Isnt it annoying that the patterns on their clothes dont move!? - Chowder (2007) Discussion

[–] trainrun76 16 years ago

I think it's great. The first couple episodes it bothered me, but after that I fell in love with it. It really makes the cartoon stand out and makes it more innovative than other animated programs.

I say good job on doing something different. So many cartoons today are basic and boring.

I cant watch this show just because of that. Just like how I couldnt watch rocket power because Otto's dread locks annoyed me.

I got used to the technique after seeing the anime Gankutsuou a little over a year ago. It too utilized a format of characters moving and their clothing/hair texture would change.

"If you should need me, tap this staff three times on a wall."
"Magic?"
"No, it's just loud."

It's not innovative at all. Nickelodeon did it with a short series (the name eludes me) back in '97.

In Rambo, a man is shot by a bullet from a gun and dies as a result

I loved it right off the bat, stylish if you ask me and gives it a real colorful feeling.

SantaBalls: the used to do that on the offbeats. i remember the one boys plaid jacket was like that.

I remember that too! Whenever I see patterns done like that, even not on choweder, i remember watching the Offbeats. And once when my older brother explained it to me way back when, why they do that and how it works and such.

When yr dancing, and laughing, and FINALLY LIVING, hear my voice in yr head and think of me kindly…

It's just the art style. I like it myself. The first time I saw it was in a Bugs Bunny cartoon. There was a guy in a suit and the pattern on his suit didn't move when he did.

In old cartoons like looney tunes, characters with plaid shirts would do the same thing.

This has been done in the world of animation for some years ( and it took me YEARS to get use to it ) So...I'm fine with it . If it was 8 or 10 years...I would of been annoyed .

I agree.

Its a cool kind of animation but i think it gets a little overused in this show.
