It does seem to imply some big shake up is happening with MW. He posted sneak previews of the next episode as early as last week, so he’s not stopping production just yet.

Some posters repeat the same comments regardless of news since they want to starve out the project of helpful feedback so Zeruel will make porn or something else they want.

AI solves this problem by giving intelligent feedback on anything at any time, so they either have to start using their brains or be nothing more than tiny pests.

Retard take. Artists need writers to tard wrangle them and keep them from filling the plot with moments that the artist thinks would be "cool" at the expense of a cohesive storyline. Made if Monkey Wrench had a proper lead writer the first five fucking episodes wouldn't be borderline filler about two dogshit main characters that really should have just been cut from the get-go.

>>
>>154994652
>>154994798
Yup, rebranding/soft reboot seems like the most likely to happen.
The story only started going somewhere with episode 5, considering every episode has a 30 min runtime, that's terrible, 90% of the shit that happened so far in the show can be disregarded as filler.

Zeurel took WAY too long setting up the story, but now that we are getting another main character, things might get better.

>>154994865
That's real pathetic how he desperatly seeks to blame the dwindling viewership on anything but himself.

There are similar platforms to YT that tried to compete with it, but no one gave a fuck because everyone is already in YT, it's where all the good shit already is.

No I'm not Zeurel, but I am noticing how I will get into his position if I follow animation. There's a reason why vidya games boosted while animation fell in popularity. This is why I refused to become a lawyer, too many corrupt low-IQ faggots to convince which ignore hard evidence.

I'm surprised he didn't run off with the money he makes from Patreon, probably because it's not that much to begin with if we take into consideration Los Angeles salaries and the cost of animation. Who knows what day job he has.
Like I said before: he needs a marketer... which often comes together with a publisher.

Imagine wanting to make anything else but gothic circus clown stuff. Charlie+Lucifer are basically mime clowns rather than demons, gen-Z really really fucking love the clowns. I'm surprised Joker & Harley Queen aren't more popular than they already are.

Sad news is that they only seemed interested in proving yourself first, which means people tossing out a pilot without much of a means to go further probably are lower on their radar than "you've made a few episodes now, you keep making more and we'll distribute it for you."

Netflix casuals have a tendency to endlessly scroll the catalog and click things at random. It's true that a lot of them also only play the same few shows they know in the background while multitasking, but that's the thing about Netflix. They have such a huge userbase that both of these types are high in numbers. Netflix will likely add it to some "new releases" page, and regardless people scrolling through animation on there will come across it easier than coming across it on youtube if you aren't actively looking for it.

Double-edged sword. Dumbasses with another millenial woe is me furry slice of life concept who only put out a pilot because that's as far as their idea can go don't need to be acknowledged by Netflix at all. But there are plenty of people with great ideas and no means to get further than showing their pilot. Not everyone has millions of dollars to blow on making Monkey Wrench, nor would you expect a good creator out of anyone currently with some pre-built loud vocal audience, which is where their donations/merch money would come from.

I'd hope Netflix is at least considering looking for promising pilots and actually being wise to what deserves support, rather than just solely seeing if someone can fund multiple episodes themselves first. A strong pilot, if you manage to find it, deserves to be nurtured.

Not exactly, you still need to produce the show from your own pocket. That Alameda Blackrock money ran out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJsTa55AAjE
For example this pilot and many pilots will never be picked up by Netflix cause Netflix ran out of money to produce shows. Yeah Netflix is desperate. It's like Ed Edd Eddy that was made in-house and Cartoonnetwork was just the distributor, not the funder.

People buy into Netflix and thus a smaller pool - but a pool of people who are more likely to buy shit. Im looking at the success of KPDH and Squid Game merch shit.
Vs Youtube. Where its a bigger pool by way of it being free. But you really need to struggle to find and convince people willing enough to drop cash on merch and shit that properly funds the show.
Not everyone can be like say, mr beast and drop bullshit merch that sits on shelves for years at five below and eventually the dollar tree in the middle of fuck off nowhere, USA.

Interesting Q and A by Zeurel

Q: I thought you said you didn't want to go with a network / Streaming service?
A: I did, but unfortunately times and minds change. We're 6 years into this production and only have (almost) 6 eps done. Our funding isn't growing, merch isn't selling that well and I'm really starting to feel my age. Potentially getting picked up exclusively by NETFLIX will get us Budgets we could only dream of doing it indie, and if it gets this series made before I turn 45, then so be it!

