How come Lauren Faust was never able to make her own show? I understand the need for money from the big guys but can't she and her husband (who probably gets a lot of fuck you money of royalties from PPG) fund it on their own? With their conections, money and support from fans? It pisses me off she was never able to take off from her own, she has great ideas.

I just want LS Mark to release his fucking pilot already. He described it as ''tom and jerry meets bojack horseman'' which sounds laughably bad. I never though someone could be this creatively bankrupt, but i guess it's expected considering he's the worst cartoon reviewer, and doesn't seem to like art and animation besides a very surface level.

That hit me like a damn brick. Every Indie animated series is nothing but a pathetic imitation of one piece of media mashed with another, and that's all there is to it. They don't have an understanding of the media they consume and lack the genuine experience needed to create anything truly authentic.

It's what miyazaki said, that modern anime is shit because they just try to copy what has already been done rather than being inspired from their own life experiences. The fucking show is set in the early 00s, a fucking time period LS mark wasnt even alive for. He was a toddler by the time the new decade was rolling in. I am super curious about this thing because it just looks terrible and uninspired. It makes a bit salty though because a lot of people would love to have his connections and money to make their passion project come true, but he wasted all of that in the most uninspired garbage concept in existence.

The anime girl/breathy voice acting is all over indie animation.
This animated "pilot" made me rage, it's so coomery and while trying to be uwu innocent cute cartoon Network-y girly show. The yellow characters boobs bounce every second she speaks/all the time, it's so off-putting and disgusting (porny). The worst thing of all is the short makes NO sense, like what kind of world is this? They are weird shaped girls in a boarding school for what? Or is this the product of anime disease where the only setting can be school? Everyone has to be a student and go to school, even though it doesn't matter and clearly these characters are meant to be sexualized.

this felt like a children's cartoon except that the characters are based on religious stereotypes. Im honestly impressed with how dedicated they where to that one joke. The pilot literally ends with a party at a club and they don't even make a coke joke.
tbh i can't see this as a series. it's gimmick is that it only has one adult element but otherwise feels like an average kids cartoon but thats going to become old quickly. The only way I can see this lasting several episodes is if they gradually make it more edgy but then it would become indistinguishable from every other edgy adult cartoon. They could also flesh out the characters and try to make them deeper but no one is going to take a show that uses stereotypes seriously unless you pander to shippers hetalia another franchise where the punchline is basically just stereotypes sometimes tries to make you feel sad for the stereotypes but it's just hard to take it seriously because they are literal stereotypes. it's not a concept that is suited for angst
>>1927981
the animation is really cool. Another anon in this thread said that Digital Circus fails because it wants to feel like uncanny early 3d animation but it looks too modern.
this manages to look like modern 3d, old 3d and claymation at the same time. it's a very pretty style that adds to the uncanny vibe. I feel like Digital Circus wanted to have a style like this

I could see why this show has a following considering all the coom shit and the fact that people are really autistic for clowns now, but I don't get why the following is this big. this is reaching even normal people levels of attention. if you're not being a coomer over this show and you're a normal person who really likes it, what's the appeal?? I tried to genuinely give it a chance and I was just bored. there's really not anything special to it. at least vivzie's pilots had unique ideas (that she sqandered) and good animation. maybe I'm too adhd too understand.

the designs are so garbage mainly the triangle mc. could this even count as animation? it's barely animated.

i went to check the creator's twitter and as expected, all the females he draws are busty curvy coombaits with the exact same body type while the men look average and boring. picrel is a redraw/redesign he did of the powerpuff girls, he seems to be really inspired by craig mccracken (and giantess fetish art).

It's interesting how these animation studios are trying to cash in on going viral by creating the next tumblr sexyman without fully understanding what attracts the tumblr autists, and that it isn't always the one you'd expect so it can be kinda random (imho at least). The only one I can tell probably somewhat figured the formula out seems to be Gooseworks out of all fucking people.

nta but Villainous/Black Hat had an absolutely rabid following on tumblr for a while before it even started airing, but iirc it fell off sharply when the show wasn't what they thought it'd be (the crossover short things)/only put out a couple of normal episodes before falling off the face of the earth. Villainous itself didn't end up successful, I guess, but it had quite the tumblr sexy-man fandom while it lasted and could probably be revived without much trouble kek

okay cool, they managed to generate the aesthetics of a shot of cheap disney-esque 3D animation, but each one was full of poor movement, none of them were framed particularly well, the lip movements looked like the characters had had a stroke, and the pacing of each clip was shit– I could go on (especially since you know these are the best of the clips they sat there generating and regenerating). I'm not saying AI won't end up being used in animation, but it pisses me off that AI bros and the people making the AI pretend as if the results are actually worthwhile for actual production. This isn't there yet, and it's obvious that it can't make anything truly distinct from the data it's been fed. I also wonder about consistency, considering text based AIs (which have a far simpler job) struggle to maintain a cohesive 'train of thought' across multiple paragraphs of a story.

I imagine that big studios are going to heavily invest in AI but in the worst possible way. They've killed off any original IPs, so they can train AI on whatever they want to reboot this time round and get AI to write and sing songs voiced by AI actors. To be fair the writing and character design in animation are so subpar nowadays that AI is probably a step up from whatever genderspecial munchies they'd have hired. AI doesn't spend all day on Twitter shitting itself over cartoons.

