This thread concerns creators, artists and others who work in the modern western American Animation Industry, filled with cows, hacks, groomers, woketards and self inserters who all know each other and/or have dated.

Some of the big name cows currently in the industry:

>Rebecca Sugar: Creator of Steven Universe, Drew Ed, Edd n Eddy R34, self inserted her brother into the show, claims to be a queer woman despite having a long term heterosexual relationship for her entire adult life

So Noelle's feature film is set to be released next year on Netflix

>The animated film Nimona, scrapped following the shutdown of Blue Sky Studios amid Disney’s acquisition of Fox, has landed at Netflix, with Chloë Grace Moretz (Mother/Android), Riz Ahmed (Sound of Metal) and Eugene Lee Yang (Spring Bloom) set to star. The adaptation of ND Stevenson’s New York Times bestselling graphic novel—originally to have been directed by Patrick Osborne, but now being helmed by Nick Bruno and Troy Quane (Spies in Disguise)—will debut on the streamer in 2023.

>In the LGBTQ+-themed Nimona, Knight Ballister Boldheart (Ahmed) is framed for a crime he didn’t commit and the only person who can help him prove his innocence is Nimona (Moretz), a shape-shifting teen who might also be a monster he’s sworn to kill. Set in a techno-medieval world unlike anything animation has tackled before, this is an inclusive story about the labels we assign to people and the shapeshifter who refuses to be defined by anyone. Yang is playing a character named Ambrosius Goldenloin.
>Taking to Twitter today to celebrate Nimona‘s revival was Stevenson, who wrote, “Nimona’s always been a spunky little story that just wouldn’t stop. She’s a fighter…but she’s also got some really awesome people fighting for her. I am excited out of my mind to announce that THE NIMONA MOVIE IS ALIVE…coming at you in 2023 from Annapurna and Netflix.”

Oh god, why can't she let this go? There was a shapeshifting NB in She-Ra, and one of her self-pitying comics included a part wishing she were a shapeshifter that could be a dainty woman one day and a strong man the next, too. You only have one body, Noelle. It can't change on a dime, but it is capable of some changes. You can be a strong or a dainty woman, but you'll never be any kind of man, and what changes you can obtain don't happen by taking a few magic pills without any other effort.

can I say that I've always found noelle's work to be completely mediocre even in her big tumblr days. It's baffling to me how she came to be a showrunner and now has an upcoming movie of her original ip.

I've also heard through the grapevine that she-ra was a mess to work on because she didn't know how to run the show at all.

To be fair, most major figures in modern western animation are mediocre artists with no idea how to run a show. The only thing that makes Noelle stand out from the group was that she wasn't an animation industry nepotism baby, and she's actually SSA instead of a queerhet larper. In that way, her cringe feels more authentic and understandable (though it's still bad), as opposed to the CalArts crowd, who were born into money and given everything they could have needed to succeed, but still came out retarded. Granted, sometimes I wonder if she only got big in the industry because she emotionally latched onto a NY nepotism baby (who, not to paint Molly as a victim, treated her like shit and then latched onto her in return when her career started taking off), but I will admit seeing her success does make me feel like I'm at a Special Olympics horse race where all the horses are retarded, and she's my favorite retard horse because she came from a small, local farm instead of being purebred by enormously wealthy people.

Inside Job is such an odd show where it's like "all conspiracy theories are real but only the ones that are socially acceptable to believe". It's a fine premise but the fact that it's written by Twitter liberal millennials kind of hurts it. And god this show refuses to let you forget its writers are millennials with all the 90s and 00s references.

AYRT and I'm not saying all animators are rich kids (that would be retarded, considering most of them are treated like shit and forced into crunch time but don't leave their fields), but the fact is that there are a substantial amount of people who go to CalArts in particular that are bored upper middle class to rich white straight people who are terrified of not being special, despite being horribly unoriginal and lackluster. A lot of that kind end up running the business, because that's just how capitalism tends to work everywhere. Rich kids get the rich kid jobs, especially if they have familial ties in the industry.

No one is saying that rich people can't feel like shit or suffer from mental illness or trauma, retard. It's just harder for the average person to empathize with people with special privileges like wealth or fame when they seem to think that their lives are awful, when they have the means to improve their lives themselves, and most of us don't. Those of us who can't make rent will struggle to cry for wealthy people who don't have to worry about surviving or having their basic needs met (and then some) but invent problems for themselves by constantly barking up the wrong trees. I feel bad for Noelle for being a traumatized SSA woman, but she has had every opportunity to better herself, and instead just digs herself further down. She's not the worst instance of this by a long shot, though. Not even close. But it would be stupid of me not to be able to acknowledge that she's at least partly responsible for her own misery, as a fully grown adult with good prospects who has been granted a lot of good fortune in her career.

Because you shouldn’t have to keep reinforcing that your character abuses/assaults others because “boo hoo my mama didn’t hug me enough”. Like, you can understand the character/what ‘built them’, but jfc don’t force the audience and the characters to like the person who goes out of their way to hurt others

Another character I thought of is that white haired chic from ghost and molly McGee.

She was raised in poverty by her mother and Simon, though. Hunson was basically absent her entire childhood, so his power and wealth were basically irrelevant until he was an adult and wanted her to inherit his job.

Also, the show doesn't use her childhood trauma as a justification for her behavior. The flashbacks to her childhood are mostly just part of a larger plotline involving Simon. Marceline's impulsiveness and pettiness are just innate aspects of her character that appear to have been there in some capacity even when she was a kid.

Also, she's stuck as a teenager forever because that's when she absorbed the soul of the vampire king, so there's an element of arrested development at play.

Some helluva boss clips were leaked onto 4chan straight from a storyboarder's website. The one with the fight being episode 9 and the two clips focusing on stolas daughter being from episode 12. The episode 12 clips look a little too good to be true for me. The camera angles and way things are framed within the scene are way better that what helluva boss has done so far. A lot of the shots look really basic and usually stay the same through out unless it's a fight scene or musical scene they wanted to put effort into. There have also been some gifs released on twitter by VivziePop of hazbin hotel. Honestly wish viv and Brandon were actually good at writing so they could make the whole troubled parent relationship thing work.

Exactly, the show is another superficially progressive medium like many other modern shows, just because it’ll handle slightly “”darker” subjects, but with the addition that it will run over all it’s female casts.
Sorry but I just do not like this show and can’t see why it garnered this much attention. At times, I think the unique artstyle is the only thing saving it/is the reason why people where interested in the first place (that is to say IF they weren’t past the age of a freshman in college)

She can't defend "it's only the angels because their bad guys" defense because the second female lead in the show is called Vaggie which is another joke.

