        It was a fricking chaotic period, less chaotic than ours, but still. Yet, I see that period (late 90s/early 00s) as one of the last great periods of fashion and aesthetic. We got some cool stuff in the late 00s and early 10s with the hipster fashion, but nothing cool or new has happened since 2012, even that period is no where near as aesthetically pleasing as the Y2K period

    The culture from 20 years ago was fundamentally different from today's and being genuine about it without going down the preachy route wouldn't fly on current year TV.
    Look at WW2 games: references to the third reich are scrubbed as much as possible, you have transgender black lesbian on the front line of the battlefield in fluorescent uniform in 1943. All they have to do is open a fricking history book to realize how detached from reality it is, but they don't care because our current era is scared shitless of "problematic" content.
    Take Happy Days: a show meant to reflect the life style of the 1950s, but produced in the late 70s. Take Fonzie who's over 25 and still not married. In the 50s, people would give him weird looks only for that, and would really question the kids that hang with him.
    TL;DR: they won't get the "social aspect" right. It's going to be a 2020 show with a "early 2000s" coat made entirely of pop culture references, so why set it in the 2000s when you're not going to use that time period anyway?

      Fonzie isn't married because he's a fricking hood, they had plenty of those in the '50s and before. Besides, in the world of the show I don't think he's supposed to be that much older than Richie and the others.

          Wait, seriously? I don't keep up with the guy, that's kind of hilarious. I mean, I get revising a pilot until it's good—I've been doing the same thing for some time now for a private project—but this guy's supposed to, I dunno, understand something of what it means to write a cartoon. Don't get me wrong, writing something good and memorable for a cartoon is dick harder than it looks and it's not terribly surprising he turns out to have a loose grasp on that, but to think that this wasn't his first shot at the task doesn't bode too well for the poor dude.

          It's an opinion from just a meager anon, but if I were him I'd rewrite it again, scrapping the storyboards and all. It's not worth putting in further effort into a script like this.

      everything about this is so uninspired and boring. i don't even think mark's content is that bad, especially compared to other internet ""critics"", hell, i do genuinely enjoy some of his videos, but you can tell this project is a secondary interest to him and was made with "i can do it better" intent like the majority of critics instead of having an actual passion for an idea.
      i'll give him this, visually whilst it's fricking boring it at least looks better than every other critic pilot/pitch that has been released so far.
      it's probably going to be completely forgotten in a week, it's just so fricking uninteresting. even the character designs are boring as all hell with shitty colour palettes that lack any real contrast.

If you want to creatively grow fast, read books, watch lots of films and standup, and go out and observe the world. This script is so fricking sheltered.

          The funny thing is you don't need all that much to do much of anything now, but in peoples heads doing a tv show is somehow more legit then doing a web cartoon, like wait a minute no one watches tv anymore yet people make that their aim, its very confusing to me.

          You've fallen into the trap, anon. You think you know what's best and what's right, but you only have the fundamental values instilled in you during your formative years to dictate what that all means, and that's ultimately subjective. Every generation grows up like this, earning the ire of their predecessors and in turn, revolting and establishing what they think is right, only to see the generation ahead of them do the same to them, drawing that very same irk. Yet, even as most people eventually make this revelation, they choose to commit to their stance. Perhaps they're afraid to lose their identity embracing changes that they once thought utterly incomprehensible, or maybe just violently oppose changes that break or make worse what they once thought worked fine as is. It's an especially hard hole for late gen x and millennials to hop out of, because actual production quality for many shows, games, movies and the like, was pretty high during this time. But let's be real, you didn't truly appreciate it for that as a child. You didn't. You were a dumbass fricking child and you liked the funny cartoon. The reality is you were happier when you didn't have anything to compare your experiences to. You enjoyed them 100% for what they were, but as you get older you have more experiences, and you eventually just keep comparing and comparing, leveraging and judging them based on what you know, feel and expect.

          And you chose to reject it. That's fine. Standards I guess, or some would call it taste and aggressively defend their stance as fact and call me a fricking homosexual, because otherwise I guess they'd have to question themselves. Those people might as well pull the trigger though, because locking yourself in that box will only make life progressively worse for you. You can't expect people who effectively grew up in a different world to give you what your inner child desires. Only those willing to adapt and compromise will live free.

      creating something and criticizing something are two different skills. you can criticize things without being able to make them yourself. because creating things (in this example a cartoon) requires more than just writing knowledge, it needs planning skills, art skills, animation skills, character design skills, etc. there's a lot that goes into it that people don't account for. it's kind of like being a food critic but not knowing how to make gourmet. you know what makes food gourmet, but making it yourself? two different things.

