80s style is fucking stiff shit with no personality.
For that matter 90s style in OPs pic is bullshit. Look at how different every 90s nicktoon looks
Also while I admire his skill as an animator, I've never liked Harry's style.
For that matter 10 cartoons in that list do indeed look pretty bland since AT came out, except Gravity falls.
But AT at least had the charm of representing children sketches at the beginning of the series.
Why did he use the pilot for Gravity Falls?
>>77662495
Because it has worse animation, and OP wants to prove his point with something that didn't even air on TV.

Well trips McGee it's because Harry gets to make cartoons all he wants and we don't
>>77661997
This >>77662627 , everything is just dumbed down, simpler, more accessible. Also it's easier to make, you need less illustrators and animators if everything is fat. And fatness is accepted social norm nowadays so you can get away with it while making more money.
So, to sum up:
> population is dumber
> population is fatter
> business needs to increase profits while lowering cost
>>77661997
That's not necessarily true. Many of the shows you listed have good animation. Also, the animation of pic related is god tier imho.
>>77662678
That's the most bullshit thing I have read so far. Plenty of show rely on flash or toonboom and most don't have fat main protagonists.

>>77661997

>>77662783
You seem mad.
I tend toward realism when drawing and I don't like Tumblr noses at all but I really prefer the more modern, simple models for cartoons. It's easier on the eyes when animated.
The old 90s stuff is more realistic and still frames look more interesting, but the animation in TV runs was usually pretty stiff compared to AT or OTGW, and regardless of muh Tumblr I feel like the style has legitimate charm when used by someone who knows what he's doing.
I also dislike cartoons made in that angular Hanna-Barbera look, it always struck me as lifeless with the exception of Samurai Jack because SJ had great artistic direction to compensate.
>>77661997
>Thoughts?
Around the late 90's, Hannah Barbera stopped trying to imitate Disney/Comic Books and started going with more stylized characters. This made animation faster/cheaper/more consistent/accessible and even more reliant on writing and cinematography than on off-model takes and visual slapstick.
>>77662783
Oh. I got it mixed up. It has decent animation imho and God tier art. That is what I meant. Also, the other shows you listed have pretty good animation too. I don't see why you're so angry. In your opinion, which animated show has the best art?
>>77663053
How is the animation decent? It's basically South Park tweening with realistic models
>>77661997
Your artwork sucks.
>>77663121
It's not fluid or beautiful but I've seen a lot worse is what I meant. Compared to /co/ standards it's not good but by mainstream standards, I think it holds up. There is a lot more crappy, harder to look at animation out there. **Allen Gregory**.

The eyes are a bit too far apart in the 2010's one.
The only one with eyes that far apart is Clarence, and he's meant to look retarded.
The others have their eyes closer together, or is AT, which doesn't really count because the artstyle in that show is way different to the other 4.

>>77662163
I think it looks cool.
>>77663479
I agree there were trends, but that's also because all of those shows were outsourced to the same handful of studios, and that matters much more than people would like to admit. They'd all look alike because, just like Klasky Csupo, they were all drawn and animated by the same people overseas.
Nowadays, the common thread is flash/toonboom production. There are some things that those programs just do better, and that's guiding design. It's the tail wagging the dog.
Really should remake this but have the characters wear or act like their decade.

Proud Family is really well animated, especially the faces. Its willing to go off model and exaggerate but saves it for important times. It also has very fluid movement.
>>77664799
the show sucked but damn I forgot that the animators actually tried in that one despite most of the 2000s
>>77663372
Wow, somewhere after the 80's and 90's, animation went to hell. My opinion, flash killed it. And because an entire generation of animators were brought up on flash as the "new medium" for animation, that lack the discipline older animators have for design and detail.
>>77665248
>flash killed it
That's certainly part of it. Computers in general made animation quicker and easier at the expense of quality. Lowering the learning curve makes discipline less necessary, allowing projects to tolerate laziness more.
>>77665248
>Implying that shit hasn't been outsourced to the cheapest Asians anyone can get on payroll for ages
Other than big wig movie studios, there aren't really animators making cartoons in America. Production crews for your average cartoon focus on the story, music, storyboards and writing, and voice acting rather than the pain in the ass that animation is. Flash just made their jobs easier, because of course they aren't going to painstakingly draw it by hand when there is an alternative.

