So with Samurai Jack returning and Gravity Falls getting cancelled, is the "comfy" age of animation finally coming to an end?
>>
>Samurai Jack
One show
>GF Ending
SU, SvtfoV, WBB and HB all still exist

So no.

>>78053371
All those shows are going out the door though. Thank you based Genndy.

I think Samurai Jack is overrated. Its plot never moved forward and its protagonist never developed or changed in any meaningful way.

It says that they are completely and utterly unrelated. Not every show that's revived is a phoenix rising from the ashes, nor is every show ended a sick dog being put out of its misery.

I would say Disney condemning it to the premium channel and releasing episodes at random intervals is more reflective of its quality over Hirsch wanting to story to come to a close.

What is so good about SJ? It's not characters because calling those characters flat is an insult to flat characters everywhere. It's not action because it consists entirely of slashing robots in half with only complications being "There are too many robots so Jack is out of breath by the time he cut them all in half" and "The robot is too tough for Jack to cut in half so he has to channel some busido to get strong enough to cut him in half". It's not world because it's devoid of any kind of consistency or thematic coherency.

SJ coming back has nothing to do with GF ending or anything like that. The shows are unrelated as can be.

He wouldn't, at all. Unless Finn and Jake just attack him out of the blue and even then Jack wouldn't hit to kill at first when he sees that Finn is a kid.

This thread is for SJ fans to ask why GF/tumblr fans have such blind loyalty for their show(s), but when the GF fans asked the same of the SJ fags, this was the result.

So, yes. Shitposting the thread.

Nah man Jack wouldn't do that. Don't force your fantasies on people. Jack would either stare at them for a while then continue on his way or go on a quest with the to save the candy people.

Well, I think Jack is one of the few people who can resist the Lich's Command spell. The Lich is based in dnd liches, and the Command spell works only of you fail a Willpower/Wisdom saving throw, which Jack has plenty of both. He's got a magical weapon, high AC, high Con, I think he's got decent chances.
>>

He couldn't resist the Sirens. How would he resist a Word of Power?

Characters don't have to change anon. The character development trope is very overplayed. What makes Jack special is that he never changes in the face of adversity, his resolve never fades, he never loses sight of the goal. Kinda like Batman.

I'm tired of people expecting character development in every show's protagonists. It's like looking at paintings and asking 'Yeah but why isn't there red in this. This needs more red.'.

Samurai Jack doesn't show you that being a pathetic Beta-Fedora-Tron-Edgelord is a good thing, it goes out of it's way to show you that accepting society's view of things is wrong, and that making your own path in life is literally all on you.

Just another pathetic SJW-Otherkin who can't stand manly men, doing masculine things.. Like fixing a problem, instead of bitching about it for god knows how many seasons.

Anon, everyone knows that they just whatch things made by Gendy to FAP. That's why the only thing that this board talks about Dexter and thebTitan shit is milfs and booty dance.

Remove these things, and all od his works are forgetable. Adam Sandler tier, if you know what I mean.

Support media that challenges the Tumblrist view of the world. Directly.
Support comics and cartoons that openly mock the idea of gender fluidity, and multiculturalism.
Support shows like Samurai Jack that build on the masculine interests of young boys, to help them receive a message of strength through identity, individualism, and compassion. All things necessary to building a strong willed, independent thinking, honorable man.

Everything that Tumblr rejects as a whole.

Batman and Superman used to be respected icons of American culture, and male psychology, now they're gay jokes, padded suits, and flavor of the month idols.

Samurai Jack has all those landscape shots, plus plenty of shots with little dialogue. Minus some of the intense action parts, its an extremely comfy show.

Even some of the action parts (like the Three Blind Archers buildup and fight), are nice and cozy

As a whole? No.

Animation is in a funny place right now. Pixar gave us the notion that feels are what make money, and feels alone. We've watched them face plant a few times because of it.

It's very very hard to tear people/studios away from money making schemes, even if they're harmful as a whole to society.

Animation, if it sheds these very strange views of things, can be saved before it ultimately collapses under it's own self righteous weight.

Beavis and Butthead were not popular shows back when they were first airing, however over time they grew more and more influential. I can't tell you how many times Regular Show brought me back to Beavis and Butthead snorting on a couch.

That's not the direction children's animation should be going. It narrows the focus to the type of people who are okay with their kids watching Beavis and Butthead Lite.

