Western Animation - Discuss American, Canadian, and European cartoons here (or just bitch about wokeshit, I guess)

There is a metrosexual character literally named "Twink" in a cartoon made in the year of our Lord 2021.....and said character is NOT supposed to be a joke or parody, but an actual case of "strong representation".

He voices Spongebob, He is a famous voice actor who is all over the animation industry.
All of them. Because he plays SpongeBob.
Oh I see, I thought we were talking about a show runner or animator. I've only ever sorta followed like two actors, Frank Welker & Jim Cummings. They're both in a lot of roles & high talent.
For those who thought it couldn't get any lower than Hanna-Barbera, think again...

Western animation is such a joke. Wasn't always this way, it is now.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the reason Western animation is so terrible isn't because of tech advances or Cal-arts but because of industry cronyism. This amount of incompetence feels like friends hiring friends. And that's me being generous in assuming they're not woke political friends.

Animation is a comparatively small industry, is the thing. Everybody knows everybody, basically. Even if you don't know people, word gets around easily.

That sounds like it would suck, say the wrong thing, hold the wrong opinion & get blackballed out of the entire industry.
 
The topic of The Owl House's third season only getting 3 45-minute specials got brought up yesterday.....and its fans are inhaling heavy doses of copium:
IT WAS THE PANDEMIC'S FAULT.JPG

"IT WAS THE PANDEMIC'S FAULT GOIS!"
they had high ratings huh.JPG

Hmmm, I wonder why only a certain episode of The Owl House made it become popular last year....
gee i wonder.JPG

IT'S THOSE DAMN DIRTY HOMOPHOBES' FAULT.JPG

"You mean the corporations only care about our money and not the heckin' queerinos themselves?! I'm SHOCKED, I tell you, SHOCKED!"
an actually somewhat level-headed take..JPG

This would actually be a somewhat level-headed take, were it not for the pro-mask propaganda.

Face it, Twitterati: Both Big City Greens and Amphibia are doing better than The Owl House because they're both infinitely better shows that don't rely on REPRESENTASHIN as a crutch. Sucks to suck. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
