>>148073649Nah you’re crazy. Productions are much less aesthetically ambitious now, with flat, simplistic designs designed for puppet-riggability. The direction is uninspired and more closely resembles family guy. The only things modern productions have kept up is
1. Less animation errors because it’s harder to fuck up when you’re less ambitious and with the tech nowadays.
2. Autistic on model consistency which is the kind of visual perfection that sounds desirable but in practice is just lifeless.
3. Framecount because either they are rigged puppets or less ambitious designs and cuts.
90’s toons did have less tight timing sometimes sure, but they often had form and real attempts at cinematic direction. Most cartoons nowadays are like slightly upgraded family guy with decent backgrounds. My eyeballs are fucking starving.
