This there a bigger fumble in animation history than Nickelodeon passing on Adventure Time?

>>151131783 (OP)

*Is

Nick would have ruined it like they ruined all their other shows

>>151131783 (OP)
That was a good choice
Adventure Time made by Nickelodeon would be very annoying and fully of fart feet comedy

>>151131783 (OP)
It would've gotten mogged for timeslots by Spongebob and FOP anyway.

>>151131783 (OP)
Sony gave up all IP rights to Kpop Demon Hunters they were developing with Netflix (including options for sequels, merchandise, soundtrack, theater income) for 20 million dollars because they thought it would perform poorly on Netflix compared to GOAT in theaters

>>151131783 (OP)
>is there a bigger fumble in animation history than Nickelodeon passing on Adventure Time?
Yes. It was Adventure Time being renewed for a third season.

>>151131783 (OP)
The biggest fumble in animation history is Cartoon Network greenlighting Adventure Time, you fucking cartoon critic-watching retard, that show is what caused Tumblrites to get into the animation industry, that show is what caused people to realize that they don’t have to make their shows have appealing artstyles to be good in the public eye, that show is what caused beanmouth, that show is what caused executives to force cheap artstyles onto all shows in an attempt to capture its success which affects shows to this very day. I have no idea how Pend Ward even graduated his art school in the first place, his art looks like amateur shit, even his storyboard on Flapjack fucking sucked. People bitch and mald about Nick choosing Fanboy and Chumchum over AT but the reality is that F&CCs pitch was far more professional. AT didn’t "save animation", it did clear longlasting damage to the animation industry.

>because they thought it would perform poorly on Netflix compared to GOAT in theaters
Kekkkkkk

>>151132767
If there's one thing I'm happy about AT going on, it's sinking this one to davy jones's locker.

>>151133114
PB is legitimately the most evil character in the show.

>>151134151
PB actually cares about her kingdom, making her one of the least evil people in the show

>>151134151
Absolutely.

>>151134151
She speaks German, no one who speaks German could be evil

>>151134294
Of course she cares about it, it's HER kingdom. It's her property. I'm not a virtuous person just because I don't want people to scratch my car and leave dog shit on my lawn.

>>151131783 (OP)

Nick also passed on Phineas and Ferb so it's not even the biggest by that network.

Kind of funny how Adventure Time became the most popular and was beloved by the masses, while a show like Fanboy and Chum Chum got nothing but notoriety, despite both of them having a similar tone.

>>151131783 (OP)
>>151134587
This is one of those things that evolved from a simple bit of trivia about a show into something that is massively stuck in that fanbase's craw and they are unrelentingly annoying about it.

>>151134612
A lot of what makes Adventure Time more notorious is also what /co/ despises about it (continuity, lore, feels, etc). If it was just a funny CN show it would've lasted a few seasons like Chowder before ending. It started the whole trend of cartoon going for "deeper" themes, for better or worse (mostly worse since even AT didn't do it that well)

>>151134612
Its even funnier because CN/Disney passed on The Loud House, which is the type of hit Adventure Time and its dead parent channel wish they had. Yet you wont see Loudchads rubbing it in.

>>151134675
>Loudchads
You mean autistic pedophilic incestfags?

>>151134838
Shut up, tranny

>>151134640
I like the continuity and lore stuff, it's fun

Adventure Time wouldn’t get half the praise it does if it didn’t herald the return of original cartoons on CN. it was in the right place at the right time.

>>151132767
Or you could just not watch season 3 instead of bitching about this children's cartoon like a crybaby for literal decades. I hope you get squished by an elephant like the subhuman you are.

>>151132707
Meanwhile, no one but furries are going to give a shit about GOAT while Kpop Demon Hunters is the most popular movie of the year
Any regrets now Sony?

>>151132634
>Dan Schneider personally mandating highly detailed foot zoom-in scenes, claiming “the standard style gives no impact to the significance of feet in this scene”

>>151134587
This image is autistic as fuck, lmao, it reminds me of those "old SpongeBob meets new SpongeBob" images

It’s also funny cause years later Fanboy & ChumChum would get a resurgence in popularity online.

>>151131877
Yeah, but at least their competitor wouldn't have taken it and turned it into a massive success.

>>151134587
kek

>>151132767
seasons 1-2 would've sucked ass, and you wouldn't have cared about it in the first place.

>>151131783 (OP)
I honestly think Nick would've smothered Adventure Time before it really got a chance to shine. On CN, Adventure Time basically got to be in the top 1-2 cartoons on the channel and one of the best of the decade. On Nick, Adventure Time would've had to justify its spot in the shadow of SpongeBob and whatever new idea Butch Hartman had that day.

>>151137252
It was too different and new for them to comprehend. Nick would've been less respectful of Pen's vision.

>>151131877
Absolutely

>>151131877
Yes but not as bad as the showrunners ruined it. It might've been good for longer than three seasons if Nick had it.

