Chuck Jones, I am truly glad you're not alive to see this.

Chuck Jones was well aware that the gay community saw a kindred spirit in Bugs, even if he intended it as a joke.

Poor Chuck. A shame how modern audiences have ruined Bugs and even Pepe.

I also feel for poor Mel Blanc if he lived to see this.

 

[UnsufficentBoobage]

This sparks a memory.

Laughing and fun are not one and the same, tho. This shit is how we got Quips and Nothing Is Ever Serious (I actually disliked Animaniacs as a kid, as I found everyone unlikeable).

Bugs Bunny Pride

Adventure Time Pride
>2.2k likes
>1.4k dislikes

I swear Warner Discovery is just getting desperate to appease to the mass.

My head hurts. It really does.

I'm confused as fuck with Owl House villian the collector. Dana said the character goes by they/them and he/him. That's the problem with SJWs their logic ends up making no since and conductive in nature

Based Chester who I'm certain in his adult life would be telling trannies to 41% themselves in Minecraft.

Sir, this is a western animation topic.

I'm put off by the villains in Owl House to begin with. Much of the time, they act like annoying office workers. That's the vibe I'm getting. Give me a villain like Doflamingo or Kaido from One Piece any day.

I agree. Also the collector is clearly a rip off have Bill Cipher. Alex and Dana are so lazy that their just repeating ideas.

I’m surprised daria didn’t make a cameo

She did, at the trial, along with Principal McVicker and Stewart with his mom.

I’m surprised Daria has never appeared in any capacity past very rare references in other cartoons and the odd robot chicken sketch, considering the new movie’s apparent success would it be enough for Judge to pursue a continuation of the show in the same way the 2011 series did, but worth the characters older? It’s strange that it never continued in any way post 2001. Should it stay dead or is there life in the cynical Teen?

They're apparently doing a new show focusing on Jodie, Daria's classmate... but who knows how that's going.

 

[Oats12345]

Continuing with Owl House villians. I don't mind the Emperor but that may just be because he wants to kill everyone on the show. So he's relatable in a way that the writers didn't intend of course.

Because I totally would do the same.

They gave a nigger a show

Coming up with new ideas for characters would require someone with a good imagination and someone who doesn’t have their head up their ass.

Alex and Dana aren’t those kind of people.

Remember "Q-Force"? Remember Netflix is imploding and nothing is safe? It's officially cancelled after one season.

Happy pride month indeed.

I had actually forgotten it existed until you brought it up. The first trailer really didn't do it any favours.

I felt bad about Lightyear making so little at the box office, so I went and saw it. I saw Toy Story as a kid in theaters, and have continued to be a Pixar fan since. Lightyear is clearly a passion project that was greenlit due to the Toy Story IP being so lucrative. Since this isn't a Toy Story movie a lot of people were confused, and the acknowledgment of gay people existing and raising kids became some kind of right wing boycott that stole some focus away from the movie. It's supposed to be a 90's blockbuster sci fi movie that the toy was a derivative of. So basically the Pixar crew was able to make a semi-throwback space adventure story. There's a subtle filter on the whole movie to look like it's on film. It's a cool little touch. There are a LOT of retro technology jokes in the movie that no kid will ever understand but a lot of adults will get. It's sort of a retro-futurist style that imagines future tech from the lens of the mid nineties. Buzz blows on some pin connectors similar to an NES cartridge, there's an R2-D2 style hologram message that Buzz's robo cat plays, and a reference to classic Macintosh OS graphics. Stuff like this kind of shows there was a lot of confidence in Lightyear being able to get some older Pixar fans to drag the kids out to see an animated film that Dad or Mom might like more than the kids. The last few Pixar flicks have gone straight to Disney Plus so I bet a lot of people are just going to wait to watch it on their living room screen. I think it's worth seeing in a theater. The movies previewed before Lightyear were other western CG kid flicks, that might entertain little ones but made me roll my eyes. Lightyear is thankfully one of those kids movies that might bore the really little ones but had a lot to enjoy for older fans. I hope they get to do more passion projects at Pixar that don't make as much money but allow the animators to make the kind of movie they'd like to.

That’s dumb.

Animators who work for companies like Disney should not do passion projects because most animators are shitty writers who use cartoons as outlet for their personal baggage that nobody cares about. Also, Disney is a company for a profit, and whatever doesn’t make a profit gets the axe.
