Make a List of Some of Your Most Controversial Takes!

I find the same thing happened to modern anime. A gag, a character design, a plot, fanservice, and whatever got copied copied copied copied copied copied copied to the point that, yeah, it needs a creative bomb of some sort.

This might honestly be a big part of it. It's all the repetition of the same tropes, over and over. A formula that has to be followed.

It also reminds me of something Hayao Miyazaki said (at least I think he did), how a lot of modern anime animators and creators only imitate the media they like, instead of being inspired by the world around them.

And it's what sells. It all well and good to make an original work, but if no one reads/watches it, it doesn't matter. Look at tapas and the million of princess stories.

Another hot take: Blade Runner (other than the ending speech) is garbage.

Aliens is the only good movie from the series. Alien is a 35 minute episode drawn out to a movie and the rest are horrible.

That is the saddest thing. Tapas shoves the same dreck down our throats at every opportunity while utterly ignoring all the good stuff, and they do it because it sells. All those princess (and archduke, and villain/villainess, and male/female lead) stories are to writing what McDonald's is to hamburgers. McDonalds sells a metric shit ton of Big Macs, but if you're looking for good food you don't go to McDonald's.

The comment had less to do with what sells. Miyazaki's work also sells. It's more that the individual artists have entered a feedback loop.

You can still make all those villainess romance stories, while also taking inspiration from outside sources, or just life itself. Hell, they might actually become good then.

Alien: Romulus was pretty good though.

Agree with you on Edward there. Edward is creepy.

Why??? Why did I watch Twilight with my mom??? Whyyyyy?

Well… I wanted to see what all the fuss was about around the movies. Worst mistake of my life!

[abigaillmartin]

Also… Jacob was really weird. The whole baby thing. I don’t care if the story is supernatural mom. It weirded me out! The wolf man hit on the baby!

Now… Houdini as a vampire. I’m on board!

I know what to do for my next fanfiction ya’ll.

And in case you’re wondering… NO! He will NOT sparkle in the sun!

Tbf, you'll take Houdini anything.

Dress him up as a clown and both you and @pjthetoonaddict can have something to go nuts over.

Another controversial idea?

I don't believe a long life is necessarily a blessing even if many consider it to be a blessing. It just IS.

[abigaillmartin]

I think I’ve driven all you here a little crazy. Lol.

Honestly… he’d be cute as a clown just don’t make him scary.

[abigaillmartin]

The good stuff like Elsie!

[KevinReijnders]

[abigaillmartin]

Hang hang on I gotta draw this. Later.

[Vikthetoonaddict]

@KevinReijnders I've just wandered into this forum, and it seems like I'm catching strays left and right lol. Well, I guess I'm the designated Clown Person. Honk Honk.

[abigaillmartin]
