It has the same high quality of an Elsagate style video.

 

[Desire Lines]

looks like shit

EDIT: hey, let's compare animation for a moment!

New (recorded on a whim, sorry for the cursor):

vs Old:

look at the way energy travels through his body on the second one really fluidly, and how stiff it is one the first gif

verdict: it sure is shit

I wanna see Popeye fightins them A-rabs again likes he done with Ali Baba.

Seriously the color Max Fleischer Popeyes are kickass.

Isn’t Popeye public domain now? Edit: only in Europe.

I don't really watch Popeye much, just stumbled upon it on 8chan's /co/ which I find pretty fascinating.

Tartakovsky's movie died for this.

How do we still have living Popeye purists lmao

I have three answers to offer
1) People appreciate old cartoons in general for their inherent value in the history of animation and thus dislike it when attempts to "modernize" them are made since this is seen as utterly pointless at best (since comedy tastes have moved on so much since the time these cartoons were out that trying to refit them to modern times would change most everything thats endearing about them) and cheapening the brand at worst

2) People really fucking hate cheap ass early 2000s flash animation as a matter of principle

3) Latin america. Seriously those fuckers are as obsessed with old murican cartoons as they are modern jap cartoons

 

[Stress Sigh]

Can we let the dead rest please?

 

[Nekromantik]

Popeye isn't supposed to have big googly eyes like that.

 

[omori]

Who hired some goanimate sperg for this

 

[Judge Holden]

Honestly im seriously looking forward to what these fuckers do to Betty Boop. Given the perrenial REEEEEEEEing about the character being whitewashed from a proud black womyn I genuinely am hyped to see her resurrected in a series of youtube shorts with early David Firth tier animation returned to her superior black skin and now with this stunning and brave new body type

 

[The Flawless Gazelles]

meh

 

[Lunete]

lol kids these days don't even know who Popeye is.
Growing up I only knew Popeye as the guy on spinach cans.

Be thankful you are allowed to die with something of dignity instead of being unceremoniously dredged up and have a stick shoved up your ass to shoddily entertain people who most likely never heard of you.

I dread the point when we can raise the actual dead they'll do similar shit to us.
