>>88936I actually hate body diversity shoehorned in so fatties can feel better about their terrible life choices. I'd rather have characters be fit or at least reasonably average. Fat characters are better suited to the peripheral. It's not cool to be fat or to encourage youth to be ok with being obese. Making a character suddenly fat because diversity pisses me off. If Stormer was always fat I wouldn't care. But she looks like she's never met a buffet table that she didn't like.
In the cartoon the Misfits exercised a lot. There were plenty of scenes where they were working out.
I've seen pages of this comic. It looks so tumblr and "mah diversity" that I wanted to puke. I really hate it.
Some fans shipped Kimber and Stormer because of that one episode where they quit their bands for being under-appreciated and form a duo. But if you are gonna make it canon at least make it look like something that happens naturally. It was really fanfictiony. Which is how I regard this comic. Bad fanfiction that got published somehow.

Wow! Wubbzy! and also former producer and art director of the Butch Hartman's animated series The Fairly OddParents and Danny Phantom would also produce. Meanwhile, Craig McCracken, original creator of The Powerpuff Girls, would not work on the series, even though he gave the show his approvalThis is why it's shit. The original creator literally wanted nothing to do with it, Cartoon Network just wanted some more cashmoney dollars.

>>89060Yeah, and apparently it's all of a part of big marketing scheme. Rumors said they cast the younger actresses so they can 'show them off' on social media. Come to think of it, it might be true. We don't see the original voices being showed off often in the media like this when the original came out, but since social media is rampant now, they feel the need to cast the younger albeit unknown actresses to the tweens demographic, so they can be more 'relatable'.

>>88994This. So many times this. Let me tell you anon - I feel seething rage towards this fucking reboot. I love the original movie to bits and the moment I heard they're making a "reboot" instead of a passing-of-a-torch sequel and the "reboot" is going to have an all-female cast I knew it was going to be awful. I mean I'm female and have no problem with female characters. But when you go all out like that and get the king of cucks (Paul Feig, pic related) to direct you just know it's going to be a patronizing, low-level, tacky flick trying to cash in on feminism because of COURSE women will watch and feel empowered by anything as long as it has women, no matter how shitty the writing is right? Grill power!
I really, really hated watching the movie. I didn't pay for it in the theaters because I didn't want to fund this kind of shit. I'm so glad it flopped because it was an awful piece of unfunny shit and the way their marketing relied ONLY on the "look at your new heroes girls lol misogynists btfo!" thing made it even worse. They had a fucking movie universe planned around this crappy movie and seriously thought it was going to be the bomb just because feminism is the "in" thing right now. They really fucking thought women were that stupid. I have rarely felt as insulted in my entire life. The issues they faced during the development really show on the screen and according to the leaked e-mails they forced Bill Murray to make a cameo by some shady means just to take those desperate measures to appeal to the fans of the original movie. Bill Murray, the man who denied any thought of a new Ghostbusters movie for over 20 years and was basically the reason the 3rd movie never got made despite numerous tries.
Someone once mentioned that if they wanted to make a genderswap to emasculate the original loved flick to the altar of feminism, why did they pick ghostbusters instead of some macho movie that's all about male empowerment? Why did they pick the "everyday American" comedy about a couple of slobbish exterminators trying to keep up a small business? It's so retarded and only because the director (a man) thinks feminism is about shooting male ghosts in the dick and queef jokes.

Now, everything is just so bland, so generic, so smooth moving. You can select a whole arm in any basic animating software and giggle it around : bam, you got 5s of animation without having to draw that arm 15 times in 15 positions.
I feel like there's just no personnality left anymore with those types of animation. It can be done well but it irks me when it's for a reboot of a show like the magic school bus.

