More I watch Inside Out the more I think it could have benefited from a Bluth styled Villain type embodiment of depression. Oily seductive thing that just creeps in as things fall apart.

>>241078
I love Bluth as an artist, but heavily disagree with him on the whole villain part. Someone told him "your movie is only as good as your villain", and he decided to run with it. Run far away with it.

That is missing an entire half of the picture. For there to be conflict, you do not need a villainous figure at all. Conflict is found in daily life, in interactions.

>>241079
This. Sometimes it's just our flaws as mostly well-intentioned people, and not some nefarious evildoer, which cause the most strife in our lives.

>>241078
I think Inside Out handled depression perfectly. Giving it a personification would have ruined the message--depression isn't an evil force that you can defeat and be happy forever, and a cartoonish anthropomorphism of it would take out the nuance. It's something you learn to live with and to manage and better understanding of and acceptance of your own emotions is the key to that. It's not an epic fight against a mind-dragon.

>>241082
Not until it starts poking making you feel like the only way out is a damned permanent one. Then it kinda does. Guess that is part of my bias. Having that damn thing toss me in a pit and try to drag me back into it if I don't remain focused on my writing aspirations.

Works either way that's just how I feel with mine.

>>241083
Sounds like you wanted the Babadook.

>>241093
Maybe, a culmination of the negative feelings she has in a new place that cannot be effectively dealt with without the balance of all her emotions.

Guess something more than "we've never figured out what Sadness is for and figuring that out fixes it" As old as Riley was that seems a bit off.

>>241096
>Guess something more than "we've never figured out what Sadness is for and figuring that out fixes it" As old as Riley was that seems a bit off.

Not really? Emotions become more complicated around the onset of puberty, and a real understanding of the need to let yourself be sad or angry or scared or disgusted from time to time is a mark of emotional maturity that even a lot of adults haven't come to terms with.

>>241101
I know a lot of adults who think that, just because they learned how to make money and be independent, they don't need to learn anything ever again. All of them are emotionally immature or completely emotionless.

>>241166
I've got a couple of questions being someone who wants to get their foot in the door. This going to be through their Twitter or will they link to a subreddit the day it happens?

>>241169
They always do it just through their twitter.

Well Shit

>>241174

they are doing some of the Croods episodes around half or so per I think. Voltron would be in their wheelhouse if they get it.

>>241182
I decided to read KC's "HE IS A GOOD BOY." comic, and I'm really liking his. I like the way he does comics (The Anime Club is a good read too)

>>241191
The thing about KC Green is that every time I read one of his comics, I have to say a silent prayer to Zeus or whoever is in charge of these things that someone is with him at all times to keep him from killing himself. Something about his comics just screams "The person who wrote this is going to kill himself" and it makes me very scared for him.

>>241196
Similar feeling - he did a lot of really stark comics on unmedicated depression in Bee Power and Horribleville, years ago. It's the same vibe I got from Ricky Garduno and look what the fuck happened to him.

(if you couldn't guess / never heard of him, he committed suicide.)

//youtube.com/watch?v=kZu5iDTtNg0

I'd watch a series of this. Shame it wouldn't work since to do it the VA cost would be massive.

That's essentially just Moonbeam City though...

>>241308
Well Moonbeam City worked with the style but it stumbled on the execution. This seems get more of the joke.

Alan Young is still voicing Scrooge McDuck, holy shit. 96 and still going strong.

>>241324
Its great to hear. As many people complained about how he sounded I like it as he actually sounds about the same age as Scrooge, because he's about the same age now.

>>241324
Voicing in what?

>>241325
There's nothing exactly wrong with the way he sounded given the context, but he did sound...tired. I don't blame him of course, but still.

>>241327
Yeah, it was pretty noticeable in the Ducktales Remaster.

>>241333
This is just an opinion, but both look equally good.

>>241333
Storyboards will usually look more expressive by the simple fact that when you subtract and simplify, you can put more emphasis on what little is on the page.

>>241333
As always, the storyboard looks better than the fugly 3D result.

I got back to watching videos on this channel just today and figured I'd actually post my thoughts about it here since I don't comment on Youtube.

