Inactive Andrew Dobson / Tom Preston / CattyN - STOP DOING SEXIST CRAP

How can that one sperg (and Dobson by proxy) imply that sexual dimorphism is lower in hylians when a huge portion of Hylian men have big strong bodies and full beards? I mean look at this motherfucker for Christ’s sakes:
Link looks feminine because the designers wanted him to look cool and appeal to female fans in Japan, and the reason nobody questions Zelda being Sheik is because nobody knows it’s her and if they did then they’d probably realize that a girl pretending to be a guy from another race is a good way to throw people off your trail. Random shit like that doesn’t mean that a setting in a kid’s game is totally gender special.
Besides that, people have noted for a long time that in OoT Zelda's Sheik character model actually has a different, noticeably more masculine body type than her normal character model. She's more muscular everywhere, seems to have heavier bone structure, and the shoulders and chest (minus the tiddies, obviously) in particular are quite a bit broader. Oh, and the hips are narrower.

The game never says anything about this (and obviously the meta reason is to throw the players off of the twist), but Zelda is a confirmed spellcaster, illusion magic is pretty common in OoT, and the Sheikah being ninjas are also big on illusions, so the very obvious conclusion is that she magically made herself look like a man. The version of Sheik who actually looks like a woman in the Sheik outfit is the non-canon Smash Bros version.

That whole post is the same Tumblrshit as the "two characters of the same sex are friends with each other, they're clearly TOTALLY gay!" except with gender instead of sexuality.

Pardon my vidya sperging.

This is going to be terrible. Look at the girl's mouth using the trick that cheap anime studios did in 1990's so they didn't have to redraw the face for each frame. And the Jim Davis eyes. Dobson is regressing again. Also the obviously traced monitor doesn't even look like it's drawn in the same style.

And who releases the lineart before finishing the comic? If you want to give perks to the patreons, sure give them the sketches, lineart, and whatever, like a "behind the scenes" kind of thing, but show them the finished comic FIRST, before the "work in progress" version, or else their first impression is always going to be the shitty, unfinished version. And maybe they don't even look at the finished one because they've already read it. That's basic "how to be an artist" shit.
Oh no, it's worse than you think.

Dobson does not give free previews of his unfinished work on Patreon. No, if you want to see that shit, you have to PAY your dollar a month. He does have "free viewing" of MOST of his finished stuff. Right now in the "locked" category most recently is his unfinished newer Ladybug comic, titled "Lucky Charm", "My First D&D encounters" (where he claims he played an actual D&D game for the first time in 2018 ) and "Unfinished Sketches/Comics" which he said he either "couldn't" finish, or lost motivation to finish.

More comments on that one sneak preview unfinished new MLB comic, where someone couldn't tell Alix was Alix and maybe mistook her for Nathaniel or Adrien because Dobson is shit at drawing and mixed too many features of Older Alix and present-day younger Alix (using young alix body but older alix hair and outfit):

for the baby yoda comparison: 50 year old being with undetermined amount of powers that constantly needs protection and can use the force powers a little bit totally = Woman with no explained reason can suddenly perform at the level of a Jedi knight for no reason and beats a trained sigh even though she has never held a lightsaber before.
Also, apparently Luke flying t-16s means not really flying, but Rey scavenging and using a stick means she’s now a trained fighter ready to take on a sith warrior.

Dobson would be more aggravating if he wasn’t so pathetic.

From my recollections the Zelda cartoon was mediocre and badly animated even by the standards of the period
Early installments of Transformers episodes had some inconsistency in animation, and didn't really improve until Season 2 (AKOM episodes notwithstanding). If dobson only saw the 3 part miniseries "More Than Meets The Eye", or even only halfway into season 1, he probably thought the series was uniformly badly animated and dismissed it as such. Thus his idiotic comparison where he thinks the Zelda Cartoon was better animated to the point where he said it was like Disney compared to Transformers.

DiC is generally recognized as a trash animation company back in the day, beaten out in that department by the likes of Nelvana (a Canadian animation company which ironically animated the Care Bears Cartoons). I well remember the character designs being trashy (especially Ganon's monsters) and while Zelda looked halfway decent, Link didn't and neither did Sprite (the fairy). Ganon looked OK for a villain (they slimmed him down a lot from his initial game appearances lol and put him in a robe). A plus for the show was using actual sound effects from the game (the sword-lasers, enemy defeat sound, coin sound for loading up the bow, activating an item is the same in-game sound effect as finding an item) and was probably the part of the show that glued most people to it. It made the show seem better than it actually was.

Every single one of the Nintendo animated shows failed to properly represent the game. The Dragon's Lair animated series was more faithful to the source material than any of the DIC shows.

