Okay, so don't watch them then. Not everything needs to be marketed towards you.
Nah Im with him, why do they make so goddamn many?
Its because America is connected to Mexico and has a lot of em there.
For people anywhere else in the world it seems odd theyre so obsessed with Mexicans and their 3 pieces of culture (Burritos, DotD, wrestling)
demographics is destiny.
Spics are a big demographic, but Mexico is the only country Hollywood knows/cares about, you won't ever see a cartoon about Peru or some shit like that.
I mean, I guess there was the Emperor's New Groove and its show, but my point is that it's not exactly a common thing.
it'd be more interesting if they actually made media about MEXICAN culture, not mexican-american-kid-who-only-ever-learns-about-his-culture-on-taco-tuesday "culture"
i like stories about various different myths and folktales but i'm so sick of boring uninspired brown goblinoids going all mama papa taco burrito at me
Based, if you're interested in mythos I'd recommend Bless Me Ultima and give it a read, it's not Cinemaphile but it has a movie too.
This, give us more Mesoamerican and Aztec shit.
People b***h about that too and shit on the aztec batman thing, there was a spammer here who was obsessed with pretending it's condoning human sacrifice which was moronic but would be cool and metal if it was true
>but they made batman brown
they made batman into fricking ninjas and pirates and victorian detectives before
Anyways like half of those cartoons are about mythology in some way, I'm surprised OP didn't try to shit on Onyx Equinox
Encanto is set in 1920's Colombia, not Mexico
>lol same shi-
Yes we know you're moronic.
Also El Tigre was good and you have AIDS if you disagree
>N-no these two identical things are totally different I swear its a rich and varied people
>Plot: Tacos family tacos muh heritage
>I'm moronic
Called it.
>So many animated productions celebrating the culture of Latin America
>Barely any cartoons set in or inspired by Brazil
>Home of some of the most ravenous and annoyingly omnipresent people on the planet who will kneel to any gringo movie showing soccer and mulher pelada
Bostilsisters... How do we cope?
You peaked with Ze Carioca
Filipino culture is the worst one for me, they never made any good media animated or live action
Is Turbo really about Mexican culture or something? I haven't watched it.
As for why, well, hispanics are a big demographic, but studios can't just make something for all of them like they'd do with black people, so they usually default to Mexican stuff since that's what USA is actually connected to, and it's the Hispanic/Latino country they know the most about.
That is because what you call "mexican culture" is nothing but some recognoscible tropes for ignorant american tourists.
Nothing wrong with that, since nobody should need to know about some culture in order to appreciate a good story. The thing is if producers make some cartoon like they make any other "american culture" cartoons, but with mexican characters, you wouldn't believe it is a mexican story because there aren't said tropes in it.
You wouldn't call The Sisters a comic about "French culture" the same way you wouldn't call Pokemon a cartoon about "Japanese culture".
And Villanous is exactly that, a cartoon, yeah, made by mexicans, that is it, the other examples are just lazy tourists trap.
