I think one of the biggest vibe shifts in media in recent years has been general audience fatigue of ugliness and the return of appreciation for aesthetic beauty. Sure, the same implicit "woke" messaging and liberal sensibilities are still all there, but at least the girls are hot again.

Kpop is 1 show. Where's the trend? Theyll smack down the very next attempted at having idealized character designs because their choices are deliberate.

Both movies had songs on the radio
"We don't talk about bruno"
"Golden"
I heard golden this morning on the radio.

>>149781775
It’s not just cartoons though. There has been a general return to celebrating attractiveness in all of media.

>>149781865
>>149781994
Yes trannies

>>149782007
>Both movies had songs on the radio
Exactly. Both movies were popular for their respective times, which the reflects the rapid changes in cultural attitudes towards aesthetics in the past 4 years. I don’t think Encanto would be as successful and popular as it was if it were released today.

>>149781753 (OP)
Top was ugly because they couldn't figure out how to translate Mirabel's 2d design without strictly adhering to Disney's in-house 3d style and have her look frumpy but youthful.
>>149782067
American Eagle for the past decade has been using a mix of models, fat and dumpy, fit/athletic, brown or white. For example Jaron Baker. This isn't new and you fell for their recent marketing stunt like that fat bitch Lizzo did.

>>149782304
True, Mirabel looks 35

>>149782067
It’s a pendulum. Excuse me for the /pol/
2010s were about breaking cultural norms and embracing ugliness

>>149783225
Right? Easily looks like she could be one of her mother's siblings. Seeing those 2d pencil tests just drives it in.
>>149783276
Low waisted jeans have been in for a while now partly due to the y2k revival 2020-2022, it just took a bit of for fast fashion and normies to catch on, unfortunately that doesn't mean they're worn exclusively by people who are fit, shit that wasn't even the case in the 2000s. It's funny because it seems high waisted jeans still seem to be somewhat popular, especially if flared. May very well be a shift in something, not sure if entirely political to be honest or cultural/generational tastes in fashion.

>>149783276
Saying it’s a pendulum swing implies that we’ll eventually return to 2010s aesthetics, which I don’t think will be the case.

>>149784891
It's basically inevitable that the 2010s will make a resurgance, but it will be the mosf palatable stuff from it. No one's making y2k pinterest boards about the ugly capris girls wore in the 2000s, double popped collars, or any Ed Hardy type shit. Similarly when the 2010s come back skinny jeans returning as the predominant jean style for women and more women going back to a side part will probably be the first sign but you likely won't see the fauxhawks every young guy had back then or the moustaches printed on everything.

>>149785094
Because "y2k" being late 90s/new millennium fashion that is THE hot shit that actual fashion conscious people were striving for, unfortunately what you said isn't entirely true. I've been seeing the more fugly trends from the mid to late 2000s being lumped in with y2k and other styles being absorbed into the y2k label, mostly pushed by peaked in high school millennial women showing off their branded polo's kek. Bow print shit made a comeback in fast fashion/mall brands.

But, skinny jeans were a late 90's/early 2000 style. Baggy and skinny jeans co-existed.

It’s why everyone was shipping her with her uncle, she looks a decade older than she really is while he looks good for a guy in his 50s or so.

1950s. And believe it or not uncle/niece marriages were a thing back then and still are in parts of the world. Like cousin marriage.

>>149786723
By the 1950s uncle/niece marriage had been abolished by society as a whole.

>>149786621
1920s

>>149785890
This. I just wish media could find a middle ground between modern and older character designs.

That being said I think Encanto was fine. Not good just okay. Haven't seen Demon Hunters.

Yeah, might be a minor age gap of a few years thing too. I remember looser styles gaining traction some time the late 10s I don't think it was strictly due to 2000s nostalgia despite there also being a lot of it, there were a lot of 80s and 90s inspired looks at the time too.

Skinny jeans were a style in the 2000s (definitely not popular in the 90s) but they were completely ubiquitous in the 2010s. Bright color skinny jeans, jeggings, guys wearing skinny jeans too, those were all 2010s concepts.

>>149782067
Big deal? What's the point of eyecandy when you are still getting politically correct shit like....

Feminism
Diversity Multiculturalism
Degenerate lifestyles like homosexual stuff

None of this shit has been purged from the industry and culture. Every single western nation is tainted by this shit. Nothing has changed. The only thing I've noticed in recent times is an increase in Race Mixing agendas like in Superman's recent cartoon, the Disney movie Elemental, or the recent Dreamworks movie Bad Guys 2 (all romances are interspecies).

Basically nothing has changed you are still getting agenda shit.

