> muh nihilism> le pop culture references> alien robot rape gore jokes s2 was the best for me. I haven't watched since s4 which i thought was terrible at the time until now but s5 and 6 were worse. i fear this will happen with smiling friends too, and even more so due to how much of SF is based off of online culture, which as we all know is being enshittified. I really dont have any hope for this series seeing the direction it seems to be going in. also the cal artstyle sucks nigger cock. I swear each season looks more stale and ugly visually than the last. what happened to the funny absurdist jokes or ironic morally questionable depictions? i feel like they exhausted all those jokes in the first few episodes and especially the pilot.
>>152146006I'm not sure you're familiar with the fable.
>>152146031I am
>>152145618>>152145755>>152145988I want a very specific example of something from the pilot episode that is "reddit">Durr Rick said God isn't real to Summer!I'm not one, but I can accept that atheists exist and scientists tend to be atheists so it's consistent with Rick's characterization
>>152145379The justin's firing is the worst episode for reddit
>>152145960>I don't know why Rick is so upset, maybe he should just let it out>Oh my god this is the worst thing I've ever seen that's going to ruin me for life!That episode was fucking great and it only became reddit in S4 when they decided people with depression were le bad
Why are old comics so charming?
>>152145404It's probably the same today. The difference is the ones today aren't as talented and the rest have pure disdain for the genre and audience instead of taking the job seriously.
>>152143293Because they're corny and melodramatic.
>>152143293They could make up new guys at will and people loved it. If nobody liked the dude, they were gone or sent to the Avengers. Today they throw the same dirty piece of spaghetti against the wall over and over again and you get a book with seven relaunches They (Marvel at least) weren't held down by decades of continuity or the sliding timescale. Again, with Marvel there was actual change, not the illusion of change. reed and Sue got married, Spider-Man graduated from high school. Cap adjusted to life in the 60's-70's. Rick Jones went from a ham radio operator or some shit to a professional sidekick and so on.
>>152145816>They (Marvel at least) weren't held down by decades of continuity or the sliding timescale. Again, with Marvel there was actual change, not the illusion of change.It is interesting going back to the first decade or so of Marvel and seeing it was moving practically in real-time, that seemed to slow down by the time Stan was no longer directly working on the books and Jack Kirby had left.
>>152143293They're unapologetically hammy and the art was spectacular. When it's done parodically, it's not as charming. I really hate it when they try these days. It just comes out unfunny and phony. While my favorite comics came out in the 80s, they lacked a lot of this charm.
If you could turn any rejected pilot into a real show, which would you choose?
>>152145681
>>152145681Hm... While it would probably mean the 2003 TMNT would never have been made and that would be a shame because a lot of what I like about TMNT comes from that show and most of the Mirage Studios characters and stories would likely never make it into a "mainstream" adaptation without Laird having so much control over that show, the WB animated pitch did show a lot of promise. It would have taken a little too much tonal inspiration from the 90's movies and I doubt Laird would have had enough control to make sure the writers directly adapted comic book stories, but on the other hand it looked to be of much higher quality than any other TMNT cartoon that has been made so far and from the looks of it there wouldn't have been any bullshit copying of the 1987 cartoon because "Durr, that's what people remember, hurr". Hell, it might even have prevented the Paramount buyout and Nickelodeon's neverending cocksucking of the 1987 show.
>>152145705>>152145706No joke, the reason this didn't get picked up was because it's creator got fired from Nick after wanting to unionize cartoonists
>>152145681That life action Dilbert pilot with the creepy animatronic.

>>152136914I'd prefer they didn't rely on that as their main marketing angle for Hoppers...
>>152144721No way the movie ends with civilization destroyed. That would be awesome, though.
>>152140759Because the gap allows a smaller and smaller portion of society to control larger and larger portions of its laws, culture and wellbeing, and as is the case whenever a small group of people can control and hurt people for personal gain with little risk of punishment, they tend to do so.

>the hype for the new season died in a week>the movie was announced six years ago>not even the script is ready yet>the comics bombed >no merchandise>no video games>zero cultural impact other than porn animations What went wrong?
>>152146029So? Remember, quantity=/=quality
>>152146151The quality of a show has never been a point I've been trying to make. The quantity however is a point because Ben 10 lived and died as a toy commercial as it slid into an era where the western children's toy market entered into a near death state.Ben 10 did not stand the test of time because a significant component to its existence withered out. If there is confusion where it was thought that I was judging its quality as a show, then I need to say that was not my intention.
>>152145886Kinda? I mean, both Pokemon and Gumball are puddle-deep when it comes to core concepts and stories, so once new gen/new episode batch is quickly disseminated, there is little to do outside of whacking off to Gardevoir or lewding Teri.
>>152145886Who cares about the Pokemon show? It's all about the games and their meta pre-switch slop era.

So I saw my commission on a Sari related thread about a month ago, and was surprised it got out into the wild. I've been a Sari lover since TFA back in the day, and I got into Amphibia when it premiered and ended up vibing with Anne because she reminded me alot of my teenage self. So I wanna take this opportunity to ask: Do you guys think Sari Sumdac and Anne Boonchuy would get alongas buds?(I'll share some other pieces of them both I've gotten too)
>>152145512ABSOLUTELY Plus the fact they were both chosen by higher powers>Sari chosen by the Allspark, and inadvertently Primus>Anne chosen by almighty cat god

Why did popular comic strips die out? Even if newspapers are gone, they could have taken up a new life online. Sure they may still be around but gone are the days where we'd see one become a phenomenon like Peanuts, Calvin & Hobbs or Garfield
>>152142077webcomics suck actually?
>>152142678Haha! He's NAKED!
>>152142077
>>152144421The most popular online comics are strips though. And there's more of them. Of course newspapers are dead. But back when newspapers were popular there was only a handful of comics. Whatever. This is a black pill thread right?

>>152146458Didn't 80s comic books point out that characters age slower the more the story focuses on them?
>>152146484I'm just saying Harry and Liz didn't meet until their early 20's. So even if you wanna say Liz had Normie at 21 Liz, Harry, Flash, Pete, Jessica Jones and Cindy Moon. all have to be early 30's. You can de-age MJ and Felicia since neither when to school with Peter but unless something something goblin serum age up Normie, Peter and everyone else is early 30s at least.