That's unfortunate, the style and core idea had potential, but it needed more work on the pacing (especially with the jokes, say what you will about Helluva Boss, but it does keep things snappy and doesn't telegraph a joke's beginning too terribly, which is a problem with a lot of online media– not saying HB's humour is actually good, but it is a useful comparison as a web series) and the writing (too much exposition that didn't need to be there right that second or could have been conveyed visually instead, and again the humour is very… 'online dweeb' and might make a kid laugh, at best). The main character needs work too because his VA's delivery is kinda all over the shop (doesn't sound like he's good at doing the high, nasally voice and he has weird enunciation at points that doesn't feel intentional) and everything he does is too… obvious for his archetype. You know exactly what he's going to do before he does it. This sort of stuff is easiest worked out instead of launching into production, which is a trend for a lot of these indie animated shows– I get the feeling they rarely involve script reads and rewrites, multiple drafts and test animatics, or proper directing of VAs.

There's some really nice character acting (for what it is) and what seems like a well thought out world for all of these characters with existing dynamics to interact in, but it wasn't ready to be as ambitious as it was. Ah well.

Premises obviously matters, and some premises have more story potential than others. However, even relatively mediocre premises can create good art if talented people work on them. Take, for example, The Brave Little Toaster, which has a fairly mediocre premise that could have easily resulted in a forgettable film. Instead, it became a cult classic. On the other hand, look at Helluva Boss, which has an interesting premise but is executed incredibly poorly.

This is wishful thinking. Women and girls will gravitate towards content with male characters because part of fandom is expressing and exploring their own sexualities. There's enough media with male leads and fandoms focusing on men to last a century.

Apologies if this has been asked before, but why is Helluva Boss getting consistent episodes but Hazbin Hotel was picked up by that production studio? Was that the plan for HH the whole time?

And for that matter, why does HH look so much shittier than HB? That weird, choppy animation that isn't consistent between shots is only present in HH.

Monkey Wrench was always way too ambitious a project for Zeurel. He fell into the classic indie trap of focusing on making a thing, in the hopes that the audience would be there once it was done. Unfortunately the internet doesn't work like that anymore, if you're not constantly pushing yourself into people's feeds people just won't remember you anymore. I hate to say it but the loud-mouths, drama-queens, memers and coomers are the ones who rule media these days, and it's not just in animation. If Vivzie weren't constantly posting and doing stupid shit publicly and pissing people off she'd never have the following she does. Zeurel's too normal to gain an audience in today's drama-addicted ecosystem, it's why Lindsay Small-Butera is all but forgotten now, too.

Mentioning back to how he has all this money, he's only making the cartoon to prove he can make it. He doesn't actually give a fuck about making a genuine cartoon. He's only doing it as a big "fuck you" to people who say he can't.

Exactly, I’m sick of remakes, at this point it’s better to just do literally anything else than consume media at all.
Like seriously, if it isn’t catering to gendercult shit, it’s devoid of any personality or interesting ideas for the sake of not being too crazy so companies don’t lose money after producing the most mind-numbing bullshit.
I know this is just me preaching to the choir but what’s even the point of creating media even? Everything needs to get desperately hooked to some pre-existing IP from any past decade, if you don’t want your shit to flop, then you must add some TQWERTY bullshit even if you don’t really want to, even if your story has nothing to do with that, if for some reason you don’t have any of those things, you’re either a TQWERTY yourself or you use the faint essence of past decades and scream every 5 seconds “IT’S A REFERENCE TO SOMETHING FROM INSERT DECADE!!!! IT’S SO QUIRKY!!!” Or you add some unnecessary political commentary that literally nobody gives a fuck about and if anything, everyone is sick off already.
>inb4 be the change you want to see
Not everyone is a writer or animator or just has the contacts to just get up and say “I got an Idea!!!!” Because as I’ve noticed, animation circles and companies are just teeny tiny clubs full of scared people that are afraid of losing their money, which is valid I guess, and it’s honestly smart to just recycle stuff because in the end, to a child, animated Cinderella will be the same thing that live action Cinderella is, and that child will want to wear the dress and buy the toys, same as Spider-Man for boys and whichever dead horse companies can keep on beating forever.
Idk, I’m not even frustrated or mad even, it’s more like I’m just disappointed because with how technology has been supposedly advancing, you would expect to see some really crazy and cool new things, like more movies that are clearly made to enjoy with 4D technology, or maybe movies with graphics that look
better on these weird ass curved TVs, make the screen of the cinema curved too even, or VR direct movies where the characters make you follow the plot with them idk, things that wouldn’t necessarily work with plots that everyone already knows of.
So yeah, I’m done with movies and series, it’s like being in a constant groundhog day where all we can do is laugh at the new additions like not so undercover fetishes and cringe dialogues.

To be fair Scott in the beginning got dumped by Envy and regressed so hard he dated a high schooler because it was “easier” all his friends did judge him and then told him to leave her. Knives is a victim but I’m glad their relationship didn’t go further than what is shown. At the end of SP he does get a job at a vegan cafe and grows up. Ramona was always running away from her problems and would essentially ghost her exes. The league of exes makes her confront her past.

One thing I really liked about knives in the reimagining is she became a really good musician learning bass and piano in a few hours. Unfortunately she ends up joining Scott’s band as the keyboardist.

Scott and Ramona are supposed to be jerks. O'Malley has said outright that Scott and Ramona aren't good people. Because the movie was made before the comic was finished, the plot ends prematurely, ostensibly rewarding the characters for being assholes. The characters' arcs are more fully realized in the comic. Also, Michael Cera is fine in the role of Scott, but I think he's a little too dorky and likeable.

