Remove these countries from the equation and we are left with what, in terms of animation?
>>92024990
Check off France and Canada as well before making your "point" you cretin
I know France, Canada, and Britain have pretty big animation industries.
Places like Russia, China, and Brazil probably have all sorts of weird shit the rest of the world never sees.
>>92024990
Most animation is outsourced to korea anyway.
>>92025045
i guarantee anything coming out of russia or south america is total shit
>>92025057
Not the writing, storyboarding, layout and character design though
>>92024990
>Spain
>>92025029
His point would be even stronger because that would mean Teletoon is the king network of all animation.
>>92025060
Russia has a long history of animation (though mostly because the communists wanted to try and undermine the capitalist rodent). There's a lot of really interesting old stuff to dig up. Maybe all that stuff just disappeared, but it's hard to imagine there being nothing.
>>92024990
Nothing good. The only thing seppos have ever been good for is making good cartoons, and even then sometimes they just wind up making abominations (SU, New PPG, etc.)
>>92025029
What are you smoking, we haven't created anything decent since 97. Hell we should be locked up for the stuff we've done since then
Have you seen almost naked animals?!
>>92025075
We wish. We've got like a miniature version of France's industry: some great talent around, but mostly directionless, self-indulgent or worse, playing it overly safe (specially when it comes to features or medium-to-big budgets).
Feels bad; we did a bunch of pretty neat co-productions with Japan back in the 80s. Wish we could pull off something like that again
there is these guys
>>92024990
You are clearly ignorant considering France isn't on your map. They make far better cartoons than the US.
>>92025209

> Nobody knows of them outside their borders
Nah
>>92024990
We are left with decent academy awards contenders.
>there wouldn't be academy awards in the first place
Even better!

You don't know about wakfu or totally spies?

Or that weird 3D Garfield cartoon a while back.
>>92025344
Quite well known in Europe, actually
>>92025344
Nig, the issue usually is that the shit gets distributed to everywhere that isn't the US.
You guys are about as isolated as China or Iran.
>>92025415
And Australia, nothing that hasn't sold in the US or UK gets shown here, along with the latest Japanese merch show.
>>92025348
Do they even care about AA outside America? I assume they've got their own institutions and whatnot; I wouldn't think they'd give a shit about some condescending pat in the back when foreign entries are usually picked only to validate the award as "global" for maximum circlejerkness

>>92025060
Have you never seen their TOm & Jerry stuff?
>>92025358
Those shows are alright (actually wakfu sucks but that's just my opinion) but if those shows are the height of your animation industry then that's a pretty low bar
>>92025045
You used to be able to see a lot of foreign animation on British television when I was a kid (mostly on BBC2 or Channel 4 (back when there were literally only four TV channels)). Mostly shorts from Eastern Bloc countries, but sometimes they'd have a season of things like Bruno Bozzetto films (Italy). Summer holidays were also good for seeing obscure kids movies. I've also seen Russian short animations, usually fairy tales and the like, screened in the super-early kiddy slot on weekend mornings.
Here's a couple of classic Chinese animations; I remember seeing dubbed versions of these on UK television as a kid.
Nezha Conquers the Dragon King 哪吒闹海 (1979)
https://youtu.be/Z0SKGg8xOPs
Uproar in Heaven (1964)(【國語英字】大鬧天宮(1964))
https://youtu.be/Hu0XosgxCyU
A lot of places have some kind of home grown animation industry. The only ones that I haven't seen much from are Africa, the Middle East, and South East Asia, but that's probably down to a combination of there being very few studios and a lack of distribution.
>>92025358
>Totally spies
I never knew that was french.
On second thought, that explains a lot of things.
>>92024990
No more retarded """"""progressive"""""" cartoons
The french will do the job.
It'll be alright.
>>92025029
Without America, who'd pay the miserable draw slaves in Canada to make the cartoons?

Can't speak for other countries but they do care about them here. Local awards have an uncomfortable air of politics around them so when you win a foreign award (be it the AA or the Golden Bear or whatever), the recognition less about politics. Plus, international attention is always good marketing, AA nominees (not just winners) always rake in extra money.

