I'm tired of weebs shitting on Western pop culture. What excuse do these mfs have to shit on Western pop culture if they themselves watch some mediocre harem and isekai slop? Western pop culture isn't bad, we have a rich back catalog of great Western works waiting for us to discover them. Neither did it become worse, all the good and promising talent just went into the indie and AA segments so basically the West sorta relies on doujin circles for releasing great games, comics, cartoons and music which is fairly unique to it compared to the Far East. And even AAA game studios, Netflix and cartoon channels, with all their DEI, dwindling quality and appeals to the lowest common denominator, still occasionally produce some bangers (CDPR, Rockstar, id Software, MachineGames, io Interactive and [adult swim] still look promising despite all the fuckups).

So here's my message to the weeaboos: stop shitting on something you don't understand and having a superiority complex because you watch moe girls flashing their panties and jiggling their tits on-screen. Sure, Western pop culture is in its late-capitalist casual-friendly pandering enshittification phase but it's not all doom and gloom, even though it used to be better when it comes to the mainstream pop culture. Or maybe it became too mainstream so the indie scene is sort of a counterbalance to that? Remember how gamers were often bullied for their hobby? Now everyone and your dad plays video games and it obviously affects their quality.

>101 Dalmatians live-action
>Beauty and the Beast live-action
>The Jungle Book live-action
>The Lion King live-action
>Alladin live-action
>Dumbo live-action
>Mulan live-action
>The Little Mermaid live-action
<no Cars live-action
Disney, wtf? Of all the cartoons to base a live-action remake on you didn't choose one of the most obvious ones? It could've been something actually refreshing. The plot wouldn't change but at least it'd be something interesting. 90% of them aren't even good, such a waste of money, talent and resources.

I hear shitlibs complaining about generative AI ruining art, and while I generally agree with them here I argue that mainstream culture was long gone even before AI took over. It obviously took a long time before it was ruined but games like Concord, Veilguard, Callisto Protocol, Andromeda, Starfield and Highguard were shit even if they didn't use AI while Clair Obscur was good despite using it. It seems like big corpos just want to crunch and rush everything up as much as possible while shoving every "current thing" up their asses along the way, with AI being just one of those "current things." Or perhaps the corpos just decided to pander to techbros instead of the wokies now? Regardless, it's clear to me that this process of decline of mainstream pop culture was happening for a long time. All this AAA slop is no better than AI slop to me so it's perfectly understandable why people are happy when AAA devs are fired, even though I'm not sure firing them is gonna fix the fundamental problems with these AAA giants.

Basically, just play indie games and watch indie movies, I think all this big-budget slop should have been euthanized (except for Eastern works, they're fine… other than isekai, romcoms, 3D donghua and TV dramas ig… and some Nintendo franchises).

Btw, what really grinds my gears about AI is that you can't afford any decent gaming hardware because of it. Also, DLSS 5 is hot garbage.

when I'm in the fire nation, the fire nation citizens force me to call a 5000 pound gas chamber a car instead of calling it a gas chamber.

[this is a completely fucking useless nazi show.]

Show me more american movies where the main character is operating a 5000 pound gas chamber.

yennifer is too busy paying for fuel running gas chambers on your children so that she can go skiing.

People keep saying that realism is what's ruining games and movie adaptations but does it really? I get it, "realistic" graphics can look bad and can tank the performance. I understand that many realistic AAA games are generic open-world over-the-shoulder action games (or CoD). I understand that Disney remakes and Netflix adaptations are hot garbage. But I feel like it's a problem of overblown budgets, bad art design, bad development tools/cinematography, pandering to mainstream audiences and just plain incompetence rather than an inherent flaw of realism. AA games are doing just fine with realistic graphics, you just need to know what you're doing. Honestly, this sentiment feels like the opposite of "realism good, animation bad" and is just as insufferable. Instead of critiquing actual bad practices of the AAA industry and its sheer capitalist greed we overfocus on arbitrary shit of whether a character looks realistic or not. Who cares?
>Devil May Cry V was fire
>Grand Theft Auto V was fire
>One Piece was fire
>How to Train Your Dragon was fire
>Helldivers 2 was fire
A good work of art is a good work of art regardless of its artstyle, no?

What are your thoughts?

Any fans?
Post Carlin bits if you wanna.
