Animaniacs 2020 staff hated the original Animaniacs

This has been speculated for years, but it’s real, they intentionally made the reboot shit because they didn’t like Animaniacs

        I unfortunately can’t think of any recent tv or film remakes or reboots made by actual fans of the original property in recent times, but in vidya Baldurs Gate 3 was made by a bunch of extreme DnD and bg1/2 fanboys and it’s widely regarded as one of the best games to come out in years.

          homosexualry aside, it's a real shame that an unfinished game that's still being patched is considered as one of the best games in recent years

            Yuji Naka got arrested for inside trading, Naoto Ohshima however did nothing legally wrong and Sega give him back Sonic for NOT leaking info about Dragon Quest mobile games.

            Hirokazu Yasuhara now works for Havok after years working for Nintendo Software Technologies.
            Masato Nakamura is still doing pop music.
            No idea about the remaining staff.

    Isn't this exactly what happened to comics? They hired a bunch of people who hated comics? and now Manga is several orders of magnitude bigger than comics - in the fricking US itself.

      Not for Archie Sonic. For that one they hired an autistic-level fanfiction maker who turned an absolute trash-fire of a comic into something halfway entertaining until legal issues forced a complete reboot. He's struggled ever since, but he clearly loved the comic and still does.

          Say what you will, but SatAM/Archie Sonic existed precisely because fans loved Sonic and wanted more than the sparse plot and characterizations that existed at the time. Just like how the Star Wars books work to flesh out the universe, instead of just "More Adventures of Luke Skywalker".

        I hope you're talking about Ian Flynn. Ken Penders hated the games and was using the lack of actual characterization of lore to publish the comic story he'd been pitching for years that no-one wanted to publish.

    By my understanding they hated the OTHER characters that weren't Pink and the Brain.

    I swear, TTG was the foot in the door for the type of people who hatted comics to sneak their way into Western Animation.
    The TTG writers may have had decent projects later on and grew to at the very least respect what came before eventually, but the damage that mentality has done to Animation is immeasurable.

    Oh wow that makes so much sense! I thought it was just a pretty uninspired reboot but you're right, it makes WAY more sense for numerous people to torpedo their own careers and waste years of their life because they hold a grudge on a cartoon from 30 years ago.

    Reboot showrunners who hate the original can talk all the mad shit they want, if they can actually outdo the original. In theory. I haven't seen it happen before.
    Honestly, these people should not be rebooting successful shows. They ought to reboot failures with intriguing concepts, unrealized potential, or insurmountable limitations at the time. Reboot Loonatics Unleashed, there's almost no chance one can do worse... right?

      Not cartoons, but Wolfman and Perez's New Teen Titans is basically that. The original Teen Titans from like the 50s or whenever was basically erased from history because the New (80s) run was so much better.

    I don't believe this article but I think the practice is done because actual fans would push back against studio heads and demand stuff. Hiring a bunch of cynical danger-haired career climbers without any affinity is much easier for producers who want to mandate bad ideas and have someone to blame if things go badly.

      It’s a combination of this and brain dead executives thinking people that hate the original property will make something more appealing to people who also aren’t fans of the original, while also expecting the OG fans to gobble up anything with the name anyways.

    • 8 months ago

      I don't have to believe this article. Past history and the content itself indicates as much. But you're right, it's probably harder to get a genuine fan to subvert the show the way the executives want, so most of the appropriate talent would already be self-culled. The mindset of the executives themselves can be explained away with trend-chasing, and never having had any respect for any property in the first place. Nothing is sacred.
