The problem with XRA is that it looks like shit. The ps2 cutscene style doesn't have any value, not even meme value, other than low production costs.

Which animation style do you think would work for season 3?

I think superjail style would work pretty well

The problem with XRA is that adult swim elitists think to like the show means they are better than the Rick and Morty Normies. The animation is basic adult swim fare only in 3d.

New season of XRA would be pure memekino. Also, it's obviously supposed to look weird and stupid. Having good animation like Superjail would be counterintuitive.

Too bad shit 3d looks worse than shit 2d

There are a lot of ways to make weird and stupid animations without them looking disgusting

Take that!

It uses Second Life.

Obviously the clear path of evolution is to use Roblox

Low production costs and jokes that work for it, like the townsfolk looping animations after drinking the infected water.

It just wouldn't translate to animation and work as well.

Wrong.

>Which animation style do you think would work for season 3?

Not happening, even if I'd like it.

Good show, bad thread, dumb OP.

From tv.avclub.com/vernon-chatman-and-john-lee-of-xavier-renegade-angel-1798215735 :

>AVC: How did you settle on that videogame-inspired style? I’ve read people comparing it to Nintendo 64…

>VC: Was that someone every person who’s ever seen the show?

>AVC: I guess it was.

>VC: CG just has this clumsy earnestness about it. It’s totally ambitious and totally limited, so when it fails, it fails in a really lame way. It’s partially because it’s motion-capture suits. The whole show is mo-cap, and the guy who plays Xavier is a horse. We just have a horse walking around, wearing a man suit. They reassign his arms and legs, and that’s how we get him to look so powerful.

>JL: Somehow, that animation is perfectly beautiful, honest, and truthful.

>VC: It reaches a reality that even reality can’t really reach. It’s a new dimension, emotionally. It’s also a desperate clawing toward entertainment. Imagine a hurt possum that just got run over, his back half, and he’s just clawing to get to the other side of the road. He sees his family, and you just hear the sound of the clawing.

>JL: You feed that into a machine, and that’s what CG looks like.

>VC: It’s beautiful. You can’t not look at it.

>AVC: And yet you take a chance on people being immediately repelled by it, because it looks so strange?

>VC: No one is saying they like it. We wouldn’t like a hurt possum, we’re not animals.

>JL: There’s something really great about CG. People celebrate how real and amazing it looks, like when someone stands up and walks out of the room, but only a dumb person would stand up and walk out of the room like that. Somehow, the people who make it tout how amazing that is. “Look at the hair, how it flows!” People are like, “Look at Shrek’s hair!” And that’s because the movie was so crappy that that’s all you could look at.

Incorrect. The motion capture and facial animation are superb in contrast to the overall visual quality.

It's freedom... PERSONIFIED!

It looks like that on purpose, they wanted it to look like second life and have a weird surreal quality to it.

I think the shitty 3D contribute more to the show than you're giving it credit for. The animations in particular are surprisingly smooth and I can think of a bunch of quick gags using it off the top of my head.

>Look at Shrek’s hair!

These guys are good

This

I think shit 3D has a special charm to it. I like shitty 3D better than shitty canadian flash tweened cartoons

Why the fuck do people make serious fan art of this show?

>The ps2 cutscene style

That's exactly the point you fucking dumb. Early 2000s shitty graphics align perfectly with shitty pseudo nu-spiritualism of the same age. You know, people who went to burning person.

>and the guy who plays Xavier is a horse

I fucking knew it

More like why not? If anything Xavier should have a crossover with everything. He can be worked into literally anything I'd argue.

If this show gets a season 3 I will walk up to adult swim headquarters and lather myself in various white cheese creams on their front lawn

Be sure to be completely naked. They'll approve.

HOW DO WE MEME A SEASON 3

why not? here have an old fanart i made

Isn't it from the early 2000's? all 3d on television looked like shit back then. Except here it didn't matter that much because of what the show was (it wasn't trying to tell a serious story).

