Craig is married to a feminist. He's probably totally okay with this.

Of course it was. It was actual feminist, not the bullshit feminist that's prevalent atm.

>>81444687
The big problem?
Its a reboot.
PPG was a show that I and surely many, many others enjoyed greatly.
The way I see it, original left a pair of shoes too big for a reboot to fill.
The previous versions, like Z were different enough to be its own alternate thing, and as that were fine.
This?
It tries to look and be like original, but I cant even tell if it tries too much or too little.
The first time I saw pics, I thought it was a fanart, and not very good one.
It all looks fake and like it doesnt know what it wants to do with itself.
While watching it I just cant shake the feeling that something is off, something is wrong.

The big mistake was choosing it as a reboot of PPG.
Had they made new cartoon with this style and shit, it would be fine, for it would be its own thing entirely.
As a PPG reboot it falls very, very short in my eyes.

I doubt it. Any man married to a feminist is not okay with anything. He's just keeping it buttoned up, otherwise he might lose the woman and be considered worse than shit by everyone, feminist and MRA alike.

This pretty much sums it up.

Fucking this. CN is already sitting on a bunch of pilots as it is; why not just greenlight one of those?

>>81446537
The "feminist" he's married to is the same one who wrote Equal Fights, which was openly critical of the type of feminism the reboot is promoting.

>>81446620
Because they're not established franchises. They're too risky. It's just easier to regurgitate previous successes. Shit, it's been working so far.

As far as I know, Lauren is supposed to be old-school feminist, the reasonable type.
Different from feminists nowadays.
But I dont know shit about feminism and never met Lauren, so take it as you will.

CN is at their best when they try to experiment.

Yes, but businessmen don't know creativity and risk-taking. To them the only goal is making money and keeping the business alive. If they don't have to take risks, they won't. Simple as that.
>>
>>81446625
>>81446682
I remember that she posted on twitter that she deeply regrets making that episode, that its not a topic for a kid's cartoon.

I'm going to find the post or get a screencap.

The only reason this clickbait is so good is because they can spin it around when there was a villain who was the face of third-wave feminism and say the girls are a sign of third-wave feminism.

No, we couldn't. CN doesn't give a shit about anything except ratings and toy sales. PPG used to be good on both fronts, so why not bring it back to make more money?

No it isn't. No one wanted this. No one asked for this. CN just did it out of the blue.

I'm convinced they have a dartboard at CN headquarters with pictures of shows from the good days that they use to choose what franchise they want to reboot and simultaneously defecate on.

>With its progressive politics and updated 2016 sensibilities—from heavy sarcasm to smartphones—the new Powerpuff Girls is sure to please kids and millennials alike. And the fact that the mayor of Townsville bears a passing resemblance to Bernie Sanders can’t hurt.

SoundCloud was originally founded in Stockholm, Sweden, but was established in Berlin in August 2007 by Swedish sound designer Ljung and Swedish artist Wahlforss. The founders initially aspired to allow musicians to share recordings with each other, but the concept later transformed into a full publishing tool that also allowed musicians to distribute their music tracks.[4]

A few months after inception, SoundCloud began to challenge the dominance of Myspace as a platform for musicians to distribute their music by allowing recording artists to interact more nimbly with their fans