Pilots are meant as a pitch for a show's concept to both producers and audiences. Things like character designs and personalities can change between the pilot and official release of a show, but changing the entire tone or genre between the pilot and official release of a show is generally considered dishonest and bad practice. Viv is either a bad writer who lacks the discipline needed to maintain consistency, or a liar who deliberately mismarketed her show to trick people who wouldn't have otherwise been interested in HB into supporting her. In a worst case scenario, she may even be both.

Literally the kind of thing that would be laughed out of the room if it was made today. The comic was alright, I always chalked liking it up to being young and susceptible to anything of that ilk. I thought Seconds was better. It felt more adult and actually had a pretty to the point story about not being able to change the past.

The King is absolutely an insane narc. Everything in the reddit post frames it ad 'woe! The king did nothing wrong! He SIMPLY wanted to protect his people! Everyone turned against him and he was just trying to restore "order" with his spellbook.'
He is a straight up NPD clusterbee maniac who holds people's wishes over their heads to soft power control the kingdom, blackmails and lies about everything, and is easily corrupted by magic. He is mean to everyone, and even with seemingly unlimited magical powers he every woman in the story overpowers him with bookcases, long-winded questions, mice, and songs. Men be seething.

Sage because this is old, but Thurop Van Orman’s (creator of Flapjack) son who played live action Flapjack in the finale is trans now.

I can’t tell exactly when his son began transitioning because Thurop went back and edited almost all his old instagram posts referring to him as “she”, “her”, and “Blossom” (unless he has been referring to his son as a girl since 2013, which would be even worse). He turned 18 in June of this year, so he was definitely a child when it started. He’s still credited as “Leif” in Angry Birds 2, which came out in 2019 when he was 14, so my guess is he was trooned between 14 and 17.

OT but Blossom was an uncommon, yet kind of known, name back in the 19th century. Kind of like River as a name today, or Rainbow in the '60s.

That song was in the episode Something’s a Miss where Flapjack thinks he needs to get dangerous surgery to change his voice because people mistake him as a girl. It ends with Flapjack being happy that Dr. Barber could tell he was actually a boy (because he’s a doctor) and he becomes accepting of his voice, as his voice is a boy voice because he’s a boy. Flapjack had a ton of jokes that would be considered transphobic today, like 6:30 of vid related.

Flapjack was such a cool GNC character. You’d think the creator of that would understand the whole trans thing is BS. He probably supports fans who headcanon Flapjack as trans now.

TLDR Ang Vondra is animator that worked on Mighty Magiswords and other miscellaneous projects. Around 2019-2020 She got caught with a alt account where she posted shotacon and that whole situation blacklisted her from the industry and made most of her friends leave her. Now Ang's claiming because she doesn't have access to healthcare (she can't get a job) she's going to let herself die though that's been extremely vague last.
Keep in mind she claims to have several chronic illnesses and that she was professionally diagnosed with DID.

He has no understanding of fundamentals or draftsmanship but is delusional enough to believe that he’s eventually going to land a steady industry job because people like Kyle and Nico Colaleo take pity on him and occasionally hire him for cleanup work on their projects. I’m fascinated by people that draw for this long and plan their whole careers around art only to NEVER improve.

OK SO - After some apprehension, I just watched the first few episodes of Scott Pilgrim Takes Off and I actually really like it. It turns out it's a different, more introspective story from the comics and the movie and I recommend giving it a chance.

SPOILER: There's a big twist at the end of the first episode, and the story takes over from Ramona's perspective as she confronts her exes herself and reflects upon her relationships. I found it really refreshing. Also, apparently the show is making the fanboy moids seethe, which is an added bonus for me, kek.

tbf characters are changed from their pilot versions all the time. Sometimes, the changes are more drastic then Helluva Boss. For example, in Avtar Toph was originally planned to be a masculine adult man. This was the plan until one of the writers pointed out that it was weird to have a grown adult man in the main cast with teenagers and all the issues that might present. Additionally, the episodes of him training Aang come across as abusive. Therefore, they went in the completely opposite direction and made that character into a blind little girl,

I tapped out after episode 4. But I never liked Scott Pilgrim outside of the game. Painfully boring, hardly any jokes, ost is lacking. The show has an identity crisis because I'm not sure what it's trying to be. Fight scenes could have been amazing and are barely worth the slog. Also has some odd choices on voice acting, one of the characters just mumbles/slurs and I often don't know wtf he just said. Doesn't help that all of the characters are so boring and forgettable while trying to have this deep esoteric story.

I liked it when it came out. But is it me or does it feels slightly outdated? The humor and delivery reminds me of humor that was popular on tumblr ca. 2012. I know the voice actors aren't professional so maybe that's why it feels like that.
I do think its a shame that it never got picked up. it could work as a character driven dark comedy with some helllore sprinkled in.
But based on this short the dynamic between Socks and Jonathan is meh. they come off as "the sunshine one and the gloomy one but the sunshine one has a dark secret!!" which can get boring fast but to be fair this video is way too short to make judgments regarding character dynamics.
I do like that Socks isn't an edgelord even if he is obsessed with murder. He's an average dorky kid who just happens to have murderous tendencies which adds to the comedy imo. But his name and design is too tryhard quirkyI'm not only talking about his clothes. First time I saw it I thought he was a puppet or something non-human because of his button nose and super round face

I remember this. It's old as hell. I remember being interested in it at the time but looking back, it feels very 'of its time'. Evidently she's still making this thing, and making merch of it judging by her channel.
It's kind of sad to see, but it's kind of the reality, that if you don't have funding or anyone backing you up it really does take more than 10 years to get a project off the ground. At this point, if I was her I'd have moved on.