Also tired of everyone having "being gay and horny" as their only personality trait (like Blitzo and Stolas from Helluva), and I say this as someone who likes hot men and bl.

Early reviews of Mindy Karling's Velma, its somehow even worse then what everyone expected

https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/velma-review-scooby-gang-adult-170027366.html

>It’s not a casting issue, but a writing issue, as whatever character traits made Velma, Daphne, Fred and Shaggy engaging in the original simply isn’t present here, and the serialized mysteries aren’t engaging enough to push the narrative forward. Really, it feels like there’s something missing here. Maybe the producers should consider adding another character. Like a funny talking dog.


https://www.bubbleblabber.com/season-review-velma-season-one/

>Velma feels like the Cliff’s Notes version of Scooby-Doo that was then eaten and thrown up by the dog. To be clear, a series of this nature should be allowed to forge its own path or choose to omit Scooby-Doo or any sort of canine companion, but there just needs to be substance underneath it all rather than cynicism. Velma comes across as even emptier after something like Glass Onion, which clearly has such reverence for Agatha Christie mysteries, whereas Velma repeatedly dresses down the original Scooby-Doo simply because it needs a target.

>Velma is edgy and it wants its audience to know that right from the jump. There’s rampant cursing, gratuitous female nudity and graphic violence, and there are even cockroaches copulating doggie style all in an attempt to come across as shocking and funny. It’s all such a transparent attempt to push these characters into a more mature universe without justification or much of a plan.
>Audiences just want a funny, genuine update on Scooby-Doo. Not only does Velma take too long to rid itself of its baggage and be itself, but it often feels like it has a direct disdain for its source material.

Skip if you’re not interested in sperging about angels:

>>1738581
I find angels to be interesting the way they’re portrayed in a lot of esoteric religion—they are considered more intimidating than demons but it’s just because they’re super alien to human nature (while demons exist on a lower plane and have more in common with us). Angels wouldn’t fit easily into human ideas of goodness or benevolence as they work more for a universal purpose than for anything else, which sometimes means they are pretty harsh in service to the greater good. They exist so far beyond the human perspective that they literally don’t understand our emotions.

A better story than “the angels are evil lol what a tweest” but still making them the antagonists would be the conflict between these two perspectives.

I get annoyed at the “biblically accurate angels” trope because it’s often just a meme that people parrot mindlessly because they think it makes them sound clever, hurr durr did u know angels are scary ackshually. A lot of shit in the Bible is symbolic anyway (esp if you’re taking your ideas of scary angels from accounts of prophetic visions), and there’s a multitude of stories where angels take on human form or are otherwise described as beautiful. There’s more than one type of them ffs

No. 1738891

>>1738813
I think the show just wants to take the approach of having heaven be corrupt because, like the rest of the show tries to be, it’s seen as “obscene” and despite many people being so jaded about the religion, they think it’ll add a twist to their show.
Idk I hate all abrahamic religions and would give anything to not hear about the “evil demons who are after your soul, but who are basically human and misunderstood” vs the “uptight flappy bird idiots/goody-two-shoes who think they’re better than you, but will save you against the eviil”

Glad to know there's another angel sperg like me kek. I agree with you, the "angels are so alien/godly that their concept of goodness might come off as evilness to humans" is actually deep and interesting (and shows a tiny bit of knowledge on the matter at least), but Viv and many other literally just go "Aha Lucifer was an angel so angels can be assholes too! Actually god BAD! Demons are cool" which is just lame imo. I don't like religion myself but they're really just repeating Paradise Lost over and over again, but instead of being clever and researching they're googling angel and demon names and making ocs.

No. 1739564

Yeah I think at the end of the day all Viv wanted was an edgy background for all her edgy OCs to do edgy shit in.

It's just as several others and I thought, this really was suppose to be an original show but since nobody gives a shit/they were scared to create a new IP, it had to be attached to an already existing IP.

Inside Job was such a let down, wasted concept and main chracter just to be another bojack/rick and morty. The only episode i remember that i liked, and that actually used the concept of the show, was when they had to fire a person and they choose JFK shooter, which was a gentle old man. If the show had more episodes like that instead of episodes about Raegan's retarded family and other side characters that are painfully unfunny it would have been really good. Could have been adult Gravity Falls but decided to be the worst of modern animation. Rest in piss.

Why do you think they project all this onto fictional white males? I actually think the writers are “riddled with daddy issues” and are “sixteen year olds that haven’t gone through puberty yet”.
Fred is a nice guy. He’s maybe the most mild out of the main cast and generally easy-going. The fact they tried to pin him as entitled and douchey doesn’t make any sense or honor the previous incarnations of the character at all. Everyone in Scooby Doo, for that matter, just seems to be chill. It’s reflective of the original decade they were created in.

What makes this show somehow more likeable than Hoops or Paradise PD? They're all just the same low level adult animation churned out 12 at a time

I've heard a bunch of people repeat this sentiment and it really feels true. Velma seems like it was suppose to be am original Mindy Kaling show but the executives wouldn't green-light anything that didn't have an existing IP's name attached to it. Just feels like a bunch of OCs cosplaying as Scooby Doo characters. This show probably would've been more fun if they took that exact concept but used the Venture Bros' Groovy Gang parody.

I feel like that's people coping because they know this is going to open a discussion about animators virtue signaling instead of making good shows and the damage that has been done to the animation industry by letting people who previously ran Tumblr art blogs notorious for this kind fuckery be the people leading western animation. "They were told to attach the IP" doesn't work when we know the people making it were the same people making making race swapped Hannibal fanblogs a few years ago

No. 1743596

>>1743571
Well, that’s dumb. I hate this „new heroes are the old heroes‘ kids“ trope. It’s so lame and boring and never goes anywhere interesting. It never explores how the og characters react to parenthood or why they decided to have kids in the first place. It never explains why the kids are the kind of people they are today. All they do is copy paste the characters (in this case down to the clothes) and them being parents is somehow a justification for that? Just make a new show in the same universe unrelated to the old one. If you’re committing to the idea of a spin off why do you even feel the need to connect them to the old cast?

