Why are women so obsessed with romance and shipping?
>>149456460>Why are self-inserters incapable of being just friends with a girl?To be 'just friends' with a girl you have to find her unattractive.
This doesn't really work for movies where the cast is supposed to be attractive (especially to furries)
>>149456457 (OP)>Why are zoomers so allergic to romance?Because it's the same thing over and over. And it compromises the action.
They should just fuck for half a minute then never bring it up again.

The wolf guy has a bad design
>Long ago, in ancient China, the peacocks ruled over Gongmen City. They brought great joy and prosperity to the city, for they had invented fireworks. But their son, Lord Shen, saw darker power in the fireworks. What had brought color and joy could also bring darkness and destruction. Shen's troubled parents consulted a soothsayer. She foretold that if Shen continued down this dark path, he would be defeated by a warrior of black and white. The young lord set out to change his fate, but what he did next... only sealed it. Shen returned to his parents full of pride, but in their faces, he only saw horror. He was banished from the city forever. But Shen swore revenge. Someday, he would return, and all of China would bow at his feet.
>Young Shen was in line to rule Gongmen City, but he wanted more. I foretold that someone would stand in his way. A panda.
>>149456457 (OP)If the main guy and girl have a relationship that sparks strong/romantic feelings in people, then making it a romance is great.
But if it's like a lot of kid's show main guy/girls that are just lighthearted buddies and trusted friends, suddenly making it a romance feels weird. Like an arranged marriage.
Good relationships are built on good friendships, but you still need deep feelings and passion for it to be desirable as a romance. Sure, you can say these characters developed a more passionate connection offscreen, but what worth is that to the audience?
You're slapping on the ball and chain of a relationship label that's supposed to denote intense feelings and intimate attraction, while it was probably shown to you as something mostly light, fun, and on the more cerebral side. Dealing with emotions at the respectful distance of friends.
The label weighs down something that originally felt buoyant and free, and yet the label is a bland dead weight, since no thought or feeling went into it.
Zoomers aren't allergic to romance, they're just developing an actual taste and demand for it. Shipping became a widespread self-aware phenomenon in the formative years of the people making their media now. Under this influence and interest, it's now much more common for people to know what, and why they ship.
Look at the Deltarune fandom. I only know a bit about it, but from what I see, people are crazy about shipping a main guy/girl friendship there. Making tons of beautiful fanart, with a girl whose canon romantic interest is another girl no less. And it's because it made people feel deep and tender things. Romance isn't romance without ROMANCE
>>149456457 (OP)One of the worst big-budget animation movies ever made. Blame the writers.
>>149456457 (OP)Romance is usually so boring and the same thing over and over again, and it's treated more like a checklist than something anyone has any passion for writing. I like how Tammers does romance alteast it's interesting.
>>149456457 (OP)hang yourself, generation warring faggot
you contribute less than nothing
>>149456457 (OP)If zoomers are saying this, then they're right. They had an obvious big sister / little brother relationship in 2.
>>149456460kill yourself my man
>>149456457 (OP)Because they were taught by the Jews to dislike intimacy and affection.
Social media screencap threads are pure cancer since they're always made for the sake of trolling and they're also an implicit raid request since the OP is basically saying "HEY EVERYBODY, LOOK AT WHAT THIS FAGGOT SAID. AREN'T YOU UPSET? DON'T YOU FEEL COMPELLED TO MAKE A THROWAWAY ACCOUNT AND HARASS HIM?"

>>149457239>Zoomers aren't allergic to romance, they're just developing an actual taste and demand for it.Zoomers have the worst taste in romance because it largely amounts to whether two characters look good then you make up a scenario in your head to make them seem like really deep lovers and the kicker is that They Must ALAWAYS BE GAY. It doesn't fucking matter if you develop a romance at all they hate any resemblance of heteronormacy and just call it "cliche" "bad" or "they should be friends". Avatar, Arcane and of course Voltron got hit the most with this bullshit and the writing quality for all of suffered the most as a result.