Also side note while looking for examples I found this article calling it the "Best Queer Kids Show". "Queer" or any term regarding sexuality has no place next to the phrase "Kids' show". How does nobody else think it's fucking weird to make the main selling point "sexuality" in a kids' adventure show about dragons and magic and stuff? Like, what? We don't even know some characters' favorite foods, colors, or favorite animals - why do these creators need to fall all over themselves to include who their characters want to fuck?

I've said this before, but I think her best designs come when she has a guide to go off or any sort of direction. For example, the Goetias were inspired by the Lesser Key of Solomon (although it's likely she did nothing more than a simple Google search). But either way, when she has something to work off of, it results in more interesting and organic designs.

i agree, which is a shame because dana tarrace is the only modern western artists in the cartoon industry who can actually draw. I fucking love her art, even though i have never watched the owl house(and refuse to). She's also the only modern cartoon creator who seems to actually enjoy drawing, her twitter is full of pretty art. Meanwhile rebecca sugar/alex hirsch/pendleton ward/jgquintel's twitter and its only unrelated tweets shilling merch or photos with maybe a low effort doodle in the middle. I fucking hate how lazy modern cartoon creators are, they dont see animation as art but as a cheaper more accessible alternative to live action. You can tell most never draw after they finish their shows, because they dont care about art.

That’s not what I meant, my point is that those social media artists who draw nice anime faces and pretty colors are lacking in fundamentals that Rebecca and Dana both have and can’t draw proper perspective, lighting, depth, gesture, backgrounds, bodies, proportions etc. Having an ugly style doesn’t negate the rest. I do think there are many western show runners who are lacking in technical skill, and use weird limbs and ugly stylization to hide poor fundies. For example the Infinity Train creator Owen Dennis, or the Primos creator Natasha Kline. Dana and Rebecca are both very good, I still think Rebecca is slightly better.

I love Yoshinari's work and his own love for cartoons really shines through, it's like the best of both worlds. He's probably like every other scrotey Japanese animator but I can't deny or disrespect his talent, his dynamic style is so eyecatching. I need to look at his more realistic studies. Anime is in for a bad time when his generation of talent all retire and die off.

I don't get why there are so few Western animators who draw this "perfectly", I am a little biased as a former weeb but even modern indies who are considered talented have severe compromises somewhere like low frame rate or lack of shading or the animation equivalent of chicken scratch that make them look worse. Compare Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust and Netflix's Castlevania since they're similar in style and mood, the former is impossible to criticize unlike the latter where people rip on the fight scenes constantly. (FWIW I think anime is slowly going through a talent drain problem of its own, just later than ours, and the 'best' sakuga there is getting worse in the same way: too much movement, weak storyboarding, abuse of digital effects and smears to cover poor colour blocking and anatomy etc)

most westerners involved in the animation industry dont really like drawing or art. Even the ones that arent amerimutts eventually grow out of it and stop drawing. Meanwhile, Yoh Yoshinari didnt just lend his project over to korean animators, he actually worked on the animation himself. I have also noticed that tons of western animators dont seem to want to get involved in ''low tier'' work after they made a cartoon. Yoh yoshinari and other japanese animators work on their passion projects and then go back to being storyboarders/animators. Anime is purely passion-fuelled and its the reason we can have such high quality animation in such high quantities. I love western animation, but there is such a strange heriarchy amongst creators. Western animators seem to go from storyboarders>writers>creators, and once they create a cartoon they dont tend to go back to ''lesser'' roles. Meanwhile, Japanese animators dont seem to have a trouble by going back to animating/storyboarding after they hit it big. It explains why those big name cartoon creators that graduate out of calarts end up being shitty artists, they dont really like art or drawing.

I just finished the show yesterday and I agree with you on Knives, I thought that she was handled slightly better here than in the movie and I love that they gave her something to do that wasn't related to obsessing over Scott. Her friendship was platonic friendship with Stephen was nice too and it was purely about their love for music, it was cute. And as incel-ish as Scott Pilgrim is, he did change in the end and was trying to start bettering himself when he gets a job so I gotta give it that at least instead of him just regressing and staying in his headspace. Honestly, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off wasn't the worst thing imo, there's much worse incel-lined crap out there than this.

I enjoyed the show too anon, the art style was so cute that I just had to try drawing it myself kek Not to shit on O'Malley's art style but I think it's cool how the studio managed to tweak it a bit and make it look so appealing.

What did you think of the voice acting? That's something that I'm seeing a lot of dislike for but I personally thought it was fine for the most part. It's true that the acting isn't very hyper or heavily emotive but I think the reason why it doesn't bother me all that much is because I feel like the show has this down to earth vibe.

To the people who want 2D animated films back, I really sympathize with them, and I want them back too (like, so much). But I don't think people realize the very specific factors that drove the death of 2D animation. My old art professor explained it like this: for over a decade (since the late 90s till the 2000s), 3D animated films were performing really well financially. DreamWorks and Pixar's formula of casting recognizable actors and using 3D, for whatever reason, despite the huge difference in film quality, worked. They were outperforming Disney every time. The same thing was happening with in DreamWorks. All of their 2D animation films were just breaking even, while 3D films were performing financially well. All it took was just a few underperforming films due to bad luck, and 3D gradually phased out everything. Now, the institutions for 2d animation just do not exist anymore, and it sucks. But we can only hope that this decade, the few 2D films that are released perform really well for the tide to gradually turn

I have to agree with >>1932815 that saying anime is purely passion fueled is a bit silly, but I think I agree with the rest of your logic. I also feel most "animators" in the US side of the industry actually don't care about animating all. Since US studios outsource the actual animation to SK, American animators mostly only actually do storyboarding, and it feels like they don't actually have passion or artistic focus on the art of creating movement itself. It feels like people that go into the animation industry in the US, instead of being people that genuinelly like animating and the animation process, are just people that like creating characters and stories (ie writting), so their end goal is, as you said, storyboarders>writers>creators, not actually animating or getting better at animation. There's also the question of western academia focusing less on actual draftsmanship.
There's also the way western tv cartoons are made to be low budget, but all the high budget (ie movies) productions are in 3D, so there's not really any motivation or proper setting for US artists to git good at animating 2D.

