General Discussion Thread of DOOM

Something about that bald one makes me want to break a chair over his smug head.

 

Nice, exactly the reaction we were looking for.

 

Just checking in to see the site still exists. Nice drawings.

 

Made a Weeb meme that none of you will get.

 

BURN IT WITH FIRE

 

I'll take a stab at it and say somebody took James Cameron's bullshit about how to make you characters cute by giving them giant eyes when he made Avatar to the extremes and we end up with those visages of horror.

 

all anime is cringe except for cowboy bebop and metal gear solid, and even mgs is pretty cringe most of the time

 

Some movie was on TV the other day were they made some live action anime bullshit and this girl had giant CGI eyes. looked stupid.

 

Hmm I haven't seen this.

 

An anime called Psycho Pass that is trying way too hard to be GHost in the Shell but made by people who aren't even that smart. The production values are high but the visual direction is just a mess, some times women will look like moe anime lolis and sometimes they would look like they actually have a human skull, sometimes two characters of both styles will share a scene and the show doesn't even seem to realize how jarring it is.

 

Alita? That thing looks like another visual mess. They went all about how "Oh she has big eyes in the manga, so that's why she looks like a deformed alien" but the Christoph Waltz character had a HUGE HUGE Chin in the manga because it had a more cartoony style and they just had him as a regular looking human.

 

Been meaning to watch this. I ain't got a lot of time to watch shit on my own though. I've heard good things about it.

There's more anime than Cowboy Bebop that isn't awful and/or cringe but there is a lot more shit to sift through with anime.

 

Watch Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex. It's really good.
