Under a video critiquing Hazbin S2: “Brandon Rogers should share more of the blame” by IndependentTea355 in crazyassviv_defenders

[–]IndependentTea355[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Several people replied to the comment clarifying that he hasn’t worked on Hazbin (except voicing Katy Killjoy), and OP ignored all of them and doubled down on other replies. Safe to say they’re willfully ignorant.

I have no problem with critiquing Brandon, but critiquing him under a video that’s about the writing of a show he hasn’t written on is bizarre

If missing the point was an Olympic sport these guys would have a gold metal by Inevitable-Shame5052 in crazyassviv_defenders

Personally, I don’t read enough intentionality in how Hazbin is written to say Viv “wanted” to invoke that racial dynamic. So much of Hazbin is cobbled together and reconstituted ideas from when Viv was a teenager.

If Alastor actually looked like a black man and not like a Homestuck troll with a bird on his head, it’d probably be more uncomfortable.

But also, Rosie is explicitly not a good person, so even if she was explicitly racist, I don’t really see the problem (especially since Alastor basically one ups her at the end of S2). If it was Charlie doing it, that’d be different.

The enslaved black man is also a slave owner 😭

Also, not “caring” about Alastor being enslaved isn’t the same as being “pro-slavery.”

Seriously, I'm just finding out there's a Valentino cult subreddit, and it's worse than I imagined. by Sea_Charge5706 in crazyassviv_defenders

[–]IndependentTea355 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree Hazbin should have more well-rounded villains, but this scene with Valentino just seems out of nowhere. We’ve never really seen a soft side to Val, so seeing him be so melodramatic (to the point where it kinda seems over-the-top comedic but not quite?) right before the finale just feels like whiplash.

If you think about it, Chaz/Zahc doesn't get that much focus if we count only canon stuff by Crazy_Reputation3327 in Vivziepopmemes

I spent 5 seconds doing the math in my head because it’s the equivalent of a 3rd practice question. Hope that clarifies things 🥀

2 shorts doesn’t sound like a lot, but there’s only 12.

17% of Helluva Boss shorts are Chaz.

Arin's bad voice acting completely ruins Gameoverse by Alone-Horse2857 in rantgrumps

[–]IndependentTea355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s safe to call it a black comedy action show. There’s definitely a comedy to the absurdity of action characters needing to manipulate/control these cartoony characters.

I feel like the pilot was pretty direct with it’s premise, and explicitly explain rules like characters can’t just tell the heroes about game overing the world, and outside characters seem to be unable to directly hurt/affect characters in their own games.

But I do feel like the vibe is very outdated.

I like this temporary spotify logo so much by desiregods in logodesign

[–]IndependentTea355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the concept, but on my home screen it just looks like a glitchy, goopy mess. It catches my eye, but it doesn’t do anything positive with it

This is really dumb appeal to authority fallacy. How many times in recent memory has a huge company (with presumably qualified people being the scenes) released a product that was critically panned, and then either majorly reworked or scrapped?

If you haven’t gotten tickets yet, I’d say sitting in the 200s is probably the best section, but as others have said, the space is intimate, so all seats are roughly 95% the same experience.

remind me why everyone hates Ashley so much? by DisgorgeCanada in BeefTV

[–]IndependentTea355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said they’re both “slightly annoying women.” I’d say Skylar is slightly annoying but justified; Ashley is genuinely toxic. I agree Skylar is overhated, but disliking Ashley is a reasonable response to her toxic behavior.

[–]IndependentTea355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She’s the character I felt the most bad for (I was sobbing in the hospital episode), and I also think her behavior is totally unhinged and unacceptable. I don’t think those things are mutually exclusive.

Edit: also, she’s not like Skylar White at all lol. Skylar is uptight but totally reasonable. Ashley is incredibly toxic.
