Nah, same shit went down with Genndy's Popeye. Creative differences, i.e. "we don't know what we want, but we don't like your pitch"

>>77694822
The only reason Hotel Transylvania got made is pretty much Adam Sandler taking over the project.

Could someone tell me what 'medusa' is in this post?

These are the same dumbasses who couldn't handle Spider-Man, one of, if not the most profitable superhero ever.

Though it was weird how, despite how active she was with that not-pony game thing, she never once mentioned what progress she was making with this.
This was the one movie I was actually kind of looking forward to, I should have fucking known.

>>77695148

What happened with her, I assumed she died or something.

>>77695131
Faust was working on a Medusa-related project for Sony. Pretty self-explanatory Not much was revealed

Is Lauren Faust the most unlucky person on animation business?


Holy fuck. Everything she touches explodes.

Do you remember Lauren and that animated movie about a sword?

>>77695162
Ke$ha: My producer has been sexually assaulting me for years. I want to work with someone else.
Sony: Are you trying to get out of your contract with us?
Ke$ha: No, I'm fine with working with you. I just want to have a different producer while I do it.
Sony: Either work with him or not at all. We'll fight you in court over this.

>>77695196
No

As far as the past 5 years goes, probably.

>>77695183
Maybe it's less unluckiness and more she doesn't know when to compromise until she can finally gain enough pull to do what she wants with less interference.

>>77695196
You mean Quest for Camelot? That movie sucks, and she thinks so too.

>>77695050
Just because Faust is involved with it doesn't mean it's going to be the next horse show. In most cases, something like that is a rarity that only occurs once in a career.

>>77695221
Jesus, is that why nobody heard of her since?

>>77695183
she's just aggressive with the stuff she works on, constantly fights for her own vision rather than the company's

>>77695101
They had so much promise back when Cloudy came out. And Surf's Up and even the original Open Season were okay movies too.

Then it all went to hell.

>>77695291
Pretty much... Even if you don't like her music, nobody should have to put up with that bullshit

>>77695287
But it counts for something. It's profitable enough that it's silly to not give Faust autonomy in the hopes she'll make something close.

>>77695183
Should make her own company with Genndy and Weisman.
Either they produce the best show ever or they break the seventh seal.

>>77695287
>implying ponyfags won't throw money at the next thing Faust is involved in

>>77694822

Welp, sony just lost the creator of the best cartoons, Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends and the retarded cashcow MLP.

Those guys are really retarded

>>77695287
Obviously you can't ever expect something to be the next MLP, something as big as that will never be duplicated, at least not intentionally, but just by name alone she should have had some weight to her.
I mean, with her being the "herald" of FiM, Sony could have let her produce a pile of shit and still gotten some pony bucks.

You know how many amazing animators that guy's work with? It would be a new golden age.

>>77695511
Or they become the next Bluth, make a good show/movie, and then slowly fade into redundancy.

>Emoji movie
YOU CANNOT MAKE THIS SHIT UP

It is bizarre, but on the board that must not be named, everyone is bashing Faust. Here, on the other hand, are more people bashing Sony. Has Sony really killed more animated projects than this due to being retarded? I'm out of the loop.

>>77695050

that's because they get off on McCarthy

Don't know if this is true or not but can you blame her? The entire idea of sensationalizing celebrities personal lives is stupid and kinda fucked up.

>>77696001
How big are they? Would she have to cut it up so it would flush?

>>77696050
I don't know anything about it, truthfully, though judging by /mlp/'s thread about it, it's shit, but, akin to Skullgirls, people are more interested in the characters than the actual game or story of the game. At least I think, cause I can't follow that thread at all.

>>77696081
I think he was making more of a comment about how shitty her luck is that your miscarriage has essentially now become a meme.

Them's Fightin' Herds. They wanted it to be Stampede, but that name is copyright.

>>77696289
reminder: mods consider it mlp related so it belongs to /mlp/

>>77696128
people are more interested in the characters than the actual game or story of the game

that's because the characters are all that are made well enough to talk about. they have no stages ready, few pieces of music to discuss, the characters outside the cow and reindeer aren't polished enough to discuss, and just got through a first pass of a character's idle stance. I'd link it but /co/-/mlp/ crossboarding doesn't work.

