Here’s the next question: how long could you ride that for? Because with V3, and other things I’ve heard behind the scenes, they seemed to really get away from that premise, even if Monty stayed alive.
Not much longer than three seasons methinks, but the question was "could RWBY have been good?" to which the answer is yes.
You’re not wrong.
The show was already falling apart at the seams long before volume 3. You had a showrunner adding things to the story without going through the writers first, so Monty's autism had no filters instead of a bad one. The two lead writers were meant to be wrangling said showrunner while neither were really up to the task, and then you add in that none of them had taken a single second to set the rules of the universe before getting into it. You have a recipe for disaster.
They planned to break away from the premise as early as Volume 2 (you ever wonder why the Breach was hastily resolved despite all the tension it built up? Yeah, that) but decided to split into Volume 3.
I remember hearing that. Hence my question of how long they could run on being mainly anime high school hijinks mixed with monster of the week, even if Monty hadn't died.
How long could RT have done it for? Not long, if at all. How long could an actually competent team have done it? I think at least 5 seasons.
Lol, this won't happen. And if it does, I can guarantee you that will make this shitshow look great with that nostalgia hindsight sheen.
You misread the recipe. It's a bare dash of everything else and a full load of Avatar for a 10 to 90 mixture.
I said it's unlikely to happen from my first post on the point. The point is that RT is in such a bad position that it would be better for it, at least on paper, for the animation department to be a part of a company that can manage it more effecitvely.
Now you’re making me think about RWBY characters in the Injustice series. Wouldn’t be surprised if RT tried to make it happen.
It wouldn't be the first time that the Justice League and RWBY crossed over. Never read the crossover though.
You should
If that is the case, then I cannot wait for his thread in the main board.
I mean, isn’t the meme of Batman is that he’s crazy prepared for every situation and can kick anyone’s ass…because he’s Batman? What would make Batman in RWBY that massive of a departure?
I don't know, living in a world where some people are born with the ability to turn to atoms, getting stronger through pain, or whatever the fuck it is Neo does, and being told your version of that is autism must be a real kick in the pants.
But his autism is unrivaled, and powerful enough to allow him to go toe to toe with a ll the other freaks. Like a romanticized Rainman and not an actual autistic.
I infact have my entire basis on this wrong. Rising Thunder was the name of the game, but their studio got bought by Riot Games and was scrapped, very different.
You what would had been better? That Batman was the rare exception in that he wasn't "born" with a sembalance, but what do I know. That or he could have the ability to do ninja stuff like make visual illusion clones or move about in darkness more easier. Wow, effort, I barely broke a sweat for that.
WB's failure against the MCU was simple: they rushed to match where the MCU was before they had even built their Foundations first.
You know, I just remembered Batman Begins, and I just remembered that Batman's shtick is that he uses psychological fear to shock and halt villains. Wouldn't that be a real kicker? That Batman could be a morale assassin who can sniff out what his opponents are really afraid of or just psychologically break them down, and just halt them entirely, or at least be able to open them up to more vulnerabilities or throw them off balance more often in combat?