>>92025029
>Canadian animation
>>92032753
Not true
Countries that can aford it would simply produce for their own market
Also, considering that some of the first traditional animation actually came from France, one can assume they would at the very least dominate the European market
we should be ok
>>92032891
what's wrong with it?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RISzXw3WsNY
>I know of zero other cartoons that are not made in the US, so there probably are none. So I can happily pretend we hold the monopole
This is what you sound like.
For example we have Werner besides countless children shows. And that is only Germany where we have not much animation going on. Start looking at France and the picture gets rapidly bigger
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3jMKeZwbqg
But of course nothing can exist outside your own place on this planet
>>92033276
Reminder that USA is a country that would rather re-make a foreign property instead of just dubing it
they live under a self-made rock
>>92033109
Finally there would be actual budget for adult animation. I'm not talking about the "comedy"/"muhfeels", but genuine creativity.
>>92033692
Not much can come close to Az Ember Tragédiája, éven with a budget. It's a shame nobody outside of central Europe really cares about Jankovics
>>92033107
>Not true
what's not true?
>Countries that can aford it would simply produce for their own market
most countries can't afford it if you take away japan there only really three countries who have a animation industry that can even compare to america
the UK, France and, Canada
the UK's animation industry is on the decline because of high tax rates
France only has a animation industry because the government funds it
Canada's animation industry is in the same boat as France's but it also directly relies on the US to stay afloat
>very least dominate the European market
i guess but America has a bigger market for animation than the entirety of Europe. so if that market disappeared that would completely devastate the animation industry all over the world
>>92033738
The man is a genious. It's so sad, that he is not popular in the west.

>>92033692
>Finally there would be actual budget for adult animation
where would this money come from? Also how is America stopping people from funding adult animation?
>>92033276
i don't think he was saying that there won't be any good animation
i think he was saying that there would be much less in general seeing as america funds more animation than most places in the world put together
>>92033772
>what's not true?
That animation would not exist without the USA
As for the rest
Even countries like the Czech republic or Hungary do have their own animation industries
While there are countries that do not have an animation industry, the number of countries with animation industries of their own is much larger than you claim
Also the claim that the Franche animatin industry needs the US market is falacious, seeing how the vast majority of French animation never even gets imported to the US
The vast majority of animation from around the world never gets imported to the USA
They do not get any US money as it is, they do not need the US market
In fact, with no USA, there would be allot less competition for local animation studios
>>92033852
Well it's more of a "what people see" case.
"Adult animation" is strugling because adults can't belive a "cartoon" can be mature.
The only televised adult animation people see in the central european area:
- Simpsons/Family guy/American dad and other "funny" cartoons
In the commieblock times there was great effort to produce adult content, which failed because the audience didn't exist yet. When the commieblock fell, goverments took all the support from these state run studios and they crumbled.
Now that televised adult animated shows are sought after the only producers who they can look to are the U.S. from where only the popular shows get exported.
>>92034026
They actually made an animated feature film for adults in the Slovak Republic
It was also Slovakia's first animated feature film
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=difV_VoSdV8
the Simpsons/South Park influences are obvious
We still would have Alfred J. Kwak, so the single best piece of fiction is still there

it is by Cartoon Network Brazil tho
not sure if that counts
>>92025060
>south america is total shit
>being this wrong
>>92034102
>It's a southparkesque humor film
The problem is, that without american influence this wouldn't exist and its more of a humor show.
>>92034405
yeah, without America they might have produced something good
Also mind you that the "animation is for Children" mentality was largely created by Disney and Hanna-Barbera
Thus it is America's doing
>>92034522
It's clear that the mentality came from there, but that does not mean that there would be no children's cartoons.
The playingfield would be more mixed.
>>92027158
Look up Kung Fu Cooking Girls. It's chinese.
>>92033985
>That animation would not exist without the USA
i never said that i said most (i see now that that was me being hyperbolic) but even if it's not most animation
american still funds more animated than anywhere else in the world
>the number of countries with animation industries of their own is much larger than you claim
i see my post made it seem like i thought that smaller countries did not have animation industry i didn't mean that i meant that there animation industries are so small in comparison to the us that there's really no point in comparing them
>which failed because the audience didn't exist yet
i don't see a problem with this i am not in favor of government funded art projects if there is no demand i don't see the point in having a supply
>>92034604
looking at French animation, Soviet era East and Middle European animation, and especially Japanese and early Chinese animation, that would very likely be the case
>>92034026

