off topic, but according to maxwell atoms during season 1, he had to argue with storyboard artists over mandy smiling hence why she smiled every now and then. he also mentioned that when fixing the storyboards, he'd miss panels and it would be left in

Aoyama: With Ranma I was really shocked. I thought "there's so many boobs"! ... "Thinking that the person who drew Maison Ikkoku and Mermaid Forest were the same... It's amazing."

this is ridiculous. why does she look like this.

Daily reminder that lum cute

I need to emphasize that as much as people tend to mock OG Scooby-Doo for how much it cut corners for animation, it's genuinely so damn funny.

Why is the porn side of TADC fandom lowkey better. Everyone is chill as balls

Blazing Saddles (1974) is the rare studio comedy that genuinely feels like it’s getting away with something. WB nearly didn’t release it because executives thought the movie was too offensive, then it ended up becoming one of the biggest comedy hits.

JOHN KRICFALUSI: Misunderstood Genius or Lottery-Winner and Predator? A Thread 🧵 by “F” The main reason we even know the name “John K.” is because he came along at a time when people had been absolutely STARVED for a decent cartoon. It’s as though everyone had been stuck in an elevator for 20 years with a Muzak version of “Tiny Bubbles” playing on a loop and out of nowhere the doors opened, K. got on with an electric guitar and started playing “Livin’ on a Prayer” with some competency. It’s not that the song is that great or his playing was so masterful… it’s that we got a taste of something GOOD again. When you’ve been living with “lame” long enough, “good” can seem “great.” So… is K. “great” or did he just come along at the right time? Let’s examine what we know: - His drawing skills absolutely cannot be denied. He has mastered the art of drawing like John K. and he either cannot or sees no reason to work in any other style, because - as he will tell you with vehement and psychopathic rage - all other styles are shit and unworthy of acknowledgment. - The first two seasons of “Ren and Stimpy” were truly hilarious and beautifully executed… but how much of that can be attributed to him? He surrounded himself with eager, young talent who were anxious to prove themselves and work on something worthwhile, which allowed him to mentor them - but it also allowed him to berate, abuse and beat them into submission at every possible opportunity. So… yes, seasons 1 & 2 were great… but were they great BECAUSE of him or IN SPITE of him? Or both? It’s a legitimate question when you consider what came afterwards, but we’ll get to that later. - During that first two seasons, he would go on to loudly decry anyone who wasn’t him. The Simpsons, anime, his employers, his former peers… if you weren’t Ralph Bakshi or John K., you were an idiot. This created an “US vs. THEM” ecosystem that is still alive today. You can’t possibly love Miyazaki AND Ren & Stimpy, because K. had declared that only one type of animation style matters. - Despite working his crews day and night, every episode seemed to be late. Nickelodeon was constantly having to compensate and work around it (while also enduring his petulant attitude) because… well… money! - Famously, it all collapsed and everyone pointed the finger at big, bad ol’ Nickelodeon for the crime of expecting K. to fulfill his contractual responsibilities. So he became a beloved martyr. But surely whatever came NEXT would show ‘em… right?! Right? - “Ripping Friends”… um… okay… “Yogi Bear”… ummmm… “George Liquor Internet Cartoon”… hmmm… “Cans without Labels” (still not done)… and let’s not forget the thing that was supposed to thoroughly redeem him: “R&S Adult Party Cartoon”… ugh. Each of these were supposed to vindicate K. and prove his detractors wrong… but each one of these was riddled with missed deadlines, broken promises and, let’s face it, a distinct lack of… “FUNNY”! I was as big a John K. fan as anyone…. Thoroughly embedded in his camp… but eventually I had to ask the uncomfortable question: How many more second chances should we give this guy? Members of his crews went on to do great things… so what if it was THEM propping him up all along? I’ve been in a room with both Vince Waller and John K. Vince will crack you up. K. Will make you feel like an insect. I’m just sayin’. All of these things are enough reason to say, “Yeah… eff that guy.” And THEN there’s the REST of it… Grooming… abuse… harassment… statutory “improprieties”… and the hard drive filled with stuff that ruined the lives of countless children… stuff he got off on. Think about that. You really wanna make excuses for that? I’m perfectly capable of separating the art from the artist… I am still able to enjoy R&S for their craftsmanship and contribution to reviving the art of the cartoon. But as for John K. himself? He can go straight to hell and stay there.
