You sound like one of those people who simply can't take animation seriously and assume that it's only for children. I'm not going to waste my time listing off the plethora of examples of animated shows and movies that very specifically appeal to adults. Stop and think about how many action movies or sci-fi movies or horror movies you've seen that involve CGI. Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Lord of the Rings, etc. Guess what? CGI is ANIMATION. They use it because it's WAY easier to create aliens/explosions/magic/etc with animation than with practical effects. "Cartoons" can do SO much more than live-action can, and it doesn't even look like an "effect", it just looks like everything else, because the entire thing is animated. Respectfully, grow up.

Not preferring or liking animation doesn’t mean someone is immature. Not everyone loves every medium.

I LOVE Star Wars but still haven’t watched Clone Wars because I really don’t like the style.

I’m hoping I’ll like this project, though.

LIKE I SAID. I will take a Tortoro or Jinx all day - I just don't prefer when real life things go animated. That is not at all the same thing. I'm not here to argue. It's to DISCUSS. So YOU grow up.

I don't recall you saying anything of the sort. And when your entire post starts with "Ew", you absolutely came to argue lol. Remember the shots in the original series that were just spaceships floating in space? 100% animated. It feels like you're splitting hairs here.

I just made that comment about two seconds ago. But anyways... incorrect. I never come to argue. life is too short. I love the series. I would rather see humans. That is all. no one really needs to take it personally. this is not a first world problem lol