She's talked about being an alcoholic and it affecting her, so i assume that had a lot to probably do with chris dumping her. I remember her posting a very cryptic instagram story a while back (around the time she and chris got back together a second time and then were distant again 2 or 3 months later) where she just smokes a cig and says in a mocking voice "You're being difficult veronica, you're being difficult" and then taking a hit after. She's clearly the one who got kicked and has coped ever since. Give it time, both her and maybe LS Mark will get some kind of thread on kiwifarms or lolcow

                Lsmark used to be a commentary youtuber
                That was however until he made a moronic hitpiece on Quinton reviews on his political takes that got people including his fans angry at lsmark for said video
                So lsmark later issue an apology to Quinton and removed the video and months later collaborated on a video together
                That controversy was also the last straw for lsmark commentary career as he stepped making videos of that genre and instead focus more on cartoon video games and film reviews

                Honestly, from what I have seen, heterosexual men and women usually find it easier to write lesbians as opposed to gay men or bisexual men. A lot of times when straight men try to write gay or bi men, it's a travesty like that shitty game Dream Daddy.
                This probably explains why gay authors like Bret Easton Ellis tend to write gay characters the best

                Idk, i get asking gay people for advice writing gay characters but at what point will i need them to just handle everything involving that character in specific? I'm not against the idea of adding diverse characters but the problem is I have a VERY specific perspective on sexuality, let alone the intricacies of a gay man's mind, or anyone who isn't a straight white male

                As a bi guy, I genuinely think it's hard for a show, specifically when it's aimed for children to really get into the intricacies of adult characters who happen to be Gay, Bi, etc. Especially when talking about relationships. Most of these relationships from my personal experience start sexual then proceed to become romantic as opposed to the other way around half the time which is the polar opposite of straight relationships. And of course since you can't really cover sex in a kids show then those characters can tend to feel not as fleshed out and whatnot. I'd still recommend getting advice from those types of people then using your own experiences to write them out as well, balancing both perspectives for what you are aiming for in your story

                I think at the end of the day most people forget that gay people aren't some monolith. There's many different gay individuals who won't act or look the same just because they are gay. One gay guy could be really flamboyant and sexual, another could be a gym bro whose shy. Gay people.... are people. A gay person having a crush isn't usually too different from a straight person having a crush. It's just different genders. I think wanting some perspective isn't a bad idea, but also remember that your characters are people first, then their identities.

          This is the main reason why the art made by most cartoon fans these days look so soulless and often blend in with each other. Instead of taking inspiration from multiple different styles and mediums they will just copy the style of one or two cartoons and call it a day. Mark says that his art takes influence from UPA yet only looks at Butch Hartman cartoons and poorly copies it instead of studying the vast amount of UPA shorts and UPA inspired cartoons to find what aspects of those things appeal to him and use those techniques to build toward his own unique style.

            Honestly kind of shocking how well he recovered from that, at the time I legitimately thought he was done. Certainly didn't expect him to still get sponsors and pull in millions of views with 5 or so videos a year.

              It's not shocking at all. He conveyed controversial information poorly on a livestream, corrected himself on the details, and moved on. The internet forgives and forgets pretty easily as long as you're not an autist constantly starting serious drama or as long as you didn't hurt/solicit a child or animal.

On that thread it is mentioned by someone who knew Emily before she went full 1488, that she had a habit of flirting with a lot of the guys and kept trying to frick the guys from NG at PicoDay.
                Makes sense when watching the MagFest 2016 panel. In the panel Emily wraps her arms around a drunken Mick and begins kissing him. Then in of his drunken rages, he tells her, “Emily I don’t wanna frick you!” And then Chris hilarious yells, “Hey!” Trying to get Mick to come down
                Also in her teenage online diaries Emily goes on and on about wanting to get fricked by multiple guys and with a hard rock wiener. Makes sense too, when you keep in mind her sexual abuse

            i wouldn't say she left oney, moreso he dumped her and she rebounded through his friends to cause drama and then settled for a guy who looks like her ex, but younger. She's talked about being an alcoholic and it affecting her, so i assume that had a lot to probably do with chris dumping her. I remember her posting a very cryptic instagram story a while back (around the time she and chris got back together a second time and then were distant again 2 or 3 months later) where she just smokes a cig and says in a mocking voice "You're being difficult veronica, you're being difficult" and then taking a hit after. She's clearly the one who got kicked and has coped ever since. Give it time, both her and maybe LS Mark will get some kind of thread on kiwifarms or lolcow

          Because it's very simple to do, I seriously think just about anyone could do it with enough time to spare. It's so simplistic that you can use MSpaint's line, curve line and circle tool for it. You don't need to know line weight because it's just "thin on the inside thick on the outside" with the same consistency, you don't need to know posing because you can just draw a character with that dumb "arms down, hand sticking out" pose and it'll be fine, and you don't need to give any volume or depth to your characters because everyone intentionally looks completely flat. It's the ultimate entry level art style for cartoon artists but I wish they'd choose something that actually looked cool like what you said, Craig or Genndy or something.

          Because it’s simply easy as frick to draw in Hartman’s style, it’s what makes it so bland. Look at the example I posted from Jaime Hewlett

          it’s angular, stylized, but not totally flat. This is because you can see wraparounds, form,
          and a good understanding of anatomy, Hewlett simply takes this anatomy and design and exaggerates it. You can see the angular helmet actually wrap around Noodle’s head and her mouth isn’t a simple straight line design, if you look closely you can see it also wraps around her face.
          Tl;dr: the UPA/Y2K style is not as simple as it looks and it can actually be a b***h to get right and to make it look appealing, or you can just the low ugly effort shit Hartman does

          Maybe they're copying Butch Hartman a bit too much.

