wait, so Nickelodeon didn't even want to show the movies?
why?
Probably couldn't determine how they fit into their broadcast schedule or how to market them
Is this blog legitimate or is there another source? It looks more credible with social media involved and all but with the Timbox spam using blogspot I can't be sure
Because Nick is aimed at kids and these movies are aimed at people who watched the network when they were kids. Since adults are more likely to just look it up online instead of having to track down Nick's schedule, it's easier to just sell them to Netflix.
It's legit, it's got at least 16.3k followers on Twitter
sweet can't wait to download them from MEGA
Thank fucking CHRIST its just the distribution rights
Fuck netflix and fuck shills
Because Nickelodeon is such a superior source of cartoons these days right?
Nick has been at this for a while now offloading shows to Netflix.
Heck I'd not be surprised if at some point They just aquire Netflix.
Nflx threads are rife with sexualization of minors and shipping, nick shows less so(?)
Also how theyre low framerate and not aesthetically pleasing, probably cost/time cutting. sanjay and craig had much more fluidity and humor than any Netflix toon, imo Nick makes better (new) cartoons for kids while netflix makes mindless mass produced tripe that can also appeal to their more adult userbase
So yeah nick>Netflix>powergap>loud house
We all saw that coming.
>nick shows less so
/tlhg/ has been nuked multiple times for real life child porn
They premiered the Arnold movie almost without promoting it and was a rating failure... if you consider that Rocko and Zim are less popular than Arnold and more oriented towards adults, the decision is logical.
>Nflx threads are rife with sexualization of minors
AKA the superior threads
It's legit, they sourced it from an official Viacom conference
>People bitched about this not coming out forever
>Finally gets news it's coming out
>At the end of page 10 with 15 replies
Lol this board sometimes
Or they're acquired by Netflix.
>Sanjay and craig had much more fluidity
Not hard to do when your characters have no actual structure.
It's about damn time.
>Rocko and Zim are less popular than Arnold
What are you basing that on? I'll grant that Rocko is more niche than Arnold, but Zim has a way more visible fanbase than Arnold.
Netflix previously acquired Nick's Pinky Malinky show so they've done this sort of thing in the past
youtu.be
Ok so what other company out there treats their shows with respect?
its an announcement of
"IT WILL HAPPEN"
not when.
>Rocko and Zim are less popular than Arnold and more oriented towards adult
um, no? Arnold as a character is very static, mellow, and plain, And the supporting cast are mostly the same until you get to know them. There is really nothing that makes it more appealing to kids, other than "he's just like me". and on top of that, they kept forcing in characters and callbacks that added very little if your unfamiliar.
Both Rocko and Zim are colorful, energetic series, that don't rely on character arcs, logic, or even empathy. Either one would have been far better for kids these days.
Kinda makes me think this whole reboot campaign was purposely sabotaged by some exec, so they can say "we tried, but it didn't work"
They probably wanted to avoid another Jungle Movie where it got shit ratings due to cable dying off.
Good to see they will finally be coming out
Now we need a release date
>Netflix
Begone censor THOTS
