>>149239107No no, he's got a point and it's interesting he brings up Doug because one thing that's been brought up is Doug, ironically enough, seems to know more about the principles of animation more than most these cartoon tubers do.
Like, you can especially see it in his review of Ralph Bakshi's Lord of the Rings when he starts talking about the line-work in the backgrounds changing so different settings within the film can evoke different emotions. Or he'll talk about the art of using individual character movement to convey different personalities.
One consistent issue with a lot of these Cartoontubers is that they seem to only view animation as a means to make more fantastic concepts happen but seem to have very little eye for the actual visual storytelling element.
Same with like, Doug vs a lot of the "plot-hole critics", he inspired.
Doug just did a video talking about why the Disney remakes and Nu-Wars movies aren't working as well and he made an interesting point that newer Star Wars and Disney remakes are insecure about embracing fairytale logic/emotional storytelling and therefore a lot of these plot holes or contrivances become much more noticeable.
I think it's like, anything can tell you that something sucked and all this stuff that sucks about it but it takes an appreciation of general storytelling art forms to actually say "I can see what this was going for and I can see where it went wrong" like that and a lot of the cartoon youtube guys don't really have the ability to dissect into something like that. Give merit where due, and piss on the flaws.
