So I just found out that a certain TV show, specifically a reboot of an older show, got cancelled. I normally don't celebrate TV show cancellations, and I'm not necessarily celebrating this one... but after everything about this show and its reception, including how it handled the original IP it was rebooting and how the creators responded to any criticism they got, my own reaction to it getting cancelled can be summed up in one classic GIF...


Here's hoping that a better show takes its place, the IP ends up in better hands in the future, and that the show creators learn from their mistakes... probably not gonna happen, but it would certainly be nice.
Let me guess, Thundercats Roar?


Yes, they do! Callie's canon color is pink, while Marie's is green. Inklings being able to control what color their ink is hasn't been fully confirmed via canon yet (At least, not any I can remember), but I imagine they probably can, as Pearl and Marina have been seen rocking slightly different hues to their ink color schemes during Splatfests.
Callie’s is more of a purplish magenta, and Marie’s is lime green. Pearl is bubblegum pink and Marina is turquoise (slightly more blue than green)

Pearl can also be associated with Gold (her zipper + Chaos ink) and Marina with Silver (her zipper + Order ink)

what makes the other not kill the meme? maybe it's just mob mentality because everyone was basically just bullying him for his voice. maybe he was just a guy trying to do his thing and everyone shunned him off the internet because, for some reason, they ambiguously disliked him with no proper real reason.
BTM got doxxed too iirc. For ****ing memes

Eh, not really in a celebratory mood, especially since Cartoon Network will just keep making shows like Go and Roar.

Now, if the previous reboot (the one from 2011 that went for an anime art style) was brought back, given an additional season or two to continue and wrap up its story, and aired on Toonami on [adult swim] where it won't be screwed over by a bad timeslot... well, I'll certainly be jumping for joy for that.

Y'know, I feel like we've already had this discussion just a couple of days ago but you really need to stop and think about what you say before you say it.
I'm autistic, watch your mouth. No need to go around being insensitive.
I wasn't insulting autism, in fact, I'm autistic myself as well.

It's the fact the movie treats autism as a joke since the movie has the Yautja kidnapping the lead kid because to them autism seems to be the next stage in evolution which comes off as insulting. One of the biggest criticisms I and many had with the movie. The movie is what I was directing it towards too, not autistic people like you guys and myself.

You guys clearly misunderstood but that's probably bad on my part. I probably should have been a little more clear.

If it makes you feel better or worse...any future good CN show will end up on HBO Max

better to be a timed exclusive than permanent...unfortunately like Infinity Train if it doesn't get cancelled

Also, Disney + Predator = PG-13 at best.

That's not going to work.

That and Predator at heart is a horror movie, not an action movie. Not an action-COMEDY movie like the 2018 movie tried very hard to be.

Bro, I swear the age gaps are so weird. Like, the half your age plus seven rule seems to not apply to redditors.

Guh-Huzzah! Guh-Huzzah! Lamperouge Lamperouge

In case you didn't see my post regarding the autism comment. It was directed towards the movie that treated autism like a joke and insulting people (The Predators kidnapping the lead kid as they see autism as evolutions next step) like you Guh-Huzzah and I and not towards autistic people. I admit I should have probably been a little more clear and careful with my post that it didn't seem misinterpreted, sorry for the misunderstanding.

As someone who uses reddit on a regular basis I feel called out


Then again I'm mostly just on subs like r/aww, r/yugioh, etc. If that wasn't obvious enough

There's a time in a place when a franchise desperately needs to end or die.

The Predator is one of those.

Apparently hadn't learned from the last movie. Autism is the next step in evolution!
DUDE! NOT COOL!

Did you even see my other comments? I said it was directed towards the movie, not autistic people themselves. I admit I probably should have been more clear and careful. How about reading the pages before commenting next time before posting?

As mentioned the movie insults autism by having the Yaujta kidnap a kid because autism to them is the next step in evolution.

I myself am autistic as well and was insulted by that movie for what it did.

I swear you people apparently don't look at the other posts I made. I confessed I should had been more careful and clear of my comment that the autism thing was directed towards the movie itself and not autistic people, which I myself am.

Again it's directed towards the movie in which the Predators kidnapped said kid due to seeing autism as evolution's next step which I was criticizing it for and many others has. Do you guys even read? This was a total misunderstanding and misinterpretation which again I confess was my fault for not wording it carefully and clearly.

I saw them after I commented.

Even though you didn't intend to insult autism people (I wasn't aware you were autism yourself), the poor wording can and was construed as such.
Please be more careful what you type.
