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

A problem with a lot of hacks working in western animation really. I know it's poor form to quote/agree with a lolcow but mr enter was right in saying "no one wants to remember their hs years, even if they look back on them fondly." And yet here we are year after year of hacks turning their old composition notebooks and journals into cartoons all because they can't move on from what should be one of the most insignificant times in someone's life.

Unless you were a massive Teacher's Pet/Sports Star, High School is pretty much a universally horrible experience.
It's like a weird fake boring job where everyone acts like a dick and you have little in the way of agency. I know that the comparison to prison is well worn and mostly hyperbole but after reading lots of ex-con testimonies I can't help but agree.

I pity the Japanese; who have assigned it as the unfortunate mechanism that determines the rest of your life.

And if you thought the Japanese had it bad, then you should also see the Chinese and Koreans.

China has things such as kids being pressured into crunch time levels of studying, to pass the competitive college entrance exams, which is seen as the way to get out of poverty, by getting a good education and a well-paying job. The fact that the government is also cracking down on entertainment (i.e. the 1 hour weekly limits on online gaming) doesn't help either.

And Worst Korea has all of the negative aspects of China and Japan, (i.e. long working hours, lower birth rates, higher suicide rates) but multiplied exponentially. It's to the point that some Koreans even mock Japanese for having a lazy worth ethic. And while Worst Korea bans pornography outright, that resulted in those men putting video cameras in restrooms and other private places, to get material to wank to, which is even worse.

use someone less edgy than the ledger joker and rewrite the text to be more close to reality and less alex jone's version of diary of a wimpy kid, and then it'll be more accurate. ex: No I wont miss being treated like a child while also being expected to act like an adult. I wont miss being made to follow college and even office level rules while still taking basic juvenile courses that wont mean jack all in real life, and most of all i wont miss being mocked and heckered by a bunch of people who will peak a year at best after i graduate and leave this dump for good.

also funny how you and @Thiletonomics bring up the pressure asians go thru to be better than us cause on a slightly unrelated note and my apologies for bringing up big mouth again but they did something that legit shocked me...and not in the way they usualy do.

It's amazing they flat out say to their audience of unwashed, smelly, fat, unshaved discord mods. "Hey losers stop jerking off all day and actually put some effort into your lives and you wont be unhappy, fat, unhealthy, gross pervs"....So of course this was undone by the end of the episode and the little turd went right back to being a skeevy little coomer. You know if it was any other show I'd write it off as "status quo is god" but like a lot of Netflix adult animation Big is trying to at least break out of that cliché. No no they embraced it this time because why would we want a show where the gross, unsightly little bastard actually gets a good dose of reality in his life and puts effort into turning it around for the better? No no eat the bugs, drink the soy, live in the pod, and whack off to cartoons all day got to support "the message." ™️
 
on a lighter note Happy bithday to mr ralph bakshi 85 years young.

What do you get a man who's given so much? saw the deaths of the old kings (Walt Disney, Tex avery, friz freeling, ect) lead the rise of the new gaurd (him, bluth,) and the young bloods (bruce timm, tom rueger, danny antonucci, Gennady Tartakovsky,) and is now living to see it all be desecrated by the last generation? (terrance, hirsch, crowley and amer) old man bakshi's seen plenty of sunrises and sunsets..the biggest sunset of them all can't be too far away. You give him best wishes and condolences given how shit this industry has become.

We need to make a Fido Dido Appreciation Thread.



One half of the creator duo behind Fido Dido, Sue Rose, was responsible for creating Pepper Ann, Angela Anaconda and Unfabulous.
Those of my generation will remember these.

You can see how Hikikomoris happen...

Could absolutely be a baitpost, but we'll see as the years goes on when more info on TS5 is dropped.
Tom Hanks is 67. God willing, he gets a stroke to put this film on ice until it's quietly canceled and shuffled off to become Newt's newest companion.
 
Victorious had some surprisingly good moments
Andre's story about meeting Bruno Mars in the toilet always killed me. I think it was in the "Tori Goes Platinum" special.

The talent they got for this show was stellar.
Victoria Justice was the hottest fucking girl they ever put on Nickelodeon and I will not hear otherwise.

Which is also why SpongeBob has taken the majority of the network. It's not just Nick's popular show, but it's literally Paramount's own version of either Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny, Scooby-Doo, Spiderman, Mario or Simpsons. The company wants to milk it for years on end. During this era, a lot Nicktoons such as Barnyard, Kappa Mikey, FB&CC, Catscratch, Mighty B, etc. were fucked over by the yellow sponge.
The irony of it all being that SpongeBob is absolute trash now. The main show is unwatchable ADHD trash, the Patrick Star Show is that plus grotesque gross-out humor, and Kamp Koral has terrible CGI and is an insult to SpongeBob's creator, who never wanted the characters de-aged. RIP Steven Hillenburg.

God, it's funny though that you bring up Catscratch and Mighty B. I remember Catscratch having a few good moments, like Waffle's whole "Waffle World" speech, and while Mighty B I didn't think was all that good, there's a bit where they go to some museum and one of those "in the future, doctors will be able to do this or that" videos plays, ending with "and just imagine what the year 1995 will bring!" that just cracked me up for some reason.

Do physical toys go as strong today as they did 30 years ago? Most parents put their children with an iPad to scramble their minds rather than a physical toy they interact with and use their imagination on.

So? If ai doesn't end up being the automation those Hollywood tards thought it would be and end up replacing them, there's always recasting. They had no qualms replacing Tim Allen and that was because he was unpersoned for going against "the current thing"™️

It's sad that Paramount is treating SpongeBob as the number one brand for marketing purposes, as with other big name companies. A classical tale of Faust has been read by everyone, but that tale slips the minds of said everyone. When an original creator created something good and original, said creator to sell its soul to a big conglomerate and ruin it by being a marketing machine.

These shows are return to form with 90s-era shows. The Mighty B, especially, given the whole Ren & Stimpy art aesthetic.
His brother would just take over.
Or have AI take over.

>John Lasseter secretly contributing
LMAO, never gonna happen. Highly highly doubt anybody still at Pixar would even give him a chance.

The industry is full of trannies, niggers, asians, jews, groomers, etc. who will rather believe their own stories they made up rather than being honest about themselves. They will still bring up Lasseter's questionable past when they themselves have done questionable shit
