Why did it die?
>>153267954Too highbrow for today's kids. Why watch this when they can watch Tung Tung tung Sahur?
Everything eventually dies given enough time. Except me. I'm immortal because I can't come to grips with my own mortality.
>>153267985Are you a boomer by chance?
>>153267954Creator lost the rights like a dumbass
>>153268034He lost the rights to G-Mod models?
>>153267954Ironically, before he stupidly signed the rights away, Skibidi was probably one of the best forms of indie animation out there. Dude was animating it by himself for the longest time.
>>153267954Michael Bay
>>153267954>Your face when TADC is getting a cinematic release and you're already forgotten
>>153268828Skibidi fans on suicide watch
Skibidi Biden buried it, it couldn't recover from the cringe.Never let boomers touch your babies.
>>153267954The creator was a retard that signed a terrible contract without having a lawyer give it a once over
>>153268154I would argue it was actually the worst, a dumb concept lazily spinning its wheels for a ADHD audience then offering a crumb every now and again for the deep lore fags so they can gush about how this SFM asset flip is actually deep somehow.
>>153267954Sold out to a corpo, corpo had no idea what to do with it and let it die.Many such cases.
>>153267954>>153268034>>153269351>>153269443Lesson is, never sell your idea/IP unless you have no love/don't really care for it
>>153267954Creator signed contracts he shouldn't have without reading the fine print. That's the whole story.
>>153267954Greed
>>153267954Inviz stole itSkibdi is now deadHuman Being is the new series to hyperfixate on
>>153267954it didn't, it still has a loyal fanbase in japan for some reason
how can you legally sell something which used assets that never belonged to you?
>>153270031Im shocked valve never sued
>>153269382It was never about le deep lore, people liked the animation and fights.>>153270084They didn't because they can't do shit. Dafuq owned the idea, not the assets.
>>153269996>one shelf of merch on the bargain bin rack is considered evidence for "a loyal fanbase"lollmao
>>153267954kids moved onto 67fads don't last.
>>153270183The animation was mid for your average SFM animator he just cranked it out fast
>>153270353It was solid, specially for the later episodes, it got bad when the new corpo got their hands on it.
>>153270226You're right anon, next time he better post every single instance in the world
>>153270466It was mid, his stuff was never good with weight and the action was extremely basic. Top that off with all the models being lazily kitbashed shit and it was mid all around.
>>153270866his previous animations weren't focused on fights, he liked doing random shit like most sfm/gmod videos, he keep improving doing the skibidi toilet stuff. He actually good later on.>Top that off with all the models being lazily kitbashed shit and it was mid all around.I don't see the problem, models are there for people to use them.
>>153270942He was never notable among SFM animators on any aspect, he just struck it lucky with the algorithm jackpot. All he ever had was consistency. Also kitbashing is fine if all you're doing is a one-off shitpost, doing 80+ episodes of some shit with toilets and guys with TV heads comes across as lazy.
wait, so let me get this straight>Sold the movie rights>Movie rights prevent him from making new content >Because there's no new content, interest dies>Corp left holding the rights to a dead property and even if they release a movie, it's going to bomb because nobody cares about Skibidi Toilet anymoredid I get this right?
>>153271124Not exactly, he signed a retarded contract that said they would fund a movie for him but only if he was able to reach an insane release schedule and if he wasn't able to keep up his end then they would own the IP wholesale. Also I think he signed away his merch rights as well.
>>153271211>if he wasn't able to keep up his end then they would own the IP wholesale. Holy handrubbery, batman.
>>153271124Investors and Venture Capital types are notoriously retarded. Yes.
>>153271228Honestly it's his own fault for not having someone with legal experience at least give it a once-over and at that point he almost certainly had enough money to pay a lawyer to do it. The only way you can get fucked that hard is if you flat out don't read what you're signing.
>>153271043I often catch a glimpse at some half-life and workshop models and I just got along with it because it doesn't really ruin the experience in any shape or form. The only way this would be a problem is if you have some kind of autism but I get it, it's a zoomer series so it's must be automatically bad.
>>153267954I remember a Mexican comedy show from the early 2000s that had a Skibidi-like head coming out of a toilet. I think the show was called "El Baño"
>>153271286Like I said, it's just indicates overall laziness. I don't think anyone would care if he stuck to one-off shitposts but the moment he tried to make a series out of it you can't help but notice. Also saw a lot of zoomers saying the designs looked cool when they were all just generic suit models or toilets with a bunch of shit stapled on.
>>153269443I was reading about this recently and another thing the company that bought it out did was smother the fan community.
>>153271408Even modeling these takes some time, which could be better spent on animation. Modeling from scratch would delay the episodes way further and it doesn't really matter THAT much, as long as it server it's purpose.Some designs are cool, simple or generic isn't bad per se.
>>153268034Lost the rights to using Half-Life 2 models for his own financial gain?
>>153271749So it's just quantity in the service of quantity which is why it's so mid.
>>153271724Skibidi! Gerasimov! Where are the toilets?!
>>153274267fucking lol
>>153267954You can only take a batshit insane arms race so far until you run out of ideas I guess.Was it actually any good?
>>153274643>spoilerfor what it is, yes. the action and sound design is unironically decent, even if the latter was ripped from other media it still sounds good and was used to good effect. it gets shit for using gmod models, but the character designs starting around the series' midpoint and going forward are genuinely pretty cool and creative. story and lore is of course paper-thin but that was never the focus.maybe take what I say with a grain of salt though, I watched the whole thing in a single go one day when I was extremely sleep deprived so idk how accurately I'm recalling it.inb4 t. brainrotted zoomer/alpha
>>153271211yep, he signed away the movie+merch rights and i think someone said he blew the money already.
>>153267954Too derivative for classic SFM/Gmod enjoyersToo engaging for brainrot zoomers
>>153270661He could post you know, a fan get together, or at the very least more than one singular shelf of merch. At least an entire store-shelf's worth would give more credibility.
>>153271211>Hey bro. We're willing to help make a movie off your very successful IP. But if you can't meet our insane demands, we're just taking ownership and never doing anything with it ever againMichael Bay and his production company are such scummy little fucks, lmao.
>>153271282even if dafuq was a dumbass, i wish there weren't greedy fucks writing those kinds of contracts out to ruin things
>>153267954probably because of that retarded italian brainrot shit
>>153268828>>153268852Oh yeah, there was that one faggot who kept trying to hype Skibidi and shit on TADC want there?You suppose he slit in throat in despair yet? I hope so.
>>153274857Did the original youtube channel get taken down then?Couldn't he have just been happy with the youtube money he was getting?