In particular I think their dissection of Shadow brings up some interesting points that actually make him a better fit for Sonic Boom than they or I expected. To me, the idea of Shadow as being very much a team player, and a polite one at that, opens up a large space of possibility, given that it contrasts with the general irresposible goofiness of the series.

First thing it brought to mind is that he could actually be looking to spend more time with the group but held back by his reputation and lack of humor. But it could also make sense for him to simply gove a bit of support every now and then. Maybe living out with Metal Sonic since they're both super serious Evil Sonics and the latter, I'm presuming, out of work?

Or he could show some respect for Orbot as someone who puts up with terrible a boss and isn't even trying to goof off as often as th others. That'd also give Orbot and Cuebot someone to ask for help without turning to Sonic Team, and help break up the new routine of fighting Eggman as just a routine without utterly derailing it.

And the factions from Shadow's own game could actually be kind of fun as one-off gags. GUN plays right into the sort of conspiracy theory vision of government Sticks is known for, and I could see the Lighting Bolt Society begging shadow to help them summon that alien starfish guy because they figure summoning ancient evil is just what cults do. Though alone I can see that failing to justify making and rigging new models, I don't think it'd be doomed to fall flat.

>>241346

I really hope he makes it to Infinity War.

Watching the Race of the Edge. Hope we find more about the hunters that made the Dragons Eye.

NEW VENTURE BROS. IN ONE WEEK

>>241460
Need to figure out if CN Canada is showing them at the same time or if I need to find a stream/download on that.

I'm looking forward to this so fucking much.

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/there-she-is-6th-episode-another-step#/

SamBakZa, the Korean group behind the There She Is!! series of Flash animations, have a crowdfunding campaign going to fund a DVD release of the series and a new episode focusing on a trio of side characters. They remastered the whole series—even posted it to YouTube!—and appear to have a solid plan in place for rewards and production.

Meanwhile, europeans are saving animation:

Venture Bros. return was great.

I'm surprised that Dreamworks' commitment to making their movies seem sillier than they actually are is so strong that they create silly scenes specifically for the trailers that don't show up in the movie at all.

>>241579
You talking about Karate Bear?

>>241584
Yeah, it was quite good.
Although if the plan really is to make 6 movies, with Po mastering Chi and teaching everyone it by the end of 3, 1-3 is probably going to be the Dragon Ball to 4-6's DBZ. There's already very little actual kung fu in 3.

>>241586
It all depends on just how much power do the director and writers hold. If they retain a final say on where the story goes and what the tone will be, everything will be fine.

It also needs to be remembered that the chinese have a say in all this. Kung Fu movies always were a big thing there, and Wuxia (stories of war and epic kung fu battles) have been a tradition for thousands of years before cinema. The chinese want their kung fu movies to have kung fu in them. I don't think Dreamworks USA have the balls to insult the entire republic of China.

From Paul Dini Twitter

>Heartbroken tonight at the passing of Joe Alaskey, a great talent and a great guy.

Fucking hell death. Slow down a bit.

>>241591
Also, one thing I noticed in all 3 movies. A story would be mentioned about "a super amazing kung fu master who meditated for many years in a cave feeding only on drops of water from the ceiling and the energy of the universe"

Chinese Kung Fu legends have a tradition of describing super human feats (that nobody listening to the legend would be old enough to see for themselves of course). Basically, exaggerating to high heavens what a kung fu master can accomplish is a tradition in chinese war legends.

AND THAT PART MADE IT INTO KFP

Reading up on stuff for spec script. I've written about Five Outlines (Overall Plot Directions and Dialog Beats) for Rick and Morty scripts Trying to think of a good one that hooks and one that hasn't been used before.

Developed a Bit I really went into depth on just as a cap for the beginning and the end. Found out it was a bit more interesting than the rest of the story since it put Rick in the center and expanded more on what he does while in space. And Morty gets tossed about and maimed a bit. Everyone Wins!

I think I've figured it out. Nobody ever, and I mean ever discusses universally good comics like Invincible or Usagi Yojimbo on Chan boards. There's just not much to say about consistently well-written stories. But everybody discusses mediocre shit like what Marvel/DC puts out, because it's just decent enough to be acceptable, but just shitty enough to raise a riot about it.

I don't think it's a popularity issue, I think it's just a carefully constructed marketing scheme. Mediocre things generate more exposure. These things are bad on purpose.

