Anyone else hate fourth wall breaks? They’re rarely funny, ruin immersion, and make it seem as if the characters are basically just actors in a play.
>>150713153You must hate the works of Tex Avery then.
>>150713153It depends on what you're putting them in. If it's something that's already just collection of gags, it's fine as long as it's funny. But something trying to do a cohesive story shouldn't pull that, especially if they wait until they're really far into said story to start doing so.
>>150713153>are basically just actors in a playHow is being in two layers of fiction any worse than one layer
>>150713845yup
>>150715149That's not answering the question.
>>150713153>ruin immersionHow would you know that if you haven't done that to a woman?
it is being done more often than would be tasteful and it's alot better when it IS done that it isn't extremely obvious.
>>150715217KEK I made that edit
>>150713153Only if it's overdone, like Gumball.
>>150713236Idk Rick & Morty made it work, the people offended by its fourth-wall breaks just take the show too seriously 24/7 when it's always struck a balance of drama and comedy
>>150713153it was a novel idea at the time and then it was run to the ground and stopped being funny
>>150713153I only hate them when they address the audience. It's okay if it's meta and the characters don't fully see it. Deadpool type shit bothers the fuck out of me.
>>150715303It’s permissible to do that in a show like Gumball since it isn’t a serious cartoon to begin with.
Foie Gras is best character from Chowder
>>150713153>make it seem as if the characters are basically just actors in a playBut that's what they are. Just puppets dancing on strings. Slaves, created to entertain.
>>150717690We’re not supposed to take that into consideration, we’re supposed to be invested in their world.
>>150713153How often does Chowder use it in the show?
>>150713153>you're not in this episode >poofs out of existence You gotta admit anon, it was pretty funny
>>150715197I think that anon is agreeing with you.
>>150718506Why get attached to puppets that only exist to suffer?
I know Gene Wilder was apprehensive about them
>>150718506Anon, did the occasional 4th wall jokes at a chuck e cheese fuck you up into being a sourpuss about this shit?https://youtu.be/tij9hJHzK-A?si=xiA3yDCx7rILlxGW
This is what the death of Religion looks like: People stripped off of their holy books trying to find meaning in cheap entertainment.Unironically go to church so you can stop taking the moving pictures too seriously.
>>150719610 Yeah It is.
>>150713153I do too
>>150713153Filtered
>>150713845Feels fake
>>150723185It IS fake.
>>150713153Dude, I fucking miss Chowder.
>>150713153They're fine in very small doses. Never a fan of series relying on it so much that there's a loss of sincerity in the writing and characters are reduced to being a mouthpiece on the quality of the show.
>>150720290Kys faggot
>>150713153Why is Chowder so FAT?
>>150723202no shit. its not supposed to feel like it though
>>150723899He eats, anon. It's what he do.
>>150715303I mean Tex Avery broke the fourth wall in almost every one of his shorts, and it never feels overdone. Forth
