Sharing the pain...

scar_let forwarded me the link to the Dragonlance trailer, and I'm sharing the pain with you:

Watch on YouTube

He commented that it's nice that the Thundarr the Barbarian animators are still getting work, and one of the commenters on the YouTube page summed up my own reaction quite nicely:

The only good animation in this bullshitting trailer is the paramount logo!!

This is truly a mess of epic proportions. At least it's going straight to video, but Jesus...

I cannot believe they've not only resorted to using crappy 80s animation but mixed and matched crappy styles to suit some sort of perverse whim. The original Scooby Doo series had better animation and at least it was consistent. Even Liberty's Kids is better than this. I am just ... just horrified. I never read the series, so I was considering viewing this film, but I can't now. My head would explode.

Read the books, seriously, they're just like reading a D&D campaign in novel format. You can almost hear the dice rolling, it's fantastic.
