“The Acolyte is doing fine… from a certain point of view.”

Better is such a low bar. It’s going to be hard for this show to be worse, as there are no established characters to ruin. Except Yoda. And Darth Plagueis maybe. But it’s far from a good show, as far as I’m concerned.

Maybe? Definitely some kind of bumblebee.

Hast du das lächerliche Schauspiel letzte Nacht gesehen?

My family is mostly vegan. Only my sister eats hotdogs from time to time.

So you are saying you aren’t vegan.

Isn’t that the logic here?

This doesn’t address anything I’ve said. But just downvote away, I guess.

Sibling?

I wouldn’t say that’s how jokes work. Some things need to be established first. The joke is not, that he is non binary. It’s a play with words, “agenda” in this case. Him being genderless is supposed to be the baseline. This is contradicted by him being a Warner brother. So the joke is already falling apart during the setup. If the joke was about him being a chicken, it wouldn’t have made sense either, because it was never established before. And can’t explained with cartoon logic.

It feels like people are automatically mad at me for criticizing the joke, because the topic is gender politics. I never said he can’t be non binary, I don’t care, but there was never a basis for this. Or so I thought. As others have pointed out, there apparently was an episode or a comic where this was mentioned.

It’s a joke based on Yakko not having a gender. Which doesn’t make sense. Therefore my confusion.

Um… they are called the Warner Brothers (and the Warner Sister). Is he non binary now?

What’s with the weird filter, though.

Agreed. Not only do they spend less time, they also waste more time.

The Netflix show has a runtime of 430 minutes. The original is 477 minutes. So it’s actually less.

Are we watching the same show?

sloppy, really low frame rate

It’s no Lion King, but I wouldn’t call it sloppy. The animation is simple, that’s true. But it’s funny you mention anime, because that’s a typical anime problem, with often still images with only the mouth moving. That’s because it’s faster and cheaper, so they can focus their energy on the fight scenes. If it bothers you here, it should bother you in anime.

poorly drawn

Again, I don’t know what you mean. I’m literally watching the show as I write this. You can say that you don’t like the art style. That’s your personal preference. But poorly drawn just seems objectively untrue.

for the time, it was poorly animated

See, I would argue that modern shows are often poorly animated. If you compare earlier Simpsons episodes to newer ones, you can see a clear difference. I believe it happened when they switched to computer animation. The new stuff is cleaner, with a higher frame rate, but imo lacks the soul. There are probably countless of examples. Spongebob would be another one. Again, the show is not the pinnacle of animation, “poorly” is just not the right word. If you want to watch an actually poorly animated show, just watch Invincible.

I’d have to take your word for it. I can’t remember it at all.

I watched the show. The music never stood out to me, one way or the other. It was just… there. On the other hand, I’m rewatching the original right now. And I always actively notice how great the soundtrack is.

I give you the pseudo anime style, but how exactly is it badly animated?

The person being criticized happens to be a woman. Musk has been criticized for the same shit, back when he tried to sue the guy tracking his private jet on Twitter. Guess who’s trying to do the same thing right now?

If she didn’t try sue someone for posting public information, nobody would have cared. Textbook Streisand effect. I believe, she deserves to be called out for that.

There is no point in calling out Musk anymore. Everyone already knows he is a piece of shit.

Hard disagree. Filoni made Ahsoka, which is trash. He’s the executive producer of The Book of Boba Fett, which is trash. He’s the executive producer and wrote some episodes of The Mandalorian, which started promising and then turned to trash. So yeah. He fits right in with anything Disney created.

I think the one thing you shouldn’t do is posting her face on social media.
