The quote would be more accurate if it said “Cartoons were never as easy, fast and (potentially) cheap to make as they are today”.

Just because the tech improved considerably since the 80s, writing has not. The only difference is that it’s laden with political nonsense, dumb memes and ‘lolsorandom’ humor that makes the occasional anime bugeye-surprise and faceplant scenes feel innocent.

And it’s not that nostalgic people hate new things. They love new things. IF the new things are actually good. Which sadly isn’t true 75% of the time. 

There are some 80s-90s classics that are drawn and written better than things you can find nowadays, because back then quality was important and people still cared about it back then. There’s an occasional error or outdated bit, but it doesn’t define the entire show as a whole. Cartoons such as Rescue Rangers come to mind. Gargoyles, etc.

Now you look at all those countless reboots of cartoons that back then used to be popular, piggybacking on said popularity but completely wrecking everything the original had to offer. Character designs, personalities, backstories and whatnot are all just…thrown out the window and replaced with something the design artist and writer(s) felt “more appropriate”. Deviating so hard from the original, you can’t help but ask yourself one question.

“Why didn’t you make something ORIGINAL, then?”

(Sidenote: everything I just said could also be applied to live-action adaptations, such as the Transformers movies, Resident Evil, Teen Titans, etc)

That said, I don’t particularly care for She-Ra on its own. I have maybe seen 6-8 episodes at best, so it doesn’t define my childhood. Anyway, most of the fanart I’ve seen so far fixed the main gripe I’ve had with her design (having a boy-head with the hair so firmly and flatly pressed onto the top of her skull that there’s zero volume and looks more like some kind of mullet), …though apparently 70% of those images are actually fembois XD

[the-thrashy-one]

The nicest thing I can say about the new She-Ra design is that at least it’s not bottom-of-the-barrel CalArts vomit like Thundercats Roar. I have no personal attachment to She-Ra whatsoever and yet I still find her new design to be rather unimaginative, which pretty soundly renders OP’s comically haughty presumption that “Y’all just nostalgic JERKS!” null and void right out of the gate. Can’t be blindly nostalgic for something you never cared about!

OP also blithely ignores the fact that many of the same people who are giving the new She-Ra and Thundercats the thumbs down are the same people who embraced the 2011 Thundercats reboot, the same people who embraced the 2003 TMNT reboot, the same people who embraced the 2010 My Little Pony reboot, the same people who embraced The Looney Tunes Show, and the list goes on. 

People’s disdain for stuff like the new She-Ra, Thundercats Roar, Teen Titans Go, the new PPG etc. has nothing to do with nostalgia goggles, nor does it have anything to do with blind/indiscriminate hatred of reboots in general. It has EVERYTHING to do with hackneyed writing which panders to modern sensibilities and EVERYTHING to do with lazy and oversimplified art styles like the eyerollingly ubiquitous CalArts style. 

Will She-Ra be different? Who knows. OP doesn’t know, I can tell you that for free. That’s why I find it rather bemusing that he/she (xe? Xena?) would be so inordinately defensive over something that hasn’t even hit Netflix yet. Maybe we should save the condescension until AFTER we’ve had a proper chance to judge what this show actually is, eh? Wouldn’t that be cool?

[foxyfandoms]

Never forget to bring this up when someone tries to defend IGNs credibility.

They scored a literal dumpster fire higher then the MLP movie.

[peridotsstuff]

The mlp movie isn’t some brilliant work of art, but it’s a fundamentally competent production. The emoji movie is nothing. This is outrageous.

[foxyfandoms]

MLP is a feel-good movie.

It’s the sort of thing you watch and get a warm and fuzzy nostalgic high off how much it pays tribute 80s and 90s animation where the roots of MLP are.

Not ground breaking but a solid 8/10 at the least and a blast to sit down and enjoy, especially with the high-quality animation and music.

[scrimblobimblobadimbo-deactivat]

It was also one of our last bastions of hope regarding 2D animated mainstream movies. It was fucking *gorgeous* with that animation and movement.

What did The Emoji Movie offer us? Nothing. Nothing original, insightful, or even visually interesting.

[foxyfandoms]

THIS

The movie was gorgeous and will forever respect it had the balls to use more traditional style 2D animation at a time when full CGI still rules big-budget animation.

[thevictoryfire88]

Pinkie’s cuteness alone makes me want to finally see it.

[foxyfandoms]

They did a beautiful bringing out her character with expressions that are somehow both over-the-top and cute at the same time

[raygirlramblings]

Personally Tempest Shadow’s performance/animation just sold this movie for me.

I was told that the models for this movies had a RIDICULOUS amount of frames for each turn around.  Rather than just sliding the features around on the face to give the illusion of 3 dimentions the characters had individual face shapes to flow between to make the turns SUPER smooth on every angle.