>>77663949
Why hate the 2000s, I remember that it had soe pretty good cartoons, and bad ones, just like any other decade. Also, the recession made studios take less risks and cut back money in general, which is why there was a lot of shit in the late 2000s. The early and mid 2000s were pretty good. I mean in this image alone, I can honestly say Avatar was among the best Western cartoons ever made. Teen Titans, Megas XLR, Foster's, KND, FoP, etc. -- there is some good shit here.
Also, I can't be the only one who was raised in the 2000s, are all of y'all like 25+?

It's okay to have preferences, but it's pretty obvious that there's nostalgia-fueled bias. Especially since there's some slight cherry picking going on and it seems like he deliberately chose expressive shots for the 90's and blank stares for the 10's. I know SU tends to be pretty expressive despite it's simplistic face style.
Also while I liked a lot of 90's shows as a kid with that style, I always hated that type of face.

Neither of those character designs actually look aesthetically appealing under either aesthetic, though.
Design is more than just a level of detail; it's what you focus on that draws the audience's eye, how the characters move and how they interact with the world. Both Steven Universe and Darkwing Duck look good in their respective shows because they were designed around their respective art aesthetics.
The 2010 examples are all children, and the actual art for 1990s doesnt line up to the examples, where the humans aren't nearly as exaggerated. The art better fits 2005ish era animation a la Kim Possible and w/e

Cause I think that style disgusting to look at when used in humans.
Even Harry's version makes me want to puke in my mouth, it's so fucking hideous.
It falls so hard on the uncanny valley that it might as well wear parachutes. Robotic looking grotesque humanoids.
As for the modern cartoons, not only they look great for cartoons (hint that something is human but have no anatomical accurate part clashing with gross cartoony eyes, noses and mouth and let the brain do it's work) but also animate a thousand times better.

animaniacs and bonkers, as well as many 90s cartoons with thinner/whacky characters was insanely guilty of "noodle-arms". just reminding you all.
Also, the simpler a model, the easier it is to animate. If you want animation to die, then by all means, push for the more complex models.

>>77676592
everything I said still applies. cartoons nowadays are mostly as boring and bland as it gets when to artstyles it comes to, and the main aesthetic a show possesses greatly influences its own feel and weight as much as its style of animation.
go ahead and tell me you're able to go completely unphased watching ATLA/LOK and not even notice the world of difference it has in contrast to, say, Clarence.
That 2010 style really only applies to AD and Clarence.
In fact, that mock up character specifically just Clarence.90's mock up makes it feel like Dobson made this.
>>77674237
Wasn't there a recently anime that straight up used the 60's style?
>>77677002
You would have a point if the art style were all that mattered in a show. South Park looks like garbage but it constantly pulls out quality episodes. Art is just something to look at. It isn't substance. It can enhance a work, but it isn't the end all be all. Shit like this thread is stuff that retards like you use to justify your nostalgiaright, Doug?

How can they not look pleasing? They are colorfull, well drawn and sure as hell look much more artsy than 80's or 90's cartoonsnot that it's necesary for them to be like that but it's a good touch for this show

Why must so many retards act like they understand of art or animation? Adventure Time and Steven Universe's art are superior in any aspect to regular 80/09's shit that wasn't god tier (read Chuck Jones).
Stop being butthurt cause things are good.

