About Scoob!...

Yeah, so the movie comes out on VOD on May 15, 2020, initially scheduled for a theatrical release. I saw that Trolls World Tour was ultimately considered a feature film, and was attached a note to its release saying that it was originally planned to go to cinemas before the pandemic messed those plans and it went to VOD instead. That's the approach I would personally recommend.

So, what should be done? Declare this film a direct-to-video movie, putting it into the same category as WBA's direct-to-video films, or just go like what happened with Trolls World Tour?

Because I'm not sure what to do, that's why... Plus, I want to seek advice first, due to regretting immensely how I used to rush and then get reverted at my edits. Andrei Bondoc (talk) 08:21, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Separating Looney Tunes from Warner Bros. Animation?

Why separate all the Looney Tunes projects from this page? All the ones from the 1980s to the present are made from the same studio. Brian K. Tyler (talk) 21:12, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good question, but I thought it was good idea to let this page focus on works by the studio that were not Looney Tunes oriented, when I saw that someone else had already made the move of seperating the Looney Tunes shorts from this page. I think the current set up makes more sense, than previous version. But it would have made as good sense if the Looney Tunes material was all re-listed not just part of it as previously or maybe this artitlce could be split in two Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies filmography (1970–present and miscellaneous) since the first half of it are manly cartoons obviously produced by Warner Bros Animation while the second half was mostly only produced by the original studio.DoctorHver (talk) 03:29, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

But what about the possibility of crossovers. And the the fact that shows like Animaniacs gave Looney Tunes characters cameos? Brian K. Tyler (talk) 17:41, 31 December 2020 (UTC) Animanicas and Looney Tunes are same univers already, so they are not seperated, the real mystery is the fact that Tom and Jerry and Looney Tunes have never been combined considered both are form the golden era American animated cartoons and that combination makes probably more sense than some of the crossover we have seen in resent TJ DTV features such as Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory movie. Crossover realy shouldn't count for anything if they are cameos only, the only time they should count is if the plot depends on the crossover. DoctorHver (talk) 01:52, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I oppose the separation of Looney Tunes to their own filmography pages from WBA's filmography article, because it's not only a potential gateway to separate Scooby-Doo, Tom & Jerry, DC and about everything based on big, licensed franchises, it could also confuse people to see what WBA actually did. Wanna see their LT work? Go check out the franchise's filmography page! Still not here? See the page with the most recent period! Everything that WBA did should be mentioned in its filmography page, not separated into thousands of other articles! Andrei Bondoc (talk) 08:28, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The setup on the WBA page is not complete if the Looney Tunes shorts still kept sepertated from the rest, but then it still includes TV Shows, TV specials and feature films besed on the Looney Tunes, actually makes more sense to seperate Looney Tunes completely from the rest as not every post 1970 work was produced by WBA, several of those shorts, specials and features pre-date WBA some by year and some by months, and technically shouldn't be included at all in WBA filmography, Its unfortunete not to know the exact date when WBA opened in 1980, As for further seperation of franchie's from this filmography, thats not needed since its rather accurate what WBA actually produced on those fronts, unless WBA has/had inner divisions were animation based on pre 1986 - MGM; library, Hanna-Barbera Productions, DC comics, Looney Tunes, post-1970 originals are all considered to be serperate divisions from one another. Since we have never seen serious crossover between Tom and Jerry and Looney Tunes, and no serious crossover between anything else for that matter with the expection of Scooby Doo and Batman (Hanna-Barbera had already done some Animations on DC comics properties in 1970s and 1980s and crossed Scooby doo with Batman in The New Scooby-Doo Movies, so they did Scooby-Doo! & Batman: The Brave and the Bold) so you got to wonder if thats indeed the case. However i'm, leaving out cameos, since an apperance 10 to 30 sek of character form another property that has no bearing on the plot of the film doesn't feel like it counts for anything meaningful so Teen Titans Go! To the Movies shouldn't be counted as Looney Tunes feature since Daffy only appears in what 10 to 30 sek on WBA shield before the movie, no more should Gremlins 2: The New Batch be considered a Looney Tune film because Bugs appears in the opening that last less than a minute. While the compalition films from 1980s to the live-action hybrids are. SO i'm gong to argue that it is more accurate to seperate everything Looney Tunes from this filmography or include everything that the studio actually produced, since very first compilation feature The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie predates WBA by year, and some of the Looney Tunes shorts produced in 1990s were exlusive produced by Jones at his studio, not WBA, same with the CGI shorts of early 2010s who were mainly produced by Reel FX Creative Studios so including that films actually creates more confusion and exluding the shorts creates even more confusion considering not every short post 1970 was indeed produced by WBA, thus I think this list should reflect what WBA actually produced.

Warner Animation Group

Do all the films and shorts produced by Warner Animation Group have to be on here if they’re not from the same animation studio? Brian K. Tyler (talk)

No. WAG productions should be removed from the WBA filmography article, since they're separate entities (to clarify, the former is under WBPG and the latter is under WBGKYAC, it's kinda like Walt Disney Animation Studios and Disney Television Animation are positioned within Disney). Also, I'd like to ask if I am allowed to remove them, given the issue. Andrei Bondoc (talk) 12:22, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I would give you permission to remove them given your validly stated reasons. Just leave the WBFA productions because that studio was reportedly absorbed into WBA. Brian K. Tyler (talk) 22:59, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Skull Island

This series is produced in association with Warner Bros. Animation, I just want Netflix to collaborate with Warner Bros. Animation and with Sam Register the executive producer. Executives at Warner Bros. Animation want them to collaborate with Netflix and Legendary Television to get involved with Skull Island. I was trying to put the co-production or association with Warner Bros. Animation, but you keep reversing it and saying that Warner Bros. Animation is not being involved with the series. Is not fair. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Animation and distributed by Warner Bros. Television Studios under the Warner Bros. Discovery division. It's true. And I want this series released by Max under the Max Originals (subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Brands and Experiences)

In January 2021, it was announced that a continuation of the MonsterVerse in the form of an anime television series was in development. Brian Duffield was hired to serve as writer, creator, executive producer, director, and showrunner for the show; while Jacob Robinson would also serve as an executive producer. The project was announced to be a joint-venture production between Warner Bros. Animation, Legendary Television, Netflix Originals, Powerhouse Animation, and Tractor Pants Productions; and was produced with intent to release exclusively to Netflix and to Max (subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery and Warner Bros. Discovery Global Brands and Experiences). Why is the series not co-produced by Warner Bros. Animation and executive produced by Sam Register? 2804:14C:598B:81CA:29D1:E8DF:62AB:1AE6 (talk) 14:50, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

@Waxworker: In the lead, "This article is a list of productions by the American animation studio Warner Bros. Animation" is unnecessary because it is self-evident from the article's title. If you don't like my revision, please provide better phrasing. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 17:34, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't revert your edit. I have no opinion on this. Waxworker (talk) 17:39, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
