Do a lot of people prefer the cartoony aesthetic? It seems to be really popular….

They always teach overacting in animation classes and I feel like people just take it out of context.

Everything wrong with CG encapsulated in one short piece of animation. Poorly constructed characters, loud and unfunny animation, garish art direction and, oh yeah, fart gags.

I liked it, and the rest of their shorts aswell :-)

Planktoon? Viacom would sue them for using a “Spongebob” character, although it is a real animal name.

The short plays best without sound.

that is really horrifying. I don’t want to see balloon tits and saggy buttcrack on a cg cartoon character…ever.

I need to go…just go.

im a little unclear as to what was going on in the short, i didn’t like it.
it wasn’t funny, and it was ugly as hell. oh, but i loved the quasi-anime goofy surprise pose the non-breasted character took after getting hit with the pot. i haven’t at all been sick of that since i was 11.

props to Vujovic on the over acting thing.

I agree with the majority in that this wasn’t very good with some real ugly designs

However I found the other shorts–Do Penguins Fy?, Magik Circus, and Gotchi & Dootchi– to be much better. (Penguins was my favorite)

Also those concerned about “cartoony aesthetic” should look at the girl in the Magic Carpet short. She contrasts sharply with the more expressive “genie.”

We now have a new category of animation that I call GRUNTMATION. In GRUNTMATION the characters use sub linguistic grunts, coos, caws, and other gibberish to express emotion and intent.

You heard it here first folks, CGI animation invented fart jokes!
