When Animators fight the power.

[turtle1237]

She-ra is 30 years old.

And in one of there sketch books, they pretty much say NO BUNS when Glimer is looking over the plans.

[turtle1237]

But the animators fight the power and gave Glimer buns as the cartoon show. Fighting the power, that's telling the higher ups who draws the cartoons lol.

Sorry, I'm confused. Exactly what the HECK is the purpose of this thread?

Mostly when Animators get stuff past the censures or out right not listen to the higher ups.

I was watching the powerpuff girls bonus features, and the animators would have this rule book, mostly in regards to Miss Bellum, she was suppose to be zipped up all the way, but the animators had her top unzipped a little, and than the animators from Asian unzipped her bloused even farther.

The BTAS were able to even get Death pass censures a few times.

He thinks this is a big deal, he must not know what anime gets away with nowadays. 11 year old girls grinding each other in hot tubs.

I was looking at the She-ra work sheets and notice the note no buns, I seen the episode in question, and recall they did added buns.

I think its neat the animators pretty much went against the Big Wigs in a way.

In BTAS, they were always on the verged of pushing the button on what they could get away with. Had the animators not been pushing buttons, perhaps we don't get cartoons like Adventure Time which would have never pass in the 1980's.

That's awesome. "No buns!" What creative direction!

WTF anime do you watch, man!?

[MsMarvelDuckie]

I'm guessing the Japanese versions of certain popular ones. Or some of the more adult-oriented ones. Then again, Negima is pretty risqué at times, so who knows!

[ProactiveMan]

I don't know what I was expecting when I looked at this thread, but to me 'fight the power' connotes nobler actions than slipping frames of Glimmers butt through an editorial process. I might be wrong though.

If we're gonna talk about Filmation, masters of the Universe and "fighting the power". How about how many characters he-Man and She-Ra had that actually wasn't symmetrical in design for easier animation recycling, like Trap Jaw and Two-Bad.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Well, TBH, they aren't the only ones who flew stuff in under the radar. We've all heard the tales about Disney animators, especially in films like The Rescuers, Aladdin, The Little Mermaid, And The Lion King. Lady and the Tramp is another that comes to mind. And that's not counting the things they did in cartoons series like Gargoyles and Tale Spin, Duck Tales, etc....

[plastroncafe]

Focusing on "buns" when one could be writing about the full frontal naked live-action woman that shows up in The Rescuers.

I'm seriously starting to worry about you kids today...

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Well, that's sort of why I brought it up. Talk about fighting the power!

[plastroncafe]

Meh, even those I wouldn't call "fighting the power." More like "heheh, what can we get away with!?"

Fighting the power implies a bit more revolution than what's mostly fratboy wankery.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Well that's how it starts, though. Thumbing one's nose at the big-wigs in however small a way that gets past them. If they went all out, it would never get made, because it would get yanked right off the starting line!

These days, that also includes things like the ending to Korra, or the sub joke in TMNT.... It's slow, but it keeps stretching the limits.