I'm well aware, but I wasn't going to leave an innocent question unanswered. Are Disney, Pixar, and Dreamworks the only companies that are making animated films right now? Is that really it?

>>77696399
There's Blue Sky and Illumination. And occassionally Laika.

>>77696372
That's fucking retarded. Though, what do you expect from the mods.

>>77696447
It's either /mlp/ or it's /v/.
Either way, it doesn't belong on /co/.

>>77696425
That's still less than 10. That's pretty sad. If you wanted to pitch a cartoon for TV, what would be the best place to do it? It seems like Disney is the creator's golden egg right now, but then the shows get fucked by horrid scheduling.

>>77696466

Phil Lord said something about the company a year back or so about how awful it was working there.

This belongs in /mlp/, just like Them's Fightin' Herds.

Joking aside, I audibly groaned with shock and disgust when this happened. I love Faust's work. She has this amazing knack for making something that's adorable and girly, but not condescending. She did it with MLP, she did it with Super Best Friends Forever, and now she won't get to do it with Medusa. Fucking hell.

>>77695907

If that's true, it's only because there's far more of the show that she didn't do (4 seasons, as she was only *really* involved with the first and was minimally involved in the second) than there is that she did.

Not all of us like the Perfect World of Pretty Princess McCarthy, but sadly that's all we've got. Losing AKR to Disney is going to suck, though fortunately we've still got M.A. Larson around for now.

>>77697355

>>77697724
I love Craig's expression in this

>>77697724
The only reason anyone likes Tara Strong is because she's constantly showing cleavage to neckbeard fanboys. She's an average at best voice actor but it's so easy to pander to bronies that they think she's some kind of deity.

>>77697774
That's what marriage does to a man. It sucks the joy out of life.

>>77697799
She's an old woman past her prime. She can't compete with 20 something young women. So she panders to the desperate thirsty simps.

You say that like it's a negative thing

>>77697799
>>77697724
I still don't get this hateboner for Tara Strong. She's a voice actress that tries to entertain her adult fans. Is that so wrong?

>>77695833
Would bet that 60% of current fans came during the hiatus between s2 and s3 or later. So to them, Faust is nothing but a ghost long gone with no current influence and way too many unjustified fans. "She only wrote 2 of the worst episodes, she wasn't that important to the show" is a common (and hilariously stupid) argument.

>>77698132
She did a voice for The Enemy Show, so I have to constantly rail against her so everyone will think I'm cool.

>>77698132
She's an attention whore.

>>77698732
but I like lookin at her tatas so it's a mutually beneficial relationship

>>77696272
Don't they already have a kid? If that's the case a miscarriage is heartbreaking but wouldn't really spur an adoption.

>>77699189

*tips fedora*

Lauren Faust is the most overrated creator in recent history. Jesus Christ, she gets the idea to spearhead the MLP reboot and suddenly she's some kind of messiah to western animation. Then when she gets fed up that she doesn't have absolute control over something that /isn't hers/ and leaves. And for 4 years she's been nothing but a bitter old frog over Twitter.

Her shows aren't even that good IMO.

>>77700473
Well meme'd.

>>77699476
So because she acts like a whore, suddenly she doesn't deserve rights?

>>77695101
>>77695386

I feel the success of the Smurfs and that kind of stuff made Sony get way too much of an inflated ego. They seem to be concentrated in do everything as formulated as possible as to be guaranteed wins with zero margin of doubt. No risks, just results.

something like Medusa or Popeye have a chance to not be successful with regular movie goer, but a bunch of famous actors, some hip pop songs and a simple safe plot ALWAYS gets the typical fare of Families wanting something to shut up the kids and kids who don't know any better.

costs less and sadly gives them more dosh. Why should they risk time and effort on some Animation folk who are too focused on making things flowing and well animated to ask the real questions like: "What well known actor is "hip" enough these days to easily cast?"

>>77695018
>Sony doesn't like the pitch

>Everyone else that looks at it thinks its great

I've got no hope for Ghostbusters given their hate for quality.

>>77699943
She's on par with Faust for writing individual eps but Faust was much better at keeping things together thematically, you know, like a show runner should.

>>77700607
But anona, they will get all the hip and cool "funny" women actresses Hollywood can bring. That's all it's needed for the movie to be a success!

