>>149293406Honestly while I don’t defend Johns predatory behavior and don’t agree with quite a bit of his opinions I will admit he had a point. As an animator, you should be able to criticize work, the cartoons of the 80’s during the dark age of animation were nothing but stiffly-animated glorified toy commercials, animators fucking despised them. This is why the 90’s was so relieving for them, as they put that shit era behind.
Now we’re basically experiencing a second animation dark age, the cheaply animated beanmouth shows and Family Guy ripoffs that are being forced to have samey artstyles by the upper heads are our equivalent to the toy commercials of the 80's, but the difference is that nobody wants to criticize beanmouth because they’re too afwaid of huwting someone’s feewings, the modern animation industry is full of manchildren who consume this slop rather than caring about the state of the industry.
We need a new cartoonist in the industry, the John K of the zoomer generation, that rebels against all the modern slop of the industry and manages to appeal to the masses, and hopefully this new influential guy isn’t a pedo this time.