>>204692>It's amazing how much charm these cartoons lose in the translation from hand-drawn animation to Flash/3D animation.That's because computer animation always looks more fake than drawn stuff. I know drawn animation is "fake" too but it's organic. CGI movement is controlled by humans but created by machines, so it's "too perfect" and thus too unnatural. And of course the textures always look like plastic, whereas in a more simpler hand-drawn environment your brain fills in whatever blanks it has. CGI doesn't let you do that.

To be fair, considering she’s probably a lab creation, the changes are all justified but the reason it doesn’t work is because she looks drastically different from the ppgs. Her freakish legs, bright hair, garnet hips and skin color all contribute to her sticking out like a sore thumb.

All the other girls are the same height and size with a color palette that follows some natural aesthetic archetype - blue eyed blonde, green eyes black hair and "brown" eyed ginger (turned pink because it's a cartoon for girls and she's the "main" ppg), and then there's… her.
Speaking only about character design, why is she bigger? Why does she have HIPS? It seems like an extremely racist choice not to make her as young and innocent looking as the others. (This is an actual issue that non-retarded people who fight racism talk about: how black girls are always sexualized and never portrayed in the same innocent, delicate light as white girls are)
Then there's the color palette. I get that it's harder to make a black character visually stimulating and still natural since brown skin, black hair and brown eyed isn't a very good choice for obvious reasons, but it feels like instead of trying to work with it they just said "well, we're doing this to appeal to a tumblrtard audience and they like mermaid and unicorns, right? Yeah, those are gonna be get colors. Lavender and bright blue, like a mermaid unicorn!" and called it a day.
They could have gone for yellow for her eyes and clothes, for example, and left her hair black (with dreads maybe?). As she is now, she just looks like some shitty self-insert and not like an official character.

>>209615The real reason the PPG reboot even happened was actually because of toy sales. That's why the show itself is so cheap and stale, complete with new "talent" like nobody voice actors and awful animation. It doesn't need to be good, it just lives off the old shows reputation and they make most the money off merchandise. Teen Titans Go was similar but with even less care for the source material. Sailor Moon Crystal even suffered this fate.

Anyone seen the leak for G5 My Little Pony (pic related)? What are your thoughts?
I get the feeling that it's just really nice fanart being passed off as concept art for a new generation, but if this does happen to be real I think it's pretty cute, even piebald Applejack if they tone down her poofy hair.
I kind of hope it's fake and that the real G5 (if there actually will be one) won't focus on the same 6 from FIM and will either use different ponies from past generations (Minty, Fizzy, Wysteria, etc.) or maybe even create brand new main ponies. I'm also hoping the toy line won't be as ugly as G4's itty bitty pieces of plastic. Even the G3.5 toys were cuter imo.
I wonder if bronies would ruin G5 like they did G4. Maybe to a lesser extent?
No. 219930
>>219880Damn, I didn't think I'd see another fan on here. It seems as if you can't enjoy this anymore because men "claimed" it and now everybody and their mother associates an inherently feminine show with those dudes. It does look as if its just fanart and I wish the hair on AJ was toned down. It just doesn't suit her. Also the reason why older gen characters weren't used in FiM is because Hasbro lost the rights to every character except for AJ. That is why certain ponies take on the name of past ponies (like how Lickity Split is now a boy and brown) yet don't retain the same design as their previous incarnations. This all happened before FiM aired.
As for if bronies would ruin it, some will like it and some won't. That's pretty much what happened when they made Equestria Girls, which I personally enjoy and the normal FiM, but ofc bronies bash EQG because they aren't horses and its "girly shit with love stories".
Oh the fucking irony of that criticism..
No. 219944
>>219880I like the return to more elegant proportions, and piebald AJ is ridiculously cute. But FIM's style really worked to take advantage of Flash animation's 'limitations' (of course amazing stuff's been made in Flash, but FIM's animation was still pretty great for a merch-selling kid's show). I dunno how a more 'realistic' style will be pulled off.
I stopped watching FIM after the finale where Twilight Sparkle got wings, but man, I still really cherish my memories and enjoyment of the show.
No. 219967
>>219880They're claiming G5 will be a CG alternate universe of G4. I really hope they don't do that because CG ages so poorly and is just a fad in animation right now to CG everything. Part of the success of G4 was it was a well animated 2D series with "lore" it respected and continuity. The leaks claim they're going to cater to an older audience and want to be more "cartoon" to net older girls and women and less "only little girl franchise".
I kind of laughed because bronies are simply never factored in by them, no matter how much they whine. Hasbro was like this too, even at the peak of the brony phenomenon. They are only a very small and vocal part of the market, no matter how they try to spin it. Most bronies actually claimed MLP jumped ship very early on (G4 season 3, especially by the end of it.) and threw a legendary fit on 4chan and their online forums, most quitting the franchise altogether. Yet, they claimed before it should be tailored to them and said they had more money than little girls. It was so stupid, too. It all over Twilight becoming a unicorn with wings and a princess and them not liking Cadence a new princess pony at all. Hasbro has the right idea in not catering to manchildren.

