>cartoon network wasted millions and killed their own channel in an attempt to artificially push ugly bastard beast boy dolls I hope it was worth it, vishnu
>>153697891They had a fucking army of the discord mod beast boy plushies at ollies too. I guess no one really was watching all those endlessly spammed marathons of "your new favorite show" lmfao.
I don't understand why a Teen Titans spinoff is pushed so hard to kids. Do kids even know who they are?
>>153697904It's funny that Ollies is just the dumping ground for all the toys nobody bought. After Black Panther 2 my local store had mountains of toys for it that nobody was buying.
>>153697891>t. retard who doesn’t know how licenses work
>>153697958>I don't understand why a Teen Titans spinoff is pushed so hard to kids. Do kids even know who they are?I strongly suspect it was internal favoritism from within CN from christina miller that made the show get pushed so heavily. Im hoping that some industry alumni start spilling the beans about what was behind the seemingly illogical decisions cartoon network started making around 2015 and onward. I do have however several theories for the reasoning behind the TTG spam >1. Christina miller felt teen titans go reflected her idea of cartoon network being more of a channel aimed at younger kids and pushed it alongside other infantilized shows for her agenda of eventually making CN into a glorified tickle-u>2. Some exec at warner bros demanded they push TTG more on the channel. Because the TTG spam started around the time the hype for DCEU/snyderverse movies like batman v superman started and warner wanted to push DC more especially to small children so they can nag their parents to see batfleck brand criminals>3. They spammed TTG because they wanted people to use that shitty CN app instead, and people ended up still not using that fucking garbage app and changed the channel anyway hence why cartoon network studios was shuttered several years later>4. Because warner demanded they push TTG more since it was a warner animation project and that some warner exec had favoritism over the show rather then the CN exec at the time and wanted to push a warner animation show to the forefront on CN instead of cartoon network studios productions. Look at how thundercats roar (a warner animation production btw) was shilled as so heavily in the beginning before the vitriolic backlash took place.
>>153697970>It's funny that Ollies is just the dumping ground for all the toys nobody bought.Yeah, alot of the star wars sequel trilogy toys and figures ended up at ollies as well. I still see the last jedi crap rotting on pegs at my local ollies store lmfao>After Black Panther 2 my local store had mountains of toys for it that nobody was buying.Marvel shot themselves in the fucking foot by replacing chadwick bosemans black panther with a fucking woman as the new black panther. Thats cancer for merchandise as i know black boys dont want anything to do with the new character now because shes just some boring bitch instead of some cool guy they can emulate and look up to and think is cool.
>>153697991Ive never seen any of the spin master TTG toys at a regular store in my life. Walmart and target never carried this line yet they apparently made a shit ton of these obese beast boys toys along with shit like the twerking robin figure and STILL no one buys this shit even on deep clearance at liquidator stores like ollies despite how incessantly warner/cartoon network wants to forcefeed this schlock down peoples throats. Its unbelievable and shows how warner bros has been run by retards for ages now.
>>153697891>>153697904I don’t think that most parents would willingly buy this thing.
>>153698242I dont think most kids would even ask their parents for it or want it at all either. Doesnt help that beast boy is the most annoying teen titans member and they had to make him even more annoying and off putting by making him a green version of brendan fraiser's the whale
Not only is it ugly as sin, but the quality is shit. Printed fabric plushies are the worst.
>>153698299I agree but it is appropriate that the cartoon series which is the epitome of mass manufactured low quality schlock gets equally as low effort cheapo shitty toys as merch
>>153697958Teen titans go has been on the air for 13 years straight. Kids today have never known a world without them
>>153698047>Marvel shot themselves in the fucking foot by replacing chadwick bosemans black panther with a fucking woman as the new black panther.

At least 50% of nonwhites are pretty conservative and only vote progressively because progressively support their ability to get jobs and be treated fairly under the law. They are still conservative about gender, sex, religion, etc. Small brown children can police gendered behavior like no other. They will actually hit each other over an I year old getting a girl action figure or watching a girl cartoon. One day we're going to square up that a group that wants progressive social norms treats women and other nonwhite men like shit.
>>153697970lol my Ollie’s still has those.
>>153698609>At least 50% of nonwhites are pretty conservative and only vote progressively because progressives support their ability to not get jobs and be treated with welfare.Fixed
>>153698022TTG favoritism was loosely based off of a idea from Vishnu, who was some sorta of a exec from CN India, that was responsible for spamming Oggy and the Cockroaches on the channel, and decided to carry the idea over to CN US when Miller came on board, but wasn't finalized until a year after her first term. Before the TTG spam, Johnny Test was spammed almost significantly as the TTG spam but wasn't that bad.
>>153699758Why did that shitter fuck have such a hard on for TTG then? What did he hope to achieve by spamming it so much it made all the audience for cartoon network leave?
>>153699812Who knows. That's what I recall reading from somewhere and somehow it worked good enough for the spam to work. Unfortunately, not only did it killed numerous amount of other CN shows, but cause an irreparable damage to CN, even toddlershit shows ended up dying like the rest, and shuttered the studios entirely. For that I personally blame Vishnu for inheriting the cancer from another division to this side. Hell, they even have a episode of it explaining on how TTG got hyper promoted.
