This is as close to a valid case against my client as you'll ever get, BUT I put it to you ladies, gentlemen and assorted 'things' of the jury had the Highbreed faced such extreme psychological trauma their whole society would've collapsed overnight and it was IN FACT my client's actions in his close ties to one Reinrassig III seventh son of the Noble Highbreed House of Di Ralla and current Highbreed Supreme and his reforms he put in place that have held the Highbreed people together in these trying post war times.

These last few accusations are utterly laughable, with Highbreeds now free to seek employment on other planets their economy is booming, their birth rates haven't been this high in generations, and on behalf of my client I must strongly demand an apology from the court for the scandalous accusation of kidnapping of all things.

Yeah. But the Highbreed have definitely been inbreeding for far longer than a few thousand years. It's deeply rooted into their culture and would definitely take more than thousands of years to go from stable to unrecoverably damaged on the scale of the entire species. Especially since we don't know how long Highbreed live for so no reference to how often they actually do reproduce.

Again we don't know how long highbreed live for/ how often they reproduce, so we can't say for certain the timeframe it'd take for even a single generation of Highbreed to come about.
The only evidence we could use is the fact that the Highbreed had a culture of purity and inbreeding to begin with on a scale of their entire population, not just their leaders. The fact that it could've taken so long to feel the truly unsustainable effects of inbreeding might've been why that cultural idea lasted long enough to turn into self-extinction.
And by 'entire species' I moreso mean in the fact that Highbreeds were the dominant life on their planet. It's not a case of a small isolated group of individuals being cut off from the rest of the population, it's the entire population with no such barriers. It'd be like the entire human population doing Hapsburg-level inbreeding.

>It'd be like the entire human population doing Hapsburg-level inbreeding.
And if humanity actually did that on a global scale, individual people with deleterious genes would experience problems and take those gens out of the population as they fail to reproduce for whatever reason. Inbreeding only causes problems when deleterious versions of genes are present, and humanity as a whole has plenty of functional genes to go around. Highly inbred dynasties sometimes had trouble, but not every member of those dynasties did.

But that's not what's alleged of the Highbreed. Their notion of purity had something to do with them as a species, not with individual families. A species reproducing only within itself is the normal state of affairs, and if there's viable genetics there in the first place, continuing with that doesn't make it go away.

The form of inbreeding the Highbreeds seem to partake in seems to have something to do with both culture and how they perceive 'purity.'
With nothing entirely to go off, we can only infer that what they consider 'purity' is something akin to 'older = better.' An idea that the truest form of Highbreed is that of their ancestors.
Best way I can describe it is if humanity idolized homo erectus as the 'purist form' of humanity. Or something akin to World of Darkness vampires in that the bloodline gets weaker and weaker each generation.

So, in an effort to maintain as much of this 'ancestral purity' as possible, it might've been a lot of parent/offspring inbreeding, because they see older individuals as 'the purist.' Hence why they have a council of elders. This could play into the idea that Highbreeds weren't entirely incestuous originally, and to why they lived long enough to build a culture around the idea of purity. But as time went on the gene pool continued to shrink because they kept breeding with the oldest individuals, eventually making everyone siblings. And then whenever the oldest individuals die, the next generation is all that's left, leading to increasing amounts of parental and sibling inbreeding.

Of course this is all just speculation/theorizing on how exactly they got to the point of such genetic bottlenecking that they were functionally extinct by the time we see them.

Keep the fact that he is a jerk with superpowers as his central focus. The whole man/machine pathos really only works once as the focus, it works better as a lesser touched on background issue for an ongoing character
Depending on which origin,
The military John Corben, gets to be the US gov't jerk. A bit lesser used but he remains antagonistic, and gets to be the anti-superman bully the military has in their pocket for those kind of stories. Take some heat off Captain Atom as the goto guy for that, as a super-cyborg he can still explode instead. Give him a spin on Suicide Squad as Waller's enforcer

As the criminal conman who gets turned into a cyborg by a mad scientist, play him like a spider-man rogue or Absorbing Man. A two-bit criminal who gets superpowers and keeps being a two-bit criminal. Then Corben becomes a Clark Kent problem because he's still running the same old cons and crime sprees, but is also a Superman problem because Metallo is packing a superman tier cyborg body and can't be stopped by normal means. He's running scams then faking his death repeatedly by getting shot or being thrown into a river. He's using his artificial flesh to pose as different people. He's robbing warehouses as Metallo, and running a racket under a false corporation selling the whatever back at a huge markup.

Have John Corben be a normal human, a highly skilled strategist and technician (or whatever). But despite his skills he was struggling financially (and socially) until he was offered a place at Intergang (secretly led by Ultra-Humanite ). He hated being at Intergang at first but he proved to be an invaluable asset to the gang, tied with Mannheim.