Sorry for the sperg but one thing that I absolutely hate about putting a darker skinned character in these shows is that, you cannot see them!! The art direction, bg design, lighting department, do absolutely NOTHING to make them pop in the frame!! Look how clearly you can read the random dude and velma just blends into the shadows! Jfc it drives me nuts, the character design is actually good and fun and it gets absolutely wasted on a crew that never worked with a darker shade than sicilian

I wish twitter would learn that Mindy Kaling's parents are rich doctors from India's highest social caste. They did not move to America because they had little and were seeking a better life, they moved to America because they wanted MORE after living lives that oppressed every lower caste in their country.
The show's reliance on these "wyt pipo" jokes falls apart once you realize that Mindy Kaling benefitted from the exact type of generational wealth and position of power over others she is decrying, but we should treat her differently because her skin is brown. Well, EVERYBODY'S skin is brown in India. What's her excuse for profiting of the backs of the downtrodden there?

Yeah. Like not to blog but my mom had like three different dogs with the same name while I was growing up. Same breed, same gender, similar appearance. It's a pretty common thing to do.

Who the fuck is this supposed to appeal to? I'm a zillenial, the demographic I assumed they were going for, and I have zero interest in watching this. Seriously, who looked at Scooby-Doo and thought that the problem was that there was a dog in the show? Since when were talking dogs a bad thing for adult animation? Bojack Horseman was a huge hit with my age group, and I don't remember anyone refusing to watch it because it had talking animals. And Scooby wouldn't even have to talk, but he should at least be there! He's so important to Shaggy, wtf.

Then again, maybe it's a good thing Scooby isn't in the show, because it spared him of being ruined. They'd probably have him be voiced by a comedian and constantly spew awful Big-Bang-Theory-esque one-liners.

>>1743617
This is what I was wondering, too. So these people who were friends as teenagers all happened to name their kids after themselves? Did they force their kids to become friends? Doesn't seem like Velma "assembled" anything if their parents were already lifelong friends.

>>1743655
The 60s fashion mixed with modern shit like smartphones also bothers me, but I might just be a sperg who has a lower tolerance for that shit. Either set the show in the damn sixties, or modernize the outfits a little bit while maintaining the color palette. But don't just be lazy and keep the same outfits (while also making the characters' faces look like clone high rejects.)

In light of the recent arrest of Justin Roiland, some interesting animation industry exploits have been exposed by animator, Nicholas Walstrom (otherwise known as Walrusguy). Walstrom has confirmed multiple things about men in animation, and also confirmed that about half of the things in that EZ PZ western animation industry expose are actually true. Some highlights include:
>Alex Hirsch is indeed a trashcan shitter
>Joe Barbera was a serial sexual harasser and PR covered for him, saying "He's just from a different time." This is one of those "open secrets"

Like maybe these new projects just fucking suck and none of these newcomers know how to make a decent show or function in a workplace properly because theyre tall children that learned everything from the cartoons they grew up on. If you've lost all hope in animation being profitable as a company, why do this? Why not make disney sitcom about a sassy talking cat #100? Of course you can just say theyre rebooting a known and well loved IP for safety, which I won't deny, but maybe they also just trust these creators who've been in the industry for decades without a single accusation of domestic violence, drawing gore porn or shitting in fucking office trashbins.

You want to know a weird coincidence? The Justin Roiland podcast that has got him in trouble where he says 13 year old girls are sexy, the podcast cover art was drawn by Kali Fontecchio, who dated known creep and abuser John Kricfalusi and also dated and was roomies with known creep and abuser Nico Colaleo.

She's @KaliKazoo on Twitter. What is it with Kali?

I used to follow John’s blog pretty closely in the early 00s and would also keep up with the blogs of the Spumco groupie girls he always kept around, Kali, Katie Rice and Marlo Meekins. They seemed pretty close for a while and then suddenly all stopped mentioning each other/drawing each other. From what I gathered from some people in that circle, Katie opened up to Kali about being sexually harassed and threatened by John while working on the Weird Al video they did together and Kali, who was either dating John or at the very least interested in him at that time, cut her off. She found the CP on John’s computer a while later and continued to date him for at least a couple more years while attempting to further isolate Katie by gossiping about her in their shared circles and cover up for JK whenever anyone tried to call him out. I don’t know the details of their relationship and she was probably a victim here too but she and Johns entire clique at the time have a history of being sketchy nlog pickmes, even after their association with John ended (Marlo is still friendly with him apparently)

Nico is a bit odd but I have known several people who know him and he seems like a social climbing orbiter at worst. He definitely had the hots for Kali even after she started dating John and they seemed close for a while but have absolutely nothing to do with each other anymore.

This is found even in Hollywood, a lot of people making movies and tv shows are schlubby antisocial outcasts who have a massive chip on their shoulders about getting no attention from girls and all the cooler popular guys who pull more than they do. so there are simple more unattractive, insecure men who love to have their ego stroked by media then normal well adjusted people that probably wouldn't even care about shit like that.

Think of every Kevin Smith film, the villains are always mean preps or jocks who get their come comeuppance, which for kevin smith means them getting shot, raped in prison or sent to hell, and this is framed as something the audience is supposed to celebrate

Hey nonnas, this is moreso a question since I haven't seen anyone else talk about this on the web or I couldn't find anything on it.

I’ve been kinda grossed out by Groening ever since the Epstein thing came out. But for what is worth, the girl who was forced to massage his feet (the same girl who was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew) didn’t really say anything bad about him other than his feet were gross. And this seems like the only encounter between him and Epstein. He didn’t seem like a regular pal like Trump, Clinton, or Andrew. I could be wrong and we may never really know. Even if it was just one encounter, it was pretty devastating to find out. His work had a HUGE impact on my childhood. I would watch Simpsons reruns every weekday.

Regardless though, his giantess fetish shit doesn’t really bother me that much. It’s still weird as fuck but his show aren’t really geared towards children but rather adults. And it’s rather tame in comparison to some of the stuff I’ve seen on this thread. At least Futurama kinda made it work regarding that episode. I don’t remember it being ridiculously fetishy.

It parodies 2000s teen sex comedies and dramas, so it really isn't meant for elementary school-aged children. The joke in that clip is dumb, but they actually have some hilarious and clever moments in the show.
It's finally getting a Season 2 after 20 years, and word on the street is that it's going to be 'woke' and have genderspecial stuff so I'm a little worried about that.

The New Notable Clones:

>Harriet Tubman: popular, confident, hip chick with a bit of a mean streak
>Confucius: popular, confident, hip dude constantly on flipflop. actually gives terrible advice, contrary to the wisdom of his clone father.
>Sacagawea: popular, confident, smart chick
>Christopher Columbus: politically correct white dude who goes by the name Topher Bus to "distance himself from his clone father" who got "cancelled for being a dirtbag"

>character (the son of Mr. and Mrs. Bighead) comes out as trans.
>Main trio's immediate reaction is "That's so cool!!!"

