The Collywobbles

This is definitely a James Gunn show. You can't confuse it with anything else. All his crazy ideas, music taste and his style overall are found in this series. The first episode, called "The Collywobbles", is really good. The animation style looks great.

The episode starts with Amanda Waller talking with Rick Flag Sr. About a situation in Pokolistan. Circe, an Amazon sorceress from Themyscira wants to assassinate the princess of Pokolistan, Illana Rostovic. Waller creates a new team consisting of "non-humans" because A. R. G. U. S. Has forbidden her making another task force with humans. Task Force M (M for monster) is assigned to protect princess Illana.

It's a great start to the new DCU and it does feel like a James Gunn project (and that's good).

Also, note that there's a nude scene in this episode. No frontal nudity shown. One character tries to seduce another.

Probably the worst animated project in DC in the last 20 years probaly???

DC animated films were always a blast and perhaps achieved a style and storytelling worth from the level of comics in a great way of introducing classic stories to the big public and from a generation that grew up watching Justice League and Batman peak animation shows this Creature Commandos was a dissatisfaction.

Firstly James Gunn recycled the overused already Suicide Squad format again again and again here and where is the fun to see the same archetype from two films and some pretty good animated projetcs. And for a first in a new highly anticipated DC that was a slow start.

In retrospect DC has a legacy in animated films and stories and this looks worse than maybe the 90s and 2000s features in sense of creative and narrative choices.

James Gunn's continued casting of his brother (no matter how important or annoying). Like you don't need to add him in everything, it's just pointless. Weasel is beyond annoying, that liberal silence would have achieved more.

I can't wait for him to be cast as Batman or The Flash. Weasel gets more screen time, than almost any other character. The gag only goes so far, especially after you brush past a character like Rick Flagg! You could've given him a cameo and that would've been awesome. But Nooo, just force Sean Gunn down our throats.

Is there a better way to solve this conundrum, like use your connections and help him get his own acting credits. Or has that been tried and that's why we're here in this vicious loophole. Just throw him some money and improve your overall product. Word of advice, your audience can only take so much till your audience turns on you.

The introduction to the new DC Universe (DCU) has been executed remarkably well. The stories seamlessly connect to the past while also promising an exciting future. I want to commend the art style of the animation chosen by the creators; it has a comic feel that captivates the audience. The new storylines that James Gunn has brought forward for comic book lovers and DC fans are impressive and offer a lot of potential moving forward. The characters stand out as unique yet relatable.

That being said, I do feel the DCU is on the right track, although there are a few aspects I'm not fond of. One of my main concerns is the music-it feels repetitive at times, especially given the limited 20-minute runtime of each episode. I'd also love to see more attention paid to the choreography of the fight scenes and further development of the art style. Additionally, making it an adult-oriented show doesn't automatically enhance its quality. These are just a few points to consider.

The first episode is a decent start, the animation is impressive, although the characters are just being introduced, but Rick Flag Sr is quite tough and charismatic somewhat removed from his son's personality, it has The Suicide Squad vibes with some humor , blood, very good and well animated action. Although to be an introduction to the New DCU it is something decent, not impressive but it still achieves its purpose, to entertain, as I had said before, the animation is its strongest point being very colorful which I say as something positive, although in itself not I laughed at his humor, it's okay, it's not bad humor or good.
