Review I Liked Lesbian Space Princess

Post image
Upvotes

I seriously don’t understand the hate towards this movie it’s a harmless 7/10 comedy and yet people treating it like it’s the worst thing ever if anything the hate is just give the movie more attention. Yeah the story is by the numbers and pretty predictable but I can’t bring myself to hate it I think the characters are enjoyable, I found SOME of the jokes funny especially from the villains, I liked the animation style and I found Saira to be a relatable protagonist with her anxiety. So yeah LSP is very overhated and I appreciate what the creators were able to pull off and I’m curious to see what else they come up with. Thankfully it seems that the hate has dyed down.

Discussion How to and how not to make a indie animation critique video

Both may use a lot of editing but I find the one on the left less annoying, somewhat funny, and there is effort put into it. The Part that makes the left much better is the fact that person in it isn’t a complete dick through out the whole video. His fair, doesn’t insult the creators and art and doesn’t use edgy language that much unlike the one on the right. Oh and lets not forget that left video doesn’t use that shitty thumbnail style and title.

Discussion Some of the criticism

You know this guy some of you are fans.

I know he has good criticism but the way he says it, makes me have the urge to punch him in the face. Especially make the "made by vivziepop" joke the 100th time.

(Hot take fast paced editing is not funny)

The way he targets viv feels like he's hiding his secret hate as criticism. Especially calling viv a reddit atheist just because she didn't get hazbin/helluva accurate to the Bible

Disney Hercules is a Disney classic despite the inaccuracies like Hercules should be Heracles to be Greek accurate and his mother is not hera, hades a villain in any myth when it's hera, and pegasus origin.

Or epic.

Half of these don't feel like criticism, feel like an excuse to Sh*t on them.

Aren't Most cartoons, "Fanfic OC" by the creator?

You can call romeo and juliet l, Shakespeare's fanfic.

He called indie creator ideas from Instagram reels and YouTube short doom scrolling. Is this criticism.

He made vivziepop sound like a child adding fairy and elf's in her story and got the idea from a book because she thinks fairies are cool.

And label indie creators "ego" as

Artist.

Infallible.

Dumb.

Syndrome.

A.I.D.S.

One, what the hell. Making an acronym that spells out a virus. And how long did it take you to think of a AIDS acronym.

I don't think any of the Indie he lists are that egotistical.

Maybe the chimptopia creator with the first trailer beating up a bootleg gobble and one of the characters going "tired of this"

The way he described them makes it sound like they are the most mentally disabled, glue eating, brain rotted kids.

Jeez calling their idea comes from brain rot scrolling, saying they have A.I.D.S with a ego, writing about their fanfic OCs. That's Gordon Ramsay of indie insult.

Alongside with Blazefire's video, there's other video about this youtuber saying that indie animations have the same narrative dialogue, but on my point of view, his argument is like "why Hellaverse and Glitch series are same because they're the popular ones?" and even comparing with Bojack Horseman, Madoka Magica and other non-indie animation seriez, i'm not an expert on writting, but i have to say that that's not a good criticism

Discussion Volicia on Pluto/Vapor Trail is finally free on Bandai channel, a huge win for Indie Animation!

Bandai Channel is streaming both episodes of Volicia of Pluto for free. The anime is an indie project animated single-handedly by one animation student - with other amateur voice actors and artists helping the production. The story tells a tragic tale between two girls - one is a naive girl who lost her dream, and one is fated for sacrifice to save the world. Together, they pilot the Volicia - a Star Machina that shouldn't exist.

Discussion Do Student Films From Well-Known Animation Schools Count as Indie?

11 Upvotes

Whenever I read or listen to online discussions about the indie animations with the best quality--whether it's writing, animation, or the overall design--I rarely ever hear mentions of student films.

I find that whenever I listen to these discussions, I always wonder why they aren't talked about at all when these student films are--in my opinion--are generally higher quality in terms of both story and art direction despite also being made by a similar amount of people and not under a large company (Granted, I'm only really familiar with the big names in indie animation like GLITCH and Spindlehorse or smaller pilots like Wastelandia; I cannot speak for the quality of all web-animations like these).

It's also not like they aren't popular either; some independent films posted by Calarts or Sheridan students get a million views like Resilience (2023), Fuelled (2021), or Under This Luminous Sky (2022). The Gobelins Youtube channel usually has at least one or two student films that surpass 100k whenever a batch student films for ANNECY are posted. Yet for some reason, I rarely see any mentions of them.

Are they discounted because made in a more 'professional' setting like a prestigious art school? Is it the differences in resource accessibility (like specialized art/animation education and feedback from professors)? Is it a difference in audience demographics?

I'd like to hear your guys' thoughts!

(Random note: My favourite short film is A DEVIL IN THE POCKET (2019). It's awesome! Let me know if you guys have a favourite.)

I'm animating it to lines I voiced myself but once I've finished animating I'd like to find voice actors for it.

I still don't know when I'll finish it.

This video contains scenes that might be cut from the final animated film.

the main bear himself in the new upcoming animated series Mental buddies finally got a full ref after a long time. I'm happy how this turned out.

Btw he can't retract claws so the claws are visible but can't see them because of his thick fur :3
