Glitterbomber posted:Yea can anyone with better knowledge of the system explain the point of it? It feels like it's a network shooting themselves in the foot by actively avoiding long running brand recognition. Blah blah doo doo syndication numbers increasing everyone's salary. And when you look at it from the perspective of "After we hit 80/100 episodes, every subsequent one is gonna cost us double what we were previously paying" it's actually pretty logical and smart to run a hard cap on series.

Union contracts, plus actors realize that every episode they're working on is just for syndication (i.e. it puts tons of money in the studio's pocket) and usually force a contract renegotiation.

MrAristocrates posted:What about that doesn't sound amazing "ooh it has lesbians!!!" sounds to me like a bunch of goons jerking themselves off over how progressive and enlightened they are over a kid's show as opposed to realizing that lesbians exist literally everywhere and it's weird and creepy to treat people's sexuality like some liberal version of Pokemon aka the adventure time defense

# ¿ May 25, 2015 20:42 |

the point you are mistaking, probably intentionally, is that goons sure do love to bring up and talk about lesbian characters esp in fiction under the auspices of "progressiveness" when really what they're doing is 1) fueling a fetish that 2) gives them the moral high ground to make posts about how it's all about the grander representation in media when they couldn't really give less of a poo poo because boy do they love posting about lesbians!!! again, adventure time reducing a character to their token sexuality is 1) creepy 2) completely missing the overall aims of representation of different sexualities in media and fetishizing only one aspect of a character 3) probably indicative that the character themselves is nothing to write home about outside of some gimmick like their sexuality being not heteronormative if you were to take the posts in AT or the SU threads and replace the word "lesbian" with the word "black" it'd put a finer point on how the "progressive" tack is really just a way for goons to cloak their obsession with lesbians

That aspect of SU was only revealed recently and all of the characters were an awesome and overall likable bunch. That whole lesbian thing is minor but it is there but it's also easy to enjoy the show without it. you know what this is maybe the first post i've read that doesn't come off as haughty entitled "i'm more enlightened than you" defense of the fact they post about lesbians all the goddamn time, so I'll cede the point

Also the realization is that ATLA was never really that good in the first place, with stuff like Aang meeting a magical frog who allows him to bypass the whole moral conundrum of "should i kill, even when it's justified? even when if i don't then everyone will die because the person I'm fighting has no morals to appeal to?" energy bending was loving stupid and a loving stupid concept to even play with in the first place because ATLA is a show for kids and they'd never actually show the main character murdering the main antagonist in cold blood, but built the entirety of season 3 around having aang have this deep-seated moral conundrum which the show then completely cheapened by instituting a magical loving frog that magically gave aang a pacifistic option that solved everything like, the show couldn't and shouldn't have ended with aang killing the fire emperor, but it also should've recognized that by storytelling instead of setting up a binary "either aang kills the emperor or the emperor destroys the world! which is which?! OH WAIT NEVER MIND HERE'S A THIRD OPTION THAT MAGICALLY SOLVES EVERYTHING" been more flexible, you can't set up an "Either A or B Has to Happen" series climax then go "well, actually, C happened", it's poo poo storytelling there's also stuff like season 3 introducing that aang can't fall in love and keep his avatar powers, emphasizing the theme of self-sacrifice the murder moral conundrum exemplified (what is aang willing to do to stop evil? kill and give up the love of his life?) and then the show inexplicably pairing up aang and katara anyways literally just to please the shippers, ATLA sold out its stakes every step of the way in the final season korra took all of those problems and exemplified it, and it's why it's so poo poo, it was based on a universe that already sold out its own narrative just, well, just cause and pulled the same narrative tricks over and over and over and over again

I think the "oh, Korra season 1 just didn't have enough time" allegation is silly because it implies that season one of ATLA was some perfectly conceived and executed thing when it was tonally incoherent and absolutely full of chaff episodes that didn't nothing to further the story or deepen the characters Like Atla season 1 could've directly benefited from a restricted episode count, because with 20 it felt narratively loose and creatively unfocused a ton of the time In all honestly Atla season 2 was the only season worthy of the hype the show, in general, gets (season 3 ends the show fairly badly and has that whole section of "zuko hangs out with exactly one person on team avatar" episodes that was mechanically a mess, season 1 is loose and Tonally jarring) and everyone ascribes its qualities to the season preceding and following it

yeah, why should anyone complain about a cartoon's politics literally being "there are a specific, minority group of elite people, a one percent if you will, who are naturally better than you just by virtue of their birth and if you push for equality for the common people you're in fact worse than them because of the methods you use revealing your hypocrisy" i mean i agree there's like a billion things i'd criticize in korra first but its specific insight and perspective is p insipid, inherently flawed, and charged within this political climate and it's pretty loltastic when you think about what it says about the rights or lack thereof of the common people again, i end up not giving a poo poo mostly because i ascribe its really bad, dumb idiot views to the people running the show being terrible storytellers over right-wing neocons or some poo poo, hanlon's razor and all that, i just think it's funny that it tries to literally put Anonymous/OWS in the show for, i dunno, cultural relevancy or something and didn't think through how to handle it or give its arguments respect at all it's like i imagine the pitch meeting for it was "but what if...benders were BAD???" "oh man, that's some good morally ambiguous poo poo right there dude, yeah put that poo poo in" "but they're good, right? i mean, our main character and basically everyone she associates with is a bender" "oh, yeah, totes, but wouldn't it be sweet as hell if we asked the question"

It cannot be overstated how huge of a money-printing machine sonic is The only weird thing about sonic honestly is that they keep on trying to appeal to their more venerated fans Like soniccycle.jpg only exists because sega approaches their golden ip where they keep trying to rehabilitate sonics image before being lazy worthless fucks and half-assing it yet again Honestly I don't know why they do this, they build what are essentially brand new engines for their games they use once or twice before redesigning everything again or switching developers for no loving reason Honestly if I was segas CEO I would annualize the gently caress out of sonic, focus super heavily on the cartoon tie-ins and lean even more heavy on the mythos while simultaneously making it even more of a shameless DBZ ripoff Yeah sure gently caress it add hundreds of new furry friends for sonic to interact with, just make it all one completely shameless crash grab supported by some smaller dev house turning out annual sonic games made on the cheap with the exact same mediocre engine year in and out that are all of the same lower quality, bolstered by the fact that sonics dumb fuckin face is plastered everywhere Rerelease sonics 1-3 all the loving time so kids get essentially suckered in by exposure to both the "good" stuff (sonic 3 and knuckles was the only good one tbh) and the dumb cartoons and poo poo and because kids are morons they'll buy the games and the dolls and the comics and whatever the gently caress else sega dangles in front of their faces that has sonics face on it It's the fact that sega makes a token effort with sonic that makes it so weird when they could and at this point probably should treat sonic like a licensed property like spongebob that only exists to make money hand over fist by essentially ripping off 8-year-olds NieR Occomata fucked around with this message at 09:46 on Jul 15, 2015 |
