Creature Commandos releases new trailer ahead of December 5 release

It's a French studio apparently.

Speaking of, during yesterday's panel, James Gunn confirmed the series would have a sex scene, which may make things awkward if DeMarco asks for it.

So, it's literally just MORE Suicide Squad but called something else?

In-universe it’s the replacement program for the Suicide Squad after Congress declared the program inhumane and demanded it be shut down.

It’s also the first piece of media to take place in the rebooted DC Universe.  (Peacemaker and Blue Beetle apparently did occur in the broad strokes sense).

I see.

I no longer see because that's needlessly confusing. We're starting post-Suicide Squad, but it was a different one? Or the same one but in a reboot for some reason?

The previous DC Universe apparently had some things happen in broad strokes.  Like there was a Suicide Squad in this universe, but Will Smith didn’t say his cringe-tastic line, and the program was eventually shut down.  But most of it, namely all the Superman and Justice League stuff, was erased.

That would be preferable to a rerun of the Flop Girl.  Gonna need to edit it down though.  
 

Hopefully the preview confirms the song for the opening.  Rumor was it was going to be “Mother” by Danzig.

I remember the same expectation for Suicide Squad Isekai. If the show is a hit, there is no sense dirtying it with a cable run when it can live among their long list of Max exclusives. Even if it did air, it sure as hell wouldn’t be in January. 
 

Plus, when has DC ever been an ally to Toonami in the modern day? They farmed off a couple movie marathons at inconvenient times to promote their own content, that’s it.

The ideal January 2025 schedule looks something like this:

11:30 - DB Daima

12 A - Creature Commandos

12:30 - Mashle

1 A - Blue Exorcist

1:30 - One Piece

2 A - Demon Slayer Swordsmith Village 

2:30 - Invincible Fight Girl

3 A - Rick & Morty: The Anime

TOM pretty clearly said that CC would be exclusive to Max. Could that change? Sure, but not 3 weeks later. The fact that we didn’t get Suicide Squad Isekai should be all the proof anyone needs that CC won’t be coming either.

I thought Demarco had a hate boner for capeshit. 

What gave you that idea? He has always been pretty open that he would gladly air more capeshit on the block, if it existed and was available to the block. For a long time, there just flat out wasn’t any. Now more is being made, but it’s all spoken for on exclusive services. 
 

The main thing Demarco hates most is heterosexual fanservice.

DIdn't he shit all over the MCU on Twitter? Maybe it's just live action capeshit he's sick of.

Toonami regularly airs DC stuff and has for decades.  Justice League was synonymous with Toonami and that’s still considered one of the best superhero shows ever made.  Not to mention My Adventures with Superman.  I don’t think airing Creature Commandos would go against his ethics in that regard.

The MCU has kinda devolved heavily after Endgame, and even Deadpool was “You’re joining at a low point.”

He's right tho

DeMarco was completely right that it felt hypocritical for fans of a franchise that does most of its movies by a committee to decry the work of the man who's made cinema like Goodfellas, Raging Bull, Casino, and countless others.

But everyone ALSO was right that the guy responsible for bringing us the FLCL sequels and is about to bring us a cash grab Lord of the Rings film isn't the arbiter of good cinema.

Just thought of something: what if THIS is the show for January 4th!? There will be 5 episodes out by then, so follow it up with a special or something...

As nice as it would be, and it would help with the Superman hype, I think Warner would see it as giving away Max content, when Max is their biggest delivery system and priority.  I mean I’d take it over the Flop Girl 10 times out of 10, but they’re probably not seeing it as actually putting something on that will do ratings and get some interest, they probably see it as giving away premium content for less.