It was hard to watch.

I can't stand fucking riggermortys by Dan Radlib Shyster and Pedo Roiland, bit I understand why Adult Swim can't cancel it, Rick and Morty is this generation's family guy, it is a gangbusters success and easily the most profitable property Adult Swim has ever produced. Nothing comes close. WB/Discovery is in a pretty desperate situation right now, they are billions in debt and are actively trying to stop the bleeding (in the worst, most short-term ways possible at that).
Rick and Morty will most certainly fail without Justin Roiland at the helm, which makes me happy. Especially because now every episode is tainted by the felony charges and creepy dms from Crusty Justy. But it's also a bittersweet moment, because now Adult Swim is done for certain. I knew their death was long telegraphed, especially after Discovery bought out WB, but I thought we'd optimistically another six years, now I don't even know if we'll have half that. I guess it's for the best, adult swim certainly is definitely past its prime, and barring a few exceptions its obvious that the talent is no longer there.

‘King Of The Hill’ Revival Ordered By Hulu

>Hulu is laying out the welcome Matt for the Hill Family: the streamer is reviving King of the Hill from 20th Television Animation, with co-creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels set to return, as well as the beloved former cast.


>Judge will reprise his role as Hank Hill, while Kathy Najimy will be back as his wife Peggy, Stephen Root as Bill, Pamela Adlon as Bobby Hill, Johnny Hardwick as Dale and Lauren Tom as Minh.


>The show, set in the fictional Arlen, Texas, follows the life of Hank Hill, an enthusiastic seller of propane and propane accessories; his wife, Peggy, the local Boggle champ and substitute teacher; and their 13-year-old son, Bobby, who defies any expectation his father had for a son. Hank’s friends — conspiracy theorist Dale, military barber Bill and cool but inarticulate Boomhauer (Judge) — along with Peggy’s friends Minh and meteorologist Nancy (Ashley Gardner), and Bobby’s friend Connie (Tom), help the Hills navigate a changing world.

>Nothing about Azula ever suggested she would ever care about receiving forgiveness from anyone.
Azula was raised by her father to be a crazy psycho and was emotional abused by him. Her mom bailed on her (to save Zuko) and Iroh was off conquering the Earth Kingdom and then drowning in grief. Azula's only way of survival was to be cruel and ruthless but that doesn't mean that is all she is.

IMO, the point of a redemption arc with her is to put her in a place where trying to be a good person is the best out of all options available even though she really doesn't want to. (Or she does actually care about her mom, zuko, mai, tai lee, but she repressed all that due to her upbringing. Going crazy released all that and now she has to learn how to deal, but she really wants to back to being evil, but these damn feelings keep getting in the way) And she learns along the way that not being a psycho is actually better. But I do agree with you, she really shouldn't be going around seeking forgiveness. It should more be like Faith's where she went to jail, did her time, broke out to save the world and lowkey made peace with everyone.

Anyway, I just wanted her to go out in blaze of glory against Zuko (my unpopular opinion is that their fight sucked) but I'm down for this.

Everyone involved in John’s circle at that time had weird shit on their blogs that pointed to him essentially being a cult leader to that group of girls. They seemed like the cool crowd to me back then and I was kind of envious of how close everyone seemed to be, I really wanted my own group of cartoonist girl friends to draw with but looking back, the dynamics were really unsettling. I remember there being a bunch of pics of them all on John’s bed at one point and the way he and his older cartoonist guy friends were always hanging on the younger girls never sat right with me.

This show is gonna age so badly in just five years. The entire friend group was being a bunch of pick me girls. I don't even know why penny was so disappointed when that boy said no to her when she already HAS a boyfriend. "Preferences are bad" What a great message to push Disney. I know this show Is directed toward people who grew up on the original and not so much kids but it is pretty easy to find on Disney plus and YouTube. Here is another clip of the reboot. I don't think the message of the clip is bad but just very fucking cringe.

90% of today's children's media is also targeted adults. Which makes me worry that children are forced to grow up faster because the subjects their media is dealing with. I haven't seen the episode so I don't know if the boy they are talking about is in the wrong for hating girls of color, or if the girls are in the wrong for being against interracial couples. It's not that children aren't aware of any of these issues but there must be a better way to approach this when talking to children. I don't think it's wrong to talk about racism with children but framing it trough dating and have the girls attack each other seems a bit too heavy for children

Justin Roiland was a fucking creep this whole time and an immature lazy trubocoomer who was difficult work with, Here's a long Hollywood Reporter article about the implosion of Justin Roiland's career
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-features/justin-roiland-animation-empire-implosion-rick-and-morty-1235319366/

>On Jan. 12, NBC News revealed that Roiland was facing two felony charges stemming from an alleged 2020 domestic violence incident that occurred with a woman he was dating at the time. That August, he was arrested and released on bail. Roiland has pleaded not guilty. The news, which blindsided both his employers and his colleagues, was greeted with an outpouring of other troubling revelations surrounding his online interactions, with multiple women publishing lewd messages they claimed to have received from Roiland. He direct-messaged former Mad magazine editor Allie Goertz, a longtime fan who was prepping a Rick and Morty concept album: “Can you write a song about 9 Dick’s of different sized and ethnic origins hanging above your face, and then in the lyrics describe how they each splatter you with semen.” He allegedly messaged another woman, who posted the exchange using an anonymous Twitter account and claimed to have been underage when they began corresponding, “You should just run away from home and go into sex slavery YOU FUCKING STUPID FAGGOT BITCH (!!!) (Jk).”

