I dropped off on Adventure time extremely early on (like the first season?) and I still want to see this.

Samuel Clemens posted:The WWII commentary in the film is somewhat subdued, but you can clearly see Miyazaki's anger at the senseless waste of human life and the autocrathic government responsible for it in certain scenes. For instance, in the final dream sequence, Jiro and his idol Caproni watch a group of Japanese pilots fly off into the distance. Jiro sadly states, "Not a single one came back." To which Caproni replies, "It's not like there was anything to come back to." There's a melancholy to The Wind Rises that you wouldn't see in a pro-war work. Normally when people speculate conservative themes in Japanese works it's less about pro/anti-war and more about the implication that the War was a horrible thing because the Allies ruined everything at no provocation. I'm just mentioning this based on other discussions and the quote you brought up, I haven't seen the Wind Rises still. mycot fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Jan 26, 2017 |

"You're Welcome" and "Shiny" the standout songs, Grandma the standout character imo. I found it amusing nearly all of the B characters were played by New Zealanders.

Drifter posted:I don't get it, what made the show dire? You just say it wasn't for you because people cheered when they sang a song?

At the time stuff like the Pandora Fever seemed out of nowhere, but I feel like social media and the meme machine has developed between then and now. We get a new Oncler phenomenon, like, once a month.

Snowglobe of Doom posted:2009 was an age ago. Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit and youtube were still fairly new, Instagram was still 3 years away, the most popular memes were Xzibit and Ceiling Cat, the rage comics and advice animals memes had only just been invented, Bronies didn't exist yet and Furries were still frowned on by almost everyone. Despite what I said, I dunno if I'd agree with that. Like it probably would have made the high even higher and more insane, but it would have been out the door just as fast. To be replaced with the next hot new thing like...sexy Wendy's girl fanart? IDEK.

Full Metal Alchemist is really notable for being like one of the only action shonen series to actually come to a pre-planned climax and conclusion, instead of running mindlessly for 10+ years till abrupt cancellation.

Unmature posted:Why does everyone hate Cartoon Brew so much? Like, I know it's lame and has very little of value and barely updates, but people online act like you're talking about Breitbart. The writers aren't like literally the worst people ever, but they've always been mean and petty on like a personal level. Like the last time I gave any sort of attention to that site was when the Clarence Cartoon Network scandal was going around, and they linked to the victim's twitter and personal information in their articles despite her wishes just because it's not like she could do anything about it.