Sadly this is the triuth. This is why Sony doesn't give a fuck. they have money, an an actor or actress alone can fill seats with the mediocre amurican group of movie-goers. Add the latest single on the radio and you're golden.

Is there a "Punished Faust" edit yet?

>>77700723
Though this is dealing with a pedigree that people will expect and its not really going to have anything that matters from the original. Might as well be another fucking movie without the Ghostbusters name.

>>77700878
Yes, but a recognizable title guarantees more people than a fully original title.

As I said, they don't care what kind of people see it and what their opinions they are. they just need them to fill the seats and pay the tickets.

>>77701015

Its going to Jem or at most Fourstick. Or more to point it needs to.

Sony needs to hurt. We need Justice.

I can't wait for new Ghostbusters to be a hit

>>77700699

Even Faust herself admits that McCarthy is a better writer.

Faust is an average writer. Great showrunner and everything, but her writing is meh.

>>77696008
It's true. I was a rabid pony fan back in 2010/2011, and the fact that Lauren was pregnant was a well known thing among the fandom. It was supposed to be a secret but it leaked out when one of her friends made it public on Facebook and of course the fandom screencapped it to hell and back. She even admitted in a tweet once I think.

Another year passed and it kind of dropped from everyone's mind, until people started asking "Wait, what about that baby?"

The rest is history.

>>77694822

>creative differences

code for she punched a bitch in the throat

>>77695833
It's actually fucking hilarious. /mlp/ has literally been overrun with people who genuinely enjoy Equestria Girls and don't see it as an abomination in any way. It's also full of people who believe McCarthy is anything other than a yes-woman hack.

Honestly I think at this point they're just happy that McCarthy keeps their waifus alive by churning out episodes. It's sad to see what they've become, but that's what it is.

>>77695334

She's also a far better writer of episodes than Faust was those things are not mutually exclusive.

I don't know about the other bandwagonning freaks who think season 2 is the best thing ever. But I personally hate her for some very different reasons.
Namely not sticking with her fanbase, leading it, getting it fully on her side, and telling them to crowdfund her galaxy girls show and a new pony show featuring Luna as a main character. That being the primary reason why I'm disappointed in her. Her mentality of doing nothing about it when she could really save the animation era to an extent.
Plus she's kinda talentless when it comes to good humour, pacing and story. But it's alright, she could hire some genuinely good writers, unlike those hacks at CN which think Ren and Stimpy is quality.

The second, third and fourth ones are a bunch of reasons which don't concern me.
Like why did she marry Craig McCracken, he's ugly and less talented than Tartavosky. Why did she accept to work for CN when her eloquent dialogue, cutesy designs and overall style is much more fitting for Disney.
Why does she yell about more girl shows when Juniper Lee exists and a guy Judd Winick created it.
Why does she refuse any sort of crowdfunding when she's a no-name with no reputation to uphold. (and when she had control and still has for 5 years control over the furries/bronies wallets)
Why the fuck does she dye her hair and keep acting like a 15 year old girl with her head up in the clouds?

Why did she think working for Craig and the talentless hacks at Cartoonnetwork will ever grant her a reputation and more offers in quality cartoons, movies, etc. CN was always known for obnoxious grotesque stoner shit and Faust seems to be all about subtlety, charm, eloquency, calmness much more fitting for Disney. She never had her chance to really write a script the exact way she wanted. Craig never offered her "Here you can have 7 episodes, do whatever you please with them." she always had to stay true to Foster's Home shitty style of lol so randumb.

>>77705779

Even if Hasbro didn't have to put up any money for this, they'd still shut down an attempt to crowdfund this if they thought it would be bad for the MLP brand.

>>77695168
Not kid friendly I assume? Considering Medusa was raped by Poseidon in Athena's temple and Athena cursed her for it.

>>77706329
I brought this up on /mlp/, but let's get /co/'s take on it: How would you make Medusa's backstory kid-friendly?

>>77706392
Make it all about being invited to dance and misunderstandings. Or hand-wave it.

>>77706392
Like everything kid-friendly. Disney it.
>Do you listen to him? He's talking like this is some kind of greek tragedy
>Lighten up, dude.
>We'll take it from here, darling. (Says Disney to the ancient greek legend)
>Party time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qTRvO1IbvI

>>77706426
You can't hand-wave it because the movie is supposed to be mostly about her backstory. It just occurred to me that at the end of the movie, Perseus could persuade Medusa to help him rescue Andromeda without cutting her head off, and accomplishing this convinces Athena to lift the curse. Still don't know what to do about Medusa's backstory though.

