Cartoon Industry thread - Showcasing the Spergery of the Animation Industry

In all fairness, every role he would've been perfect for was already taken up by Tara Strong or a literal child actor.
True, but then again a lot of VAs working in the industry (such as one of the worst offenders Tara Strong) ended up being lolcows no matter the breed, and Crane is literally on the same territory
 
Chris and Zach have discussed Josh Moon and Kiwi Farms in a positive light on OneyPlays a few years ago and faced zero backlash because no one noticed (I don't remember the exact video, sorry - just take my word for it bc I listen to every single OneyPlays vid while doing chores and cooking). Now that Smiling Friends is gaining traction people are coming out of the woodwork to try and tear them down. Classic cartoon community shenanigans.
It was Tomar, iirc. He’s caught shit for defending Israel so odds are they’ll focus on him,

Indeed, and one of the more notable ones is Deadendia creator Hamish Steele, who responded with this tweet that he ended up deleting.

"arent there female comedians you wanna put in your show?"

Uh, no. I don't remember female comedian groups with the chemistry and sheer lols that Oney's group has on Slightly Artistic. That show alone MOGS female comedians.

And of course there's that Norm clip. There's always a Norm clip. RIP Norm...

Considering Norm is one of the most well-beloved comedians, even after his death, when it comes to who's funny or not.
I'll take his word over anybody who lacks the family jewels or wish they did.

His driver joke is still one of my favourites. He recovered from the hiss, then doubled it with the triple whammo. What a chunk of coal that feller was. (With a Hard R of course.)

It’s always these types where one questions if this is considered a backwards compliment. If they don’t do this to females, then they always do this to black people who are artists, or gay people who are artists. In this case, these kind of unnecessary of Culture War posts on X are always done by people trying to see things that are not there, and I’m glad the Smiling Friends team is too busy to not care about drivel like this.

Seriously, this kind of stuff is always looked at as condescending by nature and the fact that it’s gone out of control in the North American animation industry can just weird out anybody if they keep spouting nonsense like this.
 
Wasn't the store depicted in the comic a real life small local art supply store? Also the first sentence translated: "Four years ago today I said something retarded and people made fun of me"
No no see it's totally ok to fucking wreck small businesses because capitalism bad!
I fucking spit on these people.

EDIT: I just realized it's worse because it was fucking 2020 lockdown hell 4 years ago though it doesn't feel like 4 years now. You know, the time where Small businesses were whithering and dying because most of them were forced to be closed or had cut hours for "covid concerns" with only "essential services" being allowed to be open in most places which in practice was just fucking WALMART fucking being open? Yeah capitalism is SOOOOO BAD GUYS TEEHEE!

Nice to know this person is also Pro-Shoplifting...
The joke is supposed to be "lol poor starving artists amirite" but the artist (I don't think it was done by the one with the green-haired pfp) is just that stupid to not disguise her criminal activity/pro-shoplifting agenda.

'Course I know nothing about this comic and the shitstorm it caused, I think the New Guy strip was more widespread and palpable even in 2020.
 
I can imagine SB99 drawing this out with his fist clenched on the tablet pen, tears rolling down his eyes, snorting up snot constantly, while his body fat slowly eats away at his soul as he keeps whispering to himself "trans women are women, trans women are women..." as what is left of his humanity slowly fades away like a slow painful death eats away at a man who had overdosed on painkillers and is lying on the floor thinking to himself "take me sweet death."

Actually I managed to find one -redditor- who was upset with Tomar's mention of Kiwifarms.

Nah, GamerGhazi is the name of a subreddit. Used to be one of the bigger anti-gamergate ones back in the day. I think their logo even used to be fucking Anita but as the Reddit alien :story: .