Fixing the problem with animation is far more difficult than the morals of the story it tells. It's much deeper. Acceptance is what drives a lot of modern animators and producers.

The best example of a bad idea becoming the staple of something, is The Death of Superman. That is effectively what emotion based logic in screenwriting has done for animated entertainment.

Animators shape the story around what is acceptable to the audience. Which is probably the worst method of story telling in my opinion, especially when dealing with children's entertainment.

Or maybe because /co/ is an island of depressed, socially incompetent and virginal but ever-horny nerds who need to fill the hole in their ghostly lonely and pathetic lives with cartoon porn on a minutely basis. Obviously the normal kids who watched Dexter's Lab decades ago and went on to be well-adjusted and successful at life have fond memories beyond a stylized drawn imitation of a woman because they would have girlfriends of their own, unlike the average /co/mblrite.

I liked the story that Sym-Bionic Titan told, Galaluna alone is a pretty amazing place, to be absolutely honest, I really don't remember any of the characters from it by name, aside from Oculus, because of his strange desire to become an Earthling.
I'm also a huge proponent of Giant Robots, and Giant Robot fandom. Robots vs Kaiju is always a win for me.
As for Dexter, I really only remember Dexter's Dad winning the arm wrestling contest with Big Earl because my uncle's name is Earl and I'm from a country style community up here in Maine, annnnd I respect truckers too, even if they're 12 foot tall maniacs.
Uhm, so, yeah.
The Power Puff girls stuck with me the most because I didn't grow up with gender sterotypes, so seeing girl's with super powers was pretty awesome, especially girls who weren't aliens, or celestial powered whatevers. Good ole American girls, created when a lonely scientist who wanted a family accidentally introduced an unstable chemical into the human goop he was mixing together to create children without having to lower himself to the standard of women like Seduca.

I think as a horny 12 year old I masturbated to Sailor Moon more than Dexter's Mom, and today it's just weird to see them sexualized.

Maybe I'm both of the things you listed? Maybe the majority of the fandom is, hm? Negatives stick with us longer than positives, that's human nature, bruh.

I do.. Beavis and Butthead were not household names until about the beginning of the 2000s while they were steeped in syndication having finished their original run in 1997. They were born on MTV when MTV was just getting it's feet under itself, but still not widely accepted by parents as appropriate for children.
Beavis and Butthead were on a such a late time frame because of their content that most of their target audience was already asleep when it aired. You have to remember, TV programming 24/7 was still very new at the time, it hadn't even been around a whole generation yet.
I know you're young, and full of piss and vinegar, but trust me kid, I was alive and aware when this shit was happening.

That's why it was so popular. It was one of the first controversial cartoons to hit the airwaves. It caused moral panic in the 90s.

There's no suddenly.
For years, like 1-3 so not really that long, there are always people who complain about the word, and then there come people who start overusing it after seeing someone complain about it. Then people who don't ever care about anything start using it seriously or they actually start getting tired of it.
In any case, one or two fucking morons being buttblasted over it does not make it "/co/ having a hate boner", it makes it two morons being buttblasted.

Take for instance Steven Universe.
This show may resonate with today's youth because it emphasizes a use of emotional logic, which Pixar does. Pixar is widely known, and accepted by parents. Steven Universe parrots the narrative with different visuals.

Emotional Logic ignores the factual nature of the world, for what feels good, what feels right, what feels fair. Essentially, breeding a group of people who don't understand that life isn't fair.

Samurai Jack was a story almost entirely shaped around the idea that life isn't fair. Jack didn't get to have a childhood, his mother and father were distant memories to him until he reach adulthood, and by then they had had love and hope beaten out of them.

Steven Universe preaches a story where emotional logic is the rule by which all things in the story are shaped, thus renders the story itself, useless as children's entertainment goes.

You have to understand, every piece of media there is, is feeding information into your mind. Teaching you behaviors, reactions, and methods of reasoning.

Gravit Falls, Steven Universe, Adventure Time, Regular Show, Wonderful World of Gumball, RWBY, Avatar, etc. are all stories told from a base of emotional logic.

Add to that, characters cannot be overtly masculine, or they are made into villains. Remember when Finn found the vikings that fought all the time, and made them change what made them happy, because a mountain was sad watching it? What do you suppose that taught the 8 year old watching it?