07 to 09.
10 year anniversary November 4th.

Oh, so it was deliberate.

That sounds pretty pretentious, imo.

>spend a few hours watching the entire thing again for old times sake
>jewtube autoplay happens
>tranny cunt spending 2 hours being tumblr incarnate while pretending to analyze the show

i'd link to the thing but i dont wanna give It the views

>I’ve read people comparing it to Nintendo 64…

Someone whose never played a N64 game.

you're wrong to think this

you mean most people?
>the n64 was 21 years ago

We make our own. Where's the user with the 3D models?

>Sup Forums
>accomplishing anything

We made Xavier sfm pron.
We have voice actors.
We have writers.
I think Sup Forums can actually do something for once

>on youtube
>recommended video is some nasally cunt explaining why the show is popular all of a sudden
Fucking shit

you mean the literal tranny that spent 2 hours stuttering over every third sentence?

No

But in XRA's case the style actually works. The show has good writing and great characters, and the 3D modeling complements the surreal tone of the show.
You might as well be complaining that the problem with Dali is that his clocks look too droopy. It's missing the whole point.

The DVDs had a great fan-made commentary on the first episode. I can't tell if he's deliberately bullshitting, though. Some things he says make a lot of sense though, like Xavier's bizarre chimerical appearance representing the incoherent mish-mash of non-Western thought and spirituality that is New Age (itself a Western phenomenon)

i really love the animation style on xra, if it was just another 2D show i wouldn't give a shit.

This. The whole "I thought this show was a dream I had" wouldn't work with a cartoony style

It's fit for purpose. The fast-paced often absurd humor fits with everything looking janky and weird all the time.

>The problem with XRA is that it looks like shit.

Now you're just being a obtuse contrarian because you can.

I agree with the other anons ITT, the animation style is critical to the show. Proper CG would make it seem tryhard and lame, 2D just wouldn't do it justice

The early gen video game style is hilarious

This video was actually entertaining

wasn't that bad desu

>that
>bad
a little unnecessary and doesnt say a whole lot, but hardly offensive.

Is this just a really elaborate way to tell people like OP to fuck off? There's no other way to interpret this.

No joke I think the show could only work with the PS2 graphics due to all of the glitches and oddities that appears. It just kinda stick out more when his hair move in a weird way in front of his mouth and it wasn't meant to be anything, not even a visual gag, it just how it got render into the final cut. Ton of smaller moments like that can lead to an overall weird experience. If you just turn it into a fucking character in terms of animation then it will be complete shit as many of the things won't work as well. Beside the weird look it really only have the wordplay and jokes going for it.

we sure do have the tools sir but we ain't more worthy

Just make 5min short videos to test the waters
get other boards on it

It was some random user on /aco/ not Sup Forums, it might be in the archives somewhere

>3:41
"AS is even gonna be reairing it"
>October 3, 12:15
C-could this be our chance to show that a season 3 is wanted enough to be made?

Taste the pain!

said the 365th gendered cuck

Xavier jumping through the windows in the first episode seemed like another thing they couldn't get quite right, so they said fuck it and ragdolled him.

We don't cotton to freaks around here.

We seriously need to watch this shit and give it ratings. If enough people are interested we might get something official from PFFFR in the future.

IM A METAL HEAD A METAL HEAD A METAL HEAD A METAL HEAD

>its an user doesnt know how ratings work
Just spam the shit out of their social media accounts.
Ratings are based on Neisel tests. Interviewing people on the street if they saw a show or not.
Some actually install a device alongside, which you have to consent, your tv so it can measure how much you watch, but not every single tv on the planet has it

This, the only bad looking 3d is Reboot and Beast Wars. Not hating, but they have some weird lightning and glossyness

Real question is how intelligent is the Warden?

I thought this too and wondered what XRA would look like in a different artstyle

The closest thing we'll get is a new ep on Aprils Fools day instead of new Rick and Morty

Thanks!

the facebook group has had it for weeks nigga