There are great western/american animators, but they're mostly old retired guys that occasionally do a guest appearance doing a couple actually well animated shots in random shows, or (mostly also old) guys that left the industry and spend 30 years working on their own project by themselves. Occasionally you also get pseudo-sakuga from some Gobelins student projects.

No. 1933182

>>1933167

I can tell you that you're right about most of this and part of the reason why actually animating in 2d isn’t held in greater focus is because institutions will beat it out of you and basically tell you it's either 3d, storyboarding or nothing. You don't need to be a particularly good artist to be either of those things but they still want, storyboard artists in particular, to do everything; timing, editing and audio syncing, even some in-betweening, depending on the project you're on.

If you look at professional boards done 20 years ago, you'll see the bar has raised and they all look different to the standard they expect now. So storyboard artist is the closest thing you'll get to being a 2d animator.

Procreate dreams has been out for a couple days now; what does everyone think about it here? Will it rekindle some interest in making good 2d animation projects, or will making it accessible like this yield a similar affect that Procreate did in that we're in for more crap?

I don't know how good it'll be at making full animation projects, it's definitely giving me the impression it's going to be good for shorter stuff. The tech demos are nice but there are definitely going to be limitations. At best it's like procreate in that it's a neat little scratch board or like a sketchbook. I could be wrong. I've been using it and wishing it wasn't an iPad exclusive, I don't favor touch gestures for shortcuts.

She casually talks about how "hot" it is to read about children being raped. And it's not limited to 2D drawings; she refers to actual child actors with adult men, and a few times real case of csa victims. any attempts to reason with her is useless, she'll reply with "it's just fiction and that you should focus on real children being harmed". she is an echo chamber which normalizes this type of rhetoric.

The skin crease detail on the knuckles has been exaggerated a bit to help imply their closeness to the 'camera' (and to make the hands 'pop' more), same reason why his feet have barely any detail or anatomical structure. Having a bit more of the underside of some of the curled fingers be visible/not conveyed through black lineart could have maybe helped it not look so odd to you as well. Also western superhero comics often just have more 'rugged' hands compared to a lot of common manga/anime styles, so there's that, too, if you're not used to it.

I actually read the comics when the show first started airing, and I enjoyed it mostly. However, there were some parts that I found weird, and it all culminated in the ending, which I'm not going to spoil. Basically, it involves the creation of a space Soviet Union, which is presented as a good thing. And that was the biggest example, but it's not the only one. Time and time again, the comic presents dictatorship as a good thing, as long as it's a good dictatorship. There is scene where a ganglord is portrayed as a necessary evil who keeps crime in check.

I just felt like some of it was pointless shock value stuff. Like the rape and resulting baby which amounts to nothing but trauma. and then the baby gets basically abandoned and gets maybe like 8? lines of dialogue in the whole comic and really served no purpose. And the forced time skip. And the death of a specific character near to the end. So many things just seemed to happen to make Mark sad and emotionally scar him further. I get that characters need trauma but it was kind of getting so excessive I found myself rolling my eyes rather than being concerned. Just my opinion though

No. 1934229

>>1934220
ayrt and tbh I wouldn't even disagree that a lot of that stuff is shock value, I just found it entertaining (did hate the timeskip though, but I kinda hate all timeskips because it always either feels like the author is cutting off or out something interesting, or it completely fucks the narrative momentum and both kill my investment). The trauma conga line for Mark did get a bit much too, especially when it just caused interruptions.

>>1933987
>>1934201
>>1934215
I feel like this stuff is almost inevitable when people try to take the superhero concept more 'realistically' (in quotes because what they usually mean is cynically) and try to come up with worldbuilding and situations to justify it. An example is the classic 'if Superman was real he'd be a dictator' take, which ignores the core concept of Superman as a character/person. A lot of these authors are disillusioned turbo nerds who got bullied and should never have power because they'd gleefully take out their frustrations on other people if they could, and their darker or edgier works tend to reflect this.

No. 1934256

Different anon here and I also think it felt like a plot device for Mark/the Viltrumites, especially because his rapist gets no development whatsoever, she basically appears and dies and he just has to accept the child but also doesn’t really? I feel like the writer wanted to dive deeper on certain plot points but yadda yadda 20 year comic, decades of harsh deadlines, etc. They just wanted to wrap it up. I also feel like they really wanted to develop Bulletproof more but that fizzled out too.

>>1934201
This also honestly just read like them trying to figure out how to end it to me. The comic is soap opera tier drama from start to end, and it also shows Mark slowly evolving into his Viltrumite genes but in a different way. That’s kind of what the different dimension Marks foreshadow, it’s inescapable for him. He grows up and he still kind of behaves like his father pre-earthing, and acting like a less violent and non-genocidal despot is how he does it. The show focuses a lot more on emotional development so I wonder if they’ll make him suffer trying to rationalize it more in later seasons.