Having seen the movie I believe this 100%.  Was it overkill?  Possibly, but damn it looked GOOD.

[mylittlenanaki]

It’s funny. I remember Lauren Faust one time commenting about how media targeted specifically for women or young girls are criticized more harshly than those made for boys. And here we are.

[waggtoon]

Also of note, it’s unknown officially what the exact budget for the film was but it’s said to be around 8 to 30 million dollars, the usual minimum budget for a theatrical animated feature these days is around 50 million to 65 million dollars. The fact that they managed to make the movie look this good on such a small budget is an amazing accomplishment (also the animators worked overtime through 7 day weeks towards the end of production to get the film finished on time).

There’s also the fact that while the film does include celebrities voicing the newer characters, the main cast from the show have all their original voice actresses/actors from the TV series, something that is extremely rare for big screen cartoon adaptations as they usually just recast the main characters.

I know everyone is entitled to their opinion and that this film isn’t perfect, but come on! It at least deserves more respect than The Emoji Movie!

[wintermoth]

talk shit about this movie around me I dare you

[the-thrashy-one]

Ah, but the emoji movie DID offer something that the MLP movie couldn't.

It offered the insipid, lowest common denominator drivel that the lobitomized dudebros who write for IGN enjoy. :^)

[yourladyindank]

Unpopular Opinion

Black Panther doesn’t look very diverse.

I would argue the captain America movies and the iron man movies are actually more diverse than black panther.

[yeezy-nation]

are white ppl not getting enough air time or something

[d3vilsk3ttl3]

Poor whitey :( it must be so hard not being the center of everything. I’m sorry you have to see us negros having a good time for once :(

[yeezy-nation]

“i get 90% of the attention all the time but let me compain abt the 10% im not getting!!!!”

[yourladyindank]

What white person you talking about?? I don’t see em.

[yeezy-nation]

and i dont see your whole argument of not enough white ppl being on tv but what i do is coonery for one

[yourladyindank]

First of all, eat your own ass your stupid racist bitch, and second off, this ain’t about fuckin white people. This is about general diversity.

I didn’t say the movie was bad, I didn’t say black people shouldn’t have all black films and shows. I said having a mostly black cast doesn’t make them DIVERSE. Do you know what the fuck diversity is? Or did your baby daddy pull you out of highschool early?

[doubleicon]

I’m guessing your lite bright ass is pressed cause the cast is dark skinned

[trapcard]

that’s why they hairline look like the caucus mountains

[racefaker]

Those eyebrows tried to kill me in my sleep

[rashemibabe]

She sound like she live with her white parent no offense lmao or full offense I haven’t decided yet.

[yourladyindank]

Stating a damn fact with no positive or negative inflection is being astray?

Bitch I don’t want to be in line with y'all asses then.

[rashemibabe]

I’m sorry to tell you that saying “Black Panther doesn’t look that diverse” is in fact negative lmao that’s not as neutral as you think it is. And by astray I mean how do you, as a Black person, not see the importance of having so many Black people in a movie? A movie that’s not promoted at just us like Tyler Perry movies or other BET movies. Its a big time Hollywood film with Dark skin actors that aren’t playing stereotypes etc like we never ever see that… It’s a progressive as far as Hollywood movies go.

[ladha]

That’s just a white woman doing a minstrel cosplay sis

[cute-st]

It’s weird that Latinos, Arabs, Asians etc always want to talk about diversity when black ppl get roles. Why not take it up with the white ppl that made your invisible. Black ppl are seen very stereotypically in Hollywood so these roles aren’t going to you anyway. Black ppl over every other races had it hardest in America especially in media and where literally blacked out from tv. Take you bitter asses elsewhere. Next time I watch a Chinese set film I’ll need to see Arabs and Africans so it promotes diversity 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

[yourladyindank]

I’m not latino, Arab, or Asian.

It’s also fine that it’s not diverse, I never said it needed to be

It’s just not diverse

[kamiyu910]

“Black ppl over every other races had it hardest in America especially in media…” @cute-st

#1, this ain’t some competition. Don’t go downplaying the problems other people have had because “black people have had it worse!!” Especially when there has only been one single Native American who has ever won an Oscar, and that was for a song from Dances with Wolves… I saw a lot of comments from the Native community just being happy that Adam Beach made it into a big time film (Suicide Squad), even though they spent absolutely no time developing his character. They might as well have had a cardboard cutout.

Facts should be your friends. Don’t lie. Just focus on the actual problems going on in Hollywood. We don’t need diversity for something to be good and no one has said Black Panther not being diverse is a bad thing. It’s perfectly fine. Everyone is too hyper focused on making everything diverse, that they forget it’s about storytelling and entertainment. That’s why there have been so many flops lately, it’s too much pandering and bullshit, and not enough actual quality time spent on making something good.

