Rugrats (2021) - paramount plus

[Honka Honka Burning Love]

Get ready for articles like "Why Grandpa Pickles is problematic" and "The Dr. Lipschitz character is an anti-semetic dogwistle and here's why."

I dunno how the show could be called Anti-semtic since the entire main cast except for Chukie and his dad are Jewish.

Some of this 90s cartoons shit looks pretty deranged but at least it has character. All these new 3D render remakes are just weird and unnecessary. Kids have no frame of reference anyway, you could just give them the original and they probably consoom it. I guess there is money to be had by recycling old shit in a new cheaper to produce art style.

Can’t wait to see CG Not Stu or CG Stu making chocolate pudding. Hope the new VA does his scream justice.

Nancy Cartwright is a psycho.

Any woman who spent 30 years of her life pretending to be a little boy probably isn't someone we can consider to be sane.

I honestly don't know how Fox didn't fire her for that message she left.

This just makes me sad that Susie's parents, Grandpa, Stu, Chuckie 1, etc are all dead. Bosley from Charlie's Angels was the first voice of Grandpa lol.

I saw the preview clip and it was harmless. There have been much uglier and staler reboots/3D cartoons so this being as safe as possible is good. I'm not going to watch it but my nephews may get something out of it. Looks leagues better than the Camp Coral mess.

I can't wait for Susie to still be my least favorite character.

You didn't like Susie? She was the only one who could go against Angelica and btfo her when the babies forget to use their two braincells. She was better than the MacNulty boys.

Susie's Dad's VA is gone but Hattie Wilson and Lisa Dinkins are both alive (and according to their imdb pages, not doing much). You should be wondering what they'll do about Didi's jewy parents.

Undisclosed? I thought she died of leukemia. Strange that they're hiding that.

Well to be fair Wikipedia isn't the most reliable source of information.

Nobody has mentioned this yet, but it's strange how dark the interior of the house is. The exterior shot indicates midday or early afternoon (don't let the purple tint to the sky fool you, it was that color back in the original series too during the day), but the interior is so poorly lit it looks more like early evening and the grown-ups ought to be turning on the lights now. It's incredibly underlit and I don't know why that was okay'd, especially since none of the houses were depicted as that dark in the original show.

Another thing that disappointed me too was after the opening sequence we never see the babies use their imagination again, which was always one of my favorite parts of the show.

It was such a strange omission, because as you said that was one of the most memorable parts of the entire show. But there's a lot less of the imagination sequences post-revival so I guess somebody wasn't a fan, unfortunately.

I think he means that they're probably going to be super woke and shoehorn her into everything.

 

[AcidityLiquidity]

I remember liking the show as a kid, wonder how woke they are going to make the remake.

Good lord, they're hideous in 3D.

You look at him and tell me there's a god.

If there is then I really have to wonder about his mental health because that right there is almost HR Geiger tier weirdness.

The 2D artstyle always looked terrible, but in 3D, this is nightmare fuel incarnate.

It worked on something like Duckman because it invoked that underground comic look the original comics were based on
It worked on Rugrats, just because
Someone mentioned this on /co/ but around the time Arlene and Gabor got divorced their style went ugly FAST

There was this weird trend in the late 90s for cartoons with a certain artstyle like that Wild Thornberries cartoon, Hey Arnold or Rugrats. These shows were ok to watch, but I never really liked the visuals. For cartoons like Rocko's Modern Life, it worked out fine, cause the whole show was so bizarre, the art matched the content.
In 3D, those people look uncanny as fuck to me.

For Real Monsters it worked because the show was about literal monsters and shit

Rugrats, Real Monsters and Duckman were the only shows of theirs I really liked (yeah, I watched Duckman as a kid funnily enough, I recognized that it was the Rugrats studio right away, but also recognized that it was meant for an older audience but that's why I liked it), The Wild Thornberrys was tolerable at best (best thing was Tim Curry), everything else that I saw was lame like Rocket Power.

Well, there was also the INCREIDBLY obscure CBS Saturday Morning Cartoon Santa Bugito, which I never see anyone talk about, but while I remember it as existing, I don't really remember anything else about it.

When did that happen?

Sadly, 4:3 material in a 16:9 world is no longer considered acceptable. Much like how silent films were deemed to be old-fashioned once "talkies" came out, similarly with black-and-white pictures following the advent of colour film/TV, etc.

Basically, kids today won't watch anything that's "pillar-boxed" (like below) because they see it as old.