>>241607

I wouldn't call Invincible universally good. It's more up than down, but it definitely has its downs.

>>241607

>There's just not much to say about consistently well-written stories.

Eh, I wouldn’t go that far. But I’d say it’s more that people love to disagree and start conversations based on said disagreements; when something is consistently well-written, it’s hard to disagree about said writing.

>>241612
It is always interesting to see other people's perspective on things you like.

That is half the reason I watch/read reviews online; not to validate myself, but to look at something I like through the eyes of someone else.

The Watchmen is a movie one should see at least once. It is so good, even if you don't like how it ends.

Shame I won't rewatch it.

https://youtu.be/52fx2ZgmqJA

Lizzie is pretty consistent good shorts.

Wow what a Smurf rip off.(of that the trailer shows.)

>>241643
They've also put out a few Anime and have plans for big budget animation series. Big a good time to buy some series off Nick. Avatar has always been a good pull for them.

>>241646

Mega link now that it was taken down.

>>241701
Manboy looks like a man and sounds like a man. If he's not outed as wearing a fake beard or his voice breaks then that is an odd design choice. I mean one of those traits should he either looks like a boy or sounds like one.

>>241702
Yea. Looks like 90s GRRL POWER except it's not the 90s anymore.

We've gotten to the point where we've exploited nearly every popular 80s franchise for nostalgia so they've moved on to the 90s. Here's to hoping for a SWAT Kats reboot.

>>241709
>>241710
Looks cute to me. Maybe you're just easily triggered by girls who are confident in their own power.

>>241711
Cutting into this small argument, reminding that the girls have SUPERpowers.

Of course they are confident in theirs: they are superheroes!

>>241710
>Yea. Looks like 90s GRRL POWER except it's not the 90s anymore.
That's exactly the point? The whole print/coloured paper cut out style is reminiscent of the early indie print press thats prominent in what the song is a pastiche of - 90's Girl Punk in the vein of Bikini Kill or such.

Its literally a love letter to the heavily female dominated punk scene of the late 90's early 00's just as much as say, Cults is a love letter to 50's Girl Pop.
Like, as far as pastiche of headnods go, it's just about up there with the Scott Pilgrim intro.

>>241711
Did I say it was inherently bad? It's not even out yet to judge. Jesus.

>>241713
So you agree with me that it's fueled by 90s nostalgia, whatever 90s thing it is, what's with the confrontational tone?
>We've gotten to the point where we've exploited nearly every popular 80s franchise for nostalgia so they've moved on to the 90s. Here's to hoping for a SWAT Kats reboot.

>>241713
Yeah you can tell what they were going for.
I really liked it. Kinda makes it feel truer to itself with its whole "The Whopass Girls" roots.

>>241701
That intro looks kickass, but the show itself seems to be playing it safe somewhat. It's an understandable decision given how divisive the 2014 special was with its severe stylistic departures, but I do hope they take some opportunity to try new things rather than carry on as if the last fifteen years hadn't happened.

I'm inclined to give it a chance though, if for no other reason than the chucklefucks coming out the woodwork bleating "teh feminists are ruining my magical girl cartoon" are driving me up the wall.

Let's see how it carries, complaints about stylistic difference comes in part due to nobody from the original teams being around anymore. I think it'll be okay same with the new Ben 10. I understand where their new network head is coming from with the reboots.

Good shows she wants to introduce to a new generation.

>>241701
Man, I get that it's the big new style nowadays, kind of like how Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, and Dexter all had this similar thick line aesthetic with pointy triangle noses going on. But I'm not really crazy about how the designs look to be more of the sake more of the same "everybody is round and made of oblongs and looks like a Steven Universe/Gravity Falls/Clarence character". Was hoping for a bit more of a 90s throwback like the intro, or at least something different.

>>241724
I'm kind of surprized that they didn't go for more of a TTG look, given the thematic similarity of them both being super deformed goofy super heroes with distinctly anime-inspired earlier versions of themselves. On the other hand, we don't exactly need two TTGs, so in a way I'm glad it isn't too similar. A short crossover would still be pretty fun though.

One interesting choice is how much movement and expression they give the Proffessor compared to the old intro, putting more emphasis on the energetic personality he can show when something excites him than the more reserved and stoic scientist that his role of 50's style atomic energy proffessor tends to project.

