So will this still have a chance in being good?
>state funded disney trashmy body is read
>the simpsons is taxpayer fundedwhy
>>153366458Doubtful, especially if Marge has a notable role because boy she sounds rough now unfortunately
>>153366458>Most financially successful show ever>Here's 22 million in government money>Fuck you poor people and the sick
Not in a million years.>Homer just sounds like Abe>Marge sounds like she got stabbed in the throat>Bart and Lisa sound weird>Not a single recent episode has been anything but degrading>Disney in charge so it's gonna be safe and risk-free of anything
I fucking wish they would use 22 million on the animation budget, but they're going to use that shit on the guest celebrities and marketing instead.
>>153366458It's good they can fund artistically worthwhile projects from small indie studios that don't have the money needed and aren't looking for a profit but have something new and important to show the world.
>>153366726STATE funded.So... California. Y'know, that state going through a homeless crisis currently.
>>153366458so are they releasing for free since it's publically funded?
>>153366745>I fucking wish they would use 22 million on the animation budget, but they're going to use that shit on the guest celebrities and marketing instead.Yep 5 million is going directly to the P Diddy cameo
>>153366458The only way this would be even kinda interesting is if they made the cast be aged up for the entire film. Like unironically Lisa and Bart have been written closer to highschoolers that I don't see why not.
>>153366458Not even remotely
>>153367088>I don't see why not.Boomer era show. They aren't ready to see themselves depicted as being old. King of the Hill is the same way
>>153366458>Federal government constantly tells us we can't forgive student loans, or fund single-payer healthcare, or repair our infrastructure because it's too expensive, but will throw away a billion dollars a year on a war no one asked for.>State governments constantly tell us we can't fund more single-family homes, or provide shelters for the homeless, or furnish schools with textbooks written in this century because it's too expensive, but will throw away millions on a Simpson's movie no one asked for.It's all so tiresome.
>>153366458Not a chance.
>>153366458Half the cast sound like they are in their 90s and in the throws of death. There is not much of a chance it can be any good.
>>153366458>After years there is government subsidy of the arts again>They decide to help fund animated projects>They hand money over to the world's biggest megacorporation that never once needed shit to begin with to fund a movie of the most profitable animated series that ever existed>All they accomplished is paying Julie Cavner's monthly paycheckThis is why people are starting to really listen to communists guys. They're not always trying to be edgy retards, sometimes they just get really fucking mad at the world.
>>153367088I'm amazed that has not happened already.
>>153366458>This shit never ever diesIt's fucking baffling to me how nobody likes this show, nobody watches this show, even the die-hard fans agree it has been fucking terrible for literal decades now yet it refuses to die. It cannot even fail on it's own either. We now have to divert tax money to artificially keeping it alive even longer. Money is being forcibly taken from people who hate this shit, so it can fund even more of it to continue existing.It's like only god appreciates Simpsons while the rest of the world wants it gone in the worst way possible. Is God actually a Scientologist? What is doing this?
>>153366458>So will this still have a chance in being good?No
>>153366458The only chance of this being good is if it came out before the first one where they killed Julie Kavner's throat with multiple takes
>>153366979Yeah, that's still money from around the country. Fuck Commiefornia and fuck the feds.
>>153366458Thing is, the show still gets 22 episodes a year, every single year, and for the last 20 years there has not been a single watchable episode. It's all fucking terrible. In a minimum of 440 episodes, they could not even accidentally make something remotely watchable or stumble upon a funny gag by sheer chance. you would think after that many episodes, that there could be at least one by random chance that turns out okay. But it hasn't happened. Why would I expect the same writers, actors, and producers to be any different here?
>>153367199Did you not watch the revival?
>>153366634doesn't that mean we have a say in how it's written?>>153367237anon you have no fucking idea what side you're on. I want you to look into who's behind each of those things.>>153367380come on anon, you're SO close to making the connection about who's behind all this.>>153367403that's everything now. It used to be about making money, now it's about making misery. and who's benefiting from that misery?
>>153366458Only if Lisa's fat butt finally farts.
>>153367557In this specific case it would be the Church of Scientology. Simpsons has been near single-handedly funding them for the last 15 or so years.
>>153366458They’re definitiely going to do a self-deprecating joke where Homer’s getting hurt for a minute straight with the caption “YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK”.Screencap this.
>>153366458They should give that 20 million split up between every internet animator on the planet to each make 5 seconds of the movie in flash
Out of curiosity how long would this show need to run before everyone who originally worked on it is dead and.it is a complete ship of Theseus? 2035?2050? 2070?
>>153366726It's possible it's tied to the state receiving part of the profit. Not saying it's so, just possible.
>>153367747That would be a funny way of making it, yes.
>>153366458>$22 million in taxpayer money How will they convince themselves this is Trump's fault?
>22 million dollars worth of taxes going into a cartoon>Not even a good cartoon at thatWhat the fuck is wrong with this government?
>>153366458If this movie still comes out looking like the first one with its weird fluid yet stilted animation that will be this film's only legacy. That the state funneled 22 million into it and it still looked like ass. Then you'll see hundreds of "it's just the simpsons, what did you expect, don bluth?" arguments just like how all conversations are now.
