>There were people who believed that indie would not only replace the industry but somehow exceed it in qualityWhat what the mindset behind this? Did people seriously expect a bunch of YouTube amateurs to bring about a new animation renaissance?
if we banned trannification then indie animation would be way better
>>156232074Before Covid this was a laughable notion but in the current year what industry cartoons are there there to talk about? The turn to indie wasn't exactly a voluntary one.
>>156232100Not OP but I just wish people would admit what's going onViewers don't give a shit about muh indie freedomThey just want cable TV to be replicated on youtubeYou all miss the industry
>>156232074>My indie character isn't thereMaybe someday
If Skibidi Toilet wasn't crippled by corporate interest we'd be in that world.
>>156232074To be fair, this is what "indie vs industry" looked like in 2019, and indie did technically surpass the industry because the industry died
>>156232285Both of these give my eyes gonorrhea
>>156232074
>>156232293Then change mediums and read comics my friend. Alternatively watch anime.
>>156232074Why the fuck is Hatemonger purple
>>156232512That's his cousin Grapemonger
>>156232074The industry died and people were desperate for any kind of replacement.
>>156232074It was hype, don't ask it to make sense. Studios are great at polishing turds because they define the market. It was a kind of rebellion to pretend we had the will to turn the tables on them.
>>156232074Hey hatemonger is there
>>156232182people miss yesterdays industry and expect it to be remade in a dumpster fire while all the monsters that brought it to being a dumpster fire still run rampant.because otherwise happening means either pretending its corpse is alive and acting the same or admitting the systems failed badly enough the circus broke down and bread could only be a bit behind.lefts out of touch and in denial on all of this and calls execs pulling out of the wastes of money being forced on them evidence of republican tyranny over the system while public's watching the whole industry burning under a pile of the lefts propaganda and its leaders scream how we should be grateful over them burning it down to rule over the ashes.we are right before the corner turn where business as usual stops and its gonna be nasty as hell for a long while afterward.
People were more optimistic about online animation back when they thought it would have the creativity of Golden Age Youtube but more polished, refined and vaguely aware of the concept of storytelling. It was reasonably assumed that it was sufficiently distinct from old media and its inherent nepotism.Turns out that it makes no difference because American animation is one big high school clique centered around fucking Twitter. Oh well.
>>156233233Filmcow already gave Charlie the Unicorn lore and made a gay furry spinoff. Nobody watched it.
>2005-2006: no money on youtube >2007-2012: Machinima takes half your ad revenue and owns your soul>2012-2016: watch time algorithm >2017-2019: the adpocalypse >2020-2023: youtube aggressively shills high CPM niches (finance channels)>2024-present: shorts & TV pushWhen is the golden age of youtube animation?
>>156233210Noone's really wrong there. Conservative executives regularly asassinate progressive shows that are well recieved by a large audience (owl house) and execs have been doing that to all kinds of shows since the industry began. People rag on steven universe but it would have been a better show if they'd spent their time just making it instead of fighting to be allowed to make it. Conservatives would be right to bemoan the lack of representation in cartoons. Its kind of a product of their politics being hostile to most of the people who make cartoons, but casting blame doesnt get shows made either. Shits fucked and "indie" has its own problems, but the good news is you can find what you want if you just go niche and small enough
>>156233252I vaguely recall it. It had a little charm but it was also very obviously not what people expected.I do kinda feel for Steele since he has the very rare ability to make lolsorandum humor actually work but no one wants to do that forever.
>>156233252The one with the ferret and the coat? That was pretty good. I got filtered at first too but the last episode pulled it back together. I guess if its not for you theres always the ghost house
Even funnier is the amount of indie types that admit they'd go corporate if they had the opportunity See Zeurel
>>156232182>You all miss the industryI do not as the ****industry**** failed to live up to previous generational expectation. If you honestly think people think that, you are literally sheep or just pigs that consume industry slop.You miss your slop little piggy. No me. LOL
>>156232074>Snowball, BunnykillI love that nigga like you wouldn’t believe.
>>156232074Not a single one of these was ever good or entertaining in the slightest. Not even the stupid gookshit cat and bunny.>>156232431Anime is for fuckin babies and comic books are trash. The real answer is to just watch Football.
>>156233472nigger the execs and audience fucking despise the leftist insanity thats the ONLY FUCKING THING ALLOWED TO THRIVE HEREconfusing the captive audience trying to make do with half a functioning adventure show for actually wanting the leftist insanity that was killing that show is hardly helpful.and thats the big thing being ignored here leftist fuckwits had all their competition in the industry killed but audience is still the same the modern audience leftists always rave bouts a hallucination.shitload of these new media productions are just inheriting a captive audience rather than building a new one. faggots are social addicts and integrating immigrants fell apart completely such most just put their kids in front of home countries tv.leftist politics are just plain hostile period and the morons have been trained to see their aggression being resisted as violence rather than defense
>>156233287>When is the golden age of youtube animation?Never. Youtube just became an easy replacement for Newgrounds since Runka Chunk kept shitting up the latter.
>>156234394
>>156234390>The real answer is to just watch Football>Watching millionaires stop and start passing around a ball for an hour and give each other concussions while getting shilled gambling ads and crypto scamsNo thanks, I actually respect my time and wallet, I'll just read a book then.
>>156234390
>>156234390>Teen/Adult content is for babies.>The real answer is watching some boring badly recorded video of guys kicking a ball into a net.Anon, your post is quite possibly the most retarded thing I've seen in the whole site so far.
>>156234457Haven't you heard? /co/ is the most approachable board.
>>156234425>Ha! I'll double down on my faggotry by doing the thing that causes faggotry to spread!Hope you find one that hasn't been burned yet loser.>>156234479>Teen/Adult contentOoh! It's cartoons but it's got a lot of blood and swearing and titties! So adult! Much mature! Come back to me when the tojos make a cartoon that screams they deserve another bomb drop.
>>156234561>Reading spreads FaggotryYet you are here, posting in a text format. I don't know but either you don't believe your own words or a hypocrite, neither option makes you look good anon.
>>156234594>neither option makes you look goodDon't care. Books are still dumb. Cartoons are still dumb. Death and taxes are the only truths of the world.
>>156234626Anon you are getting worked up talking to strangers on the internet. No one is forcing you to post in this thread. You obviously care, that's why you keep posting. If you didn't care you wouldn't be here.
>>156234394>captive audienceyou're tied to a chair? walk away lmao turn off the TV (˃ᗜ˂)