I pretty much like every row with maybe a couple of changes to row 6 (Flutter's green hooves and horn are strange and Rainbow Dash being so ornate doesn't really suit her, but the rest look great, especially AJ) but I'm not a fan of row 2. Rainbow and Pinkie's designs are overkill, and Twilight and AJ look so dull compared to the others.
For the final design, I want the art style of either row 3 or 5, but with the Applejack design from row 6.

Then I thought maybe they were flipping the personalities to make it more different but Veronica worked so well because she was an even split between the students. Flipping the personalities doesn't work for her because she had a little bit of everyone. She was a little bit JD, a little bit Betty and a little bit Heather. She even says herself that she could have easily been the next Heather and the Heathers themselves show signs of not being what they appear.

Statements from people involved with the show as quoted in
https://themuse.jezebel.com/here-is-the-extremely-confusing-trailer-for-the-new-hea-1822232812Talking about the series theme, Brendan Scannell who plays Heath Duke, a gay Heather, said “The idea is that power corrupts and that everyone is at their core an asshole and concerned for themselves. In the movie three beautiful women where wrecking havoc on the school; that was new and hadn’t been done before. Our modern retelling centers around marginalized communities—a plus-size, a Black girl and a queer—trashing everyone around them.”
“The main thing to really take away is I don’t view the Heathers as the villains,” showrunner Jason Micallef told EW. “The three Heathers are incredibly powerful and ruling the school; they’re the people you would want to be. In the original film, the Heathers were the ones I always loved, and it’s the same with the series. The Heathers are the aspirational characters. [That the Heathers are the villains is] the underlying thesis of the small segment of people that have an issue with it. The villain is J.D. — and that’s the same in the movie and same in our show.”

Star Wars has more or less been soft rebooted under Disney ownership. Episode 7 (TFA) was overall mediocre but felt somewhat true to the series. I was hopeful that Episode 8 (TLJ) would be an improvement, and give the protagonists some badly-needed development. What we got instead was at least 80% garbage. I don't want to spend ages sperging out about what went wrong, but suffice to say I'm through giving DisneyWars chances.

It's not perfect and had some sudden and questionable humor but Star Wars was always kind of cheesy.

The casino part was terrible but other than that, I don't understand where all the controversy comes from.

The only things I found actually bad was, as mentioned, the casino scene (disney trying to paint rich folk as inhumane and cruel was kind of hilarious though) and I can agree that for example the 'romance' between Finn and Rose was very rushed.

You think that the showbiz has reached a low but then they manage to lower your expectations you didn't even know you had.
> I mean, now a days a reboot only means charge half the cast to black people and call it day instead of writing a really good show or an actual follow up story.
Yeah, it seems it's like that now. I wish I could be as ignorant of it all, unfortunately, I get it in my feed or hear about it through imageboards and forums.
Honestly, I'm glad that I was a kid during the late 90s.

