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

The first eight episodes are fairly decent, definitely a sight better than both Boom and Underground (though what cartoon isn't).

Boom is a masterpiece, what in the fuck are you talking about?!

I preferred the short-lived comic series written by Ian Flynn in all honesty.

EDIT:
How about that, Ian Flynn just now confirmed he was a story consultant for Prime.

why are these people so insistent to having children exposed to faggotry

Pedophilia has always been the LGBT's silver bullet. The unifying fetish amongst 85 percent of homosexuals, turning someone 'gay' like them. Easiest way to do that? Prey on the kids.

It was too based so it had to be shut down.

Threads are lacking news on this masterpiece, so here:

Sonic Prime's out on Netflix. The first eight episodes are fairly decent, definitely a sight better than both Boom and Underground (though what cartoon isn't). Can't really give a full opinion until the whole thing's out, but apart from some "heh, chilli dogs am I right?" moments (and the fact it's geared more towards kids) it's doing its job just fine so far.

I still have to watch it, but for the few clips I've seen the animation looks really fluid...too fluid in fact. Maybe it's just those clips or I'm so used to 3D cartoon shows being much stiffer, but it's a bit distracting, especially when the characters are talking. Like there's unnecessary movement...

I don't know. I'll probably study it more and figure out why I find it so off.

Maybe just me, but part of it might be the design for Sonic’s eyes. They seem off. I think park of it is that is his eyes not having lids but rather moving the uni-eye. It looks really off in promo pics and scenes as his eyes just look strange, even during a normal pose, like they are too big.

That's what happens when you try to adapt that "double-yoke" look for eyes for a 3D character.

The thing is, only this series seems off to me. Boom and the games look fine. I cannot pin what it is, but the eyes look too big and the middle part doesn’t divide them enough.

Here is what I mean. I took screenshots of it and Boom’s video thumbnails.


Now look at Boom

Sonic’s eyes seem wider, yet shorter in Prime and the top eyebrow(?) comes down less in the middle creating less distinction between the two eyes. Prime creates a more prominent uni-eye which makes for a more unsettling design.

The trade off is that Boom's way less colourful and the character models have that creepy "muppet mouth" design. Look at Amy in the second image for an example of that.

Back on my yearly Ralph Bakshi binge. Fritz the Cat is still prophetic but Fritz is still a piece of shit as a character. Heavy Traffic is still damn near unwatchable. Wizards is still goofy but fun. Fire and Ice is Wizards but less fun, though just as goofy. Lord of The Rings has a lot of problems, but actually gets a bit better with age. Hey Good Lookin is still a mess. American Pop is still great (the scene where the German soldier is listening to him play the piano still hits hard), but I agree with Ralph that it should have ended with Freebird instead of Night Moves. Coonskin is still by far his best work and has only gotten better with age.

All this talk og sonic boom....somewhere in the dark halls and cells of Central Virginia regional jail. Chris Chan wakes up screaming and he doesn't know why...






But anyways I've got a random thought. If owl house was made not 20 or 30 years ago but just over 10 years ago say around 2010 2012. Do you think it would have been/done better? Given how different the industry was at the time? Not yet off the deep end it is now, but standing over the edge of the pool on your toes.

I'd say it'd be an Adventure Time situation: it'd start out OK, but then devolve into the same LGBBQ+ shit it already became in the first place.

Pretty much this, and I doubt the fandom would be any less retarded since Tumblr was still in it's cancerous state ten years ago.

Really a lot of shows and reboots could have worked if the had been made in the early 2010s as opposed to the post Trump later half into the current year. Take He man. A reboot of that franchise made in 2012 while the awesome Thundercats reboot was still fresh in everyone's mind? (Not roar fuck no) that could have worked,

Really the whole decade is a two face coin. The good side being the first half which gave the world modern masterpieces then the cracks started to show in 2015 and then along came the bad side of 2016.

It's funny to think how well Regular Show has aged with its teen-like humor compared to the pretentiousness that was Adventure Time as the series went on.

 

[starborn427614]

Sonic Prime's doing really well in terms of viewership.

I have to be honest, other than seasons 5-6, AT never got that bad. It really cleaned itself up in the last seasons. While the final wasn't good (it was rushed due to CN's episode limit), Distant lands more than made up for it.