>>151137653
I feel pretty confident in saying absolutely not. The fact they passed on it says it all, really.

>>151137653
the early seasons were fun but the later seasons are kino

Hanna-Barbera/Cartoon Network turned down Fairly Odd Parents

Can we talk about this kind of Fumbles?

>is there a bigger fumble in animation history than Nickelodeon passing on Adventure Time?
There are list of Nickelodeon fumbles throughout history.

>>151131783 (OP)
Adventure Time was always just Butchslop: CN Edition

>simplistic art style with heavy reliance on comedy
>boy with supernatural sidekick and enemies
>mad scientist/teacher character who was once normal but corrupted by magic
>third season and beyond is just non-stop wasted potential
>most people only care for it now for shipping autism

>>151131783 (OP)
Canceled early so we won't ever get to experience those horrible later seasons? Damn Nick would have saved us all.

>>151134587
How funny indeed.

>>151135187
This is true. AT only got as popular as it did because Regular Show and Gumball were right there with it. If Nick had kept it, AT would have ran alongside Planet Sheen and Tuff Puppy and likely have fallen into obscurity very fast.

>>151134500
Miraculous as well. Nick even aired its 1st season before Disney acquired it.

Cartoon Network losing Paul Rudish to Disney

>>151131783 (OP)
I fumbled their balls.

i mean Nickelodeon would either milk the show out or screw it over like most nicktoons after spongebob if it did came out on nickelodeon.

>>151141817
although to be fair, Cartoon Network could have easily screwed Adventure Time over, it could have just gotten 2 seasons and have it been screwed by the network, i mean it was supposed to premiere around late 2009 but it got Delayed to April 2010 (proof:https://www.flickr.com/photos/84568447@N00/3019966109/),

hell even on the production side for all we know:
Adventure Time could have been either scrapped during production or turned into a live action series by executive meddling if Cartoon Network was that malicious enough to go there.

>>151141904
I honestly would not put it pass Cartoon Network to actually do that last part considering the executive meddling bullshit they did in their entire history.

>>151141904
>whatever, it's 2009!

>sequel series after a 10 season series (that basically revitalized Cartoon Network and modern TV animation alongside Regular Show) and a bunch miniseries with another spinoff and movie on the way
And /co/ wants to convince themselves Adventure Time was a failure?

>>151131783 (OP)
Scoob! was supposed to be the start of a Hanna-Barbera cinematic universe.

>>151131783 (OP)
Eh. It would've been cancelled after one or two seasons for not being Spongebob.

>>151141343
>Paul Rudish
What does he do?

>>151142257
What is it about Nick obsessing with Spongebob?

>>151132879
I like how Adventure Time looks.

>>151143370
Spongebob was and still is immensely successful and Nick desperately wishes it could replicate that.

>>151134587
How is Fanboy and Chum Chum creator anyway?

>>151135719
Why the fuck you say that like it's a good thing? Do you want companies to be anti-competitive against other by artifically shrinking the pool of cartoons made from competitors so they don't end up being outperformed? Leaving less stuff for us to watch and less feedback loop for them to figure out what audiences want so the industry can die out in silence (like it kind of is doing right now)? Fuck off, seriously.

>>151143968
currently executive producer at netflix for the stranger things animated series.

If that were true, then good for him, really.

No one actually enjoys F&C unironically.

>>151145785
I do, but only as a kid. Right now, I get why no one really enjoy this show. Still love Boog and Lenny though, they're the only best thing in the show than the main duo.

Wrong

>>151139847
Yes we can

>>151132879
Fanboy and Chum Chum was not very expressive in its animation. Objects fail to carry their gravity, weight and texture properly. Everything feels like plastic, even the humans. AT on the other hand was extremely detailed when it needed to be. Just look at The Lich, Ricardio, how something is always going on in the background. Pain is properly conveyed, you can feel everything shown.

>>151134294
Bro she made everyone in her kingdom retarded because she’s too autistic to handle anything beyond that. Everything she does is for the sake of control.

>>151134151
Wild how Ice King treats Gunther better than PB treats her own citizens. Guarantee would be a much nicer life to be a snow golem in the ice kingdom instead of a candy person in the candy kingdom.

>>151155486
When the nice king died to return that bubblegum loony back to her real awful self, I tuned out of the whole Fionna and Cake season.
Also, everything about Fiona’s “I accidentally turn stuff normal” was the worst kind of writing possible. It was an element that shouldn’t even be in the show at all.

I initially thought Viacom was Father wearing a suit.

>>151152162
His beta name is Pen, because he's the main character and we see his perspective. He's "writing" the story for us to see

I'm sorry but which show is still airing on cable TV again? Which has been reduced to spinoffs aimed at 20 something year old fat tumblrinas?

>>151159359
Because AT ended? The fact that it's been over 16 years and it's making new content is a feat in itself