>>252128Sabrina won't be anything like the previous show. It's based on pic related so it's going to be dark and edgy, not like the quirkly, kid-friendly series from the 90s. They've already cast the lead girl, not sure about any other characters.
I'm pretty pissed because any media reporting on the new series always include photos of the original series and how they're "so excited for a reboot!" and not artwork from the comic, which I'm sure they'd be less excited about. I'd say all the hype being generated from the media is going to leave a lot of fans really disappointed over the new series. And that's coming from someone who has read the comic, really enjoyed it and is really looking forward to the series.

>>229171Omg this. I grew up watching H20 so I gave this a chance. It's vapid and terrible. I skipped forward to the episode that Cariba Heine appears in and it actually broke my heart.
The entire episode revolves around how Rikki is an asshole and how mermaids born at sea are so much stronger and better than people who became mermaids by accident. It felt like a giant "fuck you" to the original series, rather than a respectful tribute. They could have had her act like a mentor to the new girls or something. It actually felt like someone's shitty H20 fanfiction, except worse.
The Vampire Diaries/The Originals are now getting another spin-off called Legacies which is supposed to be about the children of the characters from the previous two shows. Not sure what to think about it yet. I have a feeling it's going to be shit because the cast are going to be younger than the cast of the previous shows which makes me think that they're trying to appeal to a new, younger audience rather than the original fans who are probably all now in their 20s.
Roswell, which I loved so much and was really upset by it being cancelled is getting a reboot. I'm NOT happy about this one. It's exactly what
>>252128 was complaining about:
>After returning to her hometown of Roswell, New Mexico, the daughter of undocumented immigrants discovers her teenage crush is an alien who has kept his unearthly abilities hidden his entire life.

>>252121I 100% honestly thought this was one of those joke calarts parodies people sometimes do and was shocked to find out that it's legitimate. The animation looks bad and the character designs are a fucking joke. The story boards looked SO lazily done.
I doubt it'll go beyond the pilot though, the like/dislike ratio on the reveal video is 2.5 likes to 34k dislikes and it's growing. I'm pretty sure the show's creators are going to have a meltdown on Twitter about the audience reaction, just like all the other Calarts reboot assholes before them.

Second one seems to be loved by the fans but I personally didn't like it. Main characters lost their depth while other characters that were important have become nothing but a background accessory. Also introduction of Mari which is a pointless character used only for fanservice.
Third one is complete and utter shit. I don't know what they were thinking with that one but it seems it was made by a bunch of dumb otaku who can only write shitty anime stereotypes. What was Anno thinking?

I only played the first nulara game but there were no tombs, more like caves where there's a convenient treasure lying around.

I didn't even bother pirating the other nulara games.

Don't know if this counts as a reboot, but I grew up reading Archie comics and I laughed when I saw the trailer for Riverdale.
My curiosity peaked and I ended up watching the first season. It kept me watching, but only for bad reasons. A light hearted comic about highschool friends turned into a drama that young girls would be into. Archie fucked the teacher, the weird incesty vibe I got from Cheryl Blossom, the whole pregnancy story line…So dumb. It reminded me of scream queens or vampire diaries or pretty little liars or one of those trash tv shows aimed at teen girls.
Jughead is a fucking emo instead a a jokester who eats all the time.
I feel liked Archie like tge simpsons, is one of those shows that just shouldn't be attempted to be made into live action, let alone a shitty teen soap opera.
If they did wanna remake it, a movie would have been better, but even then, Archie is always going back and forth on Betty and Veronica, so a movie wouldn't allow closure.
I feel like I am alone in this opinion, because every girl I know loves this show. Even lose the fact that it was based on as comic, and I still get shitty netflix mediocre vibes from it.

Most video game women are sexualised anyway, not sure why they had to go all PC and chop her tits off and take away her sass and short shorts.

