What the gently caress is even supposed to be going on in this picture? Why does the invisible blue-haired man have a crystal ball for a head? Why is he loading what appears to be chalk into some sort of amorphous phantasm gun... thing? How is Green Dude's hand grabbing Invisible Dude's ball-head from behind despite the former's arm clearly reaching for it from the front? Why is Green Dude's afro made out of radioactive plutonium? Why does Green Dude switch grabbing arms between the last two panels? Why everything? :psyboom:


You have no idea how bad I wish I could read whatever's in those speech balloons.


(The rest of those are awesome btw)

Thank you for letting me know that you think a character from a Nickelodeon cartoon (or Nicktoon, in the common parlance) is a "stuck-up bitch." That's definitely not doubling down on the creepy.

Edit: Also, said character is an elementary school student.

Thank you for proving that you're a literal Tumblr hugbox-dwelling child that cares way too much about people calling cartoon characters names. And that you've apparently never watched an episode of Hey Arnold in your whole life.

One time in the Adult Swim thread I called Naruto a "big wet French pussy" for not killing some badguy dude, and Aatrek probated me for it.

So...... I guess Aatrek?



I don't get it. I thought Aatrek loved 9-year-old pussies.

As readily as weird subcultures form between partial anonymity and communications that travel at the speed of stupid, it's more surprising when it's possible to think of something that isn't already a fetish.

Probably isn't that hard to invent a new paraphilia just for the sake of it, or someone more enterprising (and less lazy) could turn it into a profit.

Profitsss? On a hunch, googled "ferengi dildo" because Teladi are just a direct ripoff. It has apparently been done already on at least three separate occasions. Didn't see any actual merchandise but not gonna look that hard. :negative:

There does seem to be such a thing, and as much as I would like to post something witty with a "-and don't call me Shirley" reference, there seems to be a lack of Airplane! fanart... so we'll go with the next worst thing.

From what I'm hearing, that's actually supposed to be a joke on how stupid gritty reboots are that nobody loving got, and I'm kinda inclined to believe it in this case because nobody makes something this horrid and cynical in earnest. It hits too many loving bullet points.

Edit: Also, never do that with dialogue subtitles EVER. Not even as a joke.

quote:

Everyone's losing their got-drat minds about Joseph Kahn's dark'n'gritty short film reboot of beloved '90s kids' action franchise Power Rangers, which features near-blockbuster-level production, meticulous editing, and tense scenes between James Van Der Beek and Katee Sackhoff. Holy poo poo, it's amazing! So dark, so R-rated! When can we see this cinematic masterpiece?

Sorry, nerds: Kahn says the joke's on us—and on the Hollywood darkening and grittifying machine that's given us Grown Up reboots of lightweight childhood franchises, board games, and even Batman.

Has there been any recent examples of originally gritty franchises being rebooted as family-friendly? Like how Toxic Crusaders and Robocop got turned into Saturday morning cartoons?

It pretty clearly is, but never underestimate the weird capacity of overgrown children-- re: the biggest and loudest consumers of media--to misinterpret "adult content" with "vindication as adult material." That's been the entire marketing thesis behind WB's adaptation of DC properties since Batman Begins.

It's a clear immature misconception that somehow what types of media speaks to us and how that media is perceived in society at large is synonymous with our depth and capacity as individuals, although there is a solid base of truth to it-- most people will perceive actors who can recite and understand MacBeth and Hamlet as deeper, more sophisticated, and more intelligent than the kids who so meticulously analyzed a late 90s teen show about vampires that they created a giant pop culture encyclopedia, even though both demonstrate different types of real intelligence.

I know it's :can: but I really agree. I felt this way about Man of Steel especially. Not to say that the original Superman live action films were perfect or anything but they were at least fun and kids could enjoy them. Now everything has this bullshit grimdark edge to it for no reason. Mich as I think the Dark Knight Returns is a masterpiece (even with how much I loathe current day Frank Miller) I really blame it for this current trend of everything needing to be ~gritty~ and ~dark~


I seem to recall reading somewhere that this was the only adaption of Watchmen that Moore approved of.
