People that think a reboot or remake of a show will erase the original show from history, probably also think that taking down Confederacy statues will make people forget about the Civil War. You know. Morons.

Admiral Joeslop posted:People that think a reboot or remake of a show will erase the original show from history, probably also think that taking down Confederacy statues will make people forget about the Civil War. I mean I can understand where this starts. You get people seeing a new iteration of a thing they enjoyed when they were kids: "What? They've got CHRISTIAN BALE playing Batman now??! WTF the only true Batman is Val Kilmer" And whether the new thing is good or bad, the thing they've got in their heads is "What if people come to associate NEW VERSION OF THING with THING IN GENERAL, as opposed to MY VERSION OF THING???" I will freely admit that in my earlier years I was pretty well susceptible to this thinking. It pissed me off when 13-year-old kids would post movie reviews like "Bambi? Why would anyone even watch such an old movie lol it's like 20 years old"* and I thought somehow that the new generation of KIDS THESE DAYS would flood the world and everything good about previous generations of movies and media would be lost because it was considered old and hokey and therefore worthless. *actual review I read But time after time this proved to be a groundless fear. True, most remakes in recent years have failed to surpass their antecedents. Robocop, Total Recall, Ghostbusters — the remakes are all quickly forgotten, and the originals remain definitive. But even in cases where the newer iterations don't get simply swept under the rug, e.g. Star Wars prequels / new movies, the reality is that history simply does not disappear. There's no reason to fear a reimagining. The old version will never go away. It's okay. There are real things to fear in the world. But the things people actually seem to fear, and base their worldview on those fears, are equal parts laughable and unutterably sad

He-Man and She-Ra I remember pretty much being examples of shows that only existed to sell toys to kids. Like, there’s nothing to them at all to get worked up over. The fact people are now making shows for girls that aren’t complete voids of substance is cool, and screw anyone who’s against it.

I have a friend who will actually share his old IOSM posts from years back and discuss how he grew out of bad opinions and I have insane amounts of respect for him because of it. I quietly delete mine and pretend they never happened.

Like rabidly so. They sit and watch it enraptured. He mocks it relentlessly, especially the ludicrous toys and playsets that are lovingly rendered on-screen in perfect plastic detail, but they legit love it as a show

I don't think it's even that, it's that they get outraged at any evidence of "creeping SJWism" and since the toy commercial cartoon from 30 years ago isn't showing cleavage, Feminism has won and all men are soy boys now, I fear.

Thundercats, Transformers, Go Bots, Ghostbusters, the Real Ghostbusters, MASK, MLP, etc. You're correct that He-Man was the first toy commercial cartoon though, such cartoons were banned as "advertising to children" before Reagan's FCC director basically gutted all ad regulations in 1981 quote:During the 1970s ACT tried to get advertising banned from children's broadcasting altogether, but reached a compromise with the NAB in 1973 that limited advertising to twelve minutes per hour. ACT then began a campaign to have advertising banned from all programming aimed at preschoolers. The activist group challenged the broadcasters on many other fronts regarding programming content. In short, ACT was a force to be reckoned with whenever the group felt that the FCC was not enforcing regulatory standards. Unfortunately, Sarson and Charren were about to run up against a force far greater than a recalcitrant TV station -- the 40th President of the United States. zoux has a new favorite as of 18:36 on Jul 16, 2018 |

For someone to not just publicly proclaim, but also basically brag about being sexually attracted to her as an adult is absolutely mind boggling to me. GrandpaPants posted:So a bunch of nerds are upset about the She Ra redesign because nerds + Internet = idiots on Internet I didn't grow up watching She-Ra, but I actually like the new design way more than the old one. Are people man that they gave her a smaller chest and also covered it up? Also, I guess she does sort of look like Hank Venture, but I still really like it.

Field Mousepad posted:Either Kathy is blind or crazy, Michelle Obama always dressed dapper as gently caress. I always love the whole "Michelle Obama" is ugly schtick. I can understand if someone says she isn't their type, but the people who say she looks like a monkey or that she is butt ugly are clearly racist fucks. Double lol at criticizing her clothes, I dunno how much more elegant you want than how she pulled herself off half the time. I also really love the people who claim they didn't protest or complain when Obama was president. You can tell they're being honest because they're still complaining about him over petty poo poo (like the aforementioned Michelle is ugly and wore garbage clothes comment lmbo) almost 2 years since he has even been president.

Similar to the comments that are always made about Serena Williams looking like a man. Never understood them, because I'd be gayer than laughter if men had tits and asses like Serena's.

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ e: No, you see, she's not wearing bright lipstick and I can't see her cleavage, so how am I supposed to tell that she's a woman? Beauty is gone from the world! TheCIASentMe posted:Which is especially confusing to me because the only jokes I hear about Melania are regarding her escaping/divorcing Trump. Occasionally I will hear someone comment on Melania's politics but never regarding looks or decorum. I've usually seen it when people make fun of her accent, or how she looks completely repulsed by her own husband in publicity photos. And that stuff is enough to get certain people posting about how it's nice to have an attractive first lady again. It's really weird when I see it, but she's been very minimally public lately so there's not as much of it. Skwirl posted:There was that week we thought Trump murdered her. (She was definitely murdered and "Melania" is one of the body doubles they have like Saddam used to) It was definitely more than a week, maybe closer to 3. And yeah, Melania is dead as hell, but Melanie is alive and well.

Michelle Obama wanted to help stem childhood obesity and got poo poo on for it. Melania stole a speech from her, and did that weird "Be Best" poo poo. Melania doesn't do poo poo and should be made fun of. She's a trophy First Lady.
