this is probably one of my favorite facts from this blog so far
THAT’S FUCKING BRILLIANT, HOLY FUCK. Aardman animation is really great.
i thought it was because that one chicken liked to knit and made things for everyone
That headcanon works
fun fact: this is the same reason so many hanna barbara characters (yogi bear, snagglepuss, fred flinstone) have such clearly defined neck ornaments, so their limited animation budget would allow them to save money by reusing the same bodies but with different heads
Same with the “Caveman stubble” the mouth area was a different color because it was basically a separate layer to be swapped with different mouth shapes without needing to redraw the head.
jennifer lawrence: [tells a story about how she rubbed her ass on sacred rocks because it was itchy in a wetsuit and disrespected an entire culture and thought it was funny]
white people: whaaaaat there’s nothing wrong with that, she’s just so funny and quirky and hawai’ians beliefs r so dumb anyway
She didn’t just rub her ass on it, she dislodged a boulder that rolled down the hill and nearly hit someone. Not only did she fuck around with a world heritage site like it was nothing, she nearly killed someone on her own crew by being a clueless moron and seems oblivious as to why people are upset.
If you went into Arlington National Cemetery and shoved over a tombstone that nearly crushed someone you would get rightfully yelled at for vandalizing a sacred area and for nearly injuring another person and would rightfully find yourself in cuffs. She deserved the same.
absolutely fucking agreed, and the fact that chris fucking pratt, who is a born again religious christian white man, was cringing visibly and looked shocked through the entire interview really says something about the entire situation
let’s not forget she was also mocking the natives!!!!
People say Anime is a Mistake yet 2017 is looking to be the worst year for Western Animation with such extraordinary gems like Boss Baby, The Emoji Movie, Nut Job 2, Despicable Me 3, and Lightning McQueen dies the movie.
Bad western animation: Generic Child Makes Fart Jokes
Bad anime: I Can’t Believe My Little Sister Turns Into A Dragon When I Squeeze Her Titties
Western Animation: Literally a bunch of talking food having a massive orgy and say “fuck” over and over.
Western Animation: Fat man and nag wife make offensive jokes that are passed off as “satire” and their dog repeatedly gets battered and beaten in a graphic manner by a baby who also makes offensive jokes and says swears for the sake of “humor.”
Western Animation: You remember the Teen Titans?? Yeah they have R@NDUMB HUM0R XDDDD now!!! Remember the Powerpuff Girls?? They reference outdated memes now. Remember *thing we liked during childhood*?? THEY CAN TWERK NOW. Gotta cater to the kiddies! What, you, a fan of the old series, doesn’t like it? Then we’ll create a caricature meant to mock you, because fuck fans.
Anime: Single father cooks food for his daughter because it makes her happy.
Anime: Lesbian witch with a gun obliterates Nazis.
Anime: Remember Sailor Moon? Well now she’s back and in this version, we’ll be keeping closer to the manga’s story and art style. Wait, the animation in the first two seasons was bad? We’ll gladly fix that in the third season, because we actually care about fans.
…but also.
Western Animation: Cute bunny cop teaches us why prejudice is bad no matter who you direct it at.
Western Animation: Boy with many moms learns to use the powers he inherited from his dead mom, and along the way, manages to help prejudical people see the light.
Western Animation: A team of five dorks, lead by a gorgeous princess, battle aliens inside of robot lions that can all turn into a giant humanoid robot, and learn to bond with one another.
Anime: Soda cans turn into girls when sipped out of.
Anime: Girls who make terrible butt puns use their asses to fight each other. Somehow, this is considered a sport.
Anime: Guy has a literal angel with big titties fall from the sky and she starts calling him “Master.” Two more angels also fall from the sky. All three fall in love with him and he gets the first one to remove girls’ panties and bring them to him and shit like that.
Gee it’s almost like good and bad animation exists no matter where it comes from and that opinions and tastes are subjective so some of the “weird” anime will be good to some and not to others and some people may also like the “weird” Western animation but not the stuff people consider “good”
I genuinely like most of these so I’m more like whatever