I have no idea why people hold them up to such esteem. They had zero toys, the stories were bad, and Nintendo doesn't even recognize the shows as official to this day. Some canadian company owns most of the rights IIRC. They're like a dead end, an oddity in the overall scope of Nintendo.

The fucking CGI Donkey Kong show was better than any of the old Nintendo shows.

Most people don't? Most people who like them fully acknowledge that they're not great pieces of art, they're just part of our childhoods. None of the Nintendo cartoons of the day were particularly great, but they were pretty great for the time. (Keep in mind, Tim Burton's Batman was the best superhero movie we'd gotten, when it came out.) Not all nostalgia is entirely divorced from acknowledgement of flaws, some of it is just fond memories.

The difference is that Dobson and people like him can't qualify things like that... he liked it then, so it has to be 1) objectively good and 2) worth liking now, and anyone who doesn't think it's great is wrong and needs to shut up. He is that dedicated to never having been wrong in his life, that he can't admit that something he enjoyed when he was seven is not worth the exact same amount of enjoyment and admiration when he's thirty-seven.
 
I never like speculating that Dobson’s parents screwed up somewhere, because that give Dobson an excuse. His gay brother is successful and happy, maybe Dobson’s just an asshole and his parents don’t want him starving in the streets because he’s an idiot. So they make do because it’s better than the alternative.

"I just once wanna hear someone say 'My dad was okay, my mom was great, it's just me, I'm the asshole!'" -Jeff Foxworthy
Yeah, I never liked that explanation either. Especially since, while there’s definitely instances where his parents bailed him out or gave him opportunities he squandered, the thing that stuck out to me about Momson and Dadson is that they often did things like taking him to regular portfolio critiques and consultations with business friends whose advice wasn’t just glowing praise. Combined with what we know about his brother, that to me is more indication of regular support rather than coddling and Dobson is simply the poster boy for "can lead a horse to water, but can’t make him practice his life drawing."

Though while on the subject, I know a lot of people speculate that he lives with his parents or regularly gets money for them, but I’m beginning to wonder if he maybe had some sort of trust fund set up in his name by his parents. He’s around the age when those things become accessible, and are usually set up way in advance when the receptive party is still a kid, and his folks seem wealthy/investment-savvy enough . Which in some ways would be an extra kick in the teeth to his parents considering Dobson’s lack of impulse control.
 
I'm not sure they're that rich, exactly. They are certainly well-off, though. Definitely mid-to-upper middle-class would be my guess.
You don’t have to be ultra-wealthy in order to set up investment funds, just have to know what you’re doing and be shrewd with savings. I know a couple middle class/upper middle class families who have similar setups because of savvy financial planning, so I think it’s within the realm of possibility.

It’s the only other way I could think of for Dobson to be able to blog about children’s shows on Instagram and Tumblr all day and not be living directly off his parents. And it would certainly wouldn’t be big enough to support him indefinitely if he’s drawing out of it regularly.

The fucking CGI Donkey Kong show was better than any of the old Nintendo shows.
If you ask me, the old Atari-based Saturday Supercade shows (CBS, made by Ruby-Spears and included Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr, Frogger, Q-Bert, Pitfall, Kangaroo) were superior to the old Nintendo shows. The early 80s ABC Pac-Man show (Hanna-Barbera) was better, too. Hell, even Pole Position, a video-game based show done by DiC of all companies, was way better than LoZ.

LoZ got migrated over to being characters in Captain N: The Game Master, but it all went downhill from there as the character designs got WORSE.

Zero. Self. Awareness.
It just amazes me how he co-opted the tumblrite left's "I'm just so tired/I'm just so goddamn tired" in response to anything he doesn't like.

Also, if he can't think of something on his own (and blames it on him being a white cis straight man), that's not him being a cis white straight man. That's him being a racist moron that can't think outside the box. Does he think there's legions of PoCs that can't think of a particular thing or in a particular way "as a [whichever minority or stack of intersectionalities]" because they're not a straight white cis man/woman? Would they NEED the perspective of a straight cis white man/woman if they weren't getting it? Or are ONLY PoCs/ElGeeBeeTees capable of thinking of ALL the things? Inquiring minds want to know!

From the "hurtful things" awareness topic that Dobson reblogged:
1581673070504.png

Dobson reblogs this thing:
1581673119600.png1581673142726.png1581673174931.png
This falls under the heading 'Not even wrong'. Especially since while it's true that "pocs" are underrepresented in school shootings, what does end up happening with black kids that might be so inclined to do any shooting at all in inner cities at least is they join a gang and go do their shooting out in the neighborhood instead. (Also, spoiler alert, in the 80s they had to start putting metal detectors in some inner city schools because people were bringing knives AND guns to school. Dunno if they still have them but if they do it explains why inner-city schools aren't shot up all the time).

