That woman plucked an entire T-rex using only a chainsaw and not a nick on it either. Yeah I'd say that's quite an A grade hack job. Karate Bastard has a new favorite as of 15:30 on Nov 20, 2017 |

Phil Lamarr is really pushing that Goblins thing and it's making me feel bad about making fun of it.

Rysithusiku posted:It's not just comics that look worse. I recently ended up watching several hours of Cartoon Network while really high. All the "old" shows are still there, but they all look immeasurably worse than they used to. Several of them even reference the fact that they used to look way better. Like, in the universe of the show. It's a weird fourth wall break that i can only assume is some illustrator's cry for help. Also all coherence, plot, or character has been removed. It's basically just shotgunning colors at faces. Ah, sounds like someone discovered Teen Titans GO!

Someone tell me how this is possible because I like to think it takes effort to make it in the comics and animation business and someone can't refuse to improve their art skills over a decade-plus and then get to work with every respected voice actor.

The answer is usually that the author knows someone through family and/or is weirdly good at networking. Or, just through sheer luck, one of these big names happened upon his work, liked it, and got their friends in on it. No accounting for taste.

HPanda posted:The answer is usually that the author knows someone through family and/or is weirdly good at networking. See also Lin-Manuel Miranda talking about how Patrick Rothfuss' The Name of the Wind is one of his favorite books and how he liked it so much he's making a TV show out of it. As for why Phil LaMarr is pushing Goblins so hard, voice acting is a gig that very famously does not pay well and he probably is going to get a share of the profit from the project.

Some basal tyrannosauroids had feathers (Yutyrannus, which is in fact the largest feathered organism known to have existed, was discovered a number of years back and prompted all this nonsense) but there is no reason whatsoever to suppose that this means Late Cretaceous tyrannosaurs had feathers; 50-60 million years of evolution separate the two! Skin impressions of adult T. rex show clearly that it did not have feathers.

I thought it was weird back when I started growing hair on my face and pits, but now its growing in places where it gets in the way like ears and nose, wtf? for real tho, even whales and dolphins are born with vestigial baby hair, and baby elephants' scraggly hairdos are adorable.