>>92034644

True, but only its own animation
And maybe Canada
the point of this thread is whether animation would exist without the USA nad Japan
The answer is, yes, it would
There would be less of it, but it would still exist an have an audience
Perhaps even an audience outside of just children

>The vast majority of animation from around the world never gets imported to the USA
that's because it isn't profitable but that's nothing special the vast majority of animation anywhere including the us isn't profitable
nothing you said change the fact that america is the single largest market for animation in the world it spends more money funding animation inside and outside of its borders than any other country in the world
also the american people spend more money supporting animation than people from any other country in the world
>>92031495
I want to ram goatmom, if you catch my drift.
>>92034864
That does not change the fact that animation would still exist even without the US

no it's not the point of this thread is

>>92034950
>That does not change the fact that animation would still exist even without the US
i never said otherwise
>Japan's industry is bigger.
no it's not cartoons in america make much more money than anime in japan
>>92035105
probably because American animation is cheaper
>>92035041
if that's what you believe
We are finally getting some quality.
>>92035145
>probably because American animation is cheaper
i'm not talking about the international market when you are in japan anime is pretty cheap it's all the stuff you get with animated that's expensive
So what are some good French cartoons besides Wakfu?
/co/ only seems to want to talk about French content when it caters to their fetishes.
>>92035276
>i know what genres i like, naturally this means everyone else knows what i like
Korea, all of Europe, Canada, the UK, and to a lesser extent Ireland.
Canada is doing OK for itself.
Europe(Main Land) has the artistry and numbers required, but perhaps not the same passion people in California do.
Korea already does most animation nowadays, so it's only a matter of time that when there's no demand for people to do so, they're make that demand themselves.
The UK has Aardman and a few other big names in animation. While slow, they make good, good stuff.
Ireland has a reputation for the occasional great animated movie now and then. Not enough to sustain the market, but something.
There's enough demand in other countries that if the two big sources disappeared, new sources would pop up. I also wouldn't underestimate places like Brazil due to their emergent nature, and China, while heavily censored, does make... some stuff.
>>92035276

Japan produces much more animation than the US while keeping the vast majority of the work domestic, and the industry is much more far-reaching (music, manga, games, merchandise, light novels, live events, tourism etc.). I was not able to find out how much the US animation industry is worth, but the anime industry was worth $18 billion in 2015.

>Japan produces much more animation than the US
yeah but even popular anime doesn't make much money anime makes most of its money off of related products like statues and the full size body pillows
>anime industry was worth $18 billion in 2015
does that include music, manga, games, merchandise, light novels, live events, tourism etc?
because of this includes merchandise than a cartoon related merchandise definitely makes more money in america?
>>92036041
Merchandise is part of the anime industry, and body pillows are a meme. They make up a small minority of merchandise. There are also many TV anime that run during normal hours and generate income from commercials, like TV normally does. I see no reason to think that popular late night anime don't make much money from disc sales. If six volumes average 50,000 sales, that's 300,000 sales.
>does that include music, manga, games, merchandise, light novels, live events, tourism etc?
The industry reports have the categories of TV, movie, video, internet, merchandising, music, overseas, pachinko and live entertainment.
>because of this includes merchandise than a cartoon related merchandise definitely makes more money in america?
Does it, though? I'd like to see sales data but I wasn't able to find anything at all about how much the industry is even worth.
>>92036237
Also, I'm not saying the anime industry is bigger because it makes more money (which it may or may not), but because it has much higher output, most of the work is domestic, the industry has its fingers in many more pies, and because animation has a much more significant status in Japan than it does in America.
