Cartoon/Western Animation General

Well, I didn’t see that one coming at all.

LACKADAISY (Pilot)
this was pretty great. love the vibs of 1920s.

So…

Chris McClean got a new voice actor for the Total Drama Island revival

And apparently the reason is for his previous voice actor Christian Potenza allegedly sexually abusing several beginner voice actors he was supposed to be mentoring

These are just allegations ATM but from what I’ve heard they seem pretty serious

I’m just expecting another good show, I like to be screwed over again like usual.

I finally saw the Lackadaisy pilot, and… I loved it. I have some minor complaints, but this is definitely something I’ll be looking forward to seeing more of.

Independent animation really has been firing on all cylinders, hasn’t it?

@SleepySteve
Well, at least he won’t return, so… 🤷

When The Flintstones originally ran on ABC, it was sponsored by Winston cigarettes, then a brand of R.J. Reynolds. Commercials famously featured the cast whipping up Winston cigarettes and boasting about the taste.

All four of the main voice actors of the show died of smoking-related illnesses in the years that followed.

ok so hear me out on this robbie reyes ghost rider cartoon but it’s made by the animaterers behind motorcity and written by gendy and it’s rated pg-13 or above.

Always remember to blame the fruity little club.

Booty Boogie is top of the list on my favorite songs from the “Donkey Kong Country” cartoon series.

Don’t forget about this long anticipated gem:

It was finally released just 7 days ago, after an almost 7 year wait!

Between it and LACKADAISY, this past week has been great for Independent Western Animation.

I’m starting to get an interest in listening to Disney songs in Japanese.

@Jade Kitsune
I like the Japanese Mulan soundtrack.

Check the song “I’ll Make a Man Out of You” in Chinese, it’s sung by Jackie Chan himself who voices General Li Shang.

@Dex Stewart
I think the only song Disney’s ever made that was made in the US but with Japanese singers was the Sugar Rush theme song from “Wreck-It Ralph”.

@Angrybrony

“Lunkhead” is King K. Rool’s favorite insult in the Donkey Kong Country cartoon.

Wow I did not know that about her, knowing this she would have been perfect to play Toph.

@Dr_Osaka
Not sure she has that kind of range, but it does make her catchphrase a bit sad.

@Lord WyrmSpawN
Tell me I’m pretty?

@Vivace
Yes.

What’s with Disney doing more of these Live-Action remakes?

@NitroFury
People keep watching them.