You guys think we'll see more of this attitude with indie types?
>>
I genuinely don't understand these weird Netflix deals. This and TADC are still on YouTube, which is free and also accessible by every handheld/smart device that can use a Netflix app. Is there something I'm missing? Like, in other countries, people are blocked by YouTube so have to use Netflix or something?
>>
Since Netflix have picked up Monkey Wrench, does that mean he won't cry over not having enough funding now?
This shit is going to get immediately cancelled and Netflix retain the rights lmao.

Netflix pays to license a show that already has proven itself able to pump out shows at a fraction of the cost. Plus. No unions (for the most part) because indie.
Its easy as that.

So that means that Netflix is hunting indie productions... We're reaching to a dark age in animation.

Indeed.
>>
>>155006308
As long as he did decent negotiations and made sure he still has the rights he should be fine.
>>
>>155006610
As far as I understood, it's
>he keeps the rights to the show
>Netflix has the license to put it on their platform
>Netflix has exclusive merch rights and Zeurel gets a cut
so if they pull out he can just go back to his old model.

I mean people can act all tough and mighty until they get a paycheck. I can sit on my ass and say that I’d never sell my soul to Disney, but if I had a neat deal to make one of their movies, I’d take it. Movie might be shit, but if it gets me paid, it’s a job.
He also is keeping full rights so it’s not like Netflix gets to say what he should do next.

At least for MW the dubs are exclusive to the site, so any fan they could only get by speaking their language can be received there.

His circumstance is different, he has connections to Glitch which in turn means connections to Netflix. That and Goose shilling gets him on their radar. If this show was a blow out viral sensation, there would be no "prove yourself by making several episodes" stage because the idea would have already proven itself to be lucrative enough to greenlight.
>>155004813
>>155005303
Going corporate has always been the dream for the new indie wave. Don't be fooled, aside from Glitch, most of these pilots are hoping to go viral and get the rest funded by a network. It's cool to scoff at corporate media on Twitter but when push comes to shove, every single one of them would kill puppies for a network deal.

Being full indie is a pipe dream for full animation
You can be as animated as hunter the parenting and that's about it. Animation is expensive and needs a backer.
This is why I do comics for my garbage no need for a team or anything.

Hey it's money and vastly better than stocking shelves at a supermarket. I actually worked as an artist for a big company that was known to treat its employees bad and it was terrible, but the experience definitely gave me valuable insight on the industry. I still do some work for them today as a freelancer because AT WORST I'm taking money out of that fat fuck CEOs pocket while not having to commit to his bullshit anymore lol.

Yes
99 percent of "indie" types would instantly fold at such an offer. Flashgitz is an exception (for now)
>>
This is more proof that Vivzieslop and GLITCH have set unattainable standards for indie animation. REAL indie needs to return to the olden days of choppy movement and flash, that or indie animators should consider other mediums like comics even light novels

It all makes so much sense now. Especially now that the oldfags have left and there's nobody to tell you to GTFO BACK TO >>>/r/eddit. The phrase is still filtered hence Reddit took over and destroyed 4chan. It wasn't /b/ ... it was Reddit, Reddit was the cancer that killed 4chan all along. Partap Davis is a Reddit moderator.

APOLOGIZE TO ZEUREL NOW.

She’s still making that owl house comic for disney, so she’s clearly not that high and mighty about it. She just sells her image as being that. Just like Alex Hirsch, they make their fans think they’re rebels when they are as much a cog as anyone else.

On the other hand, Zeurel now has no excuse if MW still flops.

If getting shilled by nearly everyone worth their salt on the Indie scene AND an actual investor/publisher behind it can’t save this show, nothing on earth can.

Really gay thing to say
>>155011930
Plenty of shows have been shilled to 0 success, both industry and indie. You can’t force people to like something with marketing. From the start, Monkey Wrench was way more of a sensation than any of those pilots enjoyed by nobody outside the industry, but they don’t get this heckling for gay reasons.

He really isn't. Zeurel has been bleeding money trying to make Monkey Wrench this major production that rivals studio-backed TV cartoons. Had it not been for Netflix reaching out, he would've surely been in an even rougher spot than we could imagine

The show is fine, but the guy does NOT understand that making multiple episodes of an independent animated series requires cutting some corners where you can and being a bit more economical with how you make the dang thing
