‘The Cuphead Show’ Trailer: Animated Adaptation of Popular Video Game Really Goes For It (Video)
The first “Cuphead Show” trailer is here and it is positively overflowing with old school animation techniques, allusions to classic cartoons, and the kind of irreverent fun that made the “Cuphead” video game such a sensation.Originally released in 2017, “Cuphead” is a fast-paced shoot ‘em up that draws heavily from the animated shorts and features from yesteryear. While the new Netflix show doesn’t have quite the same fidelity to the past (the video game had hand-painted cels, while this new show uses newer technology), it certainly captures the spirit in the same way.
