Uh, okay.
Did you see the Aeon Flux movie? Fucking trash, lol. The show was good though, or I remember it as such.

Only slop is produced today so younger autists can only obsess over garbage like The Loud House to use as a sexual outlet.

TRVKE

losers used to be losers but now losers are bigger losers and judged by less losery losers while both are seen as just losers by normal people

aaaaaaaaaaaa people are knowledgeable in a niche topic STOP!!

The nerds that you're talking about still exist, they just bailed from twitter and have a blog with an RSS feed and/or a fedi instance that doesn't federate with the HOA instances.

>>694342 (me)
Like the nerds into the obscure thing are simply themselves also obscure now.

>>694319
Truke is that even normies are losers.

>>694346
The only winners are rich men with a stable of sex partners

>>694342
>blog with an RSS feed and/or a fedi instance
lol op's main point is that its all boomers now because animation as a field has gotten babyfied

animation is expensive, why would capitalists invest in niche adult animation when they could make basic sitcom animations like Bob's Burgers and Smiling Friends?

the black woman with hands for feet is sus racism lol

>>694421
>Bob's Burgers
Peaked in the first episode and every episode after was more watered down than the last until turning into a family-friendly show.

Even the original author hated it.

>The creator of Æon Flux, Peter Chung, gave an interview to the "Monican Spies" community on LiveJournal in 2006. He was asked many questions about Æon Flux and her universe, including how he really felt about the movie. Chung called the movie "a travesty", relating that its public screening made him feel "helpless, humiliated, and sad". He described his primary objection to the film as being its portrayal of the Æon and Trevor characters and their re-imagined history and relationship. Chung went on to state, "Ms. Flux does not actually appear in the movie."

>Muh slop

>Kids these days

>Autists

>Sexual outlet

Damn, we really are hitting the buzzwords today.

>>694459
do you run a keyword search or does your brain automatically light up whenever age is even just mentioned

>>694308
What's so bad about Loud House?

>>694295
Imagine being so obsessed about animation as an adult for a nostalgic identity.

We see more people obsessing over Family Guy, South Park, Rick & Morty, and their ilk.

>>694462
Do you guys call everything "slop"?

>>694466
>Imagine being so obsessed about animation as an adult for a nostalgic identity.
<literally mentions cult classics of adult animation cinema
Stop barging into discussions about shit you know nothing about just to sperg out about "ageism", fucktard.

>>694468
No you need to stop getting pissy over everything being "slop".

Also calling "cult classics" as Family Guy, South Park,and Rick & Morty?

You didn't even try.

>>694468
>cult classics
ah yes, the cult classic family guy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

>>694411
I don't really get the generational angle but I think the reason they'd only see boomers left is they're not digging to find the obscure nerds into obscure animation.
Also there's some boomers in the RSS / fedi space, they're not as tech illiterate as the memes would paint them.

>>694466
A lot of lolisho artists on Baraag and Pixiv are into Loud House for some reason. It's style doesn't really lend itself to that but they manage.

>>694481
Because Loud House is just a family oriented cartoon not unlike Fosters Home For Imaginary Friends

>>694421
>the black woman with hands for feet is sus racism
Agreed, and it's a shame cause I'd totally have that body mod.

wish animators would read more so their insane creative skills isnt wasted on surface level psychologisms or maybe i just wish they could make better stories GRAHHH

>>694575
first waves of animators used to read and watch good films (for obvious reasons) but recent animators feel like theyve only watched baby stuff

>>694576
Animation was a much more expensive and exhaustive field back then so people who do enter it are either aesthetes (crank) or people who are already involved with other fields like literature

Democratization of art caused by the emergence of photography destroyed this. Now every random Joe can enter the field of art and since they're normies their concern relates usually to normie stuff like existentialism, sex, depression, unfulfillment, etc which is offensive to the palate of Aesthetes. You think bluey is kiddie stuff? The old Artists would think that most adult literature are borderline offensively childish since the themes (i.e my poly relationship collapsed because i fell in love with one of my partners but then he ghosted me) revolve around the same old normie themes that also appeared in kiddy shows, such as desire for recognition and heartbreak

This is the reason why "modern art" is so weird from our perspective. This whole shit about plastering bananas in walls is a direct middle finger by artists against the shallow emotionalism of plebeian art. Also why they all go into surrealism; this is all desire to find a platonic beauty ideal