>>149456457 (OP)Rangeban amerisharts
If you don't understand why people hate romance subplots, you haven't watched enough 2000's movies. It's usually if not always an attempt to keep women interested in a movie otherwise not marketed towards them.

>>149456457 (OP)Zoomers are massively dysfunctional, arrogant, and retarded. Gen X will lay into them on tiktok, they'll shit their pants and lash out at millennials. They can't function as adults and can't even speak to another human being without having a meltdown, demand everyone caters to them, want to walk around with noise-cancelling headphones on and piss themselves in outrage if someone tries to talk to them, they don't want to study and just want to be youtube stars and influencers, every unaccomplished zoom demands people bow down and lick their shoes because they all think they're geniuses...
Sure you say oh but everyone always hates on the younger generation. That isn't what this is. These people are pathetic. Covid was 5 years ago and they still excuse all their shitty behavior by saying that lockdown fucked them up. They can't read a book, they're so fucking worthless they even fuck up customer service and fast food jobs, employers got one taste of them and are suddenly bending over backwards to suck the dick of millennials now that they've seen what lies for them in the future.
Then they go online and act like the morality police and use twitter mobs and hate-spamming to force everyone into compliance like a toddler tyrant who never grew up. Their parents failed to raise them into functional adults. They are 24 years old and still acting like they are a minor with special privileges we all have to cater to, holier than thou, can do no wrong.

>>149456457 (OP)They're not against romance, they just hate when women settle with a man. If Po were female, they'd be harassing Dreamworks to let them kiss.
>>149458667Pretty much this. Itโs always man/woman they have a problem with. No one is saying that canon gay couples should have stayed platonic.
I love how Shen is never mentioned again after 2. DreamWorks knows that he was a shit villain.

>"Such sad, sad faces. But now is a time only for joy. You are going to be part of something beautiful. Once we reach the harbor, in front of all the world, you and your precious kung fu will die... Then China will know to bow before me"
What was his problem?
>>149456457 (OP)People don't make a big deal when tropes go the normal way of tropes. So you'll only see people talk about when it doesn't and if it's in a way they like them they'll praise it. This doesn't mean that everyone thinks this way or that it's the most popular opinion.
I don't think anyone wants actual romance in the Kung Fu Panda fanbase anyways.
>So, who are you, Panda?

I used to find it really weird that not only are there constant screencaps of offsite social media, but the sheer amount of people here - these days - that seem to have developed alien perceptions of how the world they supposedly live in works, gobbling up manufactured ragebait and engagement farming in a way that suggests they're trying to LARP as being from a civilization they're not actually apart of, and lo and behold, now I realize that it's because of 3rd-worlders who use social media as the closest thing they'll get to living in a 1st-world nation.

>>149456457 (OP)Eh, I get it. Romance being shoved into a work where it doesn't belong can suck.
>>149457239Actually it is because Kris and Susie's friendship feels insanely natural and sweet while the actual romance feels like the worst, most stuttery and forced yurislop I have ever seen to the point where the game feels like it drags to a screeching stop whenever it comes up.
Because we're fucked in the mind and body beyond repair and we don't want constant reminders that we're actually forever alone and be fed basic bitch advice from moralfags who don't actually have any empathy or understanding of what the fuck is going on in our world.

Granted, some of that is simply due to romances in kids movies typically being rushed dogshit, but the simple friendships are often much more watchable, and I think you could argue more realistic for a growing relationship anyhow.
It also makes for great art/fanfic bait too since it eggs on those creative who really want to see it.

>>149456928Is Tigress trying to push Po away from another girl here?
>>149456457 (OP)It probably arises from the oversaturation of boy and girl protagonists ending up as romantic interests for each other.
However, this behavior is an overcorrection. Any ship that is not already canon or accepted in the fandom gets reduced to this weird, enforced platonic relationship bullshit.
Essentially, now you have two already existing options for non-canonical shipping, which fandom logic enforces on you for found family about being sibling-coded bullshit or plain ass friends.
However, the problem that everyone fails to realize is that every non-canonical relationship is treated as the same type of enforced platonic dynamic, which makes the ship less unique among thousands of others because everything feels the same.
Defeating the meaning of the purpose for more nuances in relationships, only to be as conformative and restrictive.

