First his twitter gets deleted, now one of his (debatably) best videos gets unjustly taken down. There's just no place on the internet for talented animators anymore.
Funny enough, when my sister found the original series in Netflix, she binged the entire thing in a day, while the reboot could barely hold her attention for an entire episode.
Same reason why the original Tom and Jerry cartoons are so good. Remove the violence, anvils falling, and classical music by an actual orchestra, it’s a yawnfest. Violence has always been around in children’s literature. It could be psychological if not physical violence. From the days of the Brothers Grimm to Harry Potter. To remove any trace of problems in an attempt to shield children, assumes that children are too dumb to figure inherent things for themselves.
I'm kind of shocked that they removed Miss Bellum, she was the smartest character on the whole show. Her name was literally Sara Bellum (cerebellum = motor control portion of the brain at the base of the spine), she was the brain character. What message was she sending? That women can be intelligent, resourceful, insightful AND be attractive AND have their own running gag? Funniest part is, I think they actually did show her face in one scene, and she pretty much looks like you'd expect. She kind of reminds me of Jessica Rabbit, but with curly hair.
I never saw Ms. Bellum as a sexy lady, she was just the mayor’s assistant and guide. I also never realized how violent this show was but I still liked it.
1998: Blossom: Smart, responsible leader who is reliable in the worst situations. Bubbles: Cute, likes things majority of little girls enjoy. That still doesn’t take away any of her strength Buttercup: Tomboy who wants to be physically strong. Sometimes she’s mean, but deep down she has a soft heart for her sisters and the citizens. Overall all of them fight well and them being little girls never takes away from their strength, which is rare in a show. Craig McCracken gave little girls relatable superheroes they can look up too.