I’m not going to accept just anything just because “oh look representation hur!” People shouldn’t push for identity politics so much that we lose sight of humanity and start throwing insults at anyone who disagrees, or who says something that seems like it might be negative. There is nothing wrong with what OP said, it only seems wrong because so many people are too focused on “diversity = good.” Diversity does not mean something is good.

[illogical-bullshit]

TL;DR:

“Not-(majority)white” is not by definition “Diverse”, and “Diverse” does not mean a movie is actually good. 

I mean, jesus, just look at the ghostbusters reboot…

-Mod Gemini

[stalker-among-the-stars]

@illogical-bullshit do you really think that the people @keyhollow is arguing with didn’t rip off their clothes and violently masturbate to the Ghostbusters reboot in the middle of the theaters?

[werewolf-cuddles]

All those people arguing with OP clearly have no idea what diversity actually means

[rainbowloliofjustice]

I’m still in awe at the fact that these mofos call themselves not racist but called OP a coon

[calico-commander-deactivated201]

This is some appalling racism, I can’t even read half the responses to OP without feeling my skin crawl!

[thevictoryfire88]

Diversity in film is having a fair amount of different raced actors in it. If a movie has an all Japanese r Chinese etc cast it is still not diverse.

So OP is correct. Also way to say she is not “black enough” because she is light skinned. Damn do I hate the whole dark skinned verse light skinned bs. It’s racist in your own race..

But what do I know. I’m just a  white female..

[bluebreeze52]

Seriously, what is it with black people on the internet resorting to petty insults and shouting “coon” when they find a black person who disagrees with them? And assuming anyone who disagrees with them is white? I’m really getting sick of this shit. You’re becoming as racist as the people you claim to fight against.

Anyway, like everyone else has said, diversity does not make something automatically better, and having a whole cast be non-white is not diversity if it’s still just one race. People need to get a grip.

[thevictoryfire88]

Well said.

[beyondphere-deactivated20190626]

It’s scary to people that define a huge facet of who they are based on their race. To see someone of the same race NOT doing that is a total mind fuck to them It undermines their own fragile sense of identity, to see that something you’ve put so much stock in not actually mattering or defining you. It’s why a lot of black people hate other black people who don’t fall into the stereotype of african AMERICAN Being black is ‘who they are’ to some, when people don’t follow that mindset they can’t get their head around it because, to them at least, it’s normal to define WHO you are based off WHAT you are. Same goes to anyone who defines themselves by unchoosable physical traits. If changing bodies made a part of who you are no longer functional, it’s time to reconsider if that’s who you really wanna be.

[the-thrashy-one]

Those who define themselves by birth features they did nothing to achieve (skin color, nationality, gender, sexual orientation etc.) are the most ridiculous type of person I can imagine. While most people EARN their accolades by going out and doing something that's actually worth heralding as a major part of their identity (being an artist, a scientist, a volunteer for humanitarian causes etc.), THESE people think they should be showered with praise just for existing. "I was born with higher melanin levels, THIS IS THE TOTALITY OF WHO I AM!"

Simply pathetic and a waste of potential.

Patreon is Shit!!

I get so sick when some people, who actually don´t even have an idea about Patreon, complain about it anyway. Stop being an ungrateful fuck and start thinking for once.

Patreon helps artist to do what they enjoy and more important what  YOU enjoy. Some artist are finally able to do their Comics or other stuff they wouldn’t be able to make without their supporters of Patreon. Some of them maybe just would have a “normal” job and wouldn’t even have time for such great things, and other would just have to take a ton of commissions. I don´t say that every artist has a fair Patreon page, but the most artist do and they are trying really hard to keep it fair to their Patreons and their Supporters on all the other websites.

I personally always post some picked art pieces in the same month my Patreon get them, mostly just 2 weeks later since Patreon has early accesses. Is that unfair? No you guys still don´t pay a cent to see my content, that I´m just able to make thanks to Patreon.

So stop complaining

(( I´m from germany and I know my english isn´t perect so if your only argument is to complain about my english, then just go. also this rage is mostly for people who complain about Patreon I know there are so many diffrent ways to support an artist, but I just want to make this clear for people who just don´t get it)) 

[acrimoniousjester]

Anybody who relies on selling porn on Patreon for income is a loser and needs to work towards getting a better job of their current one can’t provide them with enough money to compare to their living standards. Now, if it’s just for extra money for shits and giggles, that’s not a big deal. But I hate seeing people beg and whine for Patreon donations because they’re barely able to support themselves at a given time.

Got my new Wonder Woman adult coloring book today ...

Woohoo!

