quote:Why is this article named "tarento" when the English word "talent" can be used to refer to a person? Is the "tarento" spelling used at all in the Japanese media? I think the article would be better served at Talent (person). quote:The Japanese media uses the katakana rendering exclusively - it's considered a wasei-eigo word in and of itself, with its own meaning, not just a transliteration of the English word. English discussions tend to use tarento instead of "talent," since "talent" is often used to describe actors or other performers in general in American media. quote:Actually it should be called Talento instead of Tarento. As there is no differece in Japanese between L and R, it makes absolutely no sense to use an R, where there was an L in the original English word. Besides, it is mostly used as Talento in English articles that discuss Japanese show-business. quote:I agree with Voidvector that this should be Talent (person). The reason the Japanese media use the katakana rendering exclusively is that's how you spell "talent" in Japanese. There is no greater meaning than that. quote:Why is this a page

everyone keeps insisting that anime isn't just cartoons, that's why u end up having tarento wiki entries instead of just talent entry.

But anime is just cartoons. It's loving drawings that are put into goddamn sequence and refreshed to give the impression of motion. They are literally nothing but cartoons.

What really loving gets me, though, is that apparently getting lumped in with "cartoons", which have a pretty goddamn rich history in entertainment, regardless of country, is some sort of grand insult. That and the fact that they think that Japan was aiming anime at older audiences before everyone else, despite the fact that the Flintstones was just The Honeymooners set in the stone age for the entire first season.

Exactly. but people insist on referring to them as "anime" instead of "cartoons". you have people who extensively talk about how much they hate "anime" but don't care about "cartoons" which is dumb as hell. and then you have the spergonauts feeling the need to specifically defend glorious japanese anime and refer to it as not cartoons (even though not so long ago people would normally refer to them as just plain "cartoons" or sometimes "japanese cartoons"). and then you have people bitching about how they show "anime" to kids on tv now as if voltron and all the other 80s/early 90s cartoons from japan weren't anime. as if it matters where the cartoons made to sell toys and dolls were written by a japanese dude or an american dude when every cartoon gets made by cheap south korean labor anyway. thats how you end up with tarento and talent on wikipedia.

I mean, jesus christ, a lot of these people write off western animation entirely just because it's not from Japan. Yes, a lot of mass-produced media is awful, that's always been the case! So you have to dig a little to find the good stuff. And you know what? Start digging in France, because France is a goddamn champ at putting effort into some of their productions!

Luigi Thirty posted:dreamworks-face.png Dreamworks face is really annoying but it hasn't actually appeared in great amount in any Dreamworks movie since Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas (and maybe Bee Movie, I didn't bother with that). It's mostly just a promotional gimmick that gets slapped on posters because most people don't actually notice it on a conscious level.

In my experience, art is something with either A) makes you think or feel, or B) wonder why it is considered art by that definition i suppose clause B may apply. But no, no not at all.
