i didn’t see that mentioned anywhere,

@Thanotos Omega
 
I was saying that I don’t trust Weisman to continue his own work anymore after what happened with that.

@Jarkes  
ahh, yeah totes agree and i don’t even watch that show but i heard about the whole one token minority to rule them all who also get’s brutally killed over and over because of her powers,

I remember when the trailer for Thundercats Roar! first dropped, Gargoyles was subjected to a godawful redesign as a parody of that.

@TheHappySpaceman  
There was a lot of that parody, because it was a showing they will do the same to everything.

@Cyborg_pony  
Nothing is sacred in the world of C A P I T A L I S M .

@TheHappySpaceman  
It’s not even about capitalism.
 
Look at Marvel, Star Wars, Star Trek! They’re not making money, they don’t care! They’re just doing it for their own ego.
 
There was that guy that bragged about “ruining childhood” because he could, can and will. They hold zero respect for what came before. Mostly because they’ll get a paycheck and then move on to something else.

@Cyborg_pony  
In fairness, the Marvel movies are still pretty good.
 
And some have some have some respect for old properties, the Sonic movie was made by those that cared about the franchise, and it’s doing well.

@Cyborg_pony
 
I’m pretty sure that particular guy was joking, but some people really do act like that, yeah.

@Beau Skunky  

 
The vast majority of them are, anyway…although I’m not holding my breath for anything they’ll produce after Endgame.

@Jarkes  
I’ve seen the same attitude reverberated, and given his… accomplishments I feel that guy was being honest. Which is all too big an occurrence in entertainment.
 
@Lord Goku  
Phase 4’s gonna be a disaster! Every character people cared about are dead or replaced. You got the she-hulk writer attacking south park, like a conservative from the 90s!
 
It’s not looking good.

@Cyborg_pony  
and nobody outside comic fans gave a shit about any marvel characters outside of spider man and x-men when the MCU started fuck not even comic fans really cared out teams like TGOTG before the movie.

@Lord Goku  
Spider-man happened after endgame.

@Background Pony #6C4D
 
thanks for telling me.

@Angrybrony  
Hell, people outright hated Iron Man, and he was pretty much universally regarded as a boring fascist. (admittedly coming off one of the most controversial and unflattering arcs in his history didn’t help)

@Philweasel  
Ah yes, that one time Tony Stark killed the AI version of himself that he set up in case he ever turned into “this”. The good Tony, as one would say.
 
Oh and then he scammed the entire West Coast with nanobots he poured into the water supply that reconfigures their physical attributes (aka making everyone into hotties) but placed it behind a ridiculously-priced subscription.
 
Jesus that whole arc was a mess.

@igotnopicks  
Far From Home was still part of the MCU’s third phase, IIRC. I still have yet to see the MCU Spidey films, though.

@Scrabbleman  
@Philweasel  
Yeesh, that happened in the comics? That seems to be turning Tony Stark into more of a villain then a hero.
 
I know comic books are supposed to be weird or even shocking sometimes, (heck, you’d be surprised to know even the Sonic the Hedgehog comics went through a weird/gritty phase) but that’s a bit much, and almost as cringy as Captain America fighting tea-partiers, or suddenly becoming a Hydra agent. Even the movie kinda referenced/made fun of that Hydra bit.
 
@Angrybrony  
I don’t know, you’d be surprised at how many obscure characters have fans, even before the movies.
 
Heck, I’m not a big Marvel fan, but I liked Ego the living planet, even before he appeared in GOTG2.

Remember when GWAR did the music for an episode of Kids Next Door, and it was awesome?

@Background Pony #6B08  
They did the music for the ’90s Beavis & Butthead SuperNES & Sega Genesis games, I hear.

Disney has a new CEO. Are we headed towards another Disney dark age? Disney seems to go in cycles. They have a great period, (30s-50s), then they go through a dark age, (60s-80s,) then they have another great period (90s), then another dark age (2000s).

@Background Pony #6B08  
Truthfully, I still liked alot of Disney’s “dark age” stuff. (Robin Hood, Oliver & Co., ect.)
 
Also, shouldn’t the late-2000s/early-2010s be considered another great period? (Princess and the Frog, Tangled, Frozen, Wreck it Ralph, Toy Story 3, Inside-Out, Coco, ect.)

@Background Pony #6B08  
I find it most bizarre that they’re both called Bob.
 
And honestly he’s been the senior executive of almost all of Disney’s major components and has obviously been groomed for the position, so likelihood is you’ve already seen any changes he was going to make.
 
But seriously, Bob Iger took an ailing company and turned into a fucking titan of nerd entertainment, that honestly at some points produced like… 70% of my TV and movie consumption over the year. He’s almost seventy now, and I’m going to forgo any speculation on the future to wish him a happy retirement.

@Background Pony #6B08  
I think you are jumping the gun WAY to quick on this.
 
Like the guy hasn’t even done anything yet.

I’m more interested in foreign animated films like Ernest and Celestine and Song of the Sea than Disney movies.
 
I think I’m becoming an animation hipster.