Not to mention whites are a huge chunk of the population, and the testosterone makes the boys more aggressive than girls, so yeah, most girls don't want to do a shooting. It's got nothing to do with "coping better" than straight white males. Bullying in and of itself doesn't cause school shootings. Bullying antisocial psychopaths or narcissists (or antisocial psychopathic narcissists) DOES.
BTW, the "fully sourced" link goes NOWHERE and cites nothing. The page is blank except for a single word, "gone".
I'd just like to add for the record: Roger Elliot (not a school shooting but still) was only HALF white (half azn), the Virginia Tech shooter was Korean, and while not a school shooting, the Washington DC snipers were both black, so I'd love to know how these people's PoC status "helped them cope better than a white straight male". It's like dude, that is NOT how "coping" works. There's a bajillion factors, including mental health status, and whether a person has a nihilistic mentality, or whether the person has sociopathic antisocial tendencies, which have absolutely nothing to do with race.

Dobson reblogs this for some reason and adds his two cents:

1581674583817.png1581674607945.png
I've NEVER heard of anyone forcing any non-christians to pray to God, let alone in the non christian's own home.
Only Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses go door-to-door around here (dunno bout anywhere else) and everybody finds them annoying
I've NEVER heard of people cold-calling others on the phone to spread the word.
I've heard of classes of how to evangelize, so what? It's better to learn how to do it properly than to screw up and do it badly or insensitively.
Yeah, they cross the ocean to be missionaries, so what? It's dangerous. It's not "privilege" it's following a teaching.
Telling others they are going to Hell is kind of a "judgy" situation that a person should probably avoid, but it's a weird situation because if a person is told they're probably going to Hell, but they don't believe Hell exists, why get mad about it? It would be like getting mad if you were being naughty as a child and someone told you Santa was going to put coal or a switch (to spank with) in your stocking, all while you know full well Santa does not exist.
While in the West the law is already influenced by it, there's many countries where it's not.
Separation of Church and State and all that
Radio stations and movies, so what? In the West at least they're free to do that, and people who don't like it are free to take their own advice when someone doesn't like what THEY make and "don't like? don't read/watch/listen"
It's like this person is only considering the West, and like, not the rest of the world, in the grand scheme of things, because there ARE places where Christians are legit oppressed. Middle East (like Saudi Arabia), Asia, particularly China, North Korea, parts of the African continent, communist areas of central and south america. Oppressed as in getting murdered, their churches attacked and destroyed, forbidden to practice their faith, etc. Being non-religious raised himself, Dobson knows NOTHING of any of this and is just adding to his ignorance.

Zero. Self. Awareness.

couple of things to unpack
-the fact they're saying it implies they do care.
-two of those three failed without the help of the white man, if they want to blame anyone blame Women.
-plenty of good movies featuring LGBT, woman or minorities have been showered in praise by the white devil, for example Moonlight or Anihilation-maybe the movies are just mediocre or bad on their own terms
-Speaking of Annihilation the fact none of these sort have either seen or it or comment on it buries their credability. I know they havnt because no ones seen it and Dobson never watches anything for grown ups.
-whose this 'we'? a reviewer has enough to success to carry clout then clearly they have relavence to the dialogue.
-By this logic why would anyone listen to the posters about more succesful movies such as Iron man or Batman.
-Are they seriously saying they enjoyed Charlies angels? because hahahaha holy shit.
-Dobson complaining about a lack a diversity in movie critique is absurd because the movies themselves are either rehashes or repeat performances of other movies. Charlies angels is particulary bad because it's the third remake of a franchise over 30 years old.

EDIT-
From the "hurtful things" awareness topic that Dobson reblogged:

It's pretty pathetic that Dobsons quoting teenagers telling tall tales because they like the attention. Although I feel bad for them because they truth is they never left wonderland, they just entered the spookey dramatic bit to distract them from the true horror of reality.

Its far far worse than you can ever imagine then being upset at lack of black people in capeshit. Far far worse.

As you said, it would bury their credibility, then again, what wouldn't bury their credibility? Many of them are full of hot air.

The 2019 Charlie's Angels was doomed from the start. Plus insulting just about half of the world's population is not the way to box office success, Elizabeth Banks being a poor director, etc.. Hell, who was the main star of that movie? Oh right, the chick who played Bella Swan. The one I remember is the one with Lucy Liu, Cameron Diaz, and Drew Barrymore. While it's before my time, the one including Farrah Fawcett.

When isn't Dobson complaining about something? Every time I hear "lack of diversity", it's such a cop out.