      Learn to draw and write you fricking talentless hacks. The only time when piss-poor designs are acceptable is when you give them stick figure fight tier animation and I sure as frick never ever see any fighting sequences with these Felix the Cat and UPA tier designs.

      Japan is dancing on your heads and taking over animation. SHAME, AMERICA, SMAMEEEFURRR DISPRAY.

      then why not use their childish mentality to write fantasy stories instead? seems lile everything must be relatable or down to earth to get to people meanwhile people rather go for anime or japanese videogames to disconnect from reality for a while, this is why isekais are a popular genre

      >No wonder Japan is beating our ass at animation, they actually treat the medium as a form of art.

            Cartoons are a product and are made to be viewed by viewers, the end-user. This stupid mentality of "you need to be a chef to complain about food" is exactly why the american (particularly californian) animation scene produces so much constant shit while getting defensive when anyone tries to critique it. This is why most shows die out after two ever-shortened "seasons".

                I prioritize animation as art rather than just a cheap way for comedians to create a show without having to hire actors and make sets. I am just pointing out how America treats animation like crap and just a cheaper medium than live action. Aqua teen might be the funniest show ever, it doesn't matter in this context, because it's not art, never intended to be either, which is my biggest problem with western animation. Japan also has crappy flash comedies but it doesn't limit the medium just to that.

                you can say the same thing about these artsy shows just as a way to show of their work while having zero substance as actual shows and therefore are bad AS shows instead of art films. you're hard on athf for no reason, i used it as an example of an animated show with good writing but theres literally venture bros right there with good writing AND good animation, something anime just cannot fully accomplish in my eyes. and i assume others feel the same because we don't have this strange xenophilia towards japan despite their balls in your face obvious flaws with their writing

                whatever man, it's useless to discuss with a westerner about animation, apparently if you don't spill the plot word for word and show instead of telling means your show has zero substance and it's just ''good animation''. No wonder why manga and anime are annihilating the western animation and comic industry.

                doesn't matter, it's respected as a medium unlike western animation.

                but anime is good AND popular.

                Not that anon but, animation in general isn’t “respected”. Motherfrickers still believe anything animated is “for kids”.

                nah, anime made people respect animation in the 80's with Akira. Again, even my parents like anime and animation is only starting to grow out of its ''for children'' status thanks to anime.

                unlike in america Japan doesn't have a monopoly, anime is made by different studios not just your overlord Disney

                well, I just said "give me a drama" and you just said "frick no", I didn't say anything specific like "give me one where it ends with two lesbian protagonists falling in love"

                >also none of those has great animation minus the first seasons of The Simpsons
                Really? Personally I love Venture Bros.' art style, and Morel is no Kubo but it still has some impressive stop-motion animation for a TV production despite the simple puppets/sets

                the point is, none of those are near the quality of Primal. I wouldn't call orel animation great, it's just very well directed.

                same. the character designs are great and the style pays homage very well to the old cartoons its inspiration comes from

                I don't disagree with you there, but the funny thing is I only ever see normies making fun of it or parodying it. People who are passionate about the era made and still make some high quality stuff. Most of the best stuff made in the 00s for example were all homages of things from the 80s.

    How would 2010s nostalgia look like in the 2030s and 2040s

      minecraft? honestly, as a zoomer i don't remember anything from the 2010's, or at least anything that I partake in, it was the era where everything fun died. I don't know why Mark wants to make a show about 00's nostalgia bait, I am a year older than him and I can't remember shit from that time

      I suppose something like how people look at old Zelda CDI/AOSTH/Hotel Mario/etc youtube poops nowadays, but with tiktok trends
      >haha remember when we tore shit out of the school walls for our #deviouslicks? now those were the days, much better than all the deranged shit people do online now

      Minecraft and Adventure Time are the first things that come to mind. Other cartoons like MLP:FiM, Regular Show, Gumball, maybe even SU despite the criticism of it. Angry Birds, TF2 before it got bad, Dark Souls, Skyirm, could list more but I got to run.
      I think 2010s nostalgia is gonna be more centered around the early half because the second half was nothing but politics and cheap profitable addiction apps.

      Minecraft, Popular let's players/ youtubers at the time, FNAF, M* l*ttle p*ny G4, 2010s memes, angry birds and bad piggies, regular show, adventure time, tumblr aesthetics, no LGBT or race shit being forced into everything, club penguin and other mmos nearing death, cringe culture, anything else?
      It's not even quite 2010s nostalgia time yet, and I'm already nostalgic, I miss the early 2010s before 2016. Every decade is getting worse, and I'm dreading going into the 2030s.

    wtf is the point of having a show be set in the early 00s when it isn't even set in reality? Turning Red at the very least chose a real location and was inspired by actual trends from the time. Its depressing just how uncreative so many people in this industry really are......
