You can't even talk to someone who actively prefers the animation style of zombie simpsons to the hand-drawn years. It's like someone saying Paul McCartney's latest solo album is better than Revolver because it wasn't recorded on an analog 8-track and mixed for mono. Like saying Aladdin (2019) was better than Aladdin (1992) because the former is in HD and has expensive CGI. There's a weird thing with the youths nowadays where they want to evaluate art strictly by criteria that can be measured objectively. Did YouTube spread that? It's a very consumerist point of view.


some what related, there professional animators on youtube that have a choice words about dumb people that use software to make cartoons into 60 fps.


more frames = better in games, therefore cartoons are the same right?

Case in point, it was recently revealed by the screenwriter, that in a test screening of Man of Steel, the WB executives didn't like the decision to use the ship Superman arrived on Earth as a baby to destroy the evil Kryptonian ship in the finale. When asked why, they said "How is Superman supposed to return to Krypton?"

didnt another exec for Superman Returns , have an idea that was basically Spiderman's vemon suit, but superman? also dude had a massive obsession with giant enemy spiders.

e: also looking at the Simpsons wiki, lol at their un uniform standards, prez Schwarzenegger's page pic is a ms paint cut out, Colin is just a fuzzy screen cap, but the EPA bad guy is a clean vector.

The only thing worse than the show actually getting bad is people constantly trying to do some weird accelerationism poo poo about when the show got bad like some kind of elitist mockery except it's not a joke

Like there are people in this thread I think who have said unironically that the best seasons are 1 and 2, "and it only got worse after that" or something.

Season 7 is nearly perfect dude, stop it. Season 8 and 9 are still better than just about anything put out on TV ever. No they're not the S+ tier untouchable perfection of a few seasons before but it's not like they started making duds.

Gall!!!!

So what your saying is that we need to go lower and say it went bad in season 0 or even the negative seasons.

I think the most offputting part of this horribly unfunny, horribly animated clip is the effusive praise in the comments. Like, there are people specifically praising the animation. Were they paid off? Were they burner accounts of Simpsons crew members? I'm just so befuddled.

Seriously, there is a scene of him flat out sucking on French fries. Why.

this looks worst than the worst and cheapest anime food porn scene, and I mean work safe food porn and not typical herrherr all anime is hentai lcd level joke that Modern Simpsons would probably do.

A ‘Simpsons’ Episode Lampooned Chinese Censorship. In Hong Kong, It Vanished.

Not much of a surprise no way Disney would risk the China market. Would be fun if for no reason China demanded Duffless be removed from global streaming or they'll block the next Marvel film from release to watch how fast Disney complies.

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/29/world/asia/simpsons-hk.html

If I was China I would ask them to memory hole Winnie the Pooh,either they dont do it and China has a line / future goal to succeed at, or they do it and its a big alpha chad win for them.

He looks like someone used a fan character generator to make themselves, and posed a scene.

isnt this most celeb cameos these days?

A celeb of a certain powerlevel is never going to allow their face/image to be "massaged" to fit in with a cartoon's art style so you just get stuff like Rogan or that time Bradd Pitt of Matt Damon cameo d in Arthur.

iirc Tartakovsky was on a theoretical short list to direct more Star Wars stuff, but Lucas was absolutely livid that Tartakovsky's Clone Wars was so popular. that's also why Lucas had someone else do a new Clone Wars, erasing the old one from (then-current) canon.

no idea if there was some other conflict, but much as I'd rather have seen a del Toro Hobbit, I'd rather have seen a Tartakovsky... anything, just about.

How are they non canon? Tartakovsky CW literally ends right before episode 3 and Grievous is injuried from Mace doing a force crush to his chest leading to his handicapped death fight with Obi.

loving diva Lucus.

I've thoroughly enjoyed basically every episode of Family Guy this season. A few years ago and for a long time before that I couldn't stand watching it anymore. I wanna know what happened. It's like The Simpsons is entirely a bunch of people who only want the show's name on their resume but Family Guy managed to get people who actually wanted it to be good again.

whats the point of resume lines if people know its from the zombie era?

hell I might use that as a blacklist or a major negative that needs a ton of other mediocre/neutral/okay stuff or a few of great bangers to cancel out.

didnt the old Flubber movie have a toy slime tie-in that had to be recalled due to it being made of legit bad chemicals. and they ET'ed / aka just buried it somewhere. (because burning it released more chemicals, they couldnt sink it at sea because it floated, and acid/base dissolving it also released worse chemicals)

Like how bad a joke do you need to be to not get into modern simpsions.

well that guy went for slamdance instead of moondance so there's that.

also 1000s of joke pitches sounds like a classic quantity over quality type deal, but i dont know what other shows say about their backroom joke sausage making and their # of pitches.

that's actually dumber than most political cartoons, congrats. like what's the purpose in-universe of the banner? why would they hang that up? it's so reversed engineered. also it's a time lapse where they don't get older and the passage of time isn't marked in any way other than the banner falling apart. the banner doesn't even say anything clever even after they modify it, was this idea so funny and insightful that it had to be told this way? they could have just had homer look into the camera and say "america bad now". gently caress you simpsons

e: they don't even have their own history right, as someone in the replies mentions, maude is shown as a ghost a year before that episode aired.

well atleast they didnt do anything of note for 2001 or 2008/9. (also cowards for stopping at 2012 and not going for the maddness that is post 2015)
