We went from Ultra Instinct Shaggy being practically canon to Norville literally willing to sell his organs so he can use the money to simp for Velma and blackmail her into dating him. Yeah, it's that bad.
"The OG Daphne had no character and was just there to be hot, unlike our version"
Immediately sexualizes her because sex sells.
Is it weird that they call out anime for sexualizing high school kids but then defend shows like "Velma" who do the same thing or is it just me?
As a Green Lantern fan, I'd just like to say🤮
Totally accurate with that ending. The writers clearly don't know how GL works or anything else about the Justice League.😡
Tell me you don't know anything about The Little Mermaid without telling me you don't know anything about the little mermaid.
They're directing this movie and they are so clueless. Stop trying to fix things that aren't broken. Nothing about the OG scene implied he was forceful.
For the record, Filmation used rotoscoping. He-man, Skeletor and yes, Teela are all real people drawn over. Here's an image of the team and actors. It's ironic that they said they wanted to make Revelation more "realistic" when they already are realistic.
Guarantee this wouldn't have happened if they had been upfront about what masters of the universe revelation was from the beginning. They can't just promise He-man and not deliver.
They showed a lost boy from the movie in the convention hall scene and he was still a child. They didn't explain why Peter aged but other toons including from the Disney movie didn't age. So I can't help but feel like this was intentional. So messed up.
Snow White is a considerate person who doesn't think it's fair for her to have room and board without compensation even though as a princess she has the power to do that. In the remake it seems like she is enforcing her authority which I think is out of character for her imo.
Here I made a side by side comparison of the OG Snow White 'Whistle While You Work' song VS Disney's new version with Rachel Zegeler...see if you can spot the glaring differences for an "updated modern audience"
So I just saw the Chip n' Dale movie and the bad guy was Peter Pan. They literally ripped Bobby Driscoll's story but instead of him ending up dead he becomes a bad guy who kidnaps other toons. Screw this movie.
He's innocent but why make him look incompetent when in the last episode he is shown to be able to catch a freaking paper cutter in midair and take off a kid's leg. Fred defended Velma from murder charges and this is how she repaid him. Why wasn't he charged for the leg thing?
@Tawessthemee
You mean Dexstar? He's awesome and a red lantern who's angry about the murder of his owner and being shoved into a bag and thrown into a river. You can't compare this shlock to Dexstar.
@CartoonsZany
I think a lot about this ended up being kind of racist or at least in poor taste. Although I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't know Daphne has done martial arts based on the way they described her.
I don't understand how anyone can watch that scene and think Eric is forcing himself on Ariel. She's actively trying to kiss him and he was the one shying away. What is up with people? Have they not seen the Little Mermaid? How do they miss the mark this badly?
Disney changed "Kiss the Girl" to include consent.
“There are some lyric changes in “Kiss the Girl” because people have gotten very sensitive about the idea that [Prince Eric] would, in any way, force himself on [Ariel].
I hated this scene so much. It just highlights everything wrong with Velma's character. She has a complete lack of humanity. Everyone is freaking out and she's celebrating and twerking over the corpse after she said twerking wasn't for her in an earlier episode.
@david2vec
All this comic proves is that you know nothing about Batman. He does all those things and more. What's with all these ice-cold takes on Batman?
You wanna know what I find the most frustrating about Wish?
That they were SO CLOSE to having some amazing concepts in the movie
Such as a romance between Asha and a magic star boy
And the first ever evil couple in Disney history
But nah, they just scrapped it.
They harass artists for drawing the characters based off the original (ergo not whitewashing), people are accused of these things for simply questioning the show and yesterday someone said they wished we'd been miscarried for saying bullying is wrong. Yeah, it's pretty toxic.
We don't hate She-ra. We think it had a lot of potential that it didn't get to live up to. Which is what we talk about in our videos. And then there's the horrible "pick me" garbage. Because women aren't allowed to have different opinions from the status quo. It's sexist!
HBO Velma: "Have you noticed pilot episodes always have more sex and nudity than the rest of the series?"
The rest of the series.
Hypocrisy and sexualization of minors. Good job with that one HBO/s
@kkenzielong
*Stolen by a mother and then they smeared the original doll as a "sex toy prostitute" actually. At least Bratz were original but Mattel also demanded ownership over them even though they turned down the pitch for them.
I'm not against putting this body type in games but shaming another body type is not positive. There was nothing wrong with the first body type or costume. It wasn't sexualized. They basically said being fit = sexualized. Don't shame one group to prop up another.
