Western Animation - Discuss American, Canadian, and European cartoons here (or just bitch about wokeshit, I guess)

[Commander X]

Actually, CHUDS, we're in another golden age of animation right now because watching cartoons where blobby enbies cry is how I practice self-care. Oh and they made a Bob's Burgers movie so 2D animation is BACK on tha BIG SCREEN baybee

The only 2D animated films we've gotten in years have been spinoffs of TV shows. Take what you can get.

Sad.

Reminded this had to pop up. Someone wanted to pass off his take of a cartoon that never happened, based on a 90's video game.

A simple photo would've been enough to get the message across. Bonnie saying that people who think her and Marcy shouldn't be together are "buttheads" just smells out virtue signal.

I didn't watch the video. But is that the actual message? So you can't ship them with different characters anymore?

Like I always found it hypocritical you had werdios online who would ship chronically straight characters with same gender characters (some cases became canon like the above).
Well shipping a gay character with a different sex character is consider offensive in someway.

I think it's less "don't ship them with other people" and more "we don't care if Baby Jesus cries".

Them being a couple became canon because it had something to do with the episode "What Was Missing" where Bonnie was singing to Marceline:

I thought fan shipping had to do with it too

Even though in the real world, there are plenty of people who identify as gay who have had or continue to have relations with people of the opposite sex.

This ad just looks and sounds like Artificial Intelligence at work trying to sound like a human for the sake of wanting “Pride”. Princess Bubblegum and Marceline deserve better than this.

I barely could get past the 0:10 minute mark.

That scene is what led to the shipping actually.

Is it just me or do the majority of these characters not look asian? Also, I love how they introduce a Japanese kid and make him a weeb. The only actual points of interest brung up about Japanese culture is... anime and manga. For all this talk about tokenism, they sure do love their racial stereotypes!

>tfw a random nobody on the Internet parodying a 90s platformer can come closer to the spirit of 90s animation than actual professionals in the field

Exactly. It's OK when we racially stereotype, because we're doing it in the name of DIVERSITY!

The guys who made Craig are white, so take that how you will.

The CalArts style has so many inconsistences that the lines between each category tend to blur a lot.

I can't stand how disgusting Craig of the Creek looks. I didn't think they can shit out a show uglier than Steven Universe, but they did. Bravo CN

True. When I first saw this, I thought that one kid was like some CalArts version of Jimsy from Future Boy Conan.

You just became that more based and redpilled in my eyes, dude. Future Boy Conan is an underrated as hell Miyazaki work,