>Over the next two weeks, insiders say, advertisers panicked, lawyers huddled and, ultimately, one of the biggest names in animation watched as his career imploded. Roiland was stripped of his lucrative overall deal at Disney’s 20th Television Animation, and both Adult Swim (Rick and Morty) and Hulu (Solar Opposites, Koala Man) released statements that they had severed ties. Roiland will be replaced as the voices of Rick, Morty and Solar‘s alien scientist Korvo going forward. Even Squanch Games, the video game studio that he co-founded in 2016, announced that he’d resigned as CEO. Roiland, who declined to comment for this story, is due back in court for another pretrial hearing in late April.
>To many of Roiland’s colleagues, the criminal charges came as a shock, but they also point to workplace behavior that has made them uncomfortable for years. According to multiple sources, who would speak only on the condition of anonymity, Roiland once paraded a high-profile porn star through the Rick and Morty writers room, openly discussed threesomes and was involved in at least one instance of alleged sexual harassment during the show’s third season, notably its first with female writers.
>More recently, multiple sources say that Roiland, other than voice work, has not had any meaningful creative presence on any of the series that bear his name. In fact, many of his former colleagues say they haven’t heard from him in years, and when they have, it’s been unpleasant. They note, too, that he hasn’t been on speaking terms with his Rick and Morty co-creator, Dan Harmon, for multiple seasons, and a substantial number of staffers on that show as well as Solar Opposites and Koala Man have never actually met Roiland, even over Zoom.
>Rick and Morty began almost blissfully. Harmon had met Roiland through Channel 101, a monthly short film festival that Harmon had co-founded, and he took a liking to Roiland’s subversive work. “I would make stuff that was kind of intended to just shock people, [leaving audiences] screaming and people covering their eyes, groaning,” Roiland said in 2014. Harmon, who had just been fired from his cult NBC comedy Community over his chaotic leadership style, was approached by Adult Swim — he worried, however, that he wouldn’t be able to “fit in” with the network’s renegade brand on his own.
>In short order, the duo sold an idea born from one of Roiland’s zanier shorts, an off-color parody of Back to the Future‘s Marty McFly and Doc Brown, where Doc repeatedly convinces “Mharti” to lick his balls. Unlike Community, where horror stories about late nights and brutal working conditions were well reported, Rick and Morty was, as Harmon once described it, “easy and fun.” In those early days, he and Roiland were said to be an ideal match: “While Harmon would be writing really funny jokes, Justin would get up and draw a really funny drawing, and that, combined, is what led to the smart, silly sort of gumbo that turned into Rick and Morty,” recalls a show source.
>Harmon, who has never been shy about his sky-high standards, was determined to make season two even better. “And when Harmon wants something to be even better, it means later nights, it means being more careful, it means saying yes to fewer silly ideas, and Justin is the king of silly ideas,” says a source. Harmon enlisted a few Community writers who, one insider notes, didn’t treat Roiland with the same kind of reverence that the Channel 101 writers had the previous season. The room became clubbier, and not nearly as much fun — there were now “Dan’s guys,” a more cerebral, structured set, and “Justin’s guys,” a zany collection of artists, “and they just weren’t going to mix,” notes a source. “Dan is all on the page and mathematical about story breaking, and these guys that Justin hired were like, ‘Look, I drew a turd with eyes, let’s do a story about that.’ ” (Harmon didn’t respond to THR‘s requests for comment.)
>By season three, Rick and Morty had hired its first batch of female writers, which didn’t stop Roiland and others from dood­ling penis monsters and other vulgar characters on the office whiteboards. As one show source recalls, Roiland could still be highly engaged and appropriately silly, though too often he was “surly, petulant, uncommunicative and grouchy, like he always wished he was doing something else.” According to another show source, he was easily distracted, too; the writers would regularly walk over to a Toys R Us, where they would buy action figures or Nerf guns, and “then he played with them the rest of the day and we couldn’t get any work done.” Other show sources say he’d derail pitches and interrupt with sophomoric non sequiturs like, “What if his brains were on the outside?” It reached a point where multiple sources say it was easier when Roiland wasn’t in the room.
>At some point during the third season of Rick and Morty, multiple sources say Roiland simply stopped showing up — and when he did turn up in the Burbank offices, he’d typically avoid the writers room. In fact, Roiland’s colleagues often knew he was there only because they could hear his dogs. Or they’d hear his remote-control toy car, which had a microphone on top of it, zooming around the office. At least once, Roiland sent it into the writers room, says a source. “You wouldn’t have seen him in weeks, and then you’d see the car come in, which was insane.” (A source close to Roiland points out that many showrunners step away from successful shows once they’ve been established to tackle other projects.) Roiland would make exceptions to bring through famous fans, of which Rick and Morty has legions; at various points, his visitors included Kanye West, the comedians on Impractical Jokers and porn star Riley Reid, who gifted the room a succulent.
>By that time, Roiland had a girlfriend, who became a fiancée, and he would talk openly about their penchant for threesomes. “It was something we just ignored because it was disgusting,” says an insider. A source close to Roiland contends that the threesome discussions were in the context of plotline. Multiple sources say it was also during that period that Roiland sent a female employee a “really creepy” text, late at night, requesting that she come to his home (they declined to name the staffer). “She didn’t want to run it up the flagpole,” says one of the sources, “and then it was just this really fucked-up, awkward thing.”
>In the years since, Roiland’s involvement on Rick and Morty has largely been relegated to voicing characters, for which he’d take no direction and record from his home. In fact, it has been years since anyone can remember him stepping foot in the show’s writers room, even when it’s been virtual.
>“The reason that I posted my DMs was to add to the mountain of evidence and the pattern of behavior,” tattoo artist Veronika Sweeney tells THR of the messages she released in which Roiland asks if she has a boyfriend and suggests they meet at Comic-Con. Former Mad editor Goertz, who posted an exchange in which Roiland requested that she write a song about a crude sexual act, says that she also received pornographic GIFs and propositions from him, telling THR: “I really think that he, in a lot of ways, took advantage of someone who couldn’t have been a bigger fan.”
>Old interviews that Roiland had done were suddenly being resurfaced, too. Back in 2011, appearing on a podcast, he joked that he would be attracted to “a fucking 14-year-old that looks like she’s 18 and [has] big titties” and riffed on Dateline NBC‘s “To Catch a Predator” segments. (In the same breath, he added, “I’m not a pedophile though.”) His work, which has long made comedy hay of subjects like incest and sexual deviance, was now being viewed through a different lens.
>his former colleagues have soldiered on, making comedy that no longer feels quite as funny as it once did. “It’s heartbreaking,” says a show source. “Now everything is going to have an asterisk on it.”

Except that >>1764380 isn't right about the writing. Roiland hasn't been involved with the show much after season 2. So not really much change. Roiland also only does like 3 voices so at least if there's one thing that's sure to improve its quality of voice acting.

Yeah but Roiland was the brains behind that success. How the hell are they going to keep this going without him. This isn't like the Loud House where you could the success of the show could clearly succeed just fine without much input from Chris Savino. Should have just went the Shounen Jump route like they did with Act Age.

Then Rebecca Sugar should’ve reign in the show, it’s hers afterall- and I know not every creative has an idea on how their project should end but jc, she really didn’t know how to tell her storyboarders “no” and just write the thing herself.
The style of directing that she chose for the show would’ve been better if it was like flapjack or adventure time, where there really isn’t an “arc” or full storyline

It really is a show that you realize in hindsight wasn't all that great, however I feel it COULD have been much better if they had realized where they wanted to go with the show and characters from the get-go and stuck to it. I enjoyed the way you could really still feel Rose's presence and influence despite, just like Steven, knowing nothing about her. It had a good start and interesting elements they could have built on if it had better and more experienced leadership. But now we instead have this weird mess that isn't quite sure what it wants to be, what kind of audience it's aimed at, or how to hold a consistent tone.

