THIS IS THE HARDEST I HAVE LAUGHED IN SO LONG YOU HAVE CURED MY DEPRESSION

[ywg]

This is one of the greatest posts I’ve ever witnessed. The payoff was amazing.

[anotherpapercut]

apparently my boss who is a professor at my school doesn’t have a cell phone and his coworkers were upset by this so they bought him a childs toy phone and labeled it “David’s jitterbug” (for those of you that don’t know jitterbugs are phones made for old people that have like massive buttons and shit) so the other day I walked into his office to ask him a question and he pressed a button on it which made it start loudly playing the ABCs and he said “excuse me I have to take this” and then started singing along to the ABCs while shooing me out of his office

[anotherpapercut]

this is the phone. he apparently was in the middle of a meeting with the department the other day and got annoyed so he pressed a button, said “I have to take this” and left

[beka-tiddalik]

David’s co-workers probably: “This is a valid tactic to embarrass him into buying a mobile phone, right?”

David: “Bold of you to assume that I get embarrassed.”

Hey Dreamworks. How are you? Good? Great. That makes me really happy. Can we talk for a second?

You made boss baby into a tv series for Netflix. Fun! It was a cute movie, with a pretty decent story. Now maybe I’m being an obsessive fan here, but you made a movie a couple (almost six) years ago.

“Rise of the Guardians”. And that was pretty awesome too. With beautiful art. And good characters. It inspired me a lot. Not to mention helped me with my fear of the dark, and got me interested in art later on (To be fair I probably should have been over my fear of the dark by that age anyway, but honestly, I was ready to throw my nightlight out I was so confident then).

And I LOVED that movie. I still do. I mean sure, it’s probably forgotten by some people, and it didn’t do great in the box office, but:

It did do better than The Boss Baby. At least rating wise. I can’t really use the box office to back me up since The Boss Baby made roughly (according to my calculations, which are probably incorrect, please correct me if I’m wrong):

While Rise of the Guardians didn’t do quite as well:

But you can’t deny the ratings. People liked this movie!! You still have fans out there!! But we are a dying crowd. Your other shows are fantastic! Voltron, Trollhunters, I love them! And I think people would love a rise of the guardians show as well. Maybe 2D animation? Something simpler?

You could really explore this world more! The movie did have a great ending, but I just feel like there is more to explore! More characters! World building! Backstory for other characters besides Jack! (WHERE IS JAMIES DAD). I probably just sound like another girl still fantasizing over Jack Frost, and you’ll probably brush this off or not even see it. That’s fine. I’m not a fan because I think Jack is hot, I’m a fan because these characters formed my childhood. I just wanted to put this out there.

Theres a new generation of kids out there who can be inspired, just like I was! All because of a TV show about a movie that came out six years ago!! Isn’t that crazy? I know this dumb post on my irrelevant blog won’t do anything to get us a show, but this is something I’ve been thinking about for a while.

This movie has potential to be carried on in a TV show, with plot that couldn’t be carried through in another movie. Sure, you probably wouldn’t be able to get the original voice actors back. There are a lot of other incredibly talented voice actors out there who could carry these roles on fantastically! There are probably other reasons why this movie can’t be made into a tv show. That’s alright. I just wanted to put this out there.

I don’t want to put anyone in an uncomfortable situation, or be rude, or do anything that isn’t positive in this post. I’m not trashing on the Boss Baby! If you (Dreamworks) think it can be a good show, then I have high hopes for you! I’m sure you can make it great! I just don’t think it will get the same attention as other shows, like Voltron or Trollhunters. Like perhaps a rise of the guardians show would??? Maybe I’m insane. Sorry for bugging you all with a dumb post, but I just really love Rise Of The Guardians.

Thank you for reading.

EDIT: I know you need Mr Joyce’s input on this before this goes anywhere. So Mr Joyce, is by some MIRACLE you see this, I want to to thank you for making my childhood full of wonder. Your stories deserve to be spread to another generation of boys and girls who need it more than ever right now. I know you probably don’t want them spread through a TV series, but I was introduced to these characters stories through the movie, and I think perhaps children could be introduced to them through a fun TV show. I sound insane, and needy, but this movie really does mean a lot to me. By no means do I intend to insult your work by suggesting the beauty of your stories can only be carried onto the next generation through a screen, that is not what I’m saying, I just think a new generation of kids could be shown these characters through it. You’ve done an incredible job. Thank you.

