>>149371623>You compared them to one of the most corporate of corporate entitiesI compared them to the most popular in a field, which they themselves are.
This entire conversation is about popularity in a field.
How corporate something may or may not be is entirely irrelevant to the discussion, because we're talking pure popularity.
Your most well known local restaurant could be a pure mom n pop run establishment, but it would still be the Disney of local restaurants if we're talking about how well known they are within a grouping.
And they could be absolute ass too, and a still be the Disney of that specific grouping.
No one is moving any goal posts when the entire conversation has always been about popularity vs. quality in a field, be that burgers or indie animation.
TADC is below average, mass produced, commercialized slop.
Is it the absolute bottom of the barrel? No. But there's plenty worse burger joints than McDonald's too.
