- Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
- You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
- Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
- Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

MODERATORS
maybe they regard it as a separate revenue stream, so they can doubledip into what their demographics and marketing departments tell them are two completely independent audiences, cartoons vs live action. There's gotta be some reason because there's nobody who wants this, nobody who thinks it's a good idea, and nobody who is not filled with trepidation and a vague nausea at its release, who is also a fan of the original show.
I also don't believe it can be true that there is a subset of people who are too manly/serious and "absolutely will not watch cartoons" that overlaps with "would watch this obvious adaptation of a children's show".
But yeah, they don't think that way I guess. Anyway I'm just glad it's not another butcher job. Gonna give it a while before I watch it, I want them to understand this is nobody's priority. (An Earthbender Avatar, however.... that's day 1 binge territory)
