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

I got some bad news for Ed, Edd, & Eddy fans: it's the latest CN show to become infected with the Funko Pop virus. Apologies for the ultra-gay Funko influencer tags, I can't find a version without 'em.

If I'm being painfully honest here there not THAT bad, I'd put 'em on the same level as Ren and Stimpy's. I give 'em props for giving Ed a chase in the form of Pebble-in-Shoe Ed but they get a thumbs-down for making Sarah POP in general (and it's a Funko Shop exclusive on top that).

How are these still a thing? Beanie babies WISHES it had the staying power pops had.

They had non-binary messaging, which is cringe and gay

I don't remember Martian Girl being called non binary, I know when they brought the show back they shoved in a lot of modern politics, but when was this mentioned regarding white martians?

It was Halo who was ‘non-binary’, and Muslim, and since nonbinary isn’t real, also a lesbian.

Anyone remember when the show was about sidekicks going on covert ops missions? Now we get to follow Beast Boy and his drug addiction and rehabilitation. Because, yeah, thats what I everyone wants in a superhero show. Who wants to watch heroes punching badguys.

Personal shit is fine when it's balanced, but Young Justice ended up having a billion new characters so each one felt less unique as a result.

The original comment was that Martian Girl had tranny implications for her true form which is false and I'm glad my friend told me never to watch the new season when they brought it back.

They’re cheap to make and Funko is willing to pay for good licenses.

Just be thankful that Nintendo has the scruples to say no to Funko’s requests for a license.And no, they didn’t have a hand in giving Funko got the license to make Pokémon POPs. That one’s on The Pokémon Company International’s hands.

I wish I had a friend like yours. I made the unfortunate mistake of watching both new seasons.

Side note: What the fuck happened to Weisman? Was he always like this and the studios had the sense to reel him in or did the mind virus at the time just spread to him?

Beast Boy and his drug addiction and rehabilitation.

And people said ttg was the worst thing to happen to beast boy.

Based on interviews it seems he was always like this and you can infer that networks kept him on a leash.

I get faint venture bros vines from this. It's almost been two years since this released.

This is the most badly aged comic I've read, not because it's racist or anything but by all metric Anime has wiped Cartoon's ass in humiliating fashion. This comic has to be some form of satire at the cost of cartoons because it wasn't written in any form of irony it blatantly projecting.

Someone should do a follow up revealing half those American toons and anime were made overseas or outsourced and respective countries like South Korea, Philippines, Taiwan etc come to take them back like have them pull each cartoon or anime character by the ear like an angry parent dragging their misbehaving brats away to their country.

I dunno Santa was a real jerk

I honestly don’t get what his problem was.

A bit of test footage from cancelled Disney film Wild Life has leaked. This was Disney's first attempt at a full cgi animated film without pixar in the late 90s. It's known for being a project that pissed off Roy E Disney to the point of him dropping the ban hammer on it during production for not being suitable for children.

 

[Quijibo69]

The 7up Spots from the 80's look better animated than that, no wonder it was canned!

It actually feels like a combination of Zootopia, Cats Don't Dance, Igor, and Foodfight. The video's description has a link to a Drawing for Nothing article that's pretty informative. Ella reminds me of Bing Bong from Inside Out in some of her concept art.

Spoiler: Summary and character bios

Spoiler: Environments

The book is also a goldmine for environmental concept art. This is a snippet of Wild Life alone.

Reminds me of Shark Tale for some reason if Sega made it. Was there a script that was ever leaked so we know what the premise exactly was?

Keep in mind depending on exactly when in the late 90s they started working on it, the only cgi animated films were toy story 1 and 2, antz and bugs life. Even for Disney having only a handful of examples to work off and zero help from their once golden goose pixar left them facing an uphill battle.
