People always shat on this show's animation, but it really wasn't bad for its time.

It just needs to be released in HD. But I have no idea where this screenshot came from, it seems like a higher quality than any rip I've seen before.

CGI will always age poorly no matter how good it looked at first.

how many old CGI have been released in HD?

pretty sure that picture was created for advertising the Valentines' Day special, hence why it's such a high quality image. it's not a screencap from an epiosde

I literally told you last thread, this screenshot is from the iTunes rip.

>epiosde
typo aside, my point still stands. this car commercial from 2009 (three years after the show ended) already had way better lighting, rendering, and models:

That's not animation, it's a still iimage.
Though kudos, this about as ugly as I remember it for when it was new.

The reason it looked decent for the time period is that the movie and the series were greenlit by Nick at the same time and the production company managed to convince Nick to make the movie first so that they could build all the character models and locations at theatrical resolution using the movie's budget and then re-use them for the show.
The show actually looks better than the movie in many respects because they were able to spend the money they didn't have to use on creating assets to improve the lighting and textures

>bad
Name 3 other shows before 2003 that had better CGI.

Betty and Judy look bretty gud

Rico's Roughnecks
Reboot
Beast Wars

And Donkey Kong Country

Now actually look up those shows and watch some episodes.

Beast wars and reboot look like fried ass.

>rico's roughnecks
You mean Starship Troopers Chronicles?
Based show regardless

the itunes rip looks like shit compared to that though
proofs?

Absolutely not, to ANY of those, unless you equate quality animation exclusively with "character designs have similar proportions to actual humans".
Fuuuuuck no. The animation is wonky as all fuck

>morons that equate art style with animation
there are still CGI movies being released today DTV that have worse shading and lighting than the OP image

That show is only good for the songs, everything else is so fucking ass.

Beast Wars was the only good one, though the animation is the LEAST shittiest in the 3.

I literally said, it wasn't animation.
The artstyle was alway ugly but it's about as ugly as I remember regardless of the passage of time.

Except for toy story 2.

Are you kidding? Look at the SOUL in that image.

what's so ugly about it?

real adventures of jonny quest

I've actually been re-watching this recently and you're a fucking liar bruv.

kek i love it tho

It was, what, the first of something like five shows where this was a focus. RAJQ gets a pass, especially considering the drawn parts of it were pretty okay.

It's showing its age I'll say that much. I loved this fucking show as a kid. Don't forget our boy Ezekiel Rage dies horribly like 4 times and always comes back and that one episode where even the island was a ghost.

Blizzard's cinematics from over ten years ago still blows most 3D animation movies out of the water.

the jimmy neutron movie was on par with citizen kane

They didn't get it did they?

I always found it to look kind of plastic, textureless, and lifeless. Never cared for the designs either.

Weren't the CGI segments in the show supposed to look like obvious CGI? Like it was a virtual world or something?
