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

Even before his death, this straight to DVD crap was getting stale.
He wasn't even in most of them for the last decade, they got some guy named Jason O'Mara who sounded awful, like a nasal chainsmoker. The other actors they've gotten since are fine, but nothing special.

I have no idea if the writing for the ones without Conroy are any good, I never bothered watching most of them.
 
That CGI reboot of The Fairly Odd parents got an episode leaked, lmaooooooo

I saw the /co/ thread about it and, skimming through it, I just wonder why they felt compelled to dig this IP out of the grave again.
Someone in the thread posted a pdf for the writers bible: https://files.catbox.moe/w1lzs2.pdf
Some weird takeaways include:
- Cosmo kept his annoyingly high voice *sigh*
- Poof and the dog are nowhere to be seen but the former is mentioned to appear in a later episode
- One of the kids is non-binary which feels so off for a show like this
- This is some kind of continuation? Lots of returning characters mentioned in the writers bible and a character thats very clearly adult Timmy shows up in the episode

There's something very...off about the 2D designs being made 3D. I know it's not the first time it's happened, but it feels uncanny all the same.
Nah 2D-made-3D can look great if put actual effort in it. Guest animator episodes of AT are are a great example of this.

Technically this one is stop-motion but "A glitch is a glitch" is also pretty good.
 
Might just be Butch's designs paired with the garish colours, then.
Just the idea of transitioning 2D to 3D is a challenge. Things can work when given the proper tools. Lego Movie, Peanuts, Angry Birds, Captain Underpants and Spiderverse worked better in CG like they did in hand-drawn

How much is Blackrock/Vanguard believed to be involved as far as the funding goes? we already have two signs that one of them were involved with the black kid being the main character and the mention of a non-binary character in the writer's bible.
Edit: checked said bible andd found the non-binary character, and he's got the dangerhair.

In any other era this would be a joke where {generic_cartoon_boy} gets his head dunked in a vat of ice-cream and it comes out like that.
 
No one talking how off the intro sounds? I'm guessing guy moon may or may not be involved as I didn't see his name. Also, how long before cartoon spergs (*cough* LS Mark *cough*) start talking about the leaks?

Important Lesson: Never hire people who look like this to develop your reboot...

I don't get it. If you're going to have a new godchild, why reuse Cosmo and Wanda? Couldn't this be a opportunity for some fresh new godparents?
Modern writing is based on shaving white characters from established media while keeping just enough of them for brand recognition. The hope is that it will make enough money so it will get another season that will use the current woke cast to further reduce white characters.