I love romance but I find most live action movie/TV romances mediocre to awful.

Romance subplots have pretty much disappeared from western media. Fanfiction and anime are the only thing filling the void. Even a subtle romance would be nice but it feels like everyone are just friends. There are books but most of the romance in those is just physical.

There is hope that with time, people will realize how embarrassing a generation of manchildren like these are, and the pendulum could swing back just as it slowly did during the 70s-80s. Or we might see things regress even further, in which case back up your favorite shows and comics, cause that shit is gonna get nuked when purity culture goes nuclear.

Green hair is the main character, middle is his superhero idol who mentors green hair to be the next Superman basically, and blonde is the bully/rival who befriends green hair over time. Fujos naturally love drawing and writing them as if they're in love, even though the two have a really toxic relationship.
>>149456457 (OP)This is kind of what I was hoping for out of this disastrous series, so I understand where that Xitter user's coming from. Healthy male/female friendships are definitely rarer than they could be, so Kung Fu Panda's oughta be appreciated more.

This is why they don't like fantasy love stories in fiction. Where someone ugly gets the awesome person. There isn't a clear way to make such a thing a reality, so they don't want to see it. They are tired of being shown stuff like this.
I don't completely disagree with them. Dont get me wrong, I want hot women in my fiction. But I don't need to live vicariously through the shlub of a main character.
Avatar is a pretty good example. for most of the show, Aang getting with katara isn't really believable. It doesn't add a lot to the show either.
>>149457133This applies to same sex.
>>149472406Heh, I know, right?
>>149474209>Aang getting with katara isn't really believableAang is the most powerful warrior in the world. It's pretty believable. I like Zutara, but Zutara tries to apply a real-world dynamic (girl falling for a bad boy) to a feudal world where might and power are attractive. In the Middle Ages, the "bad boy" would end up in stocks while the warrior king bangs all the women.
Aang is a warrior king.
>>149474209>Aang getting with katara isn't really believable. It doesn't add a lot to the show either.Aang and Katara's romance was a huge part of the series. Some of the best moments were just the two of them talking or Katara comforting Aang when he was going through things. And how is it not believable? They're the two closest people in the world to each other.

I still can't believe how bad KFP2 turned out. I was expecting something a little inferior to the original like Shrek 2 and Madagascar 2, but the drop in writing quality was much, much bigger than expected.

>>149476599Just let it go, you cuck. Nobody's biting.
>>149458419"People" who hate romance subplots tend to either be feminists or men who got sucked into online alpha male stuff. I can't think of a single movie that was made worse from the addition of a romance subplot.
>>149477040I despise KFP2. Absolutely loathe it
>A panda? That's impossible
>There are no more pandas
>So one panda still lives...
Judging by those lines by the wolf guy and Shen, it's clear that they thought that pandas didn't exist in China anymore. Which begs the question: Did they destroy every single panda village in China or were all the pandas in China assembled in Po's village?
>>149472526Ok, but what about, say, the Finncels who seethe over Bubbline?
>>149456460>>149457133>>149475356Why are trannies trying to convince me that opposite sex besties using their bond to have comfy, consensual low-stress sex is a bad thing? Sex is good. Sex improves your mental health. It's natural. Doesn't matter if it's between lovers or just buddies trying to get off. Sometimes it'll lead to feelings, sometimes it won't.
But we all know what this is really about. Trannies don't mind sex, they just think straight sex is demonic and queer genocide. It's cynical pretend-puritanism.
>>149477179Never watched Adventure Time, but the writers initially set up a Finn/Bubblegum romance, only to chicken out because they thought the age gap was inappropriate. Don't blame fans for seeing something that was initially intended to be there.

