Hey! Are you still there actually?

Not trying to harass you just wanted to reply to your comment in a thread but the OP blocked me; was genuinely interested in what you had to say.



My reply--> Not to split hairs, but I don't think William Hanna would care; Hanna- Barbera literally recycled the Scooby-Doo formula countless times with similar shows like The Amazing Chan Clan, Jabber Jaw, Speed Buggy etc. They were creatively bankrupt for decades.


Not sure what's wrong with making things that appeals to people either.

There's nothing wrong with making things that appeal to people. But it is a legacy that people care about. It is part of their infancy, part of the culture of american cartoon. That they would attempt to switch and mix ideas for the sake of variety and versatibility is acceptable to an extent insofar as the author isn't blatantly disrespected, but here we see a very base appeal to sex, her lesbianism doesn't add anything of importance to the lore nor the character. As well as contradicting what already is and adding yet a further insult to the author's vision. It's a larger statement about how corporate interests are moved in favor of basic and vain appeal rather than meaningful additions, when it comes to marketing something to the public.

People are gay, there are different sexualities, to insinuate that being straight is the default setting is very narrow minded.


As for legacy, it doesn't matter when it comes to the capitalization of artwork, it's about making the most money possible, which comes directly from advertising and investments the cartoons themselves do not make any money and could as complex as 3 lines on a blank background for all they care.

People insinuate straight as default because being otherwise is a rarity. It's not an unreasonable expectation. In the context of this character however, there are examples that at least suggest she conforms to the rule. Were one to grant the good-to-go to companies that process their franchises this way, it will inevitably lead to what we have already seen in various other franchises that turn into mere monetary investments, which is a sharp decline in quality. This is why a degree of outrage and disapproval is not only acceptable and understandable but utmost required to keep in check the investment priorities.

do you draw dragons having sex with cars?

Hah! A fellow connoisseur, glad to see it! I'm afraid not, but I've been tempted.
