How do you even BEGIN to fix this??
>>151966292You can't. Because the boomer executives who rely on nostalgia and name brand value are right. Nostalgia and name brands are the only thing that sells to audiences these days.
You'll be lucky if the industry is there at all in the next couple years.
>>151966330New content can sell, it’s just not the guaranteed success that nostalgia bait is. And why take a risk when you could bet on a sure thing?
>>151966355Anons have been saying this in the ten years I've been on this boardIt ain't happening
>>151966405it help when the original content is not filled with hateful rainbows.
>>151966292>makes a thread about how people only do the same tired shit in the industry>the thread is with the exact same screenshot along with a superficial commentexistence is fucking nothing now
>>151966567AI wasn't here ten years ago
It's an audience problem. If people got sick of the same old, then we wouldn't be in this position. But look at the catalog, what are people talking about on here most of the time? the same old franchises. so it is what it is.
>>151966405>new content>kpoppick one
>>151966653And I doubt AI will be here in another 10 years by the way it's going
>>151966679I wish that were true
>>151966687Very much is true if you've been paying attention
>>151966292I think the fix is indie animation. People need to learn to take risks, and indie animations are the pinnacle of risky animation. Everything's so sanitized now and cartoons don't have a real draw; back in the day you had hyper violence and guns on cartoons like Powerpuff Girls and Dexter's Lab (child friendly hyper violence, but still).I think the fix is as simple as going back to the way cartoons used to be, and I think indie animation can get us there.
>>151966292Why are you asking /co/ like any anon here would actually know the answer to that?
Listen I don't want to take the chance on something new not landing.Better to go back to old reliable.
>>151966292>How do you even BEGIN to fix this??There is literally only one way.
>>151966405You don't know what K-Pop is, do you?
>>151966673What you’re referring to is a hook, which a good original could have.
>>151966405>>151966631 is right, DEI and LGBT stuff is seen as a warning of bad entertainment now.
>>151966292Craig McCracken and his bitch cunt of a wife Lauren Faust have never made a good show, Amen.
>>1519662921) just because it's original doesn't mean it's good2) people don't watch most original stuff . If the people who complain about there not being original stuff actually watched the original stuff that does come out there would be more original stuff
>>151966292this was three years ago and there’s been no update on these shows. so it seems like no one was really interested in his rebooted ips either.
>>151966936I think this was also around the same time the live action powerpuff girls got canned and the merger happened
>>151966405Nostalgia bait bombs all the time. Look at the new Spongebob movie for the latest example.
>>151966405sony thought that movie was going to bomb so they sold it to netflix for half it's budget
>>151966984And now its getting a sequel.
>>151966994His point is that there was no way to know it was going to do gangbusters on streaming. It was a fluke. And because of that, it will take 3 years before the sequel is released, possibly missing out on momentum
>>151967079Well, that's the thing with new IP's. It happens all the time. Original Star Wars hardly had any merchandise at the beginning. The same with Frozen.
>>151966974SpongeBob fucked itself as a movie franchise by releasing 3 straight to streaming flicks that ranged from ok to dogshit.
>>151967079Streaming is actually a good way to bounce a movie that didn't good back As people said like three yeas ago, Encanto would have bombed at the box office but it did well on streamingStreaming has become the new "Home video cult classic"
>>151966292>execs want what's safe>for all the complaining mainstream makes they also only want what's safeYou can't fix it.
>>151966631This. So many new properties being pitched these days are full of gay/tranny/political trash writing and art+animation that makes it almost indistinguishable from Steven Universe or Rick & Morty. Like no shit new IPs aren't selling.
>>151966817It always should have been. That demographic of people were empowered by the mass culling of Zoomer white males who were essentially not allowed to add their sensibilities to the field. We are deprived of a generation of media that grew up on the content of the 2000s and that's kind of a fascinating cultural hole. A tragic one as well. Gen Xers and Boomers just refuse to pass on the reigns to men of the following generation. They feel safer giving it to women and minorities through affirmative action. Ironically those people they'll never view as a challenge or respect.
>>151966657>why can't they just eat the slop
>>151966974>>151967130Yeah Spongebob used to have TV specials like that rancid Atlantis one but now they're able to just get 1000 seamonkeys to generate a fully 3D spongebob movie and have them ready to go at a moment's noticegiven that level of effort-to-product ratio, I bet in a few years SpongeAI will refer to Nick's fully-genned endless Spongeslop as opposed to the user-prompted AI Sponge we have now
>>151967138>Streaming is actually a good way to bounce a movie that didn't good backNo? You can't profit off of streaming.
People cheering when they announced the return of a bunch of 2010's cartoon network shows when it's them giving up after so many years of irrelevancy
>>151966763the latinx era is so close...
>>151966708Why did they make originals shows like PPG and Dexter instead of just like more Looney Tunes or Scooby doo? That's what they'd do now desu
>>151966292Why doesn't he Obey SUPERMAN way and do what Siegel and Shuster already did and have renewal PowerPuff contain elements to his Other stuff that wasn't released Yet or At allSame way how a Dr. Occult fucking all of a sudden becomes The Superman 1934 (pre-Clark Kent 1934 but With hints on 1935 costume + John Carter inspiration) in More Fun Comics #14-17 like adventure and then goes back to "detective but against paranormal stuff" in a more normal trenchcoat and suit and hat.Or how Siegel with help of Swan in the 60's hinted at K-Metal from planet Krypton canon in Superman #170 and in Another comics named silver age Jor-El a Jor-El II son of Jor-El I
>>151967861>Why did they make originals shows like PPG and Dexter instead of just like more Looney Tunes or Scooby doo?Because they grew up on the latter, then looked back on it when they were adults and said "Wait, this shit actually sucks, I remember this being a lot better. Let's make the kind of cartoons we thought we watched when we were younger". That's what gave us the stuff we got in the 90s.This generation doesn't have that kind of talent, drive, or inspiration, which is why everything is so stagnant nowadays.
Stop letting kids use YouTube
>>151966653It was, but it was Cleverbot and Mitsuku and shit. Stuff that was actually fun