[kingofnxghtmares]

I just want to say that I asked Mr. Joyce about Netflix making an RotG series and he gave me this reply:

He wants RotG on Netflix. He’s trying, guys!! He just wants us to keep the fandom alive enough for Netflix to get off their asses and take notice.

If you want Rise of the Guardians to have its own series on @netflix , then we need to keep talking about it!!

What we really need is an adaptation of the original 1740 The Beauty and the Beast

So were you aware that the The Beauty and the Beast story we all know is a heavily abridged and rewritten version of a much longer novella by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve?  And that a lot of the plot holes existing in the current versions exist because the 1756 rewrite cut out the second half of the novella, which consisted entirely of the elaborate backstory that explains all the weird shit that happened before?  And that the elaborate backstory is presented in a way that’s kind of boring because the novel had only just been invented in 1740 and no one knew how they worked yet, but contains a bazillion awesome ideas that beg for a modern retelling?  And that you are probably not aware that the modern world needs this story like air but the modern world absolutely needs this story like air?  Allow me to explain:

The totally awesome elaborate backstory that explains Beauty and the Beast

Once upon a time there was a king, a queen, and their only son

But while the prince was still in his infancy, in a neat reversal of how these fairy tales usually go, the king tragically died, leaving his wife to act as Regent until their son reaches maturity

Unfortunately, the rulers of all the lands surrounding them go, “Hmm, the kingdom is ruled by a woman now, it must be weak, time for an invasion!”

And the Queen goes, “Well, if I let some general fight all these battles for me, he’ll totally amass enough fame and power to make a bid for the throne; if I want to protect my son’s crown, I have no choice but to take up arms and lead the troops myself!”

(Btw, I want to stress that this woman is not Eowyn or Boudica and nothing in the way her story is presented suggests that she had any interest martial exploits before or in any way came to enjoy them during these battles.  This is a perfectly ordinary court lady who would much rather be embroidering altar covers for the royal chapel and playing with her child until necessity made her go, “Oh no, this sucks, I guess I have to become a Warrior Queen now” and she just happened to kick ass at it anyway.)

And the Queen totally kicked ass, but the whole “twice as good for half the credit” thing meant that no matter how many battles she won, potential enemies refused to take her and her army seriously until she had defeated them so no sooner would she fend off one invasion than another one would pop up on a different border.

So she spent the majority of her young son’s life away from the castle leading armies, but it was OK because she left him in the care of her two best friends, who just happen to be fairies!  This was an awesome idea because a) fairies have magic, and therefore are like the best people to protect the prince from any threats and b) fairies consider themselves to be so above humanity that the lowest fairy outranks the highest mortal, so they’d have no interest in taking a human throne.  Good thing they were both good fairies instead of one good and one evil one!

(Spoiler:  they were not both good fairies.)

So the two fairies basically take turns raising the prince until he’s old enough to rule.  And on the eve of his twenty-first birthday, the evil older one comes into the prince’s bedroom.

“So listen, kid.  You’re about to become king, your mother’s on her way home from the war to see you crowned, and I have a third piece of good news for you!  You see, I’ve actually been spending so much time here lately because Fairyland’s become a bit too hot to hold me for reasons totally not related to me being secretly evil.  And if I have to hang in the human world, I might as well reside in the upper echelons of it, so even though as a powerful fairy I completely eclipse your puny human status in a staggeringly unimaginable way, since you’re about to be king and since my premonition that I should stick this whole guardianship thing out because you would be hot one day has totally proved accurate (go me), I will graciously lower myself to allowing you to marry me.  Please feel free to grovel at my feet in gratitude.  (Btw, we can totally start the wedding night now, we’ll tell your mother about it when she arrives tomorrow.)”

#also note that almost always the people saying ‘why can’t i be proud to be white?’#aren’t talking about their heritage#they’re not going to their local historian to learn about france in the 1600s#they’re not learning how to make traditional irish dishes#they’re not studying their genealogy to see where their great-whatever aunt lived#they’re not on duolingo teaching themselves how to speak dutch#they don’t give a shit about what their ancestors were like#what they’re proud of is to be in a position of power and privilege

Seriously. What on earth could a 3 yr old do to “warrant” a gun to the chest???

