You're telling me sports injuries are real in Looney Tunes but you can get an anvil dropped on you, sandwich into an accordion and be just fine :05 later? The trend of making female characters more "respectable" by reducing the size of their boobs is not great, imo.

One gains a deep appreciation for how capitalism works when one takes time to think about how many thousands of dollars of labour hours were spent determining the rabbit's ideal fuckability.

I assume it was a pretty quick discussion. Some executive said "We don't want viral tweets about how our cartoon rabbit is problematic"

Probably as much thought went into the Lola Bunny decision as went into the Sonic the Hedgehog movie character design.

Anonymous Robot posted:They just made bugs beige lol That was actually a major concern when they were first making Space Jam. Bugs dressed in drag all the time in the old cartoons, so if they made Lola look too much like Bugs they worried audiences might think she was Bugs in drag. The standard eyelashes and bow additions that normally make a cartoon animal a girl wouldn't work. Her very curvaceous silhouette was the solution. But now they don't want clickbait articles about exploitative cartoon boobs, and presumably Lola is established enough as a character in her own right, so they can just do eyelashes and and a bow .

Although I will say there were people who were angry they made the Dark Queen no longer sexy in the latest Battletoads game which confounded me because they gave her an actual personality and made her a real character that was well performed and it was great. Eh, you give and you take I guess. Hopefully they do justice to the cartoons.

James Cameron walked by the department and told the artist "make sure people wanna gently caress that rabbit!"

Bugs in drag was always hotter than Lola anyways. If they've desexualized Lola there better be a scene with Bugs in a dress.

Have we considered that young girls would like characters that they can identify with, and that serving their interests is more important than providing masturbation material for their fathers?

The original didn't either, they literally just changed what she's wearing so it's not a belly shirt and she's got spandex shorts under her other shorts. edit: Debbie Does Dagon posted:Have we considered that young girls would like characters that they can identify with, and that serving their interests is more important than providing masturbation material for their fathers?

It seems slightly odd that the director somewhat implies here that having a lisp makes you less human, but the gist seems to be that he wants to focus on Lola as an inspirational relatable leader figure. https://ew.com/movies/space-jam-new-legacy-lola-bunny/ quote:When Space Jam: A New Legacy director Malcolm D.

Are cartoon rabbits too sexy, or not sexy enough? The answer may surprise you

Are we honestly discussing a cartoon rabbit's mastectomy here? It's no one's business but hers. So how about showing a little more respect? If not for Lola, then for yourselves.

Goddamn I hate negotiating cast deals. Lawyers and agents have always got such an inflated perception of their clients’ worth and the numbers are ridiculous. What would be a large sum of money for most people is looked down in as a low fee for 8 weeks or so of work. The figures are unmoored from reality. They have become numbers to play with, not actual sums of money.

The Klowner posted:gently caress movies I'm glad Lola Bunny is now a proud, independent, desexualized piece of cross promotional content for the Warner Brother stable of intellectual properties. This is going to be very good for little girls who will finally have a cartoon rabbit they can aspire to be.

When they made that Herbie the Lovebug remake with Lindsay Lohan they CGIed her breasts smaller because people thought her natural look was obscene. Hand Knit posted:One gains a deep appreciation for how capitalism works when one takes time to think about how many thousands of dollars of labour hours were spent determining the rabbit's ideal fuckability. Every single film version of Superman had whole groups of people having lengthy and serious discussion about how his bulge is supposed to look and multiple costume designs in an attempt to make it look like he's got a dick but not too much of a dick or to round of a bulge or too pointy of a bulge. All this when they could have just put a dance belt on the actors and be done with it. Fun piece of trivia, Christopher Reeve was wearing a metal codpiece under his costume and he started to get pissed off at Margot Kidder when she wouldn't stop flicking it because she thought the sound was funny.

Yeah get at me whenever because I've been dying to go see some poo poo at the Brattle. It's probably the one thing I miss the most. So that'll be one of the first things I do when it's possible. I've already met one of you assholes (he knows who he is!) in meat space and it was fun.
