Animation will be gone, no more Cartoon Network, no more Rick and Morty, no nothing
Hopefully it completely collapses and those who drove it to this dire state get what they deserve
more anime and canada
Whose the girl?
Corporations give up on animation outside of movies, whatever remains goes indie.
That’s my hope, at least.
I find this blind faith in indies quite amusing.
Especially since indie animations are fricking shit now
It’s like people completely forgot that indie means independent, as in not tethered to a corporation. If someone goes indie, they don’t magically start to conform to the norms or quality of other independent animations.
nah frick indie animation, its all furgay shit.
The indie animation furgay shit happens to harbor more than a handful of actually attractive designs for one, so it's up my alley.
I hate to be bearer of bad news but you guys need to understand that absolutely no one has the money to go indie. Unless you have some presence on the internet those indie dream pilot ain't going anywhere. They take to much time to make and don't pay bills. The only dude who I know from art school got work after getting his BA moved to buttfrick Argentina for his job. It fricking sucks guys don't ever try to break into the industry.
I don't really gas one way or the other unless I manage to like something about a cartoon's design work.
Same way with vidya, which Cinemaphile really likes to doompost about too (honestly every media board does this in one way or another, even Cinemaphile) .
it helps if you see the lips as teeth
out with the old, in with the new. This strike is what this industry needed.
a lot of cartoons got canned in these years because excecutives just change and new ideas enter the channel
Take for example how Blue/paw patrol got super popular and now networks want thir own golden egg for preeschoolers
western animation has been shit for so long most people won't notice or care if anything happens.
True, though if somethings still has designs I like regardless, then what the frick.
This, I stopped caring about modern animation years ago.
Yeah most of what I consume is often more than a decade+ old movies and the stuff, for reasons I described above
This, we're reaching a point where the only new western (american) animations that can achieve any cultural relevance will be Disney/Pixar movies.
Not surprised, considering it's been that way for decades. I still like some of the art direction for some of their movies, fwiw
TAG is not going on strike next year. Who keeps pushing this moronic shit?