We did a review on this comic back in the day. It's a really bad comic that is everything wrong with modern political satire on the level of Velma and the New Norm. I wish I was kidding.
Left: concept peices to a superman cartoon that was turned down
Right: a superman cartoon that looks like all other cartoons out right now thanks to repetitive charavter design and characteristics.
This is why corporations are not your friends
@GrumpyCatterman
This whole us vs them mentality is holding everyone back. Women's spaces have absolutely been gutted and erased. Properties like Disney princesses are accused of being problematic and have to be fixed. These attitudes aren't productive.
Avatar: These ancient and sacred martial arts are the foundation of our cultures and philosophical beliefs. This power came from understanding nature and your spiritual inclination.
Korra: It's just super powers. You asked a giant turtle and just got powers, simple as that.
It is weird that all the marketing is focusing on He-man but the show has been confirmed to center on Teela. Then they get mad when people worry it's a bait and switch. They know they're selling it on the He-man. It's just scummy in the end.
People throwing shade at those cautious about Masters of the Universe, the fact that Teela isn't in phase 1 of the toy line and most of the promotional material shows more of He-Man gives people the right to be cautious. The fact Kevin Smith can't shut up makes things worse.
@Tawessthemee
What are you talking about non sentient? There's a planet GL and a math equation GL. Again, Dexstar is a red lantern that is powered by hate, not will. KS being a shark is not the problem, it's that his character shouldn't allow him to weild a green ring.
This doesn't feel like Batman at all. Even in the comic crossover he was trying to ignore his future sight because he knew he'd lost it and didn't want to become reliant on super powers. idk how I feel about this. Also, where's the mask?
I finally got blocked by Slott after being able to dodge the block chain. I will never understand why they keep lying about She-Hulk being comic accurate. Just say they were doing their own thing with the character because the comic didn't fit the vibe. Just own it.
They didn't use the mob hit origin Stan Lee made for her, they made her a derivative of her cousin, Titania is just some nuisance instead of having a great backstory, Leap-Frog was just a spoiled rich brat instead of trying to make up for his father's mistakes, etc.
Seriously? What is it with this trend of taking children's properties and making them adult? Have we learned nothing from Transformers? Who looks at Barney and thinks, "yeah, that needs to be adult"
Chill, Hollywood!
I totally agree with this. Also, when they try to redeem someone who did much worse than Zuko ever did. Like a character may be a genocidal murderer but because they had a sad backstory people try to make excuses for the evil they did. Trauma doesn't justify traumatizing others.
I hate Zuko's redemption arc, because it's really good, but everyone who talks about it or tries to replicate don't understand why. They'll make a character with childhood trauma and think that them healing from that trauma, usually through friendship or a love interest, will
This is just being willfully ignorant of the story's themes and ideas. I mean, Gaston is basically the embodiment of pride while beast went through a character arc that made him a better person and worthy of Belle. Be serious.
Gaston was a village hero
He provided food, rejected thots for a respectable women, wanted to start a family, died protecting the village from a Werewolf and his Stockholm syndrome prisoner.

Boruto's most overpowered character finally makes her anime debut, as episode
#287
of the Naruto sequel opens the Code Arc by introducing Eida, the cyborg woman with the power to make anyone instantly fall in love with her.
I've been rewatching she-ra , because someone asked me for a review, the thing i still cant believe is that that one flashback in s4 that reveals that catra has always been a clingy sociopathic cunt that nearly tore one of Adora's eyes out was supposed to endear us to her.
@TheJCGreen
Why would Ursula look panicked. She thought she was invulnerable and didn't see the ship coming. Also, a mermaid steering the ship just seems silly. Besides, Ariel wouldn't know how to sail. Plus Eric killing Ursula showed Triton not all humans are bad. It was important.
"Don't you get it? It's not for you. You had your show and it's over now so you should just get over it. They're trying something new for a new audience. That's a good thing."
-Amazon, probably.
She-Hulk, Velma, DC, etc. The industry needs to stop being hung up on making fun of criticism and just write better stories. There would be less criticism that way. This is just pathetic.
Having touched on video essays and commentary vids pushing agitprop if not outright misinfo, here's one from
@mjtannertwins
that's done properly.
If anything, they not only all but predicted the New Norm Show, but underscore how relying on spite and outrage is a fool's errand.
Yeah, that scene was pretty obvious about her intentions. She never really cared about Adora's wants and needs, just demanded she do whatever Catra wanted or suffer. smh.