CN is full of talentless lol so randumb hacks which never got dick slapped by the real talent and got told to shut the fuck up, just like John K.
I think Faust's biggest mistake in her life was joining CN and marrying Craig. Faust should have stuck with artistic films like Cats Don't Dance and the Iron Giant where she belonged. She could have married a Disney artist.
Her style is the complete opposite of pretentious obnoxious toilet humour as finally goddamn proven by MLP's first season. She never had a chance to show her true style of writing.

>>77705779
She worked on WoY, which is on Disney.

>>77705779
You marry people that you love and not based on their talent you dumb sponge monkey

So what exactly keeps her from saying exactly what happened? I mean so many other artists tell what went wrong with the companies they work for, except for this weird dyed redhead.

What can you expect from an artsy type, from a feather-brained blondie feminist who constantly dyes her hair red, married the fugly king of losers at CN, took CalArts classes and which came from Maryland of all places.

Don't expect Lauren to ever be an alpha about things. I think Frankie Foster characterizes her well as a slave working for a dumb executive in a house full of orphan imaginary friends. She could have been so much more if she raised her standards.

>>77706392
>>77706470
It's pretty simple, really. Play it up as her getting conned into a May-December "romance" with Poseidon. That way you can keep the implication of him taking advantage of her without the actual deed being done. It's watered down, but it'll make it seem worse when Medusa's punished for something relatively trivial in comparison.

God did that annoy me dude....like any fan I felt a bit sentimental, but at the end of it all what the fuck, it just seems messed up to show up at conventions to try and act sad that the show still means something to people, almost to say "how dare you like it now that i'm not involved, I was sure the fandom would collapse!"

Oh shit, I think I get the angle Faust would have taken with the characterization in this movie. They wouldn't want a kids' movie to go into detail about Medusa needing to be a virginal priestess. Instead, since Athena is the goddess of wisdom... Medusa could be a scholar. A student. MEDUSA AND ATHENA WOULD BE TWILIGHT AND CELESTIA. Faust would have seen this as a chance to do a whole movie about how Twilight would feel if her greatest fear were realized -- falling out of Celestia's favor.

>unlucky
Being the most praised storyboarder in the world is unlucky?

Besides, she makes average products and then throws hissy fits when she isn't allowed complete control. Why the fuck is everyone pretending that not having her is a waste of talent?

>People who try things that are different are lauded by the ones who watch, but the guys who employ them don't like it.

They're SOMETIMES lauded by the ones who watch. Just as often, an attempt at something new goes unnoticed or fails.

It's a risk that the people who employ them don't regularly want to take.

You still see this with shit like Steven Universe, too.

Honestly, anyone who didn't drop the show after the fucking 100th episode that was loaded with pathetic pandering and still defends the show is an autistic faggot who deserves no respect

>>77712951
Wonder when it will have an episode where it acknowledges that the show is garbage.

Was this movie supposed to be the feminist retelling where Medusa wasn't a sacriligeus slut that got what she deserved?
Like that lying clash of the gods episode on History channel?

Actually no. She did pony redesigns in her DeviantArt gallery just for grins, Hasbro saw them and approached her.

>>77713622
Untrue.

Some people believe everything that's written on 4chan that could possibly be masked as non-troll comments, rather than actually taking it from the horse's mouth, and then recite it as truth later.

>>can't even get her seven planet show pitched

Another sad side effect of doing MLP; FIM for Hasbro is that she used HUGE hunks of Galaxy Girls for the themes and characterizations in ponies, so she can't even really fall back on that.

Is her hair naturally red? I thought she was a brunette.

Sorry, but true. Lauren was pitching Galaxy Girls to Hasbro, which they were soft on, but saw her pony art on DA and asked her to make a pitch. She used the parts of Galaxy Girls that Hasbro liked in the 30 page treatment, and they bit. That's how it went down.

>>77713941
? Hasbro you are a shit if that is true.

Helped it had a great writer leading those first couple of seasons. JMS did a really good job.

Don't remind me, Anon. That animation was great and fun and cartoony, and now it'll never happen.

I was looking forward to seeing what would come from Medusa, sucks to hear about this.