You got that right.

It's fine" until the narrative (randomly) decided to stop defending Pink to a degree.

since this is the unofficial cartoon discussion thread as well, can we talk about how much of clusterfuck the ending of Star Vs. was, it started off as a simple and fun lighthearted show and then out of nowhere it became a heave handed colonialism allegory
I will admit that I was so completely disillusioned by the end that I laughed my ass off at the idea of Solaria trucking a peasant girl who admired her into becoming a retard-strength superhuman for the sake of her monster genocide, only to suddenly look at her with disdain at the end when said peasant girl tries to genocide monsters. I like how she just completely gets away with all of it and pretends she never had anything to do with it, it's beautiful.

It’s when they started to really focus on the racial allegories between mewmans and monsters did I loose interest. After Toffee was gone it was obvious they had no one else to fill the main villain role which is why I think Eclipsa should’ve been a villain, it felt like that’s what they were hyping her up to be before her reveal.

Nah even if you're not black it's not wrong to point out that black men do this shit a lot. They often disregard black women or treat them as if they're race traitors if they so happen to discuss misogyny from black men. The fact that Dijonnay is still portrayed in the show in a negative light like she was in the original is proof that these writers don't really care about the negativity black women face.

Okay, Im not the only one who finds neon caffeine a little annoying? I felt bad about it because its common people are sexist when a YouTuber gets a new GF so I wanted to give her a fair shot. I really did but she's just so loud on the podcast episode she's a guest in. It feels like they let a 15 year old fangirl onto an episode and she can barely contain herself. She tries to joke with pan but it kinda feels like she's trying to mimic Izzy or something? Its bizarre. I dont see the relationship lasting super long.

A little out of box, but I’m kinda tired of all these showrunners trying to convince their audience that their shows are mature when they write like elementary kids and think that their shows are deep when it includes “imperialism” “death” ect. Like, yes, those can be deep topics but these writers completely forget that they actually need to implement context and they never involve it unless they need it for a plot point.
It’s like, I get it, that in the western world, animation is seen as a “kids” genre, and if it’s an adult animation that you get shit like family guy and hazbin hotel but holy shit there’s next to no variety for people who enjoy animation/shows that aren’t based on a day-to-day life

Since Pan & his gf were brought up, I'm surprised no one has discussed one of her past controversies, lmfao. Sage bc this is kinda old news.
Forgive the fact the video is by some moid with video game footage in the background, but it's pretty comprehensive.
TLDW:
>Neoncaffeine (or mango) manipulated/convinced an autistic man they knew online to go on a roadtrip with her to vidcon
>said autistic man couldn't discern someone using him over genuine friendship (no surprises there)
>mango begged him for a gopro so that they could film the trip together
>said autistic man supposedly had a loan from his brother to make the trip since he didn't have much of his own money
>mango proceeded to spend thousands of dollars from this man, apparently 1,000 was spent before the trip even started so that she could hire a pet sitter last minute
>much of the money spent went to covering hotels and restaurant food for mango specifically, apparently when this autistic guy tried to budget or was hesitant to spend money, mango would try over and over to spend more on unnecessary bullshit
>having him bend over backwards to do random shit for her with the promise that he'd be able to collaborate with other creators, but as of now, none of that has happened
>she states in a tweet about this situation that both her & Blake (autistic man who's the subject of the video) are autistic, but that comes off as more of an attempt to cover her ass
>tries to cover by arguing both she and blake were irresponsible with money, not just herself
FWIW this video was mostly based on testimony from the friend of Blake, but considering NC made her own tweets defending herself on the subject there has to be some kernel of truth here. I don't see what someone would have to gain from lying about a below Z-tier YouTube animator. And, tbh, her relationship with RT comes off as an insane grift on her end.

It's been mentioned before but I don't think kids past the age of 3 really watch cartoon shows these days which is why the ratings are also plummeting. I don't have children myself but I have a lot of them in my family, they watch Disney movies but not the the cartoon series and I've heard the sentiment from other parents as well. Kids mainly consume video games, books and youtube content instead, they just aren't interested in cartoons which is why studios don't bother catering to them anymore. So the main consumer group are actually meant to be adults, which just makes it so bizarre that these shows are laid out as childish as possible but clearly target people well into their adulthood with adult themes and topics. This clip in particular would probably work in a show like the Boondocks which already did this bit a decade ago but here it's just super awkward and performative.

i don't need to know all the trauma uwu of these 2 dimensional characters especially when it's written this bad. she actually thinks too highly of her characters. this show was much more enjoyable when the story revolved around taking assassination jobs from other demons, when there was no overarching "story". when was the last time they took a job??? that was the whole point of this show. this should have stayed a sitcom and vivzie should stop writing.

I'm trying to be as open minded as I can to this show but I've gotta agree that the emotional "depth" writing jus isn't really working for me neither. I get it's trying to be… A "dramedy"? but the way the characters are written is just shallow and it doesn't give us reason to care about their personal lives all that much. I was invested to learn more about Moxxie but it felt like everything was happening so fast and the dialogue just left a lot to be desired.

The only positive was no Stolas appearance. Spoilered for spoilers. Mob daddy, although for ffs Vivi get more creative with designs, had potential but fuck competent writing. The dildos and bed were pointlessly stupid and done for shock value. More daddy issues, yawn. The lack of any personality besides hot tempered badass wifu who is the muscle and loves her husband for Millie is insulting. Literally no fucking development again although not fucking surprising.

Exactly how I felt. I want to see action, the jobs these dorks take, the clientele, the targets, and how the rest of hell looks like since there's a hierarchy. I know I'm whining but the mob angle had so much potential to work with.

Another one of Vivzie's signature "poor bby gays" episodes. I kinda enjoy Millie despite her being a pretty one-note character but the "hot but violent wife" trope is getting old, they can't just use her as a violent deus ex machina all the time.
>>1786996
>mob angle had so much potential to work with.
The entire show in a nutshell. I honestly quite enjoyed the first season, it was chaotic and stupid but it was fun to watch (but I'm also a sucker for the "asshole with a heart of gold" character trope). This one has only been one attempt after another to give character's "depth". Vivziepop desperately needs a competent co-writer, because her ideas aren't all that bad she just needs someone to reel in her fujo side and help her understand pacing.

