This is actually a really good talk overall on cartoon animation. Some stuff I didn't even realize about the Simpsons/KITH.
TW: Doug is pro/neutral to AI art

This is actually a really good talk overall on cartoon animation...
Enough with the ai, we get it ai is here everyone will be butt slave to the ai
unironically using "TW"
DONE
why did he throw ninja turtles under the bus lol
It's a shame he doesn't make comics anymore. Unless he backtracked. There's a lot I disagree with him on, but I've always liked his art. I know he had an art show recently at least.
what a bitter faggot, no wonder he is on ai bandwagon
Ninja Turtles has a timeless ability to make people salty, it gets thrown under the bus a lot.
twitter post
talk
I expected a discussion. Where is it?!
Yeah. I do not respect Doug much as a person these days, but I'll always respect his work. Earthworm Jim remains one of my favorite games.
>video, if you don't like ai you are an evil artists that no one cares about, trying to stop everyone from making their masterpiece, also I hate everyone that was more successful than me. I want all the other artists to not have jobs because i failed.
He also got deeply into NFTs, for perspective.
Doug doesn't align with most artists, not surprised he's promoting AI. I don't hate AI as much as most of Anon Babble, I'm just saying it's unsurprising.
He started to lose me when he said anime, Simpsons, KOLH weren’t “real” animation just because they’re not animated on 1’s or whatever, it’s kind of a reductive way of viewing art
Too bad Doug made Earthworm Jim into something everyone shuns and hates now. would have loved to see a more accurate take on the character in a cartoon. The games were way more Spumco and less Animaniacs.
why do so many failed artists become pollical, I don't get it. all he talks about is politics at the most basic level. boomer rightwing crap, like anyone cares, draw cartoons faggot, no one cares about "back in my day thing were better" and "men are not men like they were back in my day "
Yeah...it's not just that he insulted the rainbow brigade and got shit for it on twitter, he is actually an asshole to pretty much anyone.
Monkey Wrench redesign looking good!
His political opinions never really rise much above typical boomer dad with a grill. No idea why he even bothers with it.
Seems like if you are an artist, and you depend on art shit for your livelihood, and you use social media a lot, you pretty much need to just shut the fuck up about opinions and politics and just do art for the sake of doing art. It's the same game every working stiff plays. You don't bring up hot button shit in an office, you keep that shit to yourself until you are alone with friends. People who depend on peddling shit online are in the same boat, twitter is the office.
OP, you're a fucking moron. I have no respect for you and I never will. Dumb-ass.
I respect doug alot though, so seeing this kind of stuff from him just makes me sad... I had no idea he just does "politics" now... That sucks.
pro AI
pro NFTs
pro John K
pro Butch Hartman
anti lgbt
anti piracy
anti porn
Doug has the most Anon Babblentrarian takes
Aside from the NFT and AI he’s pretty based
He doesn't just "do politics", he post several videos daily where he rambles about how "they" are apparently "owning" the libs, it's sad, he looks like an escaped mental patient.
he desperate for money want to do what joe rogen did.
That's more or less what I meant by "politics"
same deal as the sinfest guy...
Don Rosa: "Sorry this is NOT Ducktales"
omg so based
Doug Tennapel: "I stopped trying to sell to people who won't even take it for free"
omg so bitter what an asshole
So, is it a video posted on Twitter then? Damn, got to use the link.....

He's nowhere near as bad as the Sinfest guy, thankfully.
He also has an alternate YT channel where he posts the same stuff but under a fake name and pic.
I tend to separate the art from the artist, and I personally and absolutely love Earthworm Jim, Neverhood and Catscratch, and will continue to do so until the end of time. Having that said, TenNaple is a huge retard faggot
I do feel bad that he can't hack it out selling art when he's such a great visual artist. But he's an awful storyteller, and chastising his audience for being "story illiterate" makes it hard to sympathize with him much further.
Doug is pro/neutral to AI art
Why tho? Even most of the right wing artists I follow that aren't complete hacks are against it for obvious reasons. Is he just that bitter about being a has-been?
he's an awful storyteller
Why?
Guy who used to have clout, respect, and influence is now old and sees younger people assuming the role that he used to enjoy. Some choose to take on a mentorship role, celebrate the new creators, and support them. Others try to desperately clutch to their old role. In his case, he hasn’t really created anything in awhile so it’s harder to prop himself up as an artist who’s “still got it”. Instead, he needs to punch down and denigrate those who feel the most threatening in an effort to prop himself up.
Most old people who complain about young people not being (fill in the blank) anymore are just poorly coping with the aging process.
His characters feel like props. They don't have personality or depth outside of what the story needs them to have, so every conversation and interaction feels like a rote exercise instead of a real human experience. I can't get myself to care about any of his characters, so subsequently I can't get invested in the plot.
It's unfortunate because a lot of his books have neat concepts, but he just can't deliver on those concepts when things are put to motion. I get the sense that TenNapel just has a very shallow understanding of human nature in general and has either never tried, or is neurologically unable to reflect on what makes people tick.
why do so many failed artists become pollical
Most artists end up being politically vocal in some form. Not just true of Hollywood history, either.
I'm a bisexual man and I don't give a fuck about TenNapel's opinions on lgbt people and his stance on AI is reasonable
I just love his work
Zoomer moment
Leftists refusing to buy your products because you’re a Christian isn’t “failing.”
Doug is pro/neutral to AI art
Ok... so?
I'd buy a new Earthworm Jim
What did you all think of the 90s Earthworm Jim cartoon?
It was good, although you began to see Homer consuming Dan Castellanata's range
a shame the amico died stillborn
fun
Some nice jokes here and there, though the intro kinda annoys me.
Yeah. He only really seems to switch between Homer, Quimby and Grandpa Simpson for certain roles. Sometimes Willie.
Still fun to listen to though.
"Time for Plan A: Senseless violence!"
He was Megavolt back in the day, but I can't blame him, if one of my voices hit the goldmine I'd nurture and cultivate that too.
Seems to be a common thing between most of the regulsr VAs that popped up in cartoons across the 90s and 00s. The only VA I can say that avoids this problem (most of the time) was Billy West. Atleast in the case of Futurama.
seems he doesn't care about people making money off mass media/pop media art
>he stuck in the 90s
It's fine, but lacking in the grimy feel the games had. The humor was just kind of lesser animaniacs. But one of the better game adaptations for the time.
why does a worm have tiddies
Porn isn’t the same thing as art.
Gizzards and/or semen production/intake chambers
Whoops forgot my pic
