Why is Alex Hirsch such an overrated hack ? This is his entire career in animation right here ( outside of doing voice acting in some other shows )
Why is Alex Hirsch such an overrated hack...
So that's why I hated only 2 episodes in Fish Hooks.
The bean mouths from GF were carried over from Fish Hooks. That's undeniable
Just looking at this makes it clear why Hirsch is a hack : He's a writer, not an animator. He doesn't know a thing about animation rules
Meanwhile, let's look at John K's career. He's an animator, layout artist, storyboard artist and director. This is just a small example of his pre R&S days. There's more of where this came from.
how does that make him a hack user
>go to school to learn to become an animator
>get your foot in the door and work on a few shows
>get your own show pretty early in you career
>realize it's too much work :( and end your show early
He couldn't take the mouse cock.
He hated all of those things except Mighty Mouse and Beany and Cecil.
What do you even do as an artist once you get to that level in your career and then have nothing to follow it up with? A lot of people don’t realize the double edged sword that being a creator or show runner is. There’s not a whole lot of job opportunities for it and also once you go that far up you don’t get to come back down and be a normal animator again. If you can consistently keep making work for yourself Then becoming a show runner one time is a death sentence for your career.
Don't worry, John K hated them even more. He got no joy from working on those cheap cartoons
Got one for Robyn Byrd?
You mean The Ripping Friends guy ?
Here's Jhonen Vasquez. Other than writing a single Bravest Warriors ep, his only Zig Forums works are Zim and Randy Cunningham. He's a comic book guy after all.
Is that all she ever did? For reals, she didn't even head to other shows?
Let's be honest here : Zim was as good as it was because it was entirely directed by Steve Ressel, who actually had some experience in animation ( unlike Jhonen ) Too bad Steve retired after the show got cancelled. Florpus was good, but Steve's absence was noticeable
I pity the people who compare Rocko with Ren and Stimpy. Like, Joe Murray was a literal nobody before making that R&S wannabe. He wasn't a long time veteran who worked for Clampett and Bakshi like John K was
the fuck does she even do anymore?
Sharktalefag is that you
Is he a hack?
For me he is a person that got burned out by the industry itself and have no desire of doing anything like that again.
I bet he was thinking "doing a show is easy" and then the mouse happened.
Complain about confronting John K in imaginary scenarios on twitter.
I wonder how much that pays.
It must be hard to be such a shut in without a personal identity that John k consumes your entire life.
thats pretty fucking pathetic
He literally wanted to end the show after 20 eps only. He's a lazy guy, plus lacks any improvement spirit
It's hard to have a consistent career. Most of the people who made my fav cartoons as a kid only got to make one show and that was it.
kinda crazy that noelle stevenson keeps getting chances that people with far more talent and more popular/beloved shows never got.
>Watched the first unaired pilot of Gravity Falls for the first time
>Watched Shorty Mcshort Shorts for the first time
>look and felt like it’s from Maple syrup land.
First important why WHY ALEX HIRSCH WRITING AND STYLE FEEL LIKE IT CAME FROM A CANADIAN CARTOON?
He’s not even Canadian. But or if he has Canadian ancestry?
Clamantha is his best role ever.
You already posted this in another thread.
It is and most of us see the writing on the wall compared to Dana and her team (hopefully I'm wrong about her team and someone there has some self awareness to notice they will get a second season then be cut off) who are gonna have the same set up.
Disney is a corporation and money is the bottom line. The part that gets ignored by them as well is they don't bother to pull away. Take the risk of being black listed JUST from Disney and branch out elsewhere. The only reason people give in to the mouse is because its a guaranteed GOOD pay check but not freedom.
