Cartoon Industry thread - Showcasing the Spergery of the Animation Industry

Holy shit, all this talk of SCOTUS seething just made me remembered this video behind why OK KO was "truly" cancelled:
TL;DW in 2016 AT&T was gonna buy out Warner Bros to have a bunch of shows put on a streaming service (HBO Max) and OK KO would have its longevity dictacted by views rather than ratings on there. But when Donald Trump was elected he halted the merging from happening (because Warner owned CNN) and because of that, Warner's plans didn't pan out so well and OK KO had to be cut short in the end.

Whether or not you believe this is true, it's still funny to think there are some people out there having another reason to seethe at Trump because he indirectly caused the cancellation of a kids' show.

That actually sucks because I wanted to see Jonathan Davis voice the cactus guy again. Big RIP.
 
So you want America to go back to the 1950s when black people had no rights, women were confined to the kitchen and being LBGTQ would get you executed
Yes. Please. Let America be great again. :suffering:
So you think the likes of Steven Universe, OKKO, The Owl House, Amphibia, She Ra And The Princesses Of Power, etc are all garbage?!?. Honestly the past decade has seen some of the best animated shows ever
And neither of all you named are good. All of them are piece of wokistani shit.

I miss the old days of Exo Squad and Batman TAS... oh goddamnit...
Oh and DC Super Hero Girls with the best Batgirl ever!
Objection, Batman TAS one is the all-time best.

Jesus. It still baffles me that people are allowed to call for an insurrection on social media without being flagged/banned for it.

Anyway-- When I was teaching myself how to draw as a little kid, one of the first hurdles I had was drawing believable male vs female characters. This applied to any characters, including anthropomorphic types. My first attempts at self-designed characters looked androgynous. I had to teach myself to draw masculine or feminine features without them seeming too grotesque or garish. If I was drawing child characters, I also learned that specific proportions were required to make them look believable. I learned pretty quickly that it wasn't just "slap some eyelashes on a random character, and that character will suddenly look like a girl!" Basic cartooning books at that time had diagrams and graphics discussing the differences between male/female/child proportions.

To me, it just seems like laziness to choose primarily "trans" or "non-binary" human characters in animation. There's no pressure to keep any kind of body shape/form, to modify hairstyles/clothes, or to keep any sex-specific proportions when you're making gender blob characters.

Every single one of these is garbage. Even MLP is better than any single piece you mentioned, that MLP is just a 2003 Flash animation with a bigger budget. Best ever? These shows are forgotten the second they stop airing. Neck yourself.
 
So apparently there's some sort of drama/"queer hype"/whatever bullshit regarding a new Looney Tunes movie that looks hideous and cheap as fuck.
1656365430464.png

Judging from what I've been told and aside from looking like shit, the movie generated "hype/drama" because its the "first queer-friendly" Looney Tunes media that incorporates tranny characters, 'non-binary' gender pronouns, retconning a Tweety love interest into his platonic cousin, 3 minutes of the film are spent dissecting the song "Jessie's Girl" trying to claim that it's actually about Rick Springfield being gay and in love with Jessie and wanting to become a 'woman' in order to become Jessie's girl in a completely non-comedic scene that's delivered completely straight with no joke or punchline, and supposedly one of the people who worked on this retconned Tweety into being non-binary on social media. Its also apparently filled to the brim with the worst kind of reddit humor and forced memes. The abomination was released on June 14th and this is the first I'm hearing of it.

Has anyone actually seen this pile of crap and did the people who create it really sperg out when it failed?

It's real. Though the Jesse's Girl monologue is only 30 seconds and I suppose it's supposed to be funny, but it's definitely not the sort of humor I'd imagine kids care about at all. It also has a person call out "ladies, gentlemen and non-birdinaries" and the villain's main weapon is a magic feather boa.

I could post pics but the service I took it from disallows screenshots so it'd just be the closed captioning over a black screen. Edit: Eh, here they are just in case you want to know exactly what is said.

Wait, what's that noise? It sounds like someone screaming.

Oh, it's me. Carry on.

Fun Fact: The person who directed this, Careen Ingle, is also a writer for Jellystone, and is presumably responsible for the multiple Gender Swaps in that show...

Putting sexual preferences before making characters that look and act original is a downside that will destroy many creatives and animators alike. Who wants to be preached and lectured to by people like this?

Not even gay ”allies” will watch this and actually stomach it.

OK:KO was also the show that's pilot had a fucking sonichu reference in it and that's like basically all I need to know to understand what the show is like.

I learned pretty quickly that it wasn't just "slap some eyelashes on a random character, and that character will suddenly look like a girl!" Basic cartooning books at that time had diagrams and graphics discussing the differences between male/female/child proportions.
For me, I had to learn both from observation and biology it wasn't just a size difference that determined adults and children even though the drawing techniques (using the head as a measurement) were still the same. I still remember the day I first put (tiny Cs, similar to Ms. Keene) breasts on my drawing of my mom and she laughed, but was impressed I was noticing that in my drawings. That tidbit is relevant here because of how much these cartoonists are trying so damn hard to avoid putting breasts on their women for various stupid reasons ("Children shouldn't see a sliver of cleavage, the horror!"; "It's to avoid the male gaze and I don't feel like a woman anyway!"). The Owl House was kinda surprising in that regard since they allowed their women to have them, but that was only noticeable from a 3/4 angle and side profile and it was just one boob at a time.

Unreasonable decisions like this is probably one of the many reasons why anime continues to gain in popularity tbh, they at least draw correct anatomy regardless of style (hentai is the sole exception don't @ me).

I refuse to believe something like this is in a Looney Tunes special. Please tell me I’m having some bad fever dream.
