I got rejected from an humanizing them zine and I‘m like “who even I am then???”
sometimes I have a part of me wanting to give up on animation becuase I hate that whenever I give an critical comment of anything animated, they always reply with “is a kid’s cartoon, is not aimed at you” and I feel awful becuase, then what can I get that’s aimed at me that is animated??? there is like 1% of adult oriented animation and most of it is VERY BAD either visually or thematically (and don’t even bring anime in the mix, thats a whole different fruit bowl all together) and people around acting like if animation has always been a kiddie kid stuff that you outgrow and thats why I no longer like it as before?? new flash man! there is lots of animated media I didn’t saw when I was small and I love it now taht I saw and there has been stuff I have revisited because I remember loving and I noticed was VERY BADLY DONE! is not even if the plot has a dark story or not, is the fact they don’t compromise to the story values and later act as if it wasn’t their fault chosing a hard theme they weren’t gonna follow through midway on and that the real value was ANOTHER THING just to cover tail!!!
I did not out grow the thing! the thing has been getting way too generalized to not scared anybody for more than 1 or 2 seconds, jingle keys for the smallest kids or not annoy fragile mind parents just becuase someone kicked too hard another person or the dirty joke wasnt very subtle!! don’t come here telling me as if before animation wasn’t aimed at the WHOLE family so even if the parent wasn’t fully on it, still could enjoy it if actually watched it rather than nowdays being seen as just “kids stuff” to sit your kid for 2 hours and vaguely smirks at 1 or 2 jokes at best and pretending “yeah I enjoyed those”, everybody knows is true!
given the EXTREME popularity of my old lady and mosnter comic now I wonder if maybe thats the path I should take form now on, basically geriatric monster romance
one of my major reasons why i never really tried inking was because i only had cheap gel pens and soem fine point markers but I found my brother’s old isographos and I refiled it with some of our giant ink bottle (incompatible with the current printer) and now I feel more powerful than god itself
heyyyy since I not gonna be continuing the goretober becuase of commissions work and soon posting the few days I made, I still want to try doing some extras for it, so I will taking small request for chibi/tinies slashers/monsters/horror icons/etc, so send in and I will chose until filling a whole month worth of them!
commissions: *basically non existent, one every 27 years on a full moon if lucky*
me: well I guess then I will be putting my time and effort on this comic work/month challenger/any type of project I been wanting to do for a while now
commissions: *KICKING MY DOOR DOWN OUT OF NOWHERE* YO MAN! WHO WANTS TO DO SOME MULTIPLE CHARACTERS, FULL COLORS AND EFFECTS PIECES FOR SOME BIG CASH?!!??
me:
I keep trying to nail ideas for the missing prompts for the missing days I making for goreober but urghhhhhhhhhh i suddenly really uninspired to work mr “even 4 arms would be more accessible than 6” Abner design’s….so…..I will do what I though I woudln’t….make the whole thing in human form….urgh forgive meeee
The other day i was super busy to start it but after thinking about it, i decided give another try at the ol’ good goretober challenge, now i just deciding on a good list to do, tho i noticing that the hot new thing on this year is this thing called “hanahaki”?? Which looks more kinda weird than anything else, and can’t really do it with Father Abner since he is ultra married
Any prefernce on what you want to see Abner suffer this year??

If you want a series that completely broke itself: Puppet Master, first movie was a slow burn thriller/horror, then it got progressively more insane until it's jumping the shark moment was turning the puppets into nazi-killing creations of a Jewish wizard, then promptly hung itself by making the next movie a clip show of the previous 5 films. Now it got rebooted and apparently it had no idea what it wanted to be and is boring as hell.
ACTUALLY, my reason of that ranting/vent post was caused by the weirdly “joyful” reception the latest Puppet Master got from a part of the horror fandom, like, I not sure if the shark jump moment you are mentioning is the 3rd one or the 7nd, I personally find the 3rd one as the moment peak of the franchise, it has a good story, a really great atmosphere, found a way of keeping the puppets on camera constantly but still giving us bloody murders here and there, and as good guys you aren’t constantly berating the heroes to use their natural instict to kick the dolls down, is a good movie and i feel it should have tried following that path…….but in a better written way of course
also, if complety broken down franchises we are talking about, hellraiser takes the money man, I mean, hellworld, seriously?? REVELATIONS?! THESE GUYS LET A SMUCK HIJACK THEIR OWN FRANCHISE ON JUDGMENT AND DID NOTHING AGAISNT IT!
there is nothing worse than being a horror movies fan when it comes to sequels, you might think everybody dreads the same when a new continuations of your fav franchise is announces and don’t look very good, but there is a real fear when is of the horror genre, comedies, action and most other genres, in the worse case scenarie just try making the same movie as the first but BIGGER AND LOUDER
hero jumped an opening bridge? now he jumps a between helicopters flying, main guy falls while holding a cake? now he falls over a double wedding cake!! and I’m not saying that can’t be the exact same as a horror movie, becuase it can, but when it comes to it, the worse case scenaries can be 100 times WORSE, now the esoteric secret demon cult turns to a teens slasher party about videogames, or the the ghost monster turn out to be an alien from the past, or the crazed murder families were actually hired as a ploy by the fbi to sell illegal stuff
and the worse thing is that if the franchise started as a badly done B movie, and the one you liked is like the 3 one becuase was the one that actually was better and more soulfull done, suddenly you can’t critized it when it wants to “come back to it’s roots” by putting again a bunch of bad sex scenes, trying to pass out gross out horror by scary horror and totally flipping the characters interpretations becuase they weren’t still very worked out in the first movie!!!!
