one of these big new indie cartoons should release with an exclusive adopt of like the main character. pay up 10000 dollars to be the only one whos legally allowed to draw pomni. i feel like the resulting fandom drama would change the face of the internet it would be so cool

Twitter indie animation discourse has just sounded like this lately

[snout]

people on this site will make the biggest scene whenever any of the crystal gems has the tiniest flaw but i don’t see ANYBODY talking about all of the innocent people steven callously stabs per episode ..? :/

[snout]

it seems like almost every time i watch the show i’m like, great, another steven’s knife episode. it’s like, enough? we get it??

[boxghost]

is this what steven universe fans concern themselves with

[snout]

its important, what kind of message is this to send to children? kids are gonna watch this and think that stabbing people is okay just because steven brutally, mercilessly slaughters his fellow Beach City residents by the dozen every single episode and nobody is there to tell him no. There too afraid of the knife

[boxghost]

yall ever watch like. grim adventures. or. anything like that lmfaooo

[snout]

the only “grim adventures” ive ever seen are steven universe’s bloodthirsty massacres, when he stamps out entire villages using his famous trusty knife, in every episode of the show steven universe. men, women, children, steven doesn’t care . It Just How He Gets his Jollies

Chuck Jones is the best counterexample to “the curtains are just blue” because you would not believe the amount of thought and art theory he put into his silly little cartoons

[memecucker]

I need to dig out my Chuck Jones books but one time he was talking about the Wile E Coyote gag where he runs off a cliff and continues running for a little bit before noticing there’s no ground underneath him and then turns to the camera and holds up a sign saying “Help!” before plummeting and Jones said the reason Coyote does that instead of immediately trying to get back to the cliff edge is bc Coyote embodies anxiety and in that particular moment represents the fear and worry about the judgement of others over and above the desire for self-preservation.

Like, if someone was told that interpretation without knowing any better they’d think it came from some pretentious academic or whatever but nope! It’s literally the creator like those are the thoughts he had in his head when he was creating the cartoons

trying to sleep but i just remembered those tweets by lauren faust when she discovered what the equestria girls toys looked like and it upset her so much that she drew herself as the hulk. obsessed

most deserved hater moment of all time

[mousegirlheart]

steven universe discourse was so funny.

yes, this 14 year old child should execute these three dictators. even though with them kept alive, they literally have the power to resurrect everyone they've killed. ignore that. make the traumatized little boy kill them in cold blood. fuck im good at watching childrens cartoons.

[super-metroid]

whenever i see people online go "this piece of media would be so much better if the creators just did xyz!!" i just think of that one message from Hakita

[tastylemonbread]

i think fiction should be abolished. if yo uwrite about a character dying you should be put on trial in real life for murder

[tastylemonbread]

all fiction is unethical. why are you lying for fun