No. 1934285

I hated how Mark turned his mom into a babysitter at the end of the comic. Like bro let her enjoy retirement. Just hand the kid off to one of the other viltrumite parents. I did find it kinda of refreshing how he clearly favored his daughter and didn't give a fuck about the other kid tho. Probably the only thing about that plot point that I enjoyed.

They weren't pandering to the small group of 4channers ironically watching the show, that everyone thought would be a passing fad anyways. Bronies didn't become an actual big thing until season 2, and didn't start getting pandered to until around season 3 and Faust was long gone by then. Bronies only really became a gross menace to society en masse around the time they stopped being fans of the show, and became fans of the fandom, just like every toxic fandom that ruins shit

Huge downgrade and barely make sense. The old designs were really charming and special and the new ones were just bland and generic.

Primos feels very offensive to me, but not for wrongly depicting hispanics or having an incorrectly translated title. Walt used to be a huge fan of south america, to the point he would even come here to tour small studios and seek out talent. Walt's first movies were heavily inspired in south american cuture too, mostly argentina, with gaucho mickey being the second short ever featuring mickey mouse. So it feels like they are spitting on walt's ''friendly neighbour'' old american values by making something so self-centered and redundant(the loud house spin off has the same premise). South america is so full of talent and inspiration that it seems like a waste of money to make a series about chicanos, who are just honorary whites and dont have an interesting culture to follow. I think hispanics are just very tired of how entitles americunts are over our culture when they cant name a single hispanic country that isnt mexico and refuse to see beyond their borders.

If you're talking animated sitcoms, yeah none come to mind. To be honest though, those shows have such ugly art styles that I'm not sure if such a character would even really come across as genuinely attractive rather than a parody of an attractive man that circles back into being ugly. American Dad might be closest because the dad isn't supposed to be a complete schlub iirc kek. Slim pickings.

Something with a more detailed and realistically proportioned art style like Last Man, Archer, or Venture Bros could probably pull off that kind of design if it wanted to without it feeling like a joke in itself, but I doubt it'd ever happen because the sitcom formula is pretty creatively bankrupt– even non-adult, sitcom-structured animation like SU falls into the fat/loser dad and teenage son pattern. Gotta be ~relatable~, I guess.

I kind of understand why they needed to get redesigns, it would be a pain in the ass to animate some of them because they're detailed, maybe not Vtuber level of unnecessarily detailed, but they had some particular details that would make it harder to animate, plus the highly stylized art with girls wearing crop tops and having huge hips would've worked when the Winx club appeared, now everyone is too busy trying to make characters as not only simple, but also shapeless as possible to avoid having people saying that they're too sexualized to be a children's cartoon.
I think some of the redesigns are cute tbh, they're not cool like the originals, but they're nice for girls, the original designs could've worked better as some sort of comic for teenagers and dolls with, idk, shoelaces for skates.

>how the fuck does she have money to pay for this level of animation quality when big studios cant even properly animate simple blobs?
This baffles me too, especially with Hazbin Hotel. How the fuck can she continuously have her whole indie show animated frame by frame with decent hand animation, but the project that was picked up by an actual studio is the one that gets the tweening treatment?? Did Disney abandoning 2D really salt the earth this hard for professional 2D animation in the US?

Okay, maybe that wasn't quite fair of me. It's a mix of issues. Particularly, it's ugly, and the premise includes viscerally upsetting aspects. Body horror is still body horror, even if the material treats it casually, and the art style being as ugly as it is only amplifies any unease a prospective viewer might feel as a result of the presence of said body horror. These aspects of the show leave it fighting an uphill battle for an audience, and I've never really seen anyone promote the show in an actually compelling way, beyond just saying "it's good". Because of this, I wouldn't be surprised if most people never even give the show a chance.

At the time of the Hazbin Hotel pilot phase, the money definitely used to come from merch. She made so much merch of something that wasn't even out yet, and a lot of people bought that shit. Hazbin isn't even out now.
But I agree it's strange just how much money she has to afford good-ish animation and popular voice actors.

I started watching Disney's Wish and honestly, Asha is bit more reasonable in the film because her main problem with the king not granting all the wishes is that when people give the king their wishes, they forget them, and Asha suggest the king that if he doesn't want to grant the wishes he should give them back to the people so they can remember them and try on their own.

Yeah I actually watched the first and maybe second season a few years back and it wasn't nearly bad as I was expecting. We stopped watching when they replaced the only good character's voice actress for being white when the character is mixed, and the new girl did terrible. The show was weirdly woke, or at least trying to be, which is odd when you're the cartoon every wokie you're targeting insists is child pornography.

Does ANYONE watch these straight to Netflix sad-sack shows for 20/30 year old burn outs? This has absolutely no appeal to me, starring a jowly middle-aged woman and another doomsday scenario. So much of Netflix animation is about death, end of the world, everyone dying, doomscrolling Black Mirror horror, woe and pain. I'm assuming it's just to make adult animation stand out by covering dark topics, but why does it always have to be the apocalypse and post-nuclear war AND a woman always ends up sexually assaulted, infertile, abused, and/or forced to have an abortion.

Adventure time had simplistic characters but colorful and appealing style in general. The main characters were also quite cute. There were some scarier ones but those are meant to be scary and ugly and usually were the monsters, it's not the default shape for the main characters like in Big Mouth or the Oye Primos and so on.

