Dr. Buttass posted:Wreck-It Ralph was a film for children. Kung-Fu Panda and the sequel were films for children. Adventure Time and Gravity Falls are shows for children. None of the things you mentioned are "for children". They're all written to appeal to a wide age range. Casper isn't, it's written pretty much just for kids and it shows.

I think the live-action Casper film was the first thing I ever saw at a real cinema. It was either that or Babe...

Man, if you thought the first live action Casper movie was bad, I hope you all never stumble across the second one - with even worse CGI and less plot! Podima fucked around with this message at 12:04 on Mar 27, 2014 |

Itinerant space bum you mean Ofaloaf posted:If Mort hadn't died he might still be around. Maybe we'll get to see Mort all old and adult-like? or maybe like a seventy-year-old corpse, who knows When the strip first goes up he'll be some crusty old guy we've never seen before. When this chapter is eventually printed, everything after the second run will feature young Mort.

They are for children. The primary target audience for all of those things is children. It's just that when you write something for children, and you don't talk down to them like they're as dumb as you are, you end up with something that appeals to all ages anyway because it's actually loving good. Seriously, this whole attitude that if it doesn't suck then it's not really for children is literally how bronies justify themselves. Don't be a brony, Roger.

I remember watching it once or twice as a kid and I didn't even like it, then. I may have been distracted by the contest I was having in my brain regarding which of the two main characters had the bigger forehead, though.

Space Jam was amazing and one of, if not the, all time greatest. The sequel will be a narcissistic overhyped primadonna that will never be as good as the original.

Comparing your attitude to an identical attitude literally expressed by many people who exist and are alive right now saying the thing is even worse than comparing you to an abstracted idea that has become more of a shorthand for generic evil than any real expression of the horrendous acts they actually perpetrated.

I was trying to think of a way to segue Space Jam arguments into Gunnerkrigg Court and now I'm picturing Jones watching Space Jam. I wonder if Jones can judge aesthetics or if she's unaware that Space Jam is a good movie.

Jones was present for its filming. She understood its cultural significance and observed it accordingly.

Aw, we're back to normal rotd-vision. I was hoping for more wackiness since Kat is still around. I suppose it makes sense that this chapter is from Annie's perspective.

Mort's gonna tell the ROTD about his crossing over, and then the multi-headed mass will crash through the door, bellowing "NOOOOOOO YOU SHALL NEVER LEAVE!" "Unless you fill out this form. Please press down hard, we need it in triplicate. The goldenrod copy is for you!"

I'm still betting the issue is going to be Jones, the rotd will want to clear it with her I'm sure.

Unless Mort's job was providing a reason for Jones to come to and stay at the Court in the first place since she felt a sense of responsibility for the lil ghost.
