[QUOTE="ShadowSD:423699"]dwellingsickness said:[QUOTE]ShadowSD said:[QUOTE]whereas cartoons like The Simpsons and even South Park develop emotional attachment to their characters.[/QUOTE] Ok , I either took what you said out of context or you said you get emotionally attached to the characters of those 2 shows? If so I think you need to be on some meds.[/QUOTE] Although I'm always hesitant to turn down free drugs, you did take what I said out of context. I meant emotionally attached as in you give somewhat of a fuck what happens to the character, just like in any good film, show, or book; that way when they have a problem to overcome, you care about what happens. It's the standard for any good work of fiction. Family Guy (although outstanding, and the best of all the Sunday cartoons last night) could execute all their characters in one scene and no one would give a fuck. South Park themselves actually said the same thing about emotional weight in that Family Guy-bashing episode (just about jokes, not characters). In that episode, Kyle had a nightmare about a terrorist attack where Ike and then him were slowly and graphically roasted face first by the explosion, and it was really effective and showed how fear for his family was able to change his mind politically, grabbing the viewer like something out of a thought provoking movie. Now if Peter Griffin had a dream where his family died like that, would anyone care or take it at all seriously? Even if it wasn't a dream, it would still just be a five second punchline that had no effect on the story. [/QUOTE]