That was the decade.
>>77663372
Hannah-Barbera was fucking awful when it came to actually animating. Been binging Scooby-Doo recently and you could tell they just didn't give half a fuck.
>>77663372
I wish that we could have just stuck with the 90s. The designs were fun, the animation was the best, and the actual shows were, too. 80s looks nice until you see the animation.
>>77681746
And the 80s was actually a step up from the 70s, animation wise.
Thinking about it animation started taking its nosedive at around the mid 60s, which I guess was the moment studios realized that adults were basically over cartoons and kids didn't give a shit about production value.
That's my impression, though. I won't pretend I'm a historian or anything.
>>77661997
sample size is too small. Come back when you have at least fifty cartoons from each era
>>77680030
Hold the fuck up. Are you trying to tell me the quality of animation of Lodoss was actually good? Have you watched that shit? You're lucky if they did the key frames for some of the scenes.
>>77661997
I never liked the Disney TV cartoons. Always hit an uncanny point to me.
>>77680030
>condescending bitch, ice girl, kids saving the world and so on
those were already hugeley popular before eva
>>77681870
The character designs were top fucking notch anyway.
I prefer shit animation that actually looks good to smoothly animated shitty drawings.
Not who you're replying to, but that's my two cents.
>>77681633
1992.
>>77661997
The 90's one reminds me of Johnny Test, which I'm guessing isn't the intended effect of that image.
>>77677248
Doesn't even try to look like Rintaro's women either.
Christ I loved Rintaro's women.
>>77681780
>And the 80s was actually a step up from the 70s, animation wise.
Oh, no, certainly. I'm just saying there is a lot of praise for the look of the 80s in this thread, and a lot of people shitting on the 90s for being wackier in design. I can only assume most of them haven't ever seen any of the cartoons in those pictures.
>>77661997
Why we dont look it from a different angle......
the females!
>>77682165
For some it's also a preference to art quality over animation quality.
Having been born in 89 I grew up with 80s and 90s cartoons, and while the 90s animation was smoother, I always thought the 80s cartoons looked better overall.
>>77682017
Get your eyes checked. Johnny Test didn't have near the level of expression and deformation as that image has, because Johnny Test is badly animated in Flash instead of hand-drawn.
I dare you to find even one screenshot from Johnny Test that resembles that image.
>>77661997
>90s
>five fingers
Nope.
>>77662678
This is a stupid analysis. I'm not sure why you genuinely believe either art-style is more appealing to dumb people than the other.
At some point in every creative art most content creators stop using new tools to make better art, and instead focus on making it faster and cheaper.
>>77678374
I know you're probably not here, but I agree. Animation in the standard cartoon has been watered down to easily drawn doodles originally just seen in webcomics and in the margins of school textbooks.
This says little for the quality of the writing, but if a cartoon isn't pleasing to look at then at the end of the day it's only done half its job.
>>77667006

Tiny Toons did more then Eva.
>>77678981
That show's art style was based on My Life As A Teenage Robot.

Holy shit. I always thought Frosty looked vaguely Japanese, but I never knew Dezaki was the reason why.

I probably liked 40's American animation the best. Private Snafu, Popeye (early Famous Studios), and Elmer Fudd are some of my favorite animated humans.
If someone saw The Brave Little Toaster (1987) at any time now or in the future without knowing when it was made, what do you think they'd guess? The music and visuals are pre-Pixar gold, timeless as can be (grand, orchestral), with only the "Cutting Edge" song toward the film's end dropping many hints about "current" stuff. It sort of looks like the more experimental and stylized animation from the 60's, but it's way too fluid/shaded. And the way it moves sort of looks like higher-budget 90's work, but rounder, softer, and not rebellious or rough at all. Where does this film even fall, stylistically?
>>77674237
Why did the nose disappear from anime girls?
>>77683727
Are all of these guys actually citizens of Japan, or are some of them just Americans with Japanese heritage?
where's the original tweet
>>77684076
Smaller noses are perceived as being cuter. The smallest you can get with the nose still existing is a dot.
>>77684101
Give it time. By 2020 anime girls are gonna go full Final Fantasy Tactics.
>>77684023
The only approximation I know is if Pixar decided to stick with traditional animation. Only way I can explain the style.
>>77684115
>By 2020 anime girls are gonna go full Final Fantasy Tactics.
I am okay with this
>>77684279Me too
>>77684279
>shadow of a nose
Disgusting.
>>77684320
hear hear!
>>77684089
No.
>>77684239
That's all I could think of, too. It looks like a living, breathing vision of Pixar's 2D concept art. Not quite UPA levels of "Picasso", but sort of a re-imagining of the style, that keeps the good stuff UPA left out, like some facial wrinkles and details around the eyes/mouths, but only as much as is needed for the character to look "just right." The old Pixar sketches have a sort of warm and classic feeling, between very detailed old cartoons, and the sometimes sterile, modern work in the 50's and 60's. The old Pixar style is almost timeless, now that I look closely.
>>77684465
Really makes you wonder how different Pixar would be if they stuck with traditional. I'd imagine they'd be just as gripping.
I honestly find the 2010s style much more appealing than the others

