If proximity to an uber-confident cutie pie weren't in the eyes of the average male more exciting than everything else in the world put together, the risk of being a "dead-broke dad" would've deterred teenage boys from boning their girlfriends by now.

Nice confession
>>
>>154202588
While the Internet has never been a bastion of honesty, the outside world isn't necessarily better on the matter of looks.

They call Meghan McCain ugly, yet call the local fish and chips waitress hot for looking a lot like Meghan McCain.

They call Megyn Kelly ugly, until they want an excuse to attack her for racy photoshoots in which case they accuse her of misusing her beauty.

They call Michelle Obama butch (ok, apart from Obama supporters and Penn Jillette; and Penn is uniquely honest) for having not quite as soft-looking a body as Super Pochaco's, yet it's not like Urbosa's body looks quite so soft either and I don't see as many people complaining.

Looks might be the last-stand-on-Earth of "topics the Internet might actually be LESS compulsively dishonest on than the outside world is."

So yeah, when we lose that, it might be cause for concern.

>>154202819
She is a nervous wreck. She loses her mind every time something goes the slightest bit wrong. Transforming an emperor into a llama who can't prove he used to be the emperor is an ability an ordinary citizen would be envious of.

Maleficent just moves on to her next option.

As well, a greater portion of Maleficent's confidence is about her looks. Yzma's confidence in even that seems fake if her letting the kids' remarks about her age get to her is anything to go by.

To whatever extent it's sincere, it's hubris on her part, and the other characters clearly don't agree with her.
>>
>>154202840
She's funnier.
>>
>>154202854
Eh, I don't find either funny, but perhaps I've just built up a tolerance mainlining YTPs for my fix of comedy. :/

Also, if viewers prioritized "funny" over "cute / sexy / any middle ground between the two" wouldn't Kathy Griffin's comedic value have drawn attention away from Christina Hendricks' seductiveness by now?

Clearly if 4channers didn't see themselves as exceptions to that generalization, they'd either be watching porn or going to the pub to talk to real life uber confident cutie pies instead of talking about Reddit's Disney villain popularity contests
>>
>>154202526
Yzma was the most interesting character out of that selection, and did the most in the course of the story to affect its plot
>>
>>154202811
I wouldn't go that far. There *should* be overlap between Redditors and 4channers if only as a continuous social experiment on the similarities and differences between a site where usernames are the norm and one where so much as tripcodes are looked down upon.
>>
>>154202577
It's far from the only factor but;

A. It's one of many, and...

B. It's the canary in the coal mine for more important things. Why would anyone waste animators' time depicting ugly characters? If it's to virtue signal about being non-shallow, why does the audience they're supposedly pander to make cheap shots at the exact same appearance traits in real people?
>>

Ooh, what a convincing counterargument... NOT.
>>
>>154202840
Yes, people express all their human traits according to their differences. Yzma’s appeal is in her contradiction and imperfections while the appeal of Maleficent is in her fatally fixated perfection, so you can guess why Yzma’s brand of cuteness and confidence won a popularity contest while as you pointed out Maleficent would probably win a contest in beauty, composure, or perfect expression of confidence.

How would you measure that? Scar killed a major character and gaslit another into blaming himself, Ursula tricked a lovesick teen into the aquatic equivalent of indentured servitude, Maleficent's death threats against the protagonist provoked royalty into drastic measures against every possible implement she could use and Facilier blended cold reading with literal magic to gaslight actual royalty.

Because life is not all sunshine and rainbows, you privileged Mutt.

Have you considered that people like you repeatedly choosing to escape over and over again is part of why things are as fucked as they are?

Maybe if there's enough media depicting the ugly truths of life, people will finally get sick enough to actually revolt.

Depicting ugly fictional characters won't make real people any prettier. You need either makeup, genetic engineering, or a way to pay women to impregnate themselves with sperm of the beautiful ones. The former being the only thing the public has gone for willingly thus far.