>>153366979What state isn't?
>>153366458You see the American State funding it and you think it’s a sign it might be good? Was Dustborn good?
>>153367480It'd be interesting to see /co/ marathon zombie simpsons seasons just to see if ANYTHING at all sticks. I doubt any of it will, and what little will phase people will be ironic, but it's about as close to a modern day twitch pokemon deal as we could get.
>>153366458This image is dystopian.>Simpsons Movie 2>state funding 22 million dollars into the simpsons 2>"this article is a 2 minute read, click here to summarize it with AI"
>>153367403Simpsons is an institution at this point and thing is, no one wants to be known as the guy who kills an institution. Same reason SNL hasn't been cancelled.Once you reach institution status, you create an income stream that rivals a small nation and employ a small army of people who depend on your paying their wages.
>>153367237This is state funds you dumb faggot. I swear you retards need to learn fucking civics
>>153367380>Anon is mad about the government misallocating funds to fuel animation thay honestly doesn't need it>>This is why people are starting to really listen to communists guys.Are you retarded?
So neither Disney nor 20th Century Studios can fund their own shit?
>>153366458In this hellscape socialism exists, but only if it goes to multinational corporations to profit
>>153369632Finally, the worst of both worlds!
>>153369632People have been saying this for decades, it's just that nobody listened and now we're reaching the boiling point.
>>153366458>state funded animationOnly in Commiefornia.
>>153366458Voice actors are too fucking old. It amazes me how just giving Maggy a voice for one episode brought back so much life for a moment.https://youtu.be/wB6QQNgNrxc?si=gRD6kMHtAhXR8jvM
>>153367540Hank is what, 46 in the revival? the real Hank (who was in his 30's in 1996) would be pushing 70 by now.
>>153366458>People on Twitter are mad at this beacuse California's Goverment prefer to give money to Disney instead to some indie animation studiosI thought the "indie animation is the future" was a meme but they are people who think like this...https://x.com/Variety/status/2047329736133644557/quotes
>>153367380>Hurr Durrr I turned against my entire civilization and want everything destroyed because I kinda don't like a funny cartoon any more!Are you completely fucking retarded? YOU'RE whats wrong with this country you absolute shitstain fucking faggot. Kill yourself.
>>153371346>Hurr Durrr I turned against my entire civilization and want everything destroyed because I kinda don't like a funny cartoon any more!Yes
>>153369821He was 41 in the old show and this one takes place 7 years later. But he is portrayed as pushing 60 at least.
>>153371346NTA, but what's the problem? Tax dollars shouldn't be used to keep zombie cartoons alive.
>>153371004>We want studios to fund more animation>California goverment: All right let's give money to Disney and Dreamworks>NOOOOO not like that
>>153367480>or stumble upon a funny gag by sheer chance.this does happen from time to time. the show is just so far removed from it's relevant milieu that the background cringe overwhelms it. if the writers time traveled to 2002 and the voice actors deaged they could probably make a zombies simpsons episode that was watchable.
>>153366458This movie will be highly satanic because the show is full of atheists, buddhists and homersexuals
>>153372807>homersexualskek
>>153366458>state funds animationJust end it already. You will never beat One Piece.
>>153366458Not a hope in hell
>>153366458>Roads? Schools? The Poor? The minorities? War? Public Transport? Bah, we don't need to spend tax payer's hard earned and given money on that>SPEND THAT SHIT ON A MID, ZOMBIE-TIER SIMPSONS MOVIE BECAUSE UNCLE SAM AND UNCLE DONNY SAID SO!!!I'm joking about Trump, but frankly, I would NOT be surprised if behind the scenes it was Trump that giggled when he signed some order to give the movie Government money.
>>153367380Communism is the ideology of desperation, So you're not wrong.
>>153367747If each animator animates five seconds, you would need 12 animators for a single minute of animation and 1080 animators for 90 minutes. Assuming you don't pay anybody else, each animator would get paid $18,515.52 for their shot.
>>153367403>What is doing this?Fox executives too stupid to give a shit.
>>153367716Done, get it while it's fresh.
>>153373257It's funds from the State of California.Whenever money comes from the US government it is referred to as Federal.
>>153371346But actual money that could have gone to anything else more useful, or at least creatively unique, is being used for The Simpsons Movie 2.So fuck you, maybe a red tide is needed, at least to deal with the assholes lobbying for this crap.
>>153373512Potatoe Potato, it's still the same point; a fucking massive waste.
>>153366634so they can keep exporting jobs to india while stealing all your money so they can cover their asses when they fuck up.
>>153373849>What, OUR FAULT? NAHHH IT'S THOSE SMELLY POO PEOPLE!>The Executive just awkwardly sidles away as a dozen "poo in the loo" memes go up.
>>153366458https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWEnqC1uPu0
>>153366634why?because it's an American Great.
>>153374174Why would it be the fault of american workers that CEO Arthya Vras is exporting jobs to his native hyderabad? At a certain point you have to break out of the brainwashing and realize that entertainment media is being ruined by thirdies fucking americans out of the cartooning jobs. Resources are limited and it's a zero sum game.
>>153366458This is just flat out scummy.
