Cartoon Industry thread - Showcasing the Spergery of the Animation Industry

Are there any unions that are more unlikable, look down upon the working class and make things worse for the consumers than the Hollywood entertainment unions?

Imagine if one of their leaders became president of the United States.

Ah. That sucks. But posting on Bluesky will still get your art scraped. Artists just have to live with AI from now on.
Most sites at least have anti-scraping measures. Pulling millions of pics off twitter isn't a trivial task. But with bluesky designed as a "decentralised" "federated" site you're volunteering your art to every dataset on the planet. I predict massive butthurt when animators realise exactly what they've signed up for.
 
IMO that still doesn't count because the fact they're bears means nothing to anyone else. They could easily be humans and nothing about the show would change. This works fine to serve the show's purpose (make soy power fantasies and push retarded takes)
The Original show is way different than the baby one because that it doesn’t have as much politics in it
 
When it came to Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Durland, if you were suffering from gay brainrot back in the day, you could say it was an early example of dudes forcing gay stuff into a cartoon, but for the most part they were meant to be comic relief characters more than anything else. You really weren't meant to take them seriously like Ruby & Sapphire, for example.

What happened at the end is that Blubs and Durland professed their love for each other and then fired a cannon, as a way for the animators to throw the shippers/fujos on Tumblr a bone. (You know, because Blubs x Durland is "cannon"?) I dunno why the fujos wanted two hillbilly cops to profess their love to each other, but this was 2015/16, where the gays were high off Jailbreak and #LoveWins, and wanted anything and everything to be gay.

There actually were moments where Disney put their foot down, like when the Love God in Season 2 originally had a trans gender symbol on his necklace that got changed to be both a male and female gender symbol, and they removed a small gag where one of his potions caused two girls (I think) to make out. That was in late 2014, when gay stuff in cartoons was starting to ramp up after the progressives were emboldened by GamerGate brainshock.
Wow, damn - thanks. That's pretty sad. I was hoping to not see that shit but oh well. I guess Hirsch couldn't help but do what he did, huh?

And damn, thanks for the image. I guess that puts it to the proof.
 
Speaking of the election, apparently a whole episode of Disney's Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur got scrapped because of the election outcome apparently...

And unsurprisingly it was gonna be all about the trans character.

Really hope Steve Loter (YES, Kim Possible and Ren and Stimpy alumni, Steve Loter) gets to work on a better show than this. On the side note, I also remember hearing online that this episode was in production when the whole Ron Desantis v Disney stuff was going on. So it’s doubtful that the election was the reason why the Brooklyn episode got pulled
 
Starting over from scratch.
That's legit pipe dream territory. The sheer amount of time, effort, and especially money it would take to build a 2nd Cartoon Industry, on top of having to make sure that bad actors do not get involved as easily through mass amounts of gatekeeping and tard-wrangling would just amount to being such a herculean task.

And that's on top of making great animated shows and movies that stand toe-to-toe with the quality and production values of some of the greats from previous generations/decades, and having to compete with the current industry (its current state aside) and the rise of indie animation (attracting "the worst autists" aside).
 
I think It will people making there own things with AI and/or programs and sharing with others. It's almost at that point and are if you think about it. Animation as we know it will be a thing of the past.
I feel like saying "AI will kill animation" holds the same amount of weight as all the people back in the day who said "TV will kill print, radio or theaters". At the very least, there will always be a niche for it.
