Don't worry, I didn't actually pay to see this underwhelming film, and neither should you. The overall style and designs are just your typical tried and tested Disney, the story recycles lots of their already boring tropes and... the story just doesn't flow naturally, there's way too much going on for one film. Raya the Last Airbender looks and sounds very good, but then again it's a film worth hundreds of millions of dollars, so what did you expect?
I mean, what a waste of time and money to make a film about some exotic culture without utilizing visually any of the existing art and culture of the region on more fundamental design level like they used to do back in the 90's, similar fashion to what Cartoon Saloon did with Wolfwalkers. That's just stupid and lazy, and honestly very boring.
But hey, this is Disney we're talking about so all the mainstream media and pinhead fanboys will be pissing gold all over this corporate mediocrity like it's the next Sistine Chapel or Citizen Kane of animation.

Man, I wish I had seen this as a kid. Swat Kats is still awesome comic book style action cartoon with all the good stuff, like furries, mad doctors, robots, giant monsters, aliens and other cliches.
The animation is actually really damn well made, especially on season 2 where they outsourced the production solely to Japan and got in some obvious anime influences as well, even the writing went more mature and better.
Swat Kats was originally cancelled while few episodes were still under production because of some moral panic of early 90's. The big boss didn't want kids killing each other, so they killed this massively popular show instead. The huge fanbase is still out there desperately wanting more, and for a reason I would say.

Damn, this series was so good. Back in the days they used to make crazy stuff, and Jim is one of the craziest animated characters ever, but I don't think they quite matched the absurd genius of the original games, like it's not raining grandma's or anything. The voice cast of this show is amazing.