Both the examples are good shows, the problem starts when other shows emulate them without emulating the good parts. Look for noodle-arm-style cartoons and you'll find stuff like Breadwinners or current Rick and Morty that are simple visually but have none of the charm of Adventure Time, whose characters and writing and concepts carried the show more than its style. And Bojack had more substance than just "suffering and depression" or people wouldn't have watched it, but when you take the surface level mood beats and repackage them without at least an interesting visual style or interesting ideas to back it up, you get… Well, current Rick and Morty, again.

It was a meme at the time to dub racist and sexual Princess Clara from Drawn Together lines onto Twilight. I'm not defending that or saying I like it, just that that's probably why Hasbro didn't stop her. No one was largely questioning her at the time, it wasn't a big controversy that would affect the bottom line, her brony pandering brought in way more bronybucks, so why stop her from Hasbro's pov.

this is a good point, and the reason why i hate the last season. it lost all the charm and humour it had because the writers were so focused on making sure you knew bojack was a bad person. we already knew that from the previous 5 seasons, it wasn't subtle. but they had to get their pointless little lessons in morality in there.

the ace episodes were boring and annoying. even when they first aired, it was a tired discourse.

No. 1940964

>>1940885
I hate that they retconned to make it so that Bojack waited 17 minutes to call the ambulance for Sara Lynn. It's so unsubtle and over the top evil just to force the audience to feel a certain way about something that happened seasons before. Fucking his on-show daughter eventually resulting in her death should have been enough to cancel him in-universe , without also trying to make it into this plot twist thing where he totally groomed her into trying alcohol at 9 and manslaughtered her. I get Bojack is the type of unreliable narrator to hide his biggest sins from even us the viewer but whipping it out last second felt cheap and like trying to get ahead of the "Walter White did nothing wrong" reddit bros, which you're never gonna do.
>>1940645
I shouldn't have used the word charming kek. It was annoying as fuck now and then, I just mean if it came out a few years later they would have gone with him being a gendie and I'm grateful it was just a kind of annoying side plot instead of The Trans Toddina Show. At least the axolotl family dinner made me kek

No lie I kind of hc that the Axolotl is like that because of her sex pest parents. Like, it's on hindsight a fairly good reason why someone would be Ace if she just got casually sexually harassed in her formative years ( it was played for laughs but in reality Yolanda's parents would be beyond cringe I'd be genuinely worried for her). It's extra funny because the show shook their fist about being an actual sexuality while giving their female character a decent reason for "asexuality".


But yeah I kind of dislike the fact that the creators just exaggerated the shitness of BJ as a spiteful fuck you to reddit bros while at the same time expecting for us to stick around to care about said character after he does some fucked up shit because he's a Moid so ofc you will care if he like cries about shit lolol.

There were some parts about explaining what asexuality was after Todd realized he didn't like his ex gf that way for starters. It is sort of treated like an actual orientation that the audience needed explaining to do.

Thankfully there not very long tho lol.

No. 1941199

>>1941177
Funny enough it's not even what the show is really remembered for per say. All and all it seems to remembered for its depictions of Hollywood and its culture, of mental illness and depression and how the show ends up framing redemption and its attempts at subverting to various degrees of success the whole " silly adult animated sitcom" formula popularized by The Simpsons. Todd's asexuality is given lip service but it's such a nothing burger that its sort of skimmed off. Ironically this + being effectively heterosexual ( he ended the show in an asexual relantioship with a rabbit girl) meant the creators could kinda of eat their cake and have it too; they get patted in the back for featuring a "non heterosexual" or "queer" rep but it's by all intents and purposes a straight white man lmao.

But as other anons have spoken if released now Todd may have been some cringe Enby type at best and thus would have attracted a possibly more cringe fan base than it has and the ensuing bitching and moaning from those fans regardless of the quality of the rep. I just feel the Ace thing is also the only thing that could otherwise date the show since much of the issues they tackled are relevant and culturally a constant. If the show wanted to be timeless enough Todd would probably could just be heterosexual or they'd gamble and make Todd a quirky gay dude even if not everyone would like it regardless of how it was handled (i want to give the writers some credit by thinking they'd do a decent job at it).(sage)

So apparently, this was originally a fan song that Viv decided to make canon. I listened to the original one, and it's kinda over dramatic and heavily emphasizes the "forbidden romance" aspect. But what's intriguing is that it still portrays Stolas as in the wrong. He is depicted as arrogant and somewhat admitting that he's a degenerate who only tries to win over Blitzo with material possessions. Viv tweaks the lyrics subtly to portray Stolas as a victim

That said I think the overall vibe feels better than the shipping fodder Viv was going for (although this is only the trailer so we can't know for sure).

So I watched Wish with my family, and it was just okay. However, I can see why it received pretty bad reviews. The animation is choppy, there are TV shows with the same quality of animation. I really disliked how Asha was characterized, she's the worst version of Rapunzel from Tangled i.e just "quirky and awkward". And then there's the villain, again with a really strange characterization. His backstory is very tonally dark compared to the rest of the film. His lands were destroyed by plunderers, he lost his parents at a young age, and he spent the rest of his life learning magic and creating a kingdom for everyone's safety. This backstory is never proven to be false in the entire film, it's just there in the beginning and never revisited. As soon as the star is introduced, Magnifico instantly becomes an arrogant and childish character.
I have no proof, but I feel behind the scenes there were numerous writers and producers who incorporated whatever trope is popular into the story, resulting in a tonally inconsistent mess. It's not awful or offensive, but it is below mediocre.

