Cartoon Industry thread - Showcasing the Spergery of the Animation Industry

More power to Matt for standing his ground against the Troonvasion.
Good on him for standing his ground, but did anybody really expect anything else? The entire industry is a hivemind and that hivemind doesn't like the Daily Wire. No duh this would've been the response.

EDIT: This tweet just makes me feel bad for him, jeez. Imagine tweeting about how you're feeling down on the state of hand-drawn animation only for the tweet after your next to blow up in your face and coldly remind you of how far detached you are from the sphere as shitloads of animation students deride you personally for promoting something else you felt was important.
Some of them being his own students probably makes it even worse.

Why is this literal fur-fag dilating about this? KaiserNeko is neither an animator (unless you count re-drawing mouths of characters in DBZ anime to make your shit dialogue match), nor studied any cartoon arts. Unironically a underrated lol-calf deserving of his own thread, instead of just being in the Team Four Star one.

I watched the movie, Matt Walsh was definitely doing the old Daily Show-style interview bits with stuff like fast forwarding through the professor, etc. I totally get why people would find him abrasive but at least I watched it.

I'm glad these people are getting a little look at what others actually think of them. Most of them don't tweet it out (and might be far less kind than Matt is) but that's what they think in private.
 
Yesterday Disney had revealed a theme song for the new upcoming cartoon called Primos

Local archive of the video


The show is about a half white and hispanic latinx 10 year girl and her ~~quirky 12 cousins~~ who moved in with her
during the summer break and lol so random adventures ensue.

And surprising to no one, the show is already getting roasted

The woman behind the show is a latinx she/they, so surely she has a diverse latinx cast for the show and
not bunch of Californians, right? lolnope, it's all Californias.

Following this reveal many people went to her instagram to voice their criticism towards the show
for being so stereotypical that would make it seem the show was made by bunch of /pol/ users.
As of writing this, she has set her instagram to private and made no other statements.

Following this whole dumpster fire, the voice actress that voices the main
character has decided to respond to the backlash in the most smug god-awful condescending way.

Made it into Western Animation and Disney General too. Can't tell you which first.
I don't know if it's got real likelyhood of flaring up but I would be amused if it does.

this dude is pathetic lol
imagine being scared that you'll be accused of lying about something relatively minor when you have proof of your truth in your last name
it has a fucking enye why would anyone think you're exaggerating the truth

no comment on the rest, Twitter is being Twitter
I just found this guy in particular hilariously stupid
 
I honestly would not think Mexican animators, let alone Mexican cartoonists, would buy the Americanized version of social justice being inflitrated for identity politics in kids' entertainment.

Maybe they're not really aware about how the "Latinx" fraud is not working or helping out other Hispanic artists that do not want to be known for just their race or ethnicity/identity.

It's just leftist hipsters being leftist hipsters assuming what Mexicans should be represented as. Having hipsters calling them, "Latinix" is making themselves even more racist than those who are allegedly deemed as one, and that's saying something.
 
I'm gonna pitch a show to Adult Swim about how Mexican Cartels are brutal, cold, ruthless motherfuckers and have very graphic animated death scenes featuring the funky town death. BUT ITS OKAY BECAUSE IVE LIVED THROUGH THE EXPERIENCE SO IT MUST BE OKAY
