I'm going to (try to) post a classic theatrical cartoon each day. Feel free to watch along, or just check in from time to time to catch up on several at once.
In honor of January 1st, I'll first focus on newcomers to the Public Domain.
Today's picture is the first cartoon to come out of the Terrytoons studio, Caviar (1930). If you enjoy rats acting Russian and getting into various winter hi-jinks, this might be the cartoon for you.

This has been a slow year for us furries, didn't have to start a topic all year. But then again, much of the new reveals happen at the obscure anthro character discord nowadays.
Just posting her about a godsend I received recently - I have been trying literally for years to get Mutant Rampage: Bodyslam to work on a Philips CDI emulator (yes, that infamous system - and yes, that same company who made the creepy Zelda animations made this game). Well, that still didn't succeed, but the next best thing did, a guy I found on spriterresources managed to extract the sprites from the game! So now I can finally check out the naked Centaur and Cheetah ladies, topless Rakshasi, and sexy swimsuit Gazelles and karate-robed Lionesses up close, not to mention the boss of Animorpha Roma, Tina Felina!
>>486576 >>486575 Its basically an anime series movie with an older Gaang going on a filler adventure (an evil airbender is defrosted and he's looking for an artifact staff that has the spirit of an Avatar contained within it). The animation is fancy but the writing is stupid, the fights are alot more animu rather than avatar and they changed various voice actors of the original cast.
>>486573 Monster Under The Bed has to be up there, it used to be updated every week, then every two weeks, then every two weeks except when the author is busy so 2-3 weeks at random, sometimes even a month.
>>486564 This feels like it's in the same notional ballpark as "fictional people must be made to atone for their fictional actions", whch simply isn't an interesting approach to storytelling (though Annie Wilkes would certainly disagree).
>>486033 Presumably his superpowered body would be so 'strong' he just is, doesn't put on weight from inactivity or need to work to build muscle. Is just invincible and physically unchanging.
>>486534 The problem isn't laziness, no. The problem is something that's been prevalent across industries ever since the last big economic downturn and the start of austerity measures. That something is stinginess. The people at the top want to make as much money from these shows as they can while also spending as little money on them on they can possibly get away with, and animators have to work within those assigned budgets (and, often as not, take the fall when a show only looks as good as the amount of cash that went into it).
>>486534 >>486537 Like the other anon said, the problem is the lack of money. It's why Hanna-Barbera pioneered their "limited animation" techniques as well (the one where every character has a collar so they can animate only the head and keep the rest of the body the same): they had fuck all budget.
As for Invincible, they actually do have the budget, but they blew like 90% of it in celebrity voice actors and licensed music.