>>252131 said, it is not a reboot of the sitcom. It is based on the comics and thus darker and more serious. It still has its funny moments, though, and while it takes note from current series and aesthetics, there is something very "90‘s" about this show. It's all about strong female characters and female solidarity and it's just very magical and a bit disconnected from the real world which I personally love. They don't even use smartphones! And the witches are badass and pretty evil. It reminds me of a less gruesome AHS: Coven and has the perfect amount of scariness. It's a bit like the Monster of the Week shows (such as Buffy) with villains that are not too scary, which is very 90's, too.

That being said, I don't think the show is "SJW propaganda". Yes, SJW topics are addressed in the fist episodes, but it's really just a lazy attempt on appearing to be woke.

Since many anons have criticized the Sabrina reboot for being too SJW, what are your opinions on the new Charmed now that it has been aired? I have only watched one episode so far and I think it's ridiculous. While I defended Sabrina and thought its SJW elements were bearable, Charmed is really over the top. There is nothing magical about it, too, it only focuses on feminist topics and the writing is incredibly bad. I'm embarrassed for the writers; and I actually share most of their opinions on feminism. But the way they process it is just cringeworthy. I miss old Charmed and while it was not the most diverse show, its feminism definitely was more natural and less forced.

>>324312This is the problem I have. Not everything has to be diverse. Forced diversity is what is killing us. Look at shows like Sabrina. I want to like it, but the trans thing is too much.
The original Charm had a lot of good things going for it. I remember loving the drama and magic, and how the sisters stuck together through thick and thin. It had a great message that anyone could take home and my sister and i are from PR. Good writing is always better than shitty writing with diversity. Look at how the new mass effect suffered from that when it was fine.

>>324350Pikachu’s fur texture looks awful especially on his tail. It looks exactly like a stuffed animal. Maybe they were going for that? The rest of the Pokémon don’t look any better. Apparently, they hired that realistic Pokémon artist who’s popular on Reddit for this movie. I never liked his art because the Pokémon he draws all look grotesque and completely lose the spirit of their original forms.
Despite how ugly the Cg looks to me, I still want to watch it because it’s a ridiculous live action Pokémon movie. I never thought something like this would happen. I just hope this movie is not bad in a way that’s boring.

>>324542its easier to pander this way than to actually develop well written poc characters with their own stories
they know people will go see it because of nostalgia, rather than their claim of not putting a poc in their own original storyline because they wont make a profit from it

>>204139>>204136Thats what I don't get about this "progressive" stuff, is how closet racist and sexist it seems.
"Oh hey guys heres a new powerpuff girl, shes black, no biggie, but shes a kindergarder with a thick booty and loses her temper! she also wears a colored weave!"
Same thing with Ghostbusters, its like the try and pull the most 1930's black caricature actor and tell them to act super low class.
Then the new Lara Croft, despite killing hundreds of men, and some with her bare hands, she still talks to herself and has sobbing fits. wtf.
I'm convinced everyone that publicly announces how anti-racist or how feminist or how anti-rape they are. Are the exact opposite.

>>225192sage bc this post is old, but they weren't trying to pander to sjws, they were trying to pander to the adults who were teens when heathers came out aka boomers who think SJWs and minorities are the devil, but also tried to
market it to SJWs to try and double up on views.
Which, backfired horribly.

>>225180i still can’t get over the fact that heather chandler in the reboot looks exactly like martha dumptruck from the original (but on tumblr stereoids). you know, the girl heather chandler maliciously bullied for being obese and conventionally unattractive? i fail to see the purpose of this irony when it’s so damn unrealistic for this heather chandler to hold the same position as the original. martha dumptruck in makeup and a faux fur would still get curbstomped by the high school climate because it’s fucking brutal; that’s part of what made the original heathers so fantastic because it didn’t sugarcoat it in the least.
also how dare they make my girl heather duke a fugly freaky dude i will never forgive them

>>326700OT but ugh, gen x are not boomers. gen x were the first to hate the boomers, however. heathers is a great movie about gen x'ers and is better than the john hughes shitfests.