I don't honestly know if you're better or worse off. That time between the fall of the Soviet Union and 9/11 was a special time, when people actually thought things might be getting better. Now we just expect things to be shit or get worse.
I truly don't get why people like these 2010s cartoons. The style you think is cute makes me think the characters look ill.
>>77686431
Because they're contrarians, they feel like a special snowflake for "liking" objectively worse shit like modern animation and art styles.
>>77670240
why cant they color in the lines?
>>77684101
>Smaller noses are perceived as being cuter. The smallest you can get with the nose still existing is a dot.
Or no nose at all, which is what happens with a lot of chibi characters.
Big head, big eyes, small mouth, no nose.
>>77686763
Or people just have different tastes in cartoons
>>77686904
Yeah, shit taste which is probably worse because it's actually genuine.
>>77668555
I'm pretty sure that Gravity Falls example is from the intro.
It's a fact that intros are usually way better animated and drawn than the show itself.
>>77686966
Holy shit, people have different opinions on children's cartoons other than mine??
SHIT TASTE XDD
>>77680781
I thought it was the japs response to hi hi puffy and yumi show.

>>77663716
McCracken and Tartakovsky were an inseparable duo in the 90's. They were both art directors, storyboard artists, and writers for eachothers' shows.
Dexter's lab is as much McCracken's show as it is Tartakovsky's; the same can be said for The Powerpuff Girls
Most cartoons today are just better than what we had in the 90's and late 80's. They have more fluid and consistent animation, actual story arcs and character development, are allowed to go dark and be more serious when the situation calls for it.
>>77687612

that anon may have put his point like shit but regardless I don't understand how anons regard SU as ugly.
It's no visual spectacle but it's certainly not ugly. I guess the character designs are odd but the backgrounds are fine
>>77684373
No, they're not all Japanese citizens?
Or no, none of them are Americans?

man oban star racer is an underrated treasure, and was what got me interested in french animation.
Through Oban, you start seeing a lot of their design aesthetics in other french cartoons, like code lyoko or wakfu. It's interesting how that works.
>>77687122
It's not actually. GF backgrounds are just gorgeous.
>>77661997
Aside from Gravity Falls everything from 2010's looks like garbage.
>>77694870
That was one of the most important scenes and it was all about the background it's obvious that that one is going to be better than the rest of them
>>77696135
It must be hard having this much shit taste
The way people talk about modern cartoons, you'd think it wasn't just some new shows.
You'd think the cartoons that came previous represented some archaic stratified order, and the new shows are a revolution bringing about a new age of... something.
Now why would that be the case?
This thread is fucking awful
>>77696135
Phineas and ferb is good though. The art may not be amazing, but the show is fucking great. And bowling for soup always makes for a kick ass intro song.

Pic related. Some of these were used for a couple of seconds at most.
Gravity Falls background's not only can stand on it's own feet, but when compared to the mayority of animated shows right now they look amazing.
>>77701292
>I mean Duck dodgers was just Daffy Duck in SPACE
It's based off the Duck Dodgers shorts.
A Looney Tunes series in the vein of SuperWabbit could be good