I’ll always root for indie animation but it seems obvious that Vivzie is writing everything from the lens of someone who is way too used to interacting with media through a fandom lens. There’s less thought about what serves the story and more thought about what serves the shippers. I understand that these are short episodes and they’re on a budget but if you’re a showrunner you need to get used to the idea of killing your darlings even if that means that your own sweet cinnamon roll uwu doesn’t necessarily get a chance to shine as “representation” for your terminally online fujo fan base. “Workplace comedy in hell” is a promising concept and better writing could effectively throw in emotional beats every now and then without sacrificing too much of what makes a fun show.

Vivzie STILL keeps focusing on the poor gay boys by using the same abusive dad trope for all of them (seriously, Stolas has an asshole dad, Blitzo most likely has an asshole dad, now Moxxie has an abusive dad) and refuses to properly develop her female characters. They're literally just 1 dimensional props to push forward the shitty male ships and characters.
Overall this episode was very mediocre. Moxxie's father reveal was barely dramatic, the shark guy was annoying and his attempt to fool Crimson was conveyed in like two fucking frames (also I was annoyed by how they kept zooming in on his face with the same exact grin, it's not that good), Moxxie's flashback was maybe the only nice thing, and then the resolution is once again Millie going batshit and killing everyone.
It's funny because Moxxie already did get some sort of development through what was supposed to be Millie's moment with her family, and now we could have gotten some development for her through Moxxie's family but no, it's just another episode almost entirely focused on him, him being gay, the gay shark, Blitzo being gay and his mob dad.
And a lot of gay sex jokes as filler because they really didn't want to put some well thought out development there, only sex jokes ansd ship drama.

Long review below, spent about half an hour yesterday ranting to my sister about the absolute waste of time watching this was.

Objectively the worst episode of the show so far in every way possible. The 'jokes' were a waste of time, the new characters were mostly filler and the animation was lacking.

I can understand how difficult and painstaking animation is: I've watched it all my life and seen my fair share of mediocrity. That being said, this episode looks significantly worse than all those that came before it including the pilot. There are moments that are hard to follow with off-putting smears and generally underwhelming visuals. The fight scene at the end was near unwatchable and so hard to follow. The dildos in the background (more about that shit below) were annoying as shit too.

The comedy was abysmal. I already expect mostly juvenile 'comedy' in this series so my expectations were low but HOLY SHIT. Not a single joke landed. Even more so if you're at least 13. There was a scene that was supposed to be serious between Moxie and his dad, Crimson. This scene has themes of abuse which is completely destroyed when Crimson demonstrates his homohate by… pressing a button that reveals all these colourful dildos that thrust into the air. Why? Because apparently this should be funny.

The characters are annoying (as always to a degree) but this shark guy is the worst. He makes strange quips about sex and his dick the whole time for whatever reason. Millie acts on another level of annoying this episode because she can't stand him. Even the soundtrack of the episode is obnoxious with the immersion breaking change in genre every time the shark prick talks. It's honestly the worst.

The only segment worth watching is Moxie's backstory involving his faceless mum, her death and his eventual partaking in the mafia. Every other second of this episode felt like a waste of my life.

I'd listen to the Ozzy song 25 times in a row over watching this garbage again.

Feel bad for double posting but yes. I write as a hobby so this is just my opinion but when people write for fandom bait it shows.

She writes like a fangirl and it shows:
-character depth is only explored through tragedy
-characters share a lot in common
-antagonists have very little nuance (homohaters, rapists and other scumbags)
-female characters are sidelined
-yaoi bait

It's a shame because it does take real work to manage a team and animate. If they had more talented writers working with the material it could have been great.

I thought I was blind because in some moments I legit couldn't get what the fuck was going on on the screen. I don't think I could properly see any of the mob dad shark underling's designs because they're intricate, stay on screen for half a second and just jitter around because the animation is choppy. The end fight scene is the worst, and right above is any scene where the shark guy is moving around too much.

To echo what some anons said upthread and in the previous thread, I hope that for hazbin hotel they booted her ass out of the writer's room. I don't even know if she's genuinely a bad writer or has terminal fandom shipper disease at this point.

There’s no way they’ll totally boot her out and I’m sure she wrote it in to her contract that she’ll maintain control in that area but I think they could salvage a lot if they just balanced her out with some other writers who specialize in the emotional/lore content that she wants but doesn’t seem to know how to write.

i just watched the entirety of Helluva Boss in one sitting because i wanted to see that singular episode and it sucked so bad i am just going to pretend it's not even canon. i can get over the OTT sex jokes throughout the show because at LEAST when they swear they half try to make it fit in/situational but this stupid fucking faggot shark character is just PENIS SEX PENIS DILDO WOAH SEX! GAY SEX WOAH PENIS and it was so UNBEARABLY annoying. i keep WAITING for them to develop Moxxie better and for them to develop Millie better but it just never happens (not even going to touch on the weird forced relationship) but now i have to sit with "gay evil mobster family" as Moxxies backstory and probably show plot and there's no going back. he deserves better goddamn it.

the ENTIRE episode was just buildup to a substanceless "I'M BISEXUAL uwu" to fuel more gay porn and some lame plot we don't need considering there's already the whole Stolas+Blitz shit and the government shit. either pick a direction or make the show episodic for fucks sake

honestly at this point i'm getting tired of this shit
this show isn't going in a direction thats giving me any hope that it will outgrow its awkward stage and be the kind of show i hoped it would be.
is every fucking conflict in this show going to have something to do with daddy issues? Angel, Charlie, Stolas, Blitz, and now Moxxie. Its getting fucking ridiculous at this point. And thats combined with the fact, as other nonnas stated, that show feels more like a weepy fanfic of the show it would normally be if it didn't have a massive fucking fujo and a self-inserting faggot at the helm, and that most of what the show offers in terms of humour is the same "cock, cum, shit, piss, fuck" shit that shows the showrunners have the brow-height of a juvenile 16 year old and haven't grown past that one iota. Looking back at the Hazbin Hotel pilot though, I don't know what I expected. Maybe they would cool off of that shit and try make the humour and conflict a little more subtle and dimensional? Maybe handle the emotional stakes with a little more flow instead of this constant swing between realistic crying and angst and le wacky dick jokes for the whole episode? IDK, I'm just burnt out. maybe this just isn't my show but honestly I feel like some of the smutty fanfic shit I've read has more depth to it than this. I wanted to care about these characters but if it's just going to be more of this, I won't even bother watching one more episode.