>>149788393
It's not a big deal, they never stopped employing attractive, fit models or even white people but there was a bigger push for more dumpy, average or downright aesthetically unappealing people in bigger advertising campaigns for about a decade in general. The only big deal is that it's Sydney Sweeney and her being a celeb gets more attention, they've being doing similar shoots with lesser known models and no uproar. It's only news to people who don't pay attention and it means the ad campaign worked successfully.

>>149787402

>>149788532
My point is that its still vile rotten shit. I don't care if a female character is hot if she's still being used to symbolize nasty agendas like Girl Power or Girl Boss shit and feminism.

I for one have had enough of that shit for one lifetime and I wish cancer on anyone who makes that shit. If I were writing media I would depict female characters as unflattering as possible. Make them shitty and torture them to death them for being shit incarnate.

>>149781753 (OP)
Its not so much a fatigue of ugliness, but a fatigue of 'performative'/shallow ugliness.

Mirabel still has big Disney(tm) eyes, perfectly shiny hair, nicely shaped eyelashes and eyebrows, and perfectly smooth skin. Just makes it seem as though they don't want her or other 'realistic' characters in new disney shit to seem ACTUALLY real or flawed, just enough to look diverse.

>>149788125
its 'ugly face as default all the time' vs 'exaggerated cartoony faces for a few seconds at best during comedic scenes', don't pretend they're the same.

>>149785983

I feel like it's tourists who hate cartoons and thus somehow can't understand funny faces and think it's an indication on the art style/character as a whole

>>149789408
Who's "we", I'm not part of your schizophrenic hallucinations

Way to ignore the central plot conflicts of each story to focus on what you want.

Encanto is literally about the family being such a fucking mess of issues that its literally destroying their house, and as things are, the only time their powers are really shown off as affecting the community is A) Louisa helping people lift things, which any strong man should be able to do instead, and B) all the villagers hating Bruno for predicting anything remotely bad in their lives. If the house collapsed and they all lost their powers, not much would really change for the village as a whole.

Then the ending is everyone easily forgiving the grandma for all the pressure and expectations she dumped on her kids/grandkids and pretending that there'd be no lasting emotional repercussions to her actions.

Can't even enjoy movies anymore, they have to be tools of discourse.

>>149789359
Her design is impressive to me because she does look uniquely colombian, you can actually just tell from certain features
They just chose a homely girl instead of a hot one.

>>149789887
>Then the ending is everyone easily forgiving the grandma for all the pressure and expectations she dumped on her kids/grandkids and pretending that there'd be no lasting emotional repercussions to her actions.

This right here is why I hate both Encanto AND Coco. And I feel anger that Coco is getting a sequel. I really hate this modern string about having either....

Unlikable main characters like in Zootopia or Bad Guys - They are all criminals and corrupt.

Or...

Excusing shitty people - Encanto and Raya and the Last Dragon comes to mind.

I can't stand these movies. They are atrocious films. I just want to kill these extremely shitty characters. I don't care which studio does it I hate shitty immoral characters taking the spotlight. And you know what I blame Despicable Me. The title of that franchise outright tells you the main character is a shitty criminal.

I think the culture of the United States has become shit if these are the media that reflect it and don't get me started on popularity of trash like The Sopranos. I hated that horrible garbage series so much. And I also hate Game of Thrones, more like everyone important is a self serving opportunistic cunt willing to commit hideous crimes.

>>149789959
That's always been a thing in entertainment. The only problem is that Modern Culture of the last thirty years has been progressive Left leaning trash. And you can make the argument that seeds of this filth were being planted in the eighties as far as entertainment goes. This means the seeds sprouted in the nineties. There's a good reason the nineties was called the Girl Power decade.

It was unrealistic of quickly the grandma saw the error of her ways (if you have a relative like her you just know how much fucking work it is to get them to apologize or ever admit they were wrong). Then there was how Bruno was so outcasted by his powers to the point where he self-isolated himself and lived in the fucking walls of the house for ten years, yet his reveal and return to the family was totally glossed over when he was treated worse by the family than Mirabel. Easily the worst take on generational trauma of the recent generational trauma movies.

>>149791237
Yeah Bruno especially was horribly dealt with in the end, especially when HE also felt the need to apologise for.. what, just predicting the future like he was ASKED to since the future ended up sometimes being bad + the stupid joke at Pepa's wedding as if HER mood swings and emotional instability is HIS fault.

They all needed to be waaaay more apologetic to him for their attitudes, especially the grandmother.

>>149781753 (OP)
I thought wokeness was being quietly rolled back. How is K-pop Demon Hunters "woke", by the way?

I don't think is about "woke" (whatever the hell that means) or whatever, is just Disney art style for its CGI movies have look so ugly and the AI trend killed the appeal of it.

Likewise, the realism in videogames and movies has been dropping lately for more stylized art styles. Compare the Avengers game with Marvel Rivals, or the two Puss and Boots movies.
