Skyland: Good 3D anime, or a waste of money?

[Waterbender]

Nicktoons Network is coming out with a new show "Skyland" It's anime (sorta) but since it's CGI 3D it looks really bad.

[spoiler]The show is about some people who soak up the sun (just like the firebenders gain their powers from the sun's energy) and they use the energy to fuel these ship thingys, and some people are rebellious, and eberything.[/spoiler] (for more info go to Wikipedia.com

But seeing the previews I got all "huh? what's this?" :animestun
"How could people who create anime sink so low?"
The first thing I hear in the previews is this
"In a world that's controlled by evil..."
Well here's something for you...a lot of worlds are controlled by evil. It would be intresting if the rebillion was the enemy but....

Another strange thing is a line that the guy say:
"Hit them with everything we got"
That's a very....star war type thign to say. Another thing that's very "star war" like is the fact that they fly around in big space ship thingies. It doesn't have that....that....almost magic type thing anime needs to have.

Also some of the people look like people from other shows
Take the one person for instance. It looks like they messed up Prince Zuko really badly. And that other person looks like I have seen him from somehwere. HMMMMMMMMMMM

I hate to burst your bubble but Skyland is technically not anime as it is made by a Canadian company while Anime falls under countries like Japan.

That said, I reckon that it is pretty cool, Australians saw the first two episodes earlier in the year and the rest that are currently avaliable in around July. It's animated crisply and has a great storyline even though the voices are somewhat lacking.

[color=#007520]Since this is technically not Anime, I'm moving it to Movies, Music and TV.

I mean, if the world is controlled by evil, and that evil is the rule of thumb, doesn't that make this certain evil 'good'?
It's all about perspectives. An 'evil-controlled' world may shun what is deemed to be 'good'. 'good', in this sense, becomes 'bad'.


In any case, the premise for this show sounds too damn corny. I won't be wasting my time.[/color]
