Marvel fans it's incredibly rare for the house of ideas to debut a new animated TV show it's even rarer for that show to have it's first full episode uploaded o the Disney Channel Youtube channel. Well that's just what happened with this show and since i've now seen both the first episode and the second episode I thought that i;d talk about them both and so then join me as I give you my first impressions of the show that lets face it alot of us forgot was even a thing with the show in question being called simply just "Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur" enjoy.
The plot of this show so far seems to be thirteen year old Lunella Lafayette accidentally brings a dinosaur home and decides to team up with it to become a superhero. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this sows first two episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this shows first two episodes was pretty good with episode one having the better plot since that episode actually had a plot to speak of where as episode doesn't have a plot in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Starring in this shows first two episodes are Diamond White as Lunella Lafayette / Moon Girl and Fred Tatasciore as Devil Dinosaur and Coach Hrbek. Also starring in these first two episodes are Libe Barer as Casey , Sasheer Zamata as Adria Lafayette , Jermaine Fowler as James Lafayette Jr. , Alfre Woodard as Mimi Lafayette , Gary Anthony Williams as Pops Lafayette , Alison Brie as Aftershock , Utkarsh Ambudkar as Anand , Michael Cimino as Eduardo , Omid Abtahi as Ahmed , Josh Keaton as Angelo and this shows co-creator and executive producer Laurence Fishburne as Backstory Man.
Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in these first two episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in these first two episodes was in all honesty not that bad. With the cast doing their best to make the episodes script work for them since the acting in the first couple of episodes is never that good anyways I feel that the acting in this show would only get better as the show goes on.
Doing the animation for this show is the legends and the greats that are currently over at Flying Bark Productions. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these first two episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in these first two episodes was in all honesty not that bad with their quite clearly being a lot of effort and care put into this show but at the same time tho this shows animation really does seem to be really choppy at times.
The shows main character does so far at least come of as being kind of like a Mary Sue in that she can do everything and do no wrong. However at the same time tho we do get to see her go through alot of the struggles that alot of superheroes go through and we get to see try to overcome those struggles as well all of which does go along way to making her seem like a really interesting character it's just shame that not only Moon Girl but alot of the shows cast characters just aren't that fun or even that entertaining for the most part.
I can see the shows teenage girl target audience really liking this show however with that being said there's not alot here that would cause it to get a much bigger auidence outside of the Marvel name. Which is a shame because of the fact that this show does have a really fresh and unique look to it which does make it stand out from all of the other animated shows that Disney have but having a fresh an unique look to it won't be enough to attract a bigger audience you need great characters and great stories and so far this show is sorely lacking in great stories that worth telling and doesn't really have any great or memorable characters.
I really wouldn't blame you if you forgot about this show even existing since Disney and Marvel havn't been marketing this show at all. Heck outside of a few clips i've not even single trailer for this show and I had no idea that the show even released a poster which to me is just a sign of really bad marketing which is made even worse when you take into account that this show will also be premiering on Disney+ in just a few short days and not alot of people are talking about this show because chances are that they don;t know that this even exists.
Now then the first episode of this show has / and an exact grand total running time of exactly forty four minuets and forty nine seconds and episode two has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty two minuets and thirty four seconds. With episode one have the better running time since it allowed the show to set up it's word and all of it's main characters and still great a story where as episode two just didn't have a story to tell however both episodes have pacing issues with episode two not having a story and so it just felt long and boring and episode one having an ad break seemingly every few minuets.
So now then since this is an action show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in these first two episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in these first two episodes was in all honesty not that bad. That's not to say that it's bad since it's not it;s really creative but at the same time it;s the kind of action that you'd expect to see in a kid friendly Marvel animated TV show and nothing more then that in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Overall for a show that had alot of potential to be a good show so far it seems like it;s not of to the best of starts but only time will indeed tell if this show more then lives up to that potential but so far it's not looking all that good in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in these first two episodes in this very post and since this is only my first impressions I won't be giving this show a rating however if i'm still watching this show when this shows final episodes airs or is released then i'll give this a show review and a rating as well but so far it's not of to very good start at all.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post well then boys and girls as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post from the official Disney fandom wiki page , the official Moon Girl Ad Devil Dinosaur fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very post being the official Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the great freaking the official Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being very fairly freaking high in definition.