Also, I look forward to a callback joke in which someone tries to call Princess Morebucks their little buttercup.

>>241701
Those voices are horrible.

>>241727
They are young girls being brought into this so I'll give them time to adjust.

>>241726
>One interesting choice is how much movement and expression they give the Proffessor compared to the old intro, putting more emphasis on the energetic personality he can show when something excites him than the more reserved and stoic scientist that his role of 50's style atomic energy proffessor tends to project.

I don't think that's gonna be a fixture in his character - the intro was 100% commissioned to another studio thats completely uninvolved with the cartoon itself.

>>241701
I'm all for girl power and stuff but when you beat people wayyyy too hard over the head with it like that it's not enjoyable. Even that one Justice League episode was way preachy.

>>241733
*less preachy

>>241729
Oh, well that does explain why it mostly consists of scrapbook-styled collages.

>>241733
The intro doesn't mention girl power explicitly, and Buttercup being irritable is just how she always is.
Man Boy doesn't seem all that versatile as a character, but being in the pilot doesn't mean he'll be one of the more often-recurring villains in the reboot. I'd like to see Townsville caught in the crossfire of a fight between him and Femme Fatale, though. And maybe the Rowdy Rough Boys, who could fight Man Boy for disparaging childishness, or even snowball it from there until every villain gets caught up in the battle.

I just hope Buttercup's more interesting this time around. Always thought she was the one who got shafted the most in terms of characterization. But the voice isn't helping because of how mediocre it is.

If this takes off I hope more series follow suit instead of having to worry about being at the whims of toymaking execs and their bullshit.

>>241742
Hell yeah!

I caught some of the new Bugs Bunny show, "Wabbit". It wasn't very good. Why bother making a pale imitation of the classic shorts when it'd be cheaper (and more entertaining) to keep syndicating the old ones like CN has done for decades?

>>241754
Probably copyright issues.

>>241754
Because the network can't know how good a show will be before they've made any episodes.

>>241756
>>241755
Also, I'm really annoyed how Yosemite Sam no longer uses guns. The episode I saw had him use his fingers instead, and they still shot bullets. Fucking weird.

>>241757
That actually sounds like a pretty clever and funny way of dealing with S&P.

I saw the first season and thought it was shit.

How much better does the show get? May or may not give it another shot.

>>241777
Oh yeah, shit just got ridiculously real, and finally the plot advanced, like, A LOT.
Fuck you, Cinder.

>>241781
You may want to avoid season two, since the plot doesn't advance that much. But it's still a small improvement compared with the first season. Season three is when not only the plot advances, as we learn Cinder & co. real motives, but also things start to slowly falling apart for everyone involved. Also, Unca Qrow is the best.

>>241805
YEAAAAAH!

>>241805

We can hope, anyway. Now, let’s hope they don’t fuck up the Callie redesign…

>>241810
Last sketches shown she looked okay. Some tweaks but nothing outrageous. Nice to see they toned down the Smooth Suit design from the earlier sketches and went with basically their classic suits.

Now we just need to get Adult Swim to pick it up and pair it with Samurai Jack.

>>241813
Wait, for real?

>>241815

Yep. It's real.

>>241837
That's such a cute design!

That is absolutely adorable.
Making it for Vampirella is totally ridiculous.

>>241852
And here I was, thinking it was generic. If I have nothing else to watch, I'll watch it.

Well then. Thought the ending of the movie was a bit of a cockblock.

>>241855
Does she have coloured hair and earrings because that's what kids these days think is cool?

>>241860
I'm pretty sure it's cuz she just likes them, her character is inverse Mandy from the grim adventures of Billy and Mandy.

Where Mandy dressed as if she was very happy and upbeat in contrast to her personality, Mina is very happy and upbeat in contrast to her style of dress.

I make this comparison because Maxwell Atoms is the primary creator of both shows.

Does anybody have the link to the thread for animated shorts and stuff? I just went through all the pages and could not find it.

>>241904
That's a real shame, but at least he was given fair warning over this.

>>241904
I'm disappointed, but not hugely broken up. 43 half hour episodes is a respectable length.

