Ruined FOREVER (Darth Wiki)/Western Animation: Difference between revisions

** There's a second season? [[Its the Same So It Sucks|That's basically a redo of the first?]] [[Ship Sinking|And they practically killed off most of the couples?]] RUINED FOREVER!

** The third season is called ''Total Drama, The Musical''?<ref>Now renamed Total Drama World Tour, but there was still singing.</ref> EPICALLY RUINED FOREVER!

* EVERY SINGLE EPISODE of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' has had this accusation hurled at it [[Unpleasable Fanbase|by one fan or another.]] Go back in time to the ancient days of usenet and you'll find post after post declaring each and every episode the "worst episode ever" (the phrase actually originated on a Simpsons forum) and destroyer of the franchise. This even applies to the ''very first episode'', which some fans of the Ullman shorts hated. Today, no matter how good or bad an episode is, you can bet someone somewhere on the internet will make an overdramatic "this is the end of The Simpsons" post about it.

** Other things which have ruined the Simpsons forever include: the movie, the butterfinger commercials, the Coca Cola super bowl commercial, the Tik Tok music video in the opening (regardless that anime productions use pop songs in there openings and endings '''all the time'''), and anytime Matt Groening says anything to the press.

* Western Animation in general has always had someone declaring it [[Ruined FOREVER]]. [[Winsor Mc Kay]] declared it ruined forever when they started using cels, it was declared ruined forever when it moved from movie theaters to television (not entirely [[The Dark Age of Animation|without reason though]]), and now with the advent of computer animation, crudely-drawn [[Thick Line Animation]] and the influence of anime, it's once again considered ruined forever by many.

* ''[[South Park (Animation)|South Park]]'' is pretty much ruined forever in the eyes of the fans thanks to the episodes {{spoiler|"You're Getting Old"}} and {{spoiler|"Ass Burgers"}}.

* Vocal anti-furries sometimes complain about their entire childhood being ruined forever after seeing fan art of old cartoon characters, whether sexual or not. Sometimes ''non-fanart'' furry art still gets this reaction, possibly stemming from the idea that [[Animation Age Ghetto|anthropomorphic animals should be limited to kid shows only]].

* ''[[The Looney Tunes Show]]'' recently released some artwork online, and the reception from some sites (especially [[Cartoon Brew (Blog)|Cartoon Brew]]) was less than positive. Also "Woah, the [[Looney Tunes]] are living in a suburb and looking like something in the vains of [[Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt (Anime)|Panty and Stocking With Garterbelt]] instead of doing solo cartoons that look like '''a [[Tex Avery|real]] [[Bob Clampett|cartoon]]!'''"

* Similarly, ''[[Loonatics Unleashed (Animation)|Loonatics Unleashed]]'' got and continues to get this reaction from fans of the classic ''[[Looney Tunes]]''. kind of stupid once you consider that the characters on this show are technically different from the ones in the original shorts.

* The (definitely noticeable, but relatively minor) redesigns to a couple of characters from [[Shaun the Sheep]] [http://www.shaunthesheep.com/forum/read/39795/1 ruined it forever].

** Haters of the show frequently have this reaction when ponies are added to things they enjoy watching or listening to (such as in the case of PMVs, or remade anime intros featuring ponies, etc.), especially on [[YouTube]], [[Hate Dumb|surprise, surprise]]. Usually their argument for [[Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch|why the show is terrible]] and why they [[Fan Hater|hate all the fans of it]] is that it's "ruining the Internet", or "ruining" the medium the ponies have been applied to, even though it was them who clicked the link and watched the ponified media in the first place. And yes, this does lead to many a [[Flame War]].

** Lauren Faust said that she's no longer working on the cartoon? [[Big No|NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO]]!!!

*** And do we even need to mention Cupcakes?

*** Rule34 Art exists, but good luck finding a fan who will ''openly'' admit to enjoying them.

* [[Seth Macfarlane]] is rebooting ''[[The Flintstones]]'' and now it's been RUINED FOREVER!!

* Many, many fans cried foul upon learning that the [[Sequel Series]] to ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' would be called ''[[The Legend of Korra (Animation)|The Last Airbender: The Legend Of Korra]]''. Partly because it's a mouthful, partly because it's an [[Artifact Title]], and partly because it brings up memories of the hated [[Live Action Adaptation]]. Even among people looking forward to the series, you won't find many happy with the title.

** Thankfully, the show is now simply titled [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|"The Legend of Korra".]]

* ''[[Futurama]]'' has been accused of both [[Jumping the Shark]] and being ruined forever ever since the fifth "season" (the four movies are counted as this) and the revival.

* [[Disney]] took over [[Doug]] from [[Nickelodeon]]? RUINED!

* ''[[Ben 10 (Animation)|Ben 10]]'' has a veritable amount of this, ranging from the [[Darker and Edgier]] [[Ben 10 Alien Force (Animation)|sequel]] [[Ben 10 Ultimate Alien (Animation)|series]], handling of certain villains (Vilgax considered possibly the worst offender), and it seems to be starting again with the announcement for ''[[Ben 10 Omniverse (Animation)|Ben 10 Omniverse]]'', which sports a new visual style and gives a brand new redesign to teenage Ben.