Until one fateful day, at one of the secret Intergang buildings, the place was caught in a battle between Intergang and the police with (a young) Superman on the scene. The the battle had inadvertently caused a fire which leads into an explosion with Corben caught in it and being injured very severely despite Superman tried his best to prevent.
Some of the Intergang manage to escape while bring Corben's charred corpse. The group was ready to berry him but The Ultra-Humanite sill had plans for him.

Now a cyborg rebuilt stronger than ever, he is known known as Metallo. Despite now being alive and still employed to them, Corben however, now show secret utter distain towards Intergang because they didn't revive him because they cared but because they just need his skills and towards to Superman, blaming him for what happen to him in the first place.

He should just be a criminal scum bag / hired good instead of a guy going after superman.

>>136879711 (OP)
Short answer: a combination of 3DCG's novelty value and the miscalculations undertaken to rejuvenate traditional animation.

In the case of TP (or Atlantis, or Sinbad) trying to explore appealing to older audiences with action/adventure stories while still constraining the movies to G or PG ratings for family audiences resulted in products that basically failed to appeal to either in a commercially viable way.

[Assistant]
>>136879711 (OP)
audiences were sold on the medium of 3D animation deliberately from higher ups as they are easier to make (provided your not trying to go photo realistic). I only recall a handful of mixed animation CGI movies and out of them only 2 were successful, but not successful enough to warrant continued use of the mixed practice which has all the downsides of both traditional and Computer animation, however they were successful enough to have a strong cult following. Toy Story on release blew audiences away in the mid 90s and pretty much paved the way for computer animation being the dominant form of animation going forward. All of this and computers technology rapidly advancing sealed it over the course of the late 90s to the 10s.

Computer animation was once new and exciting and now 2D feels like a step backwards for anyone who only regards the film medium as a dopamine delivery system instead of a form of artistic expression. Also there’s probably an element of mental trickery in the fact that 3D crosses the uncanny valley threshold, making it feel more “real” than a drawing and thus more mature.

Western audiences didn't reject 2D animated movies because they were hand-drawn, they rejected them because they didn't appeal to normalfag tastes. Nobody wanted to see Broadway, heavy soap-opera fantasies anymore, they wanted to see the Ellen DeGeneres fish mope about mental illness and the Will Smith fish sing the Billboard Hot 100. For hand-drawn movies to be successful, they would've either they had to mimic the Pixar or DreamWorks style, but all of them copied Disney because Disney was the market leader. Disney refused to change, because to change their storytelling would've been to admit defeat. Audiences will gladly watch a hand-drawn animated movie if writers actually tell a story in a style worth a damn.

Now that CGI is flopping too they have to figure out how to pay them for watching minecraft streamers on their phones.

I still find the majority of criticisms of this movie to be retarded, like "Why would there be sailing boats as space ships?".
It's like they don't understand aesthetic concepts.

[Assistant]
Personally, as someone in the target audience back then, I didn't really care for most of these because after discovering anime on toonami a lot of these 2D movies just seemed really bland and safe. Like you knew you weren't going to get any real action or violence or feel high stakes. And a lot of these 2000's 2D styles felt very effeminate and wimpy.

As for normies, CGI was like this shiny new bobble with easy funny jokes to keep them interested.

[Assistant] Pixar was simply better than Disney. People can write essays and over-analyze, but this is the ultimate conclusion.

[Assistant]
It's simple:
Before anime truly became popular in the USA (I wont say west because Frogs), Disney had practically a monopoly on the western animated feature market and it meant that anything animated had the stigma of being for kids.
Yeah you had Ralph Bashki try to make animated films more adult, but they fall short on so many areas.
Anime on the other hand, especially films like Akira, showed the west that it was possible to let go of the disney stigma and actually make "kino" (sorry for a lack of a better word) films in the animated format
I genuinely do hope that with anime dominating we could see a return to 2D films but that would require Disney and their competitors to swallow their pride

Basically this, TV is dead and everything is either bomb format or dumped on a streaming service so all the content is dropped at once and then it's another huge drought until the next season drops.

Who cares about TV, the problem is that instead of the very healthy for randoms rhythm of "watch - discuss - watch" and so on, it's "binge the whole fucking season unless you want to get spoiled and then attempt to discuss the things YOU want to discuss in a general thread talking about a million different things moving at the speed of light, if it's something minor - no one cares or remembers, if it's some big plot point - everyone already talked about it and doesn't care anymore, but whatever you do, better do it quick, because you're already officially in a inter-season hiatus and the general will turn to stagnant shit any second and you'll have to wait half a year before you have anything new to discuss". The classic format of having a week to discuss the one new episode with some general discussion mixed in is so much better for everyone. Each episode and any minor plot points or characters in it got the attention they deserved. Better for discussion, better for fanart, better for the fandom.
