God, this is going to be the prefect replacement for the Boondocks once season 3 is done.

I was wondering what these concepts were for when he updated 2 weeks ago.
Guess I should go watch the movie then.
-
Trust me, the movie is worth seeing. It fricken awesome.
-
Oh fucking wow…
-
Really now?
Lets hope they can actually follow an act like the movie cause it was awesome.
-
Man Adult Swim just put they ankles in it.
-
This could be either godly or really godly.

I'm with The Dude on this one. I can't forsee this working as a series…

@The:

Totally agreed. It will most likely be doomed like most animated series based off of a movie.
-
I'm still waiting for my Major Lazer cartoon.
-
-
To be fair, Transformers was a cartoon before it was a movie, so that's a different case.
-
@robbybedfart:
The Men in Black series was better than its movie.
Transformers cartoons are better than their movie.
Batman the animated series was god tier better than its movie.
Thus why I said "most." And all of those are great examples, though no Transformers cartoon was based off of the movies, neither was Batman, though it took some elements from the Burton movies.

http://kse332.deviantart.com/#/d2pift0Thank you. At least the art will be good. Also, I've finally confirmed my suspicion that the character designer for The Boondocks did Jackie Chan Adventures as well. Surprised to find out he did The Batman though, never made the connection.

I hope this lead into a tie in product for the show for anaconda malt liquor.

Surely you understand that there's difference between a movie adaption of a cartoon series and a cartoon series adaption of a movie. No matter which comes first it always sets the standards for the fandom it creates.
I must admit though that I have no idea what came first for MiB, the movie or the cartoon series so I might be using that one series incorrectly here. But the point should still stand.

Some news about the Black Dynamite the animated series is going reveal at the New York Comic con on October 9th. According to the official Black Dynamite facebook page.

i actually agree with this.
and men in black was based on a comic, then came the movie, then the cartoon show.

Oh god, I hope this doesn't mean we're gonna get more of those subtle Aaron McGruder-style morals of the day in this one, too...
Some of the moral ones were pretty good though, McGruder just started being a lot less subtle. Especially seeing as how some of the people who needed to hear and understand it cough black people cough didn't even get the point of the Martin Luther King jr. episode.
…. I'm looking at you Al Sharpton. :getlost:
This show can't be worse than double dragon, so there's a bright side.
-
As long as Kim is one of the storyboard artist, this will be entertaining to watch. I don't understand the whole comparison with Boondocks that was bought up in this topic though. Different source material. Different writers. Different show.
The Black Dynamite movie itself has enough to warrent an animated series. Druglords, Kung Fu, Kung Fu Island, corrupted authority, messed up main-cast kill offs, randomness…. The only element that may go missing is the oldschool camera style. The music could make up for it however.
-
More new screenshots for the cartoon.
-
this looks great and full of win. I love the style of animation they chose. can't wait
-
On Adult Swim, Sunday Night during the new episode of Venture Bros. They mention the Black Dynamite cartoon series will be starting in Febuary on Adult Swim.
-
Long wait but I have another reason to live till 2011. Lovely style.
-
I hate to name drop, but I'm a friend of Michael's I have to ask him about this. He better be voicing this cartoon. Those little teasers looked pretty funny.
-
New News about the show.

-
So is it made by the same animation team that worked on the Boondocks? Because I'm seeing some similarities in the art style.
-
"I used to be a children"
Oh my god, something I have in common with Black Dynamite. I can die happy.
Who exactly is Mumbo?
It's OFFICIAL, UsoppXNami 4ever.
-
The pilot was just awesome. I can't wait for more.
-
@Sonic:
"I used to be a children"
Best line in the pilot hands down.
I'll be realistic and accept that nothing (except a proper sequel) could ever live up to the movie.
So with that in mind… I really enjoyed the pilot. Entertaining!
-
can't wait to see more. that pimp frog kurtis was the best villlian ever.
-
Watching it now. Been looking forward to this for a long time O___________O
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Fantastic. I can see Kim's story-boarding style in several shots but it's seems like a completely different animation studio than the one that did Boondocks. Sweet stuff.
The shading style is like a comic book. Reminds me of Dead Leaves, only smoother. I doubt every episode would look like this, but hell... Fucking sweet. I can't wait for more.
As for the plot, it's kinda of a downer... Especially for a pilot ep. I was hoping to see a villain from the movie, but I guess I can wait.
-
That pilot was awesome :D
It has nice animation and great action scenes,and voice acting(with the characters played by there movie actors)
I can't wait to see more episodes -
I watched it… 3 more times.
-
Why do they call him Black Dynamite?
! Because he's explosive in tight places.
Awesome cartoon is awesome.
-
The pilot was pretty funny. Especially all of it.
-
Ribbit. Ribbit. Ribbit.
-
Black Dynamite the animated series is starting in July. Can't wait for it.
-
Black Dyanmite the animted series starts on July 15th at 11:30 pm est, 10:30 pm central.
-
New trailer for the show.
http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/22/watch-the-black-dynamite-animated-series-trailer
-
Hope it doesn't end up like the Osmosis Jones cartoon spinoff…
if I recall that started with Frank, but as like a stinky old man sat all alone and shiz or something.
I mean cmon.
WHY'D THEY DO THAT?!
One does not simply have an Osmosis Jones without a Thrax. -
With Thrax being killed off in the movie having him in the series in spite of that wouldve been like having Jafar in the Aladdin TV series in spite him and his lamp being destroyed in ROTJ. Though when it boils down to it the Osmosis Jones series was largely unnecessary.
-
Tomorrow night is the Season premiere of Black Dynamite!!! Can't Wait for it.
-
And it begins.
"Ninja, please."