The drag queen boob fluff thing is literally what Vivzie intended though, I think you can find her saying that in some old speedpaint videos. I'm not saying Angel is a good character but she's making him especially effemminate because he's supposed to be a crossdresser/drag queen. There are other sexy/handsome (in her eyes at least) characters in the show that aren't that feminine, like Alastor, Valentino or Asmodeus and Stolas in Helluva so your psychoanalysis is kinda retarded ngl, it says more about you.

THANK YOU for saying this. Even pretty normal clothing (eg maid dresses, school uniform) has been ruined by people sexualising it, if you slap it on a man it immediately becomes sexy. Women's lingerie is seen as sexy on men just because it's 'women's clothes.' The entire femboy sissy kink is based off misogyny, the belief that being seen as a woman is both humiliating and sexy. You don't get that with tomboys or masculine women in general.

I don't even like anything Vivzie puts out (still respect her a lot for actually turning her work into an actual show) and I can't stand her style but the people obsessing over a-logging her for the reeee fujoshit sad gay lesbian characters!!!! have always perplexed me. Like what did you expect? It's an edgy 00's deviantart style, I don't know why people are so perpetually offended over it. It is what it is. It's like watching a show about sparkledogs and being all angry about how cringe it looks. But it's so harmless, it's not like it's a big budget HBO Max series that goes out of its way to throw every hip social commentary thing into a wall to make people hatewatch it like so many other examples in this thread.

Again I just watched the HH pilot and a couple of episodes of HB so I can’t say where she’s going with her show but it’s frustrating when something has potential but just falls short because the creator has too many yes men.

It just feels so outdated. The rivalry between awkward-girl and hot-girl trope has been critised so much specially on social media. I don't event think zoomer girls likes it

"YES QUEEN" Ugh why do movies choose to date themselves like this? Why even keep so many of these lines in? Wouldn't be surprised if they added in a "Spill the Tea" or some shit. They should have either scrapped it completely or reworked it. The designs are ugly tbh and I can only describe them as "Gooey".. I didnt realize the humans were supposed to be humans until it was mentioned. They all look so similar and boring. If I'm honest even the concept sounds a little boring. Luca already did it and I think it did fine job I really don't think we need to see it from dreamworks. People will probably go and see it because of the success of the Puss in Boots movie though. I cant blame them. But I don't think I'll be going to see it until some reviews are out atleast.

"Used all my life savings to survive 2yrs while I animate 14-18hrs/day, 7days/wk, for the duration of production. Also paid out of pocket thus far spending 35k. Not accounting for my time, budget of this film is 35k. No savings left & need help finishing!"

Anyway I was curious on your thought on this. Maybe I'm a sucker but I ended up donating to their kickstarter. I'm excited to see how this turns out but I'm a little worried about the animation quality being consistent and about the quality of the voice acting. Will it be good or be Mystia Cronexia level terrible I have to wonder.

I still don’t understand why ppl are praising this movie like a nominee. Like it was good, but not crazy good. Like, I’m convinced the only reason why it became so popular is bc we haven’t had a “good” piece of animation in a while
A little off topic, but I noticed that the ‘spider verse animation’ style and it’s incorporation of drawn 2d to 3d models/world build is becoming more popular and can’t say that I hate it in the slightest

A lot of things are retarded, but the way some terminally online zoomers react to it always reminds me of closet gay republicans being the loudest when it comes to homophobia.
Cartoon porn is a victimless crime and you can go "huh ok that person is fucked in the head" and just disengage. But a lot of those zoomers actively seek out this shit and then chose to performatively get upset over it after their post-nut clarity kicks in.
And when you check their twitter likes its full of half naked anime children.
This whole pearl clutching and outrage over cartoon smut is a super slippery slope because its conflating something horrible (child sex abuse) with something laughable (cartoon porn) which will lead to people making light of real child abuse and claiming people drawing naked anime children as a reason for them abusing children ("if they're allowed to do this, why cant I?") so neo-puritan zoomers need to be shut down asap when they start this shit over fiction or they will increasingly end up coming for everything that arouses them but messes with their puritan upbringing (homosexualiy, female sexuality, etc) and make it spill over from the fictional realm into the real one too.(USER HAS BEEN PUT OUT TO PASTURE)

I don't think it's pearl clutching to say that it normalizes pedophilia further and conditions people to be okay with it, the people defending it sound more like they don't want their closeted coom material criticized. Pedophilia is never going away but we sure as hell should continue to shame people for it. And most people into "naked anime children" eventually move on to collecting the real thing when 2D just doesn't do it for them anymore. Both are bad, you can't say being against one lessens the severity of the other, that's one of the weakest arguments i've ever heard. Like, why the fuck are they attracted to simulated CP in the first place?? There's no defending that. It encourages and enables attraction to/fetishization of children and minors- take the prevalence of lolicon material in Japan, for example. Those people usually don't stop at manga/anime or games, it fosters a desire that leads them to abuse and harass real life minors or consume real CP at least.

Honest question because loli coomer shit disgusts me too but when you have people drawing art of hyper stylized characters that are canonically underaged I always assume it’s because the artist is attracted to the character themselves for whatever reason rather than that they have an attraction to actual children, but >>1797487 points out that that’s not always the case (you can’t get much more stylized or grotesque than klasky csupo)

Sorry to mention this fandom but what you say really reminds me of how Genshin zoomers are headcannoning some characters as underage and will burn down houses with rage when they see a ship art of them but other characters that use the exact same character model are grown up and okay to ship, presumably because they find them hot. I find it very performative especially since they really do seem to seek out the content they don’t like to see.

In those two specific examples, it might very well be an attraction to the character more than anything because tbh anthropomorphic turtles don't stand out as attractive to certain people for the underaged/teenage aspect specifically, and Edd Ed 'n Eddy is, well… I don't understand the appeal, at all. However keeping an attraction to/fixation on them long after adolescence seems to point towards someone being on the spectrum imo.

I'm so sick and tired of "this is a personal story, it's based on my real life" shtick that all these Disney/Laika/Pixar directors pull out of their asses everytime they interview.
In this article https://variety.com/2022/film/asia/peter-sohn-disney-pixar-elemental-diversity-1235446566/ the director of Elemental (Peter Sohn) trots out the tired old song: "Maybe it’s because when I was a kid, I really didn’t appreciate or understand what it meant to be an immigrant, to come to the U.S., and all the hard work that they did to give my brother and me our lives… On the other side, I married someone that wasn’t Korean, and there was a lot of culture clash with that in my world."

He married a white woman (Anna Chambers) who is in the animation industry, so he's throwing her int