I see some Catra stans deny she was in her right mind when she almost tried to destroy the world or just say she didn't actually want to. But here it is blatantly spelled out that yes she would rather destroy the world than let Adora win. Again a big reason why she is hated.
Kevin Smith deserves a lot of the blame for this disaster, but we can't forget that Mattel allowed this to happen. What made them think this was the direction to take this franchise?
"Creator"
That's pretty disrespectful to the actual creators of She-ra. Especially after they ignored Larry Ditillio's passing until the day S2 premiered. They could have said showrunner to the reboot specifically instead. Just saying.
It's like they're going out of their way to butcher these characters. What did Fred do to deserve any of this? Every decision this show makes is the wrong one.
Barbie has always been pretty inclusive as a brand., even in the 60s. Whether they were variants of Barbie or friends of hers. But many still see Barbie as a dumb blonde bimbo who props up the patriarchy that must be corrected.
It's the Lion King all over again. Remove all the personality and charm from the animation for the sake of hyper realism pretending to be live action. Imagine this little crab singing Under the Sea.
Yep. I've been accused of the same things. Got called a b!tch and told that I support domestic violence all for questioning the Barbie movie. It's ridiculous.
@starlightmau
Hi. I just want to say that I am so, so sorry for what I said. I fucked up. This was the image I was referring to, an inside joke with the crew that I didn't think twice about. It was exceedingly careless and I'm sorry for the hurt I caused.
Why do they remake these movies when they clearly never got them to begin with? What part of Tinkerbell glows? She's a fairy! All of her glows! Why Disney? Why?
Peter Pan & Wendy director David Lowery explains why Tinker Bell doesn't glow in the film. "Where's the light actually coming from? Do her wings light up?"
More details here:
This scene doesn't work. It may be realistic but they're superheroes. Hyper realism doesn't fit this genre. People get thrown into walls all the time and get back up.
Also, Damian is a trained assassin since birth. I don't think he would be this unprofessional or stupid.
You can say that again. It's fine to like both shows but of course they have to resort to slut shaming and lying about the OG. The OG show used rotoscoping so they were realistic! Oh, and they weren't teens. Sex-charged power fantasy my foot! Hypocrites. 😡
So Nu-ra wants a movie. If it happens they NEED to have Catra, Hordak, and also Entrapta save Angella. She deserved better and Catra and Hordak weren't properly redeemed for their MANY awful actions. Also, good animation and answers to all the questions would be nice. Thanks.
I agree. I've seen people say stuff like that before. Like men shouldn't be writing "girly" properties and women shouldn't be writing "boyish" properties. I guess it's a "stay in your lane" kind of thing? It's really weird though. As long as the series is enjoyable, who cares?
@mjtannertwins
@kkenzielong
Also, why would it be bad for it to have been created by a Man?
Monster High, Miraculous Ladybug and Winx Club were created by men but are insanely beloved by Women.
I know anime isn't the same as toys but many Shonens have been created by Women (FMA, Inuyasha, Demon Slayer).
The twist was so stupid. It was Fred's mom all along which I guess tracks due to her race and class but still. Apparently she didn't want Fred to go to jail, she just wanted to kill him. Thanks for nothing
@hbomax
Velma deserves all the hate it gets.
Shouldn't kid's shows have higher standards since kids are impressionable? Especially from a show that claims they want to influence kids specifically? Just saying.
It's so concerning how people will dismiss all the red flags and abuse from Catra to Adora throughout their lives. How can anyone see the flashback in corridors and ignore the red flags. She was so possessive and demanded Adora not have any other friends. That's abuse!
The kid flashback would disagree with you. Seriously, how are these people so dense when it comes to this show. When it comes to Naruto they rightfully point out how abusive Sasuke is to Sakura and they shouldn't not have gotten together but not Catra and Adora.
I don't know why Mattel lets them badmouth their franchises like this. People have loved this brand for over half a century and they reduce it to this. Barbie doesn't deserve this.
'Soulless, scantily clad dolls'
That's actually really pissed me off.
Barbie is a pop-culture icon who was an outlet for me when I wasn't allowed to express my femininity as a kid. Her and her movies were a massive source of comfort, and to reduce her to that is disgusting.
How is killing the billionaire going to change the companies practices? Someone else is going to take over as CEO. The companies don't stop existing just because the CEO is murdered. Why do people jump to violence instead of convincing people to change polices?
