What's going on with Budget ALTTP-Link in the background there?
Is that the teeth brushing PSA ad dino?
EDIT: No, he was green. But this one is still familiar.
If they are going to bring back Slappy the first thing they have to do is get back Sherri Stoner. She reportedly was not involved with this reboot.
most of those others seem to be loose references to other properties not owned by Warner. Disney/Nintendo in particular.
"Skeletor" is in the back, i believe.
There is one tragedy about this trailer...
It seems like Pinky and Pharfignewton didn't work out.

Just like the first teaser this put a big, dumb smile on my face. Good stuff.

judging by pinky's phone at the very end, it seems like brain is trying to hypnotize people through an instagram post.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure even Ruegger said somewhere (I think it was an AMA) that he really regretted creating/approving the hippos.

Wow Donald Duck on the left
Something about Pinky being on Tinder feels... not correct.
This looks fun though, I'm curious if it'll be attempting to be all ages or if they're going to be more risqué with the jokes than usual (yes yes, "finger Prince", but you get the idea).

I. Can't. Wait. I'm so freaking excited for this.
I just started watching the originals on Hule because of this. The Yakko's World segment calls Puerto Rico and Guam separate countries, lol

Yeah, I'm really curious and excited to see what this segment is all about.

Normally, I'd assume it was that, but this reboot is being worked on by a bunch of younger artists who undoubtedly have more exposure to anime. So the parody should hopefully be more nuanced and involved than that.
Surface level aspect aside this would be fairly on point for the series.
Just noticed the trailer on Twitter is slightly different.

Mime is back?
No I think that's Ringo Starr.
What I am really digging about this is the fact that it doesn't have that flat/rigid/puppet like flash tweened animation seen in so many recent cartoons. There is a nice clean hand drawn kind of look to it with squash and stretch, pose-to-pose, follow-through and other techniques that give animation character rather than a robotic, manufactured look.
Noticed that as well. When the Brain was holding on to the cage in one little clip the cage looked like that "new school" look but he still looked pretty classic. As a kid I was a Nick Toons kinda guy and barely watched this show. Maaaaybe I've seen one or two episodes and a handful of clips in my life. This trailer has sold me. Show looks fantastic and I usually don't like reboots like this. Even as a Nick Toon person, I didn't make it through any of the three specials that came out awhile back (Rocko, Zim, Arnold).
Pinky, Elmyra, and the Brain was better than regular Pinky and the Brain.
Listen, I know sometimes people write things on the internet for shock value, but there are certain lines that shouldn't be crossed.
Ok I'm not one to try and judge someone for their taste seeing as I like several things considered "crap" by the internet at large.
But seriously WTF?
Just want to re-iterate on how great it is to see traditional animation techniques in play with a few select frames.
Look at all the character in each frame. It's what builds on great animation.

NickToons 90s stuff was the shit. There was so much expression and characterisation in their animation.
I wouldn't be surprised if they were using Toon Boom.
Edit update: I dig some digging around and it is indeed Toon Boom. Warner Bros Burbank is working on this and their primary animation software in job applications is : Photoshop, Toon Boom.

I guess I'm sensitive to this stuff. It'll be fine, watchable, good looking even, but I just don't like how digital looks here. Sometimes it's clearly new drawigns every frame, looks fantastic, other times it looks flat and not so hot.

I know Family Guy isn't really liked on this forum, but one of the writers of the show Wellesley Wild moved to Warner Bros Burbank to work on the new series of Animaniacs. He also penned Ted, Ted 2, and A Million Ways to Die in the West and the Orville.

Confirmed to be Toon Boom, I found Warner Bros Burbank info above.
I agree. It's not a deal-breaker and I'm sure it will grow on me, but it's just not cel animation. Nothing is these days, unfortunately.
