On episode 9 of Mob Psycho 100 and if it were any longer than it is I would've dropped it by now. I just don't think this show is very good. And any time something cool or a character that I like is introduced they disappear.

And in this episode I've seen a scary evil boss say "kthx" and a guy call someone "noob." Did some fansubs slip into Crunchyroll by accident?

Fair enough if you don't like it, but I get the feeling you might be approaching this show from the wrong angle. It's not really about cool characters or scary evil bosses so much as a story about a shy kid with an unusual talent going through middle school. It just happens to feature the occasional doofus who is eager to sell themself as cool and important.

I think it's telling that an early antagonist, who later goes on to strangle a kid that's maybe five inches shorter than him, refers to himself as the "main character."

What I get from this is that The Hunchback of Notre Dame has some of the most utterly beautiful shots I've ever seen, holy poo poo. It's been so long since I've seen it, and when I did see it, I wasn't a film fan and couldn't really apprehend how impressive the filmatic elements were.

I wonder how the VHS releases have colored peoples thoughts of the Disney animated films. They look entirely different on blu-ray.

Nah, I'm approaching it fine. "Cool" means something I like, not that they have a skateboard and a sick 'tude. Every time the show introduces something I like it abandons it to focus on a terrible character like Mob's brother. And the show is very much not about what you said. The first couple episodes were and then it was about boring nonsense. It's a real letdown to go directly from YOI to this.

What is it you didn't like about Mob's brother? I personally found him to be an understandable and compelling character, even when he was acting reprehensibly.

I don't mean to come across as pestering you for not liking a show that I liked, but I'm genuinely interested in your opinion.

They're not raccoons! Tanuki! Tanuki have giant balls in Japanese folklore.

This is actually a point worth making because tanuki are real actual animals that are native to the islands of Japan whereas raccoons are an introduced and harmful species.

Honestly, they could have just modeled every brick from the get-go and still been ahead. LEGO could even have sent them the specs for each.

You also save a certain amount of time/money on design, since you know your character's base model, for instance.

And no rendering hair or fur :iamafag:

Presumably they would have done that for the original Lego Movie. It's a good thing these movies have been as good as they have, because as cheap as they are to make and with as many assets they can reuse, we're likely getting quite a few more of them.

I get what you mean, but to me that's actually a point in it's favor. I can't quite articulate what it is, either, but there's a certain crudeness to it that works very well with the stories he tends to tell.

I might be totally wrong on this, but Treasure Planet and Atlantis always struck me as Disney trying to do something like Titan AE, which is bizarre because that movie wasn't even a hit. I guess there was some bug going around the animation studios at the time that people wanted more edgy, action-oriented animated movies? Maybe it was due to the popularity of anime at the time?

Samuel Clemens posted:

Atlantis was conceptualised a few years before production started on Titan A.E. It came about because the team behind The Hunchback of Notre Dame really wanted to make an adventure film in the vein of Raiders of the Lost Ark, drawing inspiration from Jules Vernes' stories. Treasure Planet, meanwhile, was a pet project of Ron Clements that he had been trying to pitch since the 80s. I don't doubt that both films were financed at least partly because Disney saw the diminishing returns of its traditional animated films and tried to explore new ideas, but they weren't reactions to a specific project by a competitor.

I'd bet anything that all three movies were heavily influenced by Hiyao Miyazaki's "Around the World in 80 days by Sea."

“His theory was that there was this island with these cavemen on it, and basically a car would go there and pick one out. The caveman would plug their spines into the inside of the car and work as part of the brain (you can see the actual brain on top of the caveman’s head). And that’s how the car can move around, because a caveman is in there attached to the brain and manually turning the wheel. As you can see the tires have bones in them and everything. Steve said that Pixar wasn’t wild about his theory.” - Steve Purcell’s - Sam & Max creator and Pixar employee - theory on how the Cars universe works

Sym-Bionic Titan would have probably been remembered much more fondly if it came out half a decade earlier.

As it happened, it was a mostly average show that didn't quite have the style of Samurai Jack, didn't quite have the humor of Dexter's Lab, and didn't quite have the character of the Powerpuff Girl's. It started to find it's footing just in time for it to not be renewed.