Also, "ugly realities of life" =/= "ugly individuals." Plenty of shows are rich in pretty characters who are in ugly situations.

And yet, somehow, people call the former butch for appearance traits they don't call butch in the latter.

>Depicting ugly fictional characters won't make real people any prettier.
No one says it will. But showing the realities of life makes people more aware of what is actually happening around them instead of coddled infantile losers.
>>154208504
See above. Maybe you can't change it on your own, doesn't mean it shouldn't be talked about just because you hate seeing it in your media.
>>
>>154209985
>No one says it will. But showing the realities of life makes people more aware of what is actually happening around them instead of coddled infantile losers.

Why? Just because we see pretty characters in fiction doesn't mean we pretend that's all that exists in real life. If we didn't see time dilation in fiction would we pretend it didn't exist in real life?
>>
>>154210085
>Why? Just because we see pretty characters in fiction doesn't mean we pretend that's all that exists in real life.
The media people watch influences the way their perceive reality. Common stereotypes, expectations, etc. That's a pretty apparent fact of life. Therefore, more nuanced media helps people acquire a more nuanced outlook on reality.
>>
>>154210205
>The media people watch influences the way their perceive reality

Unfalsifiable, at best. You cannot distinguish "they watch this show because it reflects what they already believe" from "they believe it because they watch this show."

Frankly I'd call it worse than unfalsifiable, because one of the best selling movies if you don't adjust for inflation is Avatar, and an alarming number of people were rooting for Colonel Quaritch, a character the movie went out of its way to condemn.
>>
>>154210291
>Unfalsifiable
Yeah and I'm not proposing a scientifc hypothesis, so that's not relevant. It's common sense. Sanitized media that doesn't reflect any part of reality is boring and stunts/coddles people by allowing them to pretend the unpleasant aspects of reality don't exist.
>one of the best selling movies if you don't adjust for inflation is Avatar, and an alarming number of people were rooting for Colonel Quaritch, a character the movie went out of its way to condemn.
At the very least, this kind of thing causes people to start talking and discussing, making them more aware of the differences between each other and the potential reasons for those differences.
Also, people side with him because they didn't make him look lke a loser or a psycho. If Avatar took itself seriously as a work of propaganda, it wouldn't bother making the villain look cool or badass, it would simply depict him as a fat raped cuck or as a raving psycho frothing at the mouth. That would be an easy way to ensure no one ever roots for him if they really needed that. That's how the enemy is usually depicted in actual war-time propaganda, after all.

The people who are being coddled are the hypocrites who make cheap shots in real life at the same appearance traits they demand be depicted in fiction, not just by hiring ugly actors but by needlessly wasting animators' time depicting them.

Except in real life evil is often competent, and it's up to the rest of us to either be more competent or compensate in numbers for what we lack in competence.

In a world full of unrealistic BS portrayals of the military like Top Gun it's refreshing that Avatar depicted something more accurate about a military officer's methods.

You sound like you have some personal issue with some people who did that, but this isn't very relevant to the principle itself.
>not just by hiring ugly actors but by needlessly wasting animators' time depicting them.
Narrow-minded assumption that animators want to depict beautiful things only. There are plenty examples of grotesque animation out there. You could probably name a few yourself.
>>

>You sound like you have some personal issue with some people who did that, but this isn't very relevant to the principle itself.

It is absolutely "relevant to the principle itself" for the "principle itself" is borne of the worldview of such hypocrites.


>Narrow-minded assumption that animators want to depict beautiful things only. There are plenty examples of grotesque animation out there. You could probably name a few yourself.

Animators who depict what they want to depict are called "hobbyists." For-profit animation depicts whatever will pay the bills. Fans who create demand for ugly shit are therefore wasting animators' time by putting "pays the bills" at cross purposes with "depicts what people who aren't virtue signaling hypocrites want to see."

Yzma is hilarious and a charming villainess despite her looks.
In fact her look makes more hilarious.
