Animation


Does anyone else think Akom Productions animation for The Simpsons looks the best compared to Rough Draft animation an Anivision animation?

reply

I believe it was Radar Love

reply

What?

reply

The Radar Love style of animation based on the song by Golden Earring. It features larger than life characters much like some of the later zelda games

reply

What does this have to do with anything?

reply

I thought we were talking about Simpsons animation?

reply

We are. But I don't know if Radar Love is animation.

reply

Do you remember those old commercials warning kids to stay off drugs or read or eat their own veggies and they had that big green monster with his face hanging out with his big mouth wide open and dripping goo everyhwer?

reply

No.

reply

Oh ok. It is fairly old school Simpsons have used the technique in some of their fantasy/dream kinda sequence stuff. It's pretty cool.

reply

I believe sapphirelight is reffering to the prodiction houses that animated the simpsons and not the style used. I don't know which episodes were animated by which production house so I can't comment.

reply

That’s not what he meant

reply

I'm a she but you're right.

reply

Oh sorry my bad

reply

Marlon Brando?

reply

Global Warming?

reply

Couldn't be anything else now could it?

reply

What are you guys on about?

reply

Which part are you stuck on ?

reply

What you're saying.

reply

Explain which part

reply

What do Marlon Brando and global warming have to do with things?

reply

Like classic
Animation styles right

reply

Yes.

reply

Remember the episode with me burns baseball team

reply

Yeah. What about it?

reply

And I made that ny Yankees comment

reply

Yes?

reply

And there were Yankees on that episode

reply

Yes. What are you saying exactly?

reply

Like how it’s relatable and all ties together

reply

What about it?

reply

In the baseball episode

reply

WHAT ABOUT IT??!

reply

Like how all the animation styles tie together especially the ones I said even though they are the abridged versions of certain things rather than an homage type deeeleeey. And I was using the baseball episode as a reference.

reply

OK, I guess.

reply

The regulars here are Troll Babies.

reply

What?

reply

Satan doesn't get your animation things

reply

Huh?

reply

It could be many a thing . NY Yankees even

reply

Respectfully disagree. If you said it's a fourth dimensional paradox, I would concur wholeheartedly.

reply

What are you talking about?

reply

He is talking about the fourth wall in the dimentional universal source code

reply

What's that?

reply

You know the fourth wall on a tv show? It breaks when a character talks directly to the viewing audience through a close up b shot

reply

Yes, I know what that is.

reply

Yeah cause that is what he was refering to

reply

All right.

reply

Like you know the fourth dimentional paradox theory related to cartoons right

reply

I think so.

reply

Like when they know you are watching them on the tv there.

reply

Yes I know.

reply

Like they turn away and look right at you. like actually you the viewer, they are having a one on one conversation only for you to hear and not other members of the tv universe you specifically you, they specifically stated!

reply

I get it. You can stop responding.

reply

Saphhirenlight its clear capitainbucky is a lazy troll that speaks gibberish to get a resonse from you. What seasons are associated with which animation production house? I'd like to know so I can study them and tell what distinguishes them.

Its hard to have further discussion though as you've allowed this asshat captainbuck to spam this thread to the point of it being incoherent. Learn to not feed the trolls. Trolls are fueled either by a histronic personality disorder, or a desire to feed their egos by believing they are in control of you through manipulating you to respond emotionally to their insults. Or in this case they gain the illusion of control by inticing you to respond to their nonsense while believing they have fooled you into thinking you are engaging in a more meaningful dialog. IE they think the jokes on you as you are searching for deeper meaning in their clearly non sensical posts, it makes them feel intelligent for having tricked you. I know the truth of the matter is your playing with them in response but from their perspective they've fooled you. Don't feed trolls either way. If you let them think they are succeeding in playing retarded mind games they will spam out your threads and no one will be able to talk to you.

reply

The relatively later seasons have different animation styles in various episodes so there is no particular season.

reply

I'll have to look into the animation more since I do have most of the seasons. I have noticed though the future seasons have gone more towards cartoonish physics vs the earlier seasons. Matt groening always wanted the sympsons to not follow cartoon physics and wanted the show to be more realistic. I've noticed this influence is gone as more recent simpsons episods will show events like head injuries etc that would have landed characters in the hospital during earlier episodes. Example in a resent episode we see jimbo getting tased by the police in front of moes bar. He glows like christ through the stain glass windows leading crusty the clown to conclude he should renounce judiasm and become a chirstian. I just played a random episode right now from season 28 and a crusty the clown lunch box exploded due to it being a poor quality product. This would never happen in the earlier seasons.

reply

I speculate in a few more years will have simpsons that inflate deflate and all other cartoonish physics that we've seen in more tradition comics.

reply

What?

reply

I'm just saying the simpsons are going to be come more cartoonish in the future rather then following the rules of realistic physics that occured during the earlier seasons.

reply

Oh. How do you know?

reply

Cause of the hints and the things in which they said

reply

Who? When? Where?

reply

They are going to have at least 3 more seasons.

reply

never mind.

reply

Tell me please.

reply

Like you know the animation domination line up right?

reply

Yes?

reply

What was it... Simpsons, Bob's Burgers, Family Guy, American Dad... Am I missing any?

reply

No.

reply

Oh we forgot the Cleveland Show. Have you seen that, have you heard about that?

reply

Yes, but it's not on anymore. I mean it is on, but it's been canceled.

reply

But it was part of animation domination right ?

reply

Yes.

reply

Which is an animation style

reply

Yes?

reply

Of every Sunday

reply

What about it?

reply

Ok so every Sundays these shows are on . Some by the same people

reply

What's your point?

reply

Well we are discussing animation styles.... And this brought up the les fair monsion derriere style that made animation domination popular to my friend

reply

What the heck are you talking about?

reply

Ok. You know how Seth McPharland does American Dad, Clevland Show and The Family Man ?

reply

It's MacFarlane and Family Guy. And what about it?

reply

So those 3 shows style animation would be the same right? Sorry I always confuse Seth MacFarlan with Todd, you know the Spawn Guy right

reply

1. I guess.

2. I don't know what you're talking about.

reply

1. Yes. The Clevland show especially because it features so many of the characters from Family Guy.

2. Have you heard of the comic book Spawn?

reply

No, I haven't.

reply

Oh ok. Then let's just stick to the Sunday animation domination of what you were asking about

reply

I never went off topic, did I?

reply

No not at all. And we have both made some awesome points on animation I feel

reply

Well, how about we just stop because I feel we're getting nowhere.

reply

I think we need to get back to animation basics. How does that sound?

reply

Frankly, I'm tired of talking about it.

reply

Fair enough. I have enjoyed talking about animation and really getting to know what it is and the different styles. Thank you for participating in this frank exchange of ideas. I hope we can talk more in the future.

reply

We figured it out