>>153699905>For that I personally blame Vishnu for inheriting the cancer from another division to this side.While i agree that vishnu deserves much of the blame, i also blame christina miller for not putting her foot down and telling vishnu to cut the shit with the TTG favoritism. The fact that she didnt says ti me that she approved of vishnu's spamming escapades. They are both responsible for the death of CN imo.
>>153697891>>153697904They fart and burp too
>>153699951Lets be honest, nothing was ever the same after the aqua teen bomb scare. Every exec which followed was stupider and more incompetent than the last. CN's fate was decided decades ago and all these retard suits inadvertently cemented that fate.
>>153700132Wrong, i hate this fucking myth. Even after the boston incident and CN real occurred, CN experienced a renaissance in the early 2010s with shows like adventure time and regular show and others. Christina miller taking over and neutering the channel by lessening the relevance of TV-PG shows in favor of pushing cringey infantilized and inoffensive slice of life cartoons like we bare bears or craig of the creek along with vishnu's TTG spam on the schedule is what finally killed cartoon network.
>>153700173>myth>>mythListen you underaged retard, I was there. For as good as their output between 2009 and 2012 was, nobody cared. The network was already competing against the internet even then. The few successes they saw in AT, Gumball, RS, etc helped but nowhere enough to move the needle for them. Bless them they tried to maintain quality and quantity but events outside of their control culminated in the worst rising to the top. Then the sucrose brand of liberal faggots advanced through the ranks and cemented the downward spiral. The network was already a sitting duck by 2018, just waiting for its demise, it's gotten so much worse now because they've effectively left it on autopilot for the last six years. The push for mindless lobotomized children's content is a side effect of the post-AT/SU era leaving the brand radioactive. The damage was already significant by then.
>>153697904Why do you think Ollie's Reward system is called Ollie's Army?

Im not even trying to argue i honestly want to discuss this
>>153700323Honestly it's hard to say, since they started off on the right foot by reintroducing cartoon planet and pushing DC Nation, but even that was undermined by the failure of the green lantern movie. The most I would have done differently is pushing AT and RS harder, possibly calling for a feature film sometime between 2012 and 2014, while viciously keeping the faggots out of the kitchen. Instead of revivals I'd have rerun older shows and sought a WORTHWHILE merchandising partner to bring in more money to the studio too. I likely also would have made attempts to sell Ben 10 to an older audience, just so the network retained some appeal with older male audiences and dont just genocide all action cartoons. They should have bent over backwards to maintain variety instead of becoming the beanmouth faggot and pony show network.
>>153700465>I likely also would have made attempts to sell Ben 10 to an older audience, just so the network retained some appeal with older male audiences and dont just genocide all action cartoons.Oh i 100% agree with you there. I hate how ben 10 dumbed itself down more and more for small kids starting with ben 10 omniverse. Also i do think CN went out of their way to kill most of their action shows by the early 2010s for whatever reason, it sucks. >They should have bent over backwards to maintain variety instead of becoming the beanmouth faggot and pony show network.I hate to be that guy, but pastel horse show was on the hub. It was never on cartoon network.
>>153697891>>153698242>>153698264Well, at least 3 people bought it and like it
>>153700616I wasnt talking about the pastel horse show, I just made a colorful variation of "dog and pony show" out of irritation with what CN became. Everything they made after AT and Regular show was a beanmouth comedy. Also, remember how they dumped BTB on Toonami? In place of the reboot I'd have made a Ben 10K series tonally reminiscent of the OS, Batman 2005, and TT'03 specifically to air on Toonami. After it I'd air some other CN action classics, maybe BATB or Xiaolin, before going all in on the anime. CN really just fumbled every golden goose they had. Mishandling Ben was the last straw and it shows because none of the subsequent revivals landed. Not PPG and certainly not roar. Not to mention this latest wave of originals boiling down to CN's lost generation of cartoons.
>>153700707>my kid keeps bringing it everywhere and making it burp/fart.Fucking hell that kid is a future brapfag in the making.
>>153697904>"your new favorite show" That genuinely did more damage to Teen Titans Go's public perception than any fetish episodes they pumped out over the years.
>>153697891he eat too many pizza...
>>153702313>"your new favorite [anything]!"Has this ever been an effective sales tactic? From my experience, people don't like feeling like they're having something forced on them.
>>153697891Beast Boy.. easy on the tofu
>>153698047I got a white owlbear figure from the D&D movie at Ollie's for like $10 and was actually pretty pleased with it.
>>153697891>PERFECT FOR CHILDREN WITH NO NECKS!>FINALLY A TOY JUST FOR ME!
>>153703581>gift times mass equals... the theory of happiness??
So is the show just gonna recast Cipes and keep it pushing, or what?
>>153704924I think they axed the BB spin off just to delay the inevitable, which is also why we're being punished by the upcoming starfire series.
>>153697891What if this is one of the only remaining things from humanity
>>153698047eh, replacing the king with the next in the line to the throne is pretty logical storytelling decision. she couldn't carry it though, i think she was even dumb enough to get in drama about being antivax.
>>153705083that can be arranged
