule has been undergoing changes - for example, Adult Swim now starts at 8p. [We] don't want to say that it's "no more," but as you are aware it was only Teen Titans Go! replays recently. Having the shorts on Wednesday night during premiere episodes will expose them to a whole different group of viewers - and [we're] really excited about that! Stay tuned for more updates as they become available!

Comments?

Beginning next Wednesday, we'll rename and relaunch the "DC Nation" and discussion thread talkbacks in a slightly revised format to match with the new status quo.

They just don't want to admit they have given up on DC Nation. They screwed with it in the first place, but when you consider how they have driven TTG! into the ground......!

 

[DonkeyKongSong]

If they're running them after/during Teen Titans Go!, then the April 16 episodes should be around 6pm. There's a special schedule that night with NinjaGo taking over that timeslot, but TTGo! will still air at 6pm (they're pre-empting Johnny Test and Steven Universe instead).

That statement isn't telling at all...

We all saw this coming right? At least the shorts will air in a higher profile slot.

Here's a short clip, along with the small interview with Bruce Timm:

Remember, It airs tomorrow after a new episode of Teen Titans Go! on Cartoon Network... although I'm sure WB/DC will upload it online as they did for Superman 75.

That was a treat getting to see some of the storyboards and hear a bit from Timm about working on the fog.

Very nice, thanks for sharing the video. Does anyone know who's voicing Batman?

No, that has not been revealed.

 

[James Harvey]

Just to confirm, Kevin Conroy will be providing the voice of Batman in the Batman: Strange Nights DC Nation animated short, airing tonight attached to a new episode of Teen Titans Go! at 6:30 (ET/PT) on Cartoon Network.

YES!

It couldn't have been anybody else. As I said, it just looked like Conroy Bats.

Is there any information about the Batman Beyond short?

Go to the first post on the first page of this thread, scroll down to "10)", click on the 'Show' button, scroll down to the bottom and that's all the information on the Batman Beyond short, unfortunately.

 

[Hero Supreme]

The Batman Beyond short is listed for April 23rd!

Cool. Makes sense it would be on the 23rd, since they are showing the short first at Wonder Con on the 19th. Though, thinking back to Batman: The Brave and The Bold, it is ironic this week's Green Arrow short has gotten no mention or press.

I was thinking the same thing, and now with out the Sunday encore, if you miss it, who knows if you will ever see it again. At least I will being enjoying a double dose of Green Arrow tonight.

 

[Gold Guy]

Hey, thats cool, only a week away! I can't wait for some Batman Beyond goodness!

That looks pretty awesome. Looking forward to seeing it in full next week.

Also pretty excited about tonight's Green Arrow short - wonder how many of these GA shorts were made.
