Disney General - The saddest fandom on Earth

[nostalgiasorrow]

What's with Disney pushing Encanto so hard? Their Disney Animation Twitter pages is practically pushing out Encanto only content. Don't remember them doing the same with their other IPs

Or any of the 2000s films with cult followings. Disney neutered their animation division hard back then thanks to Pixar, so works like Treasure Planet, Atlantis, Meet the Robinsons, and others never got the care they needed to be the successes they should have been.

Enough with the remakes. Can you even image how some of the Alien characters in Treasure Planet would look like in a live-action remake?

I rather they attempt to bring back Atlantis or Treasure Planet through an animated series, but judging by the new Proud Family series , that's nothing hopeful either.

As of January 30, 2022, Encanto has grossed $93.8 million in the United States and Canada, and $134.9 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $228.7 million. Factoring in both the film's production budget and marketing expenses, along with the theaters' share of revenues, it is estimated to need to gross at least $400 million worldwide to break even.

Gotta get that return on investment somehow!

Encanto is being pushed super hard. I just watched a thoroughly unrelated video on YouTube, and one of the recommends was, you guessed it, some sort of Encanto video. I've been seeing a ton of Encanto shit all over the internet within the last couple weeks, but it doesn't feel like an especially natural trend. Gonna take a guess and say that top influencers and sponsors are getting paid to produce Encanto videos and shit.

That one song from it is apparently a big hit... but it doesn't seem to be helping the film any.

Should've renamed the song "We Don't Talk About Encanto".

Edit:
Speaking of which, remember the concept art I posted earlier, and how I said it looked way better than the final movie? We got a snippet of actual, hand-drawn animation featuring it.

I....just....give me a moment.......

It's led to an uprising of Twitter "artists" whining about fan-artists not coloring the main girl's skin the right way. (Screenshots courtesy from a Chilean friend who saw this one example go down.)

That pic was drawn by a LatAM artist who lives in Japan who got bullied off of Twitter for a time over this before LatAM Twitter jumped in to kick cxsmicverge into hiding.

It was so noticeable a Japanese blog did an article about it.

The hand drawn animation looks about on par with the actual movie, kinda weak. The poses need to be pushed more. They seriously pushed out Glen Keane though, and he was the like the last master animator they had. If Disney ever brings back 2D animation, they need to send their animators to like Goublins in France so they can learn how to push things to their limit, or apologize to Glen and have him come teach them how to do it right, before he's too old.

not sure if this was posted earlier Walt Disney Animation Announces 2022 2D/Hand-Drawn Trainee Program

I forgot about it. If Glen Keane or a European master animator isn't teaching it, it's kinda worthless.

After reading through this thread. I wonder if Disney intentionally enjoys pissing of their sane fans into becoming haters, while their most devoted, bat shit insane white knights lap everything up from Disney?

Also, IMO, I think the Disney Spergs are up there with Sonic The Hedgehog Spergs, except for one major difference:

At least some Sonic Spergs are high functioning enough to learn game coding, hence, making some rather interesting ROM Hacks and Homebrews. Despite what one thinks, making games and coding them, even fangames, takes a lot of hard work and devotion.

Meanwhile, the Disney Spergs are still making Disney recolors and sloppily putting together no assed "Adventure Team" videos.

Make what you all may of this.

there's a few interesting developments, like the VR recreations of attractions or Martin's stuff or the various nutters who break into old dead attractions (or hop out of the car from dying attractions)

Wow... I dig this...

I wonder if this is a clever "take that" to Disney's draconic way of thinking?

Still better than those crappy Disney crossover fanworks that make little to no sense (double points if the art is all recolors).

Modern Disney is what happens when a company that's too big to fail is taken to its logical, narcoleptic conclusion. When all you have to do to print payola is to take one of your animated classics (or not-so-classics), spray some ugly live action CGI paint over it, and throw in a few woke good boy points for good measure, guess what TF they're gonna make for-fucking-ever? I asked myself the same question not too long ago: "When did Disney go from 'when you wish upon a star' to 'when an executive wants a brand-new car'?" And then it hit me: it was always this way. Case in point:

Notice how, between the early 90s and mid-2000s, there was a onslaught of DTV sequels to said animated classics? It's for the same reason that the live-action remakes exist:

They made a loooooot of moolah for old Michael Rat. The fault lies with the general public here, as well. Instead of rejecting this slop, they gladly gave the Rat their cash, because, fuck, something's gotta shut little Timmy/Tara up for a couple of hours. It's sad, really.

Then Timmy/Tara will end up growing up into a lolcow who is married to a Disney character on an Astral Plain, or some shit like that. It happened to a lot of lolcows here for that matter.

Me thinks their parents need to stop using the Timmies/Taras as punching bags, and act like adult authority figures.

iirc wasn't there even internal conflicts of people going "bruh" at the highers-up going full Land Before Time XVII with the direct-to-video shit?

 

[RumblyTumbly]

I remember going into video stores at the time and going "Land Before Time and Disney sequels everywhere! Do people watch these???"

Apparently, they did.

They even have an unironic fandom, consisted of mentally stunted fan babies and cartoonaboos.

The Cartoon Community/Kiddie Media communities: NOT EVEN ONCE!

I don't know but I hope that it gets over soon, haven't seen the movie but every retarded take about it and people pushing the latinx bullshit makes me not wanting to.
