this is what i meant when i said he's a grifter. guy just panders to the somehow still living anti-sjw crowd. its impossible to know how much of that poo poo he really believes b/c he's a huge coward.


his debate with destiny, another guy who might not actually have any real beliefs, was pretty funny. destiny made him retreat on pretty much every point he made.
imo it's immaterial if he really believes in it because he relies on and fosters an audience that absolutely does.

Genuinely amazing to see people mad about the new thundercats for... making a show that copies the style of other contemporary popular kids shows. What next a transformers show with a tie in toy line??? Why cant things be how they were in the 80s?!?

That one wasn't entirely unjustified; The preview video rang more as "I want to do a contemporary popular kids cartoon that'll be popular and I like Thundercats", than just "I want to make a new Thundercats cartoon" given the relatively drama-oriented nature of the original show and previous reboot. Still good for the guy getting to make his own show and all, just that negative fan response isn't entirely unjustified in this instance.

I mean there are tons of reasons to pre-dunk on Smith but if there is one thing he can do it's 80's pop culture stuff so yea I'm willing to give him a fair shake to see what he can do.

Tbh I wouldn't mind a Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated style blend of genuine action/plot with self aware gags and all, and that's something firmly in Smith's wheelhouse, so if he just does that I'll call it a win.

I'm also being a bit preformatively harsh on him here. Dude directed a couple of episodes of The Flash and Supergirl and they were some of the best stuff either show has done. Dude's perfectly fine on a per-item basis, it's just in the aggregate he's kind of... Kevin Smith.

yea I will confess on the whole I probably like more of Smith's output than I don't if we're counting comics and episodes of shows and all, he's just...so easy to dunk on...

It is not a great betrayal that the toy comercial you liked as a kid is now targeting children who buy toys with a thing just like all the other shows they seem to enjoy is the point I'm trying to make. Let the kids have their goofy fun jokes show your goofy fun drama show from the 80s won't stop existing.

Oh yeah, I totally agree it existing isn't some great offense. Just that the original video has the creator walk through it all like "I liked Thundercats as a kid, I get what made it good, I'm making this as a show for Thundercats fans" and the fanbase that he's supposedly addressing replying "No you didn't" isn't really an unexpected response.

At the end, when Woolie has been fully destroyed by the reality of the game, Minh pulls off the mask and reveals that he actually loving hates the game and thinks it's trash. He only pretended to like the game so that he could inflict it upon Woolie.

Pixel Dan did an interview with him, and he almost literally said he won't "Kevin Smith" it up. This was at a He-Man convention and it was nice of him to imply Pixel Dan was a bigger star than him there.
