Do I even want to know why and how the SU thread got this air of notoriety? I can't guess because I can come up with five contradictory answers.

Since it was apparently so awful is it possible to preemptively ban SU chat from this thread? Just a hunch.frank.club posted:Sithsaber should come back. That guy was a righteous fire on the AT thread. I kind of figured that the SU thread would be given the starcitizen/hellthread treatment where insane people could generate 5 pages a day and be left alone. You can also do what happened with Fallout 4 and have a "Sane Person" thread and the insane thread that moves at 10000 posts a day. mycot fucked around with this message at 08:59 on Dec 19, 2015 |

He's Multi-bear in Gravity Falls, the main villain Rippen in Penn Zero and he's apparently set up as a new main villain in Dragons : Race to the Edge? He was also the Devil in Rick and Morty (though that might be pushing the definition of recent).

I can agree that the word pandering is sometime used in an uncomfortable way. I'm sure most people don't mean it but there's often the implication that people should be okay with being quietly loathed/ostracized. Like I'd rather a give a kid a corny message than that.Sockser posted:

I think it's worth remembering from a kid's perspective (since this is the kids show thread and all). Children really do form attachments (enough to call something "My Favorite X!") based on pretty simple traits like "is the strongest" or "is a girl".

Thundersword238 posted:Never heard about the born again Christian stuff with Hartman, but I do recall him being really angry about rule 34 for Danny Phantom. I thought it was more to do with most of the characters being 14 from what I read back then though. In retrospect I can't really blame him because people trying to make cartoon porn into casual conversation material is what led to bronies.

Bass Bottles posted:Was that really a plot element? I never read the comics but I saw them on the front page all the time. The comic's equivalent of Loss.jpg is the reveal that Mandy (from Billy and Mandy) caused various large scale disasters during the episode she was the Grim Reaper, including the then-extremely recent Indonesian Tsunami and yes 9/11.

You know I'm just going to take this moment to talk about how people misattribute the inspiration of the Powerpuff Girls all the time. Yes it's obviously anime inspired, but it's super old-school anime, and an arguably shallow take on that too. Mojo Jojo literally talks like a bad Sixties dub. That's why trying to transpose it as an unironic magical girl thing always comes off as wrong.

axleblaze posted:The thing with Utonium's design was was that he was really, really square. Like the concept of his design was to make a guy made up of sharp angles. I was just saying it's odd that they made him look almost exactly the same but rounded some of the angles because There was also that incredibly bizarre joke in the body swap episode where Buttercup (in the Professor's body) can't pick anything up because his fingers can't separate.

X_Toad posted:If the french iTunes viewing order for Gravity Falls is any indication of how it was aired, we, as in the French, seem to be among the most backward nations when it comes to consider cartoons as entertainment for more than kids. As in, we don't believe that cartoons can be serialized. No wait, we made Wakfu, so that doesn't make sense. Wakfu literally had a year between episodes it didn't get a break either.

I only watched it as a kid, and now it doesn't really appeal to me any more, and apparently it went downhill after the early seasons? Spongebob is one of those shows with a really obvious "line of demarcation" between the quality and poo poo episodes. It's when the first movie is released.

Acne Rain posted:Also the design does not look good, but I don't think any cgi show has designs that didn't make people scream "Looks like a nintendo 64 game, my childhood is ruined by this adaptation of something I liked from it!!!!!". To be fair a lot of children's cartoons have really hideous first promotional pics for some reason. The example I always remember is how the first picture of Transformer Animated was the worst possible depiction of the art style.