I loved the way they designed the princesses in shrek. They had wrinkles when they expressed emotions, they werent fucking OwO-ified with the big ass ugly eyes and heads and tiny necks and weird shit like frozen. They resembled real women and they were kick ass. If they made a shrek style movie focusing on just the pricesses living their lives dreamworks style, i think it would be a big hit.

I'd go for an Encanto-style 'villain' with a tragic backstory who really tries to make things good for everyone but fucks up massively than for whatever they shat out. They could have gone with him being paranoid about the consequences of the wishes because of what he's been through. He'd think his subjects are trying to overthrow him by reading way too much into the wishes he gets asked to grant, and spiral into his paranoid selfish villain self over time. I miss the days of evil villains who were actually evil but those days are long gone now. If all villains now need a tragic backstory, can't they at least make the backstory not retarded and somehow relevant?
And while I'm on my soapbox, I hate how all female leads are now Rapunzel. Rapunzel was le awkward quirky girl because she'd been locked in a tower with a bunch of books and one other human to talk to since she was a baby. Asha has all her ugly friends and her family to talk to, what the fuck is her excuse for being uwu awkward? Fucking hell, Disney, have some consistency.

Dreamworks was always effortlessly better at portraying women than Disney but I'm not a fan of the hyper realistic style of Shrek. It isn't as egregious as the anime inbred looking freaks like Elsa or Rapunzel but I find it a bit uncanny and dull. I like nice stylisation in my animations.
Any thoughts on Goldilocks? She was designed to fit into the more stylized world of "the last wish" but she still has proportions based on real women. I think she has the best of both worlds. Her character was great too.

Shrek came out at a time where everyone, not only movie producers but the public as well was enamored with the realism 3D tech could do but it doesn't really impress people anymore. Shrek is also a gritty and edgy parody of Disney movies so the realistic style aids it. It wasn't trying to be a cute-looking movie.
I never thought it looked uncanny I like both realistic and stylised 3D animation and both have their place. Honestly I never understood the uncanny valley. Realistic animation age badly but I have never thought it was "scary" looking.
I haven't seen Puss in Boots but I like Goldilocks design and the movies overall stylization. Disneys style is buttugly because it's made with the intention of making toys. Goldilocks has some cute elements to her which the character is traditionally portrayed as but she also have "wild" elements like the dirt on her skirt and her boots.
It's a very refreshing design because you don't doubt it's Goldielocks but they still added some things that made her stand out from other portrayals of the character. I love her buns they are so cute and I have never seen anyone give Goldielocks buns like that before

Originally, both the king and queen were supposed to be classic disney villains. There was nothing subtle about them, and it really could have been great to have a classic disney villain. However, as >>1944599 pointed out, it seems like some producer wanted the story to be changed to make them more sympathetic. So, both the king and queen were downgraded as being well-meaning people. The king specifically was given a dark backstory, and his motivation was to protect people so that no one suffers and feels trauma like he did. You could have had a decent sad villain with this, someone who wants to do well but takes away the freedom and expression of his people. In the end, he would have realized his mistakes. But then, as this was being done, some other producer saw the success of Puss in Boots and Spiderverse and wanted him to be an over-the-top villain again without erasing the previous well-meaning aspects. As a result, you end up with a really confusing mess of a character, but at least he is a character. Asha, on the other hand, is so flat, and her friends are really meaningless. They have no reason to exist, and nothing about them stands out. I literally forgot about their faces as I was writing this.

Why do they do that? They look like 3d anime. Gross. Idc if its for the sake of making toys. Its not any harder to make toys that are shaped like the shrek princesses than it would be to make this shit into toys.

kek i like le quirky girl characters but i agree. Children adore Elsa and don't care about Anna some children even call her "Elsa's sister" which just goes to show how little they care so its weird they arent making more "angsty" characters. The quirky girls dont even appeal to their womenchildren fans since they too adore Elsa and find her relatable.
>>1944653
The queen looks really beautiful in the concept art. They didnt change her design much in the movie but I feel like her neck and face is longer in the concept art and her eyes are more narrow? It makes her look more regal.
O dont like the kings design though. Nothing about him reads royalty. Its not like I wanted them to give him a crown and big puff sleeves or an armor, but he looks like a mage npc from a video game not like a king. Maybe if they had given him gloves or medieval inspired jewelry or a more dramatic cape like the evil queen from Snowwhite, or if they didnt give him a fuckboy haircut he would had looked more regal
>>1944661
>Its not any harder to make toys that are shaped like the shrek princesses than it would be to make this shit into toys.
The reason why Barbie became a phenomenon is because parents realized that children prefer playing adult characters. Back when i was a kid most girls thought that the less "baby-faced" disney girls like Aurora, Meg and Pocahontas where the prettiest Disney girls lol.
Children still like baby-faced characters like Anna and Elsa, but its not like its impossible market a toy/movie with a less-babyfaced girl.

I think Disneys push for infantalised cartoon women is to appeal the asian market. South East Asian countries have alot of consoomers so its a market you want to get into if you want money.
Children in Asia prefer babyfaced toys and characters and dont like playing adult roles. Thats why Barbie never got popular there. Frozen was also a huge hit in Japan. Since asian kids prefer cute characters, and western kids are indifferent it makes most sense to make deformed babyfaced girls

another funny thing about Wish is how there's one decent song (the song was written when the movie was in pre-production). It's sung between Asha and Magnifico early in the movie, and it's oddly romantic. It turns out this song was originally supposed to be between Starboy and Asha and very clearly meant as a classic love song. So now it's a just another very confusing choice because their relationship isn't romantic in any sense.
