JUSTICE LEAGUE x RWBY: 
SUPER HEROES & HUNTSMEN, PART ONE 
(2023 dir. Kerry Shawcross) Date Seen: April 25 2023

I'm not familiar with the Rwby characters that make up half of this movie, but even if I was it wouldn't help me get passed the appallingly ugly animation style it's done in. The 3D character models all look like they're from Budokai 2 , and it's 2023! That game's look only got a pass in 2003 because of Toriyama's aesthetically pleasing bedrock designs..
"I don't even want to be around anymore.."
I'm not saying there isn't an audience out there for content that looks this way, I'm just sayin' that I ain't it.. What's crazy is, with a lot more shading, surface detail, & a lower frame rate; you get the far less ugly look of a BATMAN NINJA -- and if you go in the opposite direction via completely stripping characters of shading, edges, angles, etc; You get the dreamy paint blob realm of things like AWAY (2019), FEAST (2014), or even Wind Waker.
Positive Note: 
Cyborg's re-imagined design was admittedly pure fire.