[aspiringwarriorlibrarian]

Apparently they were in the process of arresting her mother (whom they beat while handcuffed, naturally), also pointed the gun at the head of the child’s grandmother, and pointed the gun at her when she did what any toddler would do and started wailing. The incident gave her one of the worst cases of child PTSD the expert they assigned has ever seen and she’ll need therapy well into her adult years. 

Anyone with even a passing knowledge of gun safety knows that you do not point a gun at anyone you are not willing to kill. So best case scenario these officers were grossly incompetent and worst case they were willing to kill a child for crying. This settlement is the least they deserve.

star wars characters as john mulaney quotes

anakin: when my wife walks down the street, she does not give a shit what anyone thinks of her in any situation. she’s my hero. when i walk down the street, i need everybody, all day long, to like me so much. it’s exhausting.

padme: you have the moral backbone of a chocolate eclair.

obi wan: i’ll keep all my emotions right here. and then one day, i’ll die.

palpatine: and then i said “no.” you know, like a liar.

leia: some people give off a vibe of, right away, they’re like, “do not fuck with me.”

luke: my vibe is more like “hey, you could pour soup in my lap and i’d probably apologize to you.”

han: they’re like, “does that work?” i’m like, “it didn’t NOT work.”

lando: hi, i’m very gay and i’d like a few dollars.

rey: i have had a very long day. i am very small and i have no money. so you can imagine the kind of stress i’m under.

finn: you know those days where you’re like, “this might as well happen”?

poe: i don’t care for these new nazis and you may quote me on that.

kylo: when i’m walking down the street, no one’s ever like, “hey! look at that man!” i think they’re just like, “whoa, that tall child looks terrible! get some rest, tall child!”

rose: i try to stay optimistic, even though i must admit, things are getting pretty sticky.

imma need non artists to shut their cuck mouths for a minute and go and pick up a tablet and pump out some digital art like it’s “so easy” and “isnt worth paying for” because yall can clearly do the work yourselves but are choosing not to for some reason… hm.

[nayuunii]

You gotta love the internet sometimes.

[dmbakura]

“i worked hard for my money and clearly you didnt work hard to draw. 100$ is too much :(((” this is so sad alexa play despacito 

[m1kayu]

I’m gonna need to see what they’re selling before I’d even comment on something. I know that digital art isn’t easy and that it’s time consuming but at the same time, it’s the detail that goes into it that makes the price. Just doing a character isn’t worth $100. Doing a character with a decent background isn’t worth $100. Doing a character with A HIGH DETAIL background is definitely worth $100. It all depends on the amount of detail that goes into it. Well that and there length of time it takes.

[dmbakura]

hmmm no. you cannot just generalize pricing like that. and 100$ for a fully detailed background? you’re kidding me right? depending on speed and skill level of course, it can take minimum ~15 hours for that kind of piece. hell thats being generous for the type of quality people expect

100/15 = 6.66$ USD. that’s below minimum wage. it might come as a surprise but people need to eat, and pay bills. yknow, it costs money to live.

and that’s only the average internet freelancer. you get into professional concept work and character design and that can start in the thousands. 

and this isnt even accounting for equipment (traditional art supplies are expensive, for example) or revisions/back and forth between customer and artist. youre not buying the piece itself. you’re buying the time and skill put into it, and the work it takes to customize it specifically for you.

100$ is fucking chump change, and it’s a goddamn steal for the kind of quality the average artist on here can put out

[imperial-porg]

I was once quoted $750 for a non-digital pet portrait with a solid colored background and the artist’s waiting list was 2 years long because she was so damned busy with commissions.

Makes $100 for a digital work look like a fucking steal.

People need to learn the difference between “overpriced” and “I can’t afford it.” Just because you broke doesn’t mean the good/service/whatever isn’t priced correctly.

[nerdasmic]

I got a deal where I got two (TWO) full-body commissioned character concepts that needed to be designed and that I have the exclusive rights to with no background and it was $350.

THAT IS CHEAP FOR QUALITY WORK.

Stop underpaying artists.