Aww. Look at all this fun art!

Can’t wait to color all these amazing …

… pages …

… what …

… the eff …

… is this?!?

There are literally 8 pages of smoochy Superman/Wonder Woman art in this WONDER WOMAN coloring book. 

If I’d wanted to purchase an effing “worst mistakes of the New 52″ coloring book … 

… or a “totes boss plan concocted by DC’s top dudebros to get other bros into Wonder Woman” coloring book 

… or a “she’s now Superman’s hot girlfriend” coloring book …

… or an “epically sexist betrayals of feminist icons” coloring book …

… I effing would have.

Ahhhhh. All better now.

[slytherho-deactivated20171229]

This is embarassing

[thetallblacknerd]

Holy shit 8 pages of her with her love interest? Thats almost all the pages! Having a love interest totally removes any and all merit from Wonder Woman! I am the outrage!

[slytherho-deactivated20171229]

Literally the notes are full of people praising a grown man for throwing this bitch fit over a coloring book just because they hate the ship.

This is fucking sad lmao

[thetallblacknerd]

He used all the right buzzwords. He must be drowning in all the compliments from naïve girls that think its sexist and antifeminist for WW to have a bf; ignoring the fact that Supes is in HER book and how OP is the one reducing her because STRONG WOMEN CANT FUCKING BE IN RELATIONSHIPS APPARENTLY. GODDAMN I HATE THESE GUYS

[yellowjuice-deactivated20190512]

“epically sexist betrayals of feminist icons”

[pope-pius-xiii]

Wonder Woman was originally bondage fetish porn

[satanic-anti-feminist-deactivat]

uhmmm i think i’d want a source for that, wtf.

also, i would say this guy’s actually being sexist by assuming that the romance would be something forced from the male side of things and that if they were in a romance wonder woman would as a rule be an accessory of the male.

i would say he’s perpetuating gender stereotypes by implying that it’s necessarily superman initiating the situation.

i mean, maybe wonder woman is just a strong independent woman who felt like getting herself some juicy superman cock in this book, he don’t know.

another incident of a man policing a strong independent woman’s sexuality i see, uwu. but it’s ok if it’s a feminist who does it against someone who decides to share their sexuality with a man. because let’s face it, it’s not the woman’s sexuality that is the problem, it’s that she’s sharing it with a man that is the problem.

Let's go down the male feminist checklist, shall we? ☑ White male ☑ Hipster glasses ☑ Scrawny ☑ Awful hairstyle ☑ Affluent (just look the gaudy plants and hipster-ass decor in the background) ☑ Offended over sex-positive portrayals of women ☑ Terribad attempt at wit ☐ Flaunts ill-defined math degree Congrats, guy - you meet 87% of male feminist characteristics! Now all you need is a dubious math degree to boast about, and you'll be rolling in feminist pussy in no time flat. ;D PS: Don't forget to check that male privilege and append each sentence with "m'lady"!

Like what did you get out of adding this? Is the idea of not equating gender and genitals this hillarious to you?

[the-thrashy-one]

It might behoove you to cultivate a sense of humor. Sorry to bring hard reality crashing down upon you, special snowflake, but your gender identity is not of preeminent concern to most people. Hard to believe, I know.

[the-thrashy-one]

Sherlock, if you’re gonna reply to me then you should make sure you have the mental clarity to type your response in the text field as opposed to the TAGS, you fucking muppet.

And yes, I AM aware of the shitty Evangelical fanatics screaming at transgender people for using the “wrong” restrooms, and I’m very much against their ignorant bullshit. Wherever I encounter them, I’ll call them out for the regressive religitards that they are. But guess what? Being a supporter of trans people (or any marginalized group, for that matter) does NOT necessitate that I reform my sense of humor, so how about you piss off, you self-entitled little snowflake? 

Oh, and while you’re at it, you can take that “punching up” bullshit and shove it right back up the malodorous abyss from whence it came. :P

[furlockhound-inactive-moved-dea]

A lot of transpeople don’t like “inclusive” language like this because it triggers their dysphoria when you keep drawing attention to their biological sex.

In the case of a transwoman they want you refer to them as a woman, not “a woman with a dick” because that’s exactly what a bigot would do.

[the-thrashy-one]

I’m aware of this, which is why I will go out of my way to address trans people by their preferred pronouns. But this isn’t about me and how I address my trans friends, this is about people being allowed to have a sense of humor about any subject they please - yes, even “sore subjects” like transgenderism. I despise seeing the keyboard warriors of Tumblr descend upon others like a pack of rabid wolves just for saying something they found unpalatable, and of course I’m going to call out that nonsensical mob mentality when I see it.

[furlockhound-inactive-moved-dea]

I was really agreeing with you about OP being an idiot.