>>149456457 (OP)>Why are zoomers so allergic to romance?because romance isn't universal or great or effortless.
My suspension of disbelief gets thoroughly violated by the kinds of romances that filmmakers used to depict.
>>149477064Nobody hates romance on principle. Feminists and LGBT freaks just hate heterosexual romance.
>>149466689>There are books but most of the romance in those is just physical.That is often how romance starts. At first its a physical attraction, but sometimes you want to do more. God forbid you are already in a relationship with someone and a new physical attraction does not ruin what you already have. Once it becomes routine, that is the danger zone. You might subconsciously crave excitement, and end up inviting this coworker to a Coldplay concert for the world to see your infidelity.
lol

Point being, there needs to be more in a relationship than physical attraction. Otherwise you will always feel empty and alone with anyone you are with.

I hate "sex" scenes (read: designated gross mouth noise scenes) in pg-13 movies so much I'm willing to back these people just to prevent more from happening.
>>149456457 (OP)Because we've grown up with awkwardly forced romance subplots that contribute nothing to the story, and every single story needing to end with the hero getting the girl no matter what or else the Millennials might piss and shit themselves. And unlike the consoomer generation we're media-smart enough to recognize it for the restrictive, artificial, coporately mandated bullshit it really is.
>>149487936The older I get the more I agree. I also hate the "Its a rated M show, it HAS to be vulgar" trope. I wouldn't argue against e.g. the Oppenheimer sex scene because it was relevant to show how intimate and uncomfortable the hearing was.
But for example, I'm a fan of Yellowstone and the other shows around it, which are westerns in different time periods, and I got extremely fucking annoyed how EVERYONE had a fucking sex scene: the protagonist, the side characters, both villains including the fugly one, even one of the fucking nuns. The only ones not fucking were the horses and Harrison Ford. I also watched Heat for the first time recently and I wish I could burn the sight of a tongue fencing Robert DeNiro out of my fucking mind.
>>149487977Talking about the series 1923, forgot to mention.

I put on Eyes Wide Shut and it blew me away how schizophrenic and scared by anything sexual the average zoomer guy is. They were constantly uncomfortable and asking me what kind of "porno movie" i was showing them. Nicole Kidman in a nighthown with her tits showing? PORN. The cult scenes in the mansion with naked chicks? PORN. One guy even covered his eyes and said "tell me when the porn scenes stop". And for weeks after we watched it, the only comment they had about the movie was "it's some weird porn movie Anon showed us". That was the only thing they remembered. They didn't even remember that Tom Cruise starred in it, what the plot was, nothing. Early 20s guys scarred by seeing nicole kidman's tits. And i'm the weird one in this situation, according to them and other pople from uni.

You CANNOT dance around this and all your attempts to "shame" us out of caring about it will continue to fail. Men should NOT let themselves be a woman's shoulder to lean on if she won't put out. A woman friendzoning you = she does not want you sexually. She will go and suck and fuck other dudes and then turn around and bitch and cry about them, while still not letting you hit. Some "friend" she is. The only reason men don't fuck eachother is because we aren't gay. If my "friend" is a member of the opposite sex, either we are fucking or am cutting off all contact permanently.
Guys? Women talk a big game about emotional labor. Ok, no more doing emotional labor for women without sexual activity in return.
Stories can not have male/female romance and then. It's just that those are generally baby stories and as desire grows in the reader the whole "no romance" thing really stands out and it starts becoming a glaring issue. Men and women are designed to help one another. We fit each other perfectly. I've always wanted to see the union my parents had reflected in the media I watched because I wanted and still want to be married as an adult myself. If all the stories become a-romantic fluff, well, I imagine that'll get people out of their comfort zones and into each other's faces talking again. I mean, the escapism isn't escapism if the protagonist I'm engaged in doesn't ever pull the trigger or make anything happen.
>>149492331AI-generated response
>>149491259>No guy wants to be a friend without benefits. WE WANT OUR DICKS WET.We want marriage, ideally. This is why we don't put a lot of energy into multiple different women. We're not in the habit of spreading ourselves thin to a friend group. That doesn't serve us in our duty to have a one good woman and building a life with her. That's why when we're married we're not supposed to have any "girl" friends. You nip that in the bud because you were only ever hunting for companionship. Now that you have the one you're with you don't need the others. Same reason why a woman having a lot of male friends is a big red flag. Like, you're gonna be with your husband now. All that "emotional labor" is supposed to fall squarely on him, not onto your exes or whatever.
>>149456457 (OP)This is just the mature fruit of the sexual revolution.
Everyone is just a whore or a coomer with no sense of emotional or spiritual attachment to the act.
Here's your brave new world, I hope you choke on it.
>>149492416I get your logic even though I disagree with the goal. But yeah, whether your goal is a wet dick or a wife, the friendzone is your enemy. End of.
>>149492442Cope. My mentality has not chanced since I hit puberty and first started getting hard ons and craving sex. I wasn't going "Wow! What are the emotional or spiritual connotations of pussy? Wow! I can't wait to fall in love and use sex as an emotional bonding ritual".
>>149456457 (OP)They only seethe about if it's opposite sexes
>>149456457 (OP)Romance is generally really bad. Feelings are important to communicate character, but they're not the backbone of a story and they can't hold it up if the rest isn't strong enough.

