Japan has the oldest average population in the world and is rather desperate to get young people to want to have families and children. It's really no surprise at all that the show would push for that. SolarFire2 fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Jul 25, 2019 |

I probably would have at least been middle of the road towards Mr. Pickles if it didn't have that thing where everyone is YELLING THEIR LINES.

Daikloktos posted:Before they jumped to Adult Swim to make Xavier: Renegade Angel, The Heart She Holler, and currently The Shivering Truth, PFFR did a kid's show parody Wonder Showzen for MTV2 airing alongside Beavis and Butthead reruns and FYAD reject Andy Milonakis' self titled vehicle. Here's a 4 page GBS thread from a few months back that starts out lamenting how underknown it is Maybe it's because I'm getting old, but man do I not 'get' these shows. If they're supposed to be funny I guess I don't understand the humor, and if they're not supposed to be funny I have no idea what they're going for. I've seen episodes of all these shows and they may as well be tablets carved in Sanskrit for all I get out of them.

SlothfulCobra posted:I'm pretty surprised that everybody's already down on it even without John K's involvement. Like I personally hate it automatically because I hated the original show and don't think the IP has anything to offer the current era, but I always got the impression that a lot of people somehow remembered it fondly. Abusive creator aside, I think that Ren and Stimpy has not aged well at all. Edit: Everything Ren and Stimpy did, Rocko's Modern Life did better.

Bobbin Threadbare posted:I believe the idea is that the New Order had just tracked them through hyperspace, and while the audience knows it's some new technology of theirs, the best assumption the rebels could make is that someone on board is a mole. With that in mind, sharing the plan with anyone is dangerous, since even if they aren't the mole they could end up telling the mole and ending any chance they would have of getting anywhere safely. That would have made sense, but the movie always picks the worst option. We see Leia show off that she's got some sort of doodad that will allow Rey to find them once she finds Luke, and then in the very next scene they find out the First Order is tracking them. These two things must be connected, right? Nope. Okay, then there's a spy on board. makes sense, since tracking through hyperspace is supposedly impossible. Nope, some random rear end security guard not only knows the First Order has this technology, but how it works and exactly how they implement it. It's just badly written.

I appreciate you posting these critiques, because it distillates a huge problem I've had with modern Simpsons that I don't think I could have articulated on my own. "Whereas 'classic' Simpsons mocked celebrity, new Simpsons worships it."

Shindragon posted:The crappy thing is the one who started the tweet didnt wanna cause drama/cancel but twitter being twitter uses it as platform to air out their personal grief/slight against her. I have no doubt some people had bad experiences working for Viv/studio but its definitely being a little drowned out by the mob. "I don't wanna cause drama but I'm going to make a big post in public how my former boss, whom I shall call out by name, is an abusive rear end in a top hat." Yeah, right. No drama.

A.o.D. posted:I hate to do this, because I agree with the overall sentiment, but Homestar does have problems with has and have, at least so far as the slogan for the Homestarmy goes. Still to this day I have a bad habit of leave for work in the morning without phone, keys, glasses or some other essential item. I have a printed out Homestarmy 'Do You Has?' poster by my bedroom door with those items listed on it.

My sister works as a volunteer at Comic Con every year, and one of her tasks is usually to help out presenters and hosts of one of the awards shows, I think the Eisners. Anyways, she tells me this year one of the people she's going to be working with this year is Maurice LaMarche, and since I'm such a big animation fan is there anything I'd like for her to pass on from me. I told her, 'Yes. Please ask him what he can tell me about a remote farm in Lincolnshire.' This morning I woke up to a video from her, consisting of a man looking into the phone camera. When I play it, I hear him say, "Well, Andrew, to answer your question: We know of a remote farm in Lincolnshire, where Mrs. Buckley lives. Every July in the summer, peas grow there- You really mean that?" And he went on to do the first minute or so of the whole bit, both parts, in full Orson Welles/The Brain voice. I think my life is complete, now.

Dude, what are you dancing about, here? You're poor. Edit: Isn't it clear that I'm just gonna completely f*urp* your rear end up, if you don't take three steps back? It's not, is it?

Warbird posted:Invincible is back for anyone that forgot (read: everyone). Goddamn JoJo rear end release schedule. I’m happy they’re getting money from the streaming services but this is an absolutely rear end way of releasing stuff. Kid, let me tell you about being a fan of a little cartoon called The Venture Brothers....