>>241905
It's pretty much the standard for American cartoons to get renewed before the premier of the last season which was greenlit. Adult Swim usually waiting until all the episodes are out to renew is why seasons of The Venture Brothers come years apart and Rick and Morty wasn't expected to be back until 2017.

>>241904
Sad. Isn't it 65 half hour episodes the normal limit for cartoon syndication reruns?

It feels like Wander Over Yonder was finally finding its footing and now it's done.

>>241909
>Isn't it 65 half hour episodes the normal limit for cartoon syndication reruns?
Barring a few on PBS (the rest being original programming) no one syndicates cartoons anymore. It's a practice that's been in decline for the past two decades and official died in 2014 when The CW canceled the Vortexx block--the weekday broadcasts that the 65-episode limit was made for were gone years before that.

Cartoons now are pretty much always made to premier and rerun solely on a specific cable channel (or family of channels). Even international broadcasts are usually done by that country's version of the same network.

Disney Channel stuck with the 65-episode limit far past its obsolescence, but even they abandoned it around ~2010. Phineas and Ferb had over 100 episodes.

The Hub/Discovery Family seems to be the only network that's recently ended shows at 65 (or considered doing it, in the case of Friendship is Magic), and I think that was for its own weekday broadcasts.

>>241909
That's the way it's been with Disney still struggling to get a balance with production and management and keeping communication clear. 9th Grade Ninja Gravity Falls and now Wander had stories that went beyond what management was intrested in doing. Good shows with good ratings but someone is either chasing the next Phineas and Ferb or still looking for their Spongebob so shows get dropped after a while and they start up new ones.

I'm thinking Craig should pitch to Netflix as they are looking for original content and are looking to give their animated productions a quite healthy budget.

I thought it was 52.
Hence the line about there being 104 days of summer vacation in Phineas and Ferb; 52 episodes with two shorts each.

>>241918
Supposedly, that's the usual limit at Nickelodeon, where the creators had previously worked.

>>241919
Yea and where it was first pitches back in '92 when they were working on Rocko.

>>241935
Yea no money but it would have been damned insightful

>>241939
I'll share when the trailer is complete and released.

>>241942
Cool would be nice to know the head one should have going into the industry I'm working to enter.

>>241943
If you want to get into animation, the "draw every day" rule should be even more important than usual. Many comic artists can afford to sometimes not do that, but not animators.

>>241956
Mite b kool.

As long as they remember what made DT good in the first place: honest-to-deity sincere adventure that plays it straight, with no irony whatsoever.

>>241957
And loose adaptations of Carl Barks stories.

>>241959
While the current image which is done in contemporary "Tumblr" style or whatever you call the kind of style people like Babs Tarr use looks OK, the art was always a big charming point of Barks's comics and I hope the final show ends up looking closer to his style.

one fellows answer to the new Powerpuff Girls show looking a bit iffy.

I love Venture Bros. but it can be such a cocktease.

>>242031
Molotov?

>>242035
Well, yes, but I was talking about the fake-out they recently had with Doc being shot.

Upon rewatching the episode I realized there were enough hints that if I'd been paying closer attention, I might not have fallen for it in the first place. But they still set it up to be a death REALLY fucking hard. I mean the character narrating straight up says "That's how Rusty Venture died." And then follows it up with "I'm kidding!" which comes pretty close to lying to the audience, even with the hints from earlier.

I'm okay with it being a fake out now but right after I was pretty annoyed by it. Partially because it would have been an amazing death scene, even if I don't actually want Rusty dead.

This complaint aside I've been loving the new season. Shame there's only one episode left.

Well atlest the animators are having fun...

>>242064
I think the humor quickly became a nightmare for them judging by the script.

"oh so this is the reason we don't do a lot of adult animation."

>After having to animate a food orgy and a mentos fat man head explosion.

"wonder if DreamWorks has any openings on their kid shows. "

>>242065
'tis the unfortunate flipside of the desire in the animation community to make "cartoons for adults". Turns out when you give these people the keys, their conception of what constitutes "adult" turns out to be incredibly fucking childish. Otherwise known as the John K Problem.

Just to wash our brains out with bleach, has anyone seen Charlie Kaufman's Anomalisa?