It is not something specific or particular or a matter of taste and culture. Romantic love and sexuality are just part of what it means to be human, period. The fact that you can even try to argue against that shows how messed up you are on a fundamental level.

>>149498542Its very self explanatory dude but I'll handhold you through this
In The Mummy would you rather have them cut out the female character and spend more time fucking around with traps, puzzles, and monsters in the pyramid as a way to learn about what is going to be unleashed (I also take issue with plenty of exposition at the beginning of a movie but many times its necessary unless you want some giant puzzle) or would you rather keep the romance and waste precious minutes that could be dedicated to showing us something different and exciting
Remember, the only reason she was probably there was so that Hollywood needs to appeal to women.
If they didn't you'd likely get a fun scene with a Egyptian whore that works for the antagonist lures them into a place with the villians hiding and you get a nice nude scene with a fight that breaks out when the villains try and capture them and maybe there's some injury that contributes to them being easier to track or less capable at maneuvering through the traps which leads to peril/comedy, stolen/found item needed to find the location, tracker planted with the whole capture attempt being a ruse so they rush to secret location
>>149456880>To be 'just friends' with a girl you have to find her unattractiveYou just displayed the key difference between males and females. Males would fuck any female they find attractive while females wouldn't just fuck any male, even if he was attractive.
>>149498823This is an extremely zoomer take. I've literally never once heard anyone complain about romance in The Mummy of all things. People loved that movie.
One of the most infamously tacked on and underdeveloped romances in film history was The Last of the Mohicans. It's genuinely bad, and I still wouldn't trade it, because it gives the hero a reason to care about the heroine and risk his life for her.
>>149499157You're on the right track, but it's more that women don't find most guys attractive. Women think virtually no guy is a 10, and men who would be considered an 8 by other men are considered a 5 or 6 by women.
>>149457239>Look at the Deltarune fandom.Outside of porn, it's the complete opposite of what you described.

>>149488645???
Are you implying incest?
>>149499200Hate to you but females just don't give pussy that easily because they're wired to look for someone who will stick around over just who gets them hot, unlike males. It's that attractiveness isn't the end-all to them as it is for males.
>>149498512NTA but:
Danny Phantom
Legend of Korra
Gravity Falls (NO ONE likes Soos' gf)
The Hobbit movies
90% of Archie Sonic
>>149456457 (OP)Has /co/ always been this infested with shipfags?
>>149456457 (OP)This is not a zoomer thing, This faggot is mentally ill, Zoomers aren't even old enough to write these stupid fucking movie plots anyway.
>>149500773Supposedly millenials arent old enough to write anything either even when theyre nearing 45. Gen x and baby boomers must be working their asses off.
>>149500290>KorraAuthors explicitly have stated they wanted to do a more modern romance, so you got everything wrong we had from hookup culture. And then we got lesbians
>The Hobbit movies Eh, in the book, the dwarfs outside of Durin were a collection of one-note characters. You wouldn't grow attached to them enough to care about their deaths.
As much that romance was against the lore, it has fixed that issue and expanded on Legolas' and Thranduil's characters.
