The animation is solid, it's not the greatest animation I've ever saw but it's good enough in my book. It's true that this cartoon probably isn't going to be for everyone since it does take plenty of liberties which may or may not be agreeable but a lot of adaptations of works do, it's that fine line of being different and the same at the same time to stand on it's own. There's really not a whole lot I can say. The fact that there was a cartoon adaptation for this video game franchise, I was slightly sceptically about since cartoon adaptations for video game franchises have always been hit or miss with me, this one I personally thought was one of those hits, and one that crawled under the radar. It was also one of the factors that go me into martial arts and become a martial artist. The fact you can play martial artists to fight crime with martial arts skills and weapons to pick up along the way was awesome. Check it out, it doesn't take itself to seriously and its provides more fun than most.ĭouble Dragon is one of my favorite video game franchises, the first game (the arcade game) was one of the first video games I've played. For whatever reason I like Double Dragon more than the DC comics stuff like Batman.I do kinda dig the Superman shows though. I liked very much that it doesn't look at all like anime which I don't much care for. Basically its a 90s toon with a cool 80s vibe. There is also a degree of character development unlike some toons. I also like the dragon that leads them to secret spots the boys need to get to. The parts with the masks didn't bother me at all, sorta a bonus actually. Of course Double Dragon was a great video game series. This show has something, kinda hard to define but its there. The bad guys, especially Shadow Master are very cool. The plots are nothing special but probably better than most. I liked the animation and the characters were drawn large. Unlike some of the other reviewers I saw plenty of martial arts in the shows I watched.
#Double dragon cartoon intro lyrics movie#
The movie is set to swim into theaters on May 26, 2023.I watched a couple of episodes on youtube and enjoyed them. She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land, but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy. While mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. The youngest of King Triton’s daughters, and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea, and while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric. The Little Mermaid is the beloved story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure. What do you guys make of Marshall's reasoning? Drop us a comment down below. In the original, Ariel wants Eric to kiss her so that she can win her bargain with Ursula and get her voice back, so we're not really sure why this particular change was necessary!

The new version of the tune ill reportedly remove wording that encourages Prince Eric (Jonah Hauer-King) to plant a kiss on Ariel (Halle Bailey) without first obtaining her consent. "Because it’s important to remember that the culture and sensitivities have changed over the last 34 years, and it's vital that we are respectful to those changes." "We asked Lin-Manuel to make some slight adjustments to the original lyrics for 'Kiss the Girl,'" said the filmmaker in official Disney press notes. Star Halle Bailey has previously revealed that the movie will address some of the animated version's more problematic elements (“We’ve definitely changed that perspective of just her wanting to leave the ocean for a boy"), and director Rob Marshall has now explained why one of the original songs, "Kiss the Girl," has also been altered. 1989's The Little Mermaid is rightfully considered a classic, but some feel that certain aspects of the tale haven't aged particularly well over the years, and the upcoming live-action remake will make a few tweaks.