//youtube.com/watch?v=DT6QJaS2a-U

I bring it up because it's probably the closest thing to an "adult cartoon" in theatres today, but near as I can tell all of seven people and a cat have actually watched the thing.

>>242074

>'tis the unfortunate flipside of the desire in the animation community to make "cartoons for adults". Turns out when you give these people the keys, their conception of what constitutes "adult" turns out to be incredibly fucking childish.

One could argue that the only reason for this involves the major motion picture studios/distributors believing that “mature” animation doesn’t sell tickets. (How much money has Anomalisa made in the US?) Adult animation, to the studios, means raunchy gross-out humor with lots of F-bombs (and maybe a tit or two tossed in if they’re feeling generous) because that’s the prevailing notion of what might put butts in seats. I’d love for the situation to be different—something from an American studio on the level of the Cowboy Bebop movie would be a hell of a start—but shit ain’t gonna change any time soon because adult animation doesn’t sell tickets. Sausage Party will bomb (hard) and the studios will go back to thinking the “adult animation experiment” should be considered a failure.

>>242065
You do know that sounds why more fun to make then another scene of Puss in Boots stading around talking.
Just saying.
>>242077
>Sausage Party will bomb (hard)
I dont know...
Given how shit peoples taste can be I dont think we can count it of yet.
The only real problem(other then the racism but L-A movies has that too so whatever) I can see with it is that its an Robot Chicken(Toy story but with food) skit dragged out to a full movie.

Still I think it has a better chance of being a hit then all of the pretentious looking art cartoons.
Because as I said, shit tastes.

Sausage Party is a Robot Chicken skit/Family Guy cutaway gag extended to feature-length and filled with “humor” worse than you’d find on either of those shows. Between that, the R rating, and the savaging I’ve seen it getting across the Internets, this movie has one weekend—maybe two—to make back its budget before it drops out of theaters due to people not giving a damn about it.

Where did you find that, when I try googleing it all I can find is "mostly" gay porn and the script.

And reading I do find myself laugthing at it and I refuse to belive that I'm the only one who finds cute things saying FUCK, having sex and getting killed funny.

But honestly the "I" was playing devil's advocate because I did like what I SAW but then I turned the sound on AND OFCOURE THEY HAVE SCREEN ACTORS INSTEAD OF VOCIE ACTORS!
Thats always so bullshit and they are even that funny sounding...

I dont care about the movie itself but the recations, funny reviews and gifs/webm it will spawn.
And too drink the salty tears of animation fans when it wins an Oskar because it was the only movie the voters saw/rememmbered.

Plus I down for any movie that kills the human race at the end. Take that you fucking mary sues!

AND YOU KNOW WHAT!
I'm glad someone is atlest TRYING to make an R rated cartoon comedy again.

There.
Now I'm fucking done with this shit.

>>242064
I'd rather have nothing.

You’re not. But it takes more than just that to entertain me for longer than a minute. And besides that, I can’t imagine anyone in their right mind who is unironically looking forward to Sausage Fest for any reason other than “at least it’s not something for kids”. I feel so goddamned disgusted with people thinking the only “adult animation” we can ever have is shit like Sausage Fest and Family Guy. Where the fuck is the American animation equivalent of Ghost in the Shell?

>>242098
Yeah, I'm sad that doesn't happen either. I heard they're working on a new Heavy Metal movie, though. Maybe that can be good.

>Just to wash our brains out with bleach, has anyone seen Charlie Kaufman's Anomalisa?

Nope, still waiting on my Kickstarter digital download.

The Deus Ex Machina that is the amulet—something that isn’t really connected to the story and does something that goes unexplained by anything else that happens in the story—hardly counts as a “superficial” flaw. I understand that they had to change the ending a little for the movie to work, and I still think the sequence with the amulet at the end of the film is beautiful, but let’s not pretend as if it isn’t a DEM.

Just go back from Kung Fuu Panda 3, its okay, good time but not as great as 2.
But they had it in english so thats something!

>>242116
Yeah, they upped the scale of the villain but not the threat.
There's no huge setting like the city in 2, and you don't actually see all of China being in peril, you just hear about it.
Also I guess people complained 2 was too dark, what with the genocide, and that's why 3 is significantly sillier.

So its like how Empire strikes back leads into Return of the Jedi.
Okay.