Sorry to go on a tangent here, but 4chan was killed because too many fucking new people (especially teenagers) came in, saw that /b/ and /v/ were edgy and cynical, and decided that in order to fit in on 4chan, they have to act like what they think /b/ and /v/ are "supposed" to act like, hence why there's so much bait and needless rage and hipsterism on every board now (there used to be decent boards, believe it or not, and /co/ was one of them)

4chan users are quite afraid of Tumblrs and Redditors coming in and making 4chan suck, but it was ultimately 4chan's own fault

World = Not happy place

>>
>>78057859
Emotions ruling reality = Bad.

No one wants Fox to keep the rights to the X-Men, or Spider-Man. They think it's mean that Fox won't give them to Marvel Studios.

The reality is, those franchises make money, so Fox will crap out a story now and then to keep their copyrights fresh.

In these stories, your bitching on the internet, being butt hurt about it, would make Fox see the error of their ways, and surrender the rights to those franchises at no cost to Marvel Studios.

Emotional Logic is wrong, it's emphasizing ideal reality, versus factual reality.

Emotions are fine, everyone has feels, and I've yet to meet someone that doesn't get choked up when a character is going through a serious loss, that you the audience had been brought along to share in that sensation.

That kind of emotion in storytelling is required to fulfill the cycle of interest in a character or story.

Basing an entire story off of emotion becomes boring, cliche, and tiring. That's why Edgelord programming like Legend of Korra couldn't hold on to it's place in the sun, why people rejected Beware the Batman, and show like Naruto produce an audible sigh out of seasoned viewers.

The blurring of the lines between genders isn't necessarily a bad thing, allowing boys to feel sorrow, and girls to feel aggression isn't bad. But forcing that exchange is, and that's what these shows do. They force the audience to accept the narrative that emotion changes the outcome, when it's only supposed to enhance the journey.

No.
Those aren't even remotely close to the same motivating factors.

Superman:
>A child of tragedy.
>Aware of his isolation from day one.
>Last of his kind (until later, but through the development years of his life, childhood, young adulthood.
>Reminded regularly to keep his true self a secret, to repress his desire to expose the trueness of his identity.
>Only knows his mother and father through what amounts to a home video.
>Attempts to blend into American society by portraying the exact opposite of his true self.

Samurai Jack
>A child of privilege. A member of royalty. A new chapter in a long book of legacy and honor.
>Abrupt tragedy.
>Suddenly a child of tragedy.
>Narrowly escapes his home watching his father lose in the battle against evil.
>Mother abandons him with complete strangers who are not only new to him, but also bear next to no visual or cultural similarities.
>Transitions to becoming a child of War.
>Abandons his childhood, innocence, and wonder for a life of strength, honor, and physical prowess.
>Returns as an adult to a mother who had forsaken hope until his return.
>Is united with the singular instrument of justice known to him.
>His entire life has been building to this moment.
>Frees his frail, and dying father from captivity.
>Defeats the foe he had dedicated is entire life to destroying.
>Is denied his victory. Denied his legacy. Denied his sole purpose in life.
>Sent to a distant future where all of his efforts were in vain, evil was triumphant, and suffering has consumed all that he has ever known.

No. Those three are not alike in any sense of the word. Good try though.

>>
>>78058237
Emotional logic has trained you to see tragedy as universal. That sorrow can be a uniting factor within the human condition.

Instead, the reality is, suffering is not universal, pain is not universal, your sorrow is nothing to be considered similar to another's suffering.

Steven, Jack, and Clark/Kal-El all have varying degrees of pain, and very different methods of dealing with it. The choice to do something positive with that pain is purely in the hands of the writer. Any one of them could've chosen to become Lex Luthor, the Joker, or any other villain who used their sadness to fuel their anger.

Emotional logic has also told you that that choice isn't decided until the character has made that choice. In reality, bad people are bad from the beginning. No adult witnesses tragedy and leaves a life of helping orphans to go kill killer whales. That's just silly. But emotional logic would tell you that anybody's tears can be tears of rage, pain, or joy. Which isn't the case at all. In order to go bad, you must first have bad within you.

Jack and Superman are characters who's identity, righteousness, and pureness of heart are based around their actions, not their will to do good things.

Do you understand the difference?
