Animation is the imagination laid bare for all to see, our own personal constructed realities shared with others, story telling in it's purest form, or just a bunch of funny shit drawn for people to laugh their arses off to. It's all good.

The origin of the newgrounds style?

Posted by TheBoogley Oct. 19, 2009 @ 9:10 PM EDT

Without Tex Avery we wouldn't have sexy chicks, racism, paranoia, rapid fire quick gags, and death in cartoons. In other words there would be no Newgrounds. What do you think?

This is a great documentary on the man.

.

Here's my favourite of his films, Bad Luck Blackie. it's a difficult choice because almost everything he touched turned to gold.

.

A close second is this, King Size Canary!

.

Oh, and I've been sick a lot lately so I'm doing a 21 day liver detox to clean out the old booze processor. For the next month I can't eat anything other than fresh or just cooked fruit and veg. No bread, no meat, no sugar, NO BEER!! I can eat some nuts and wholemeal pasta or brown rice. It's going surprisingly well, except for the fact that I'm constantly running to the toilet.

here, have some of my germs!

Newgrounds style is like a hacked version of the style you're mentioning. I GOT IT DOWN TO A SCIENCE!

Newgrounds Quality = (Tex Quality / Amount of Newgrounds Users) - Gayness

Gayness = The number of cartoons + games that contain genitalia of the same sex as the person/s whom created it.

Also, wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooos hhiiiiiii.............

Oct. 19, 2009 | 9:55 PM TheBoogley responds:

can I see this in some sort of a graph, or a pie chart.
mmm, I think we could all use a slice of pie chart right about now.

oh and, hi there! good to see you here or something!


Oct. 19, 2009 | 9:54 PM JJgamer93 says:

Thanks for refreshing my mind with childhood classics, I may only be 16, but I grew up with these cartoons too!

Oct. 19, 2009 | 9:57 PM TheBoogley responds:

That's great news, I wasn't sure if you would've seen these cartoons with all the powerpuffs and dexters labs and stuff. In the eighties all the cartoons were terrible so we'd all just watch stuff from the forties and fifties. Except for the transformers and the smurfs, god damn I loved those little blue bastards!


Oct. 19, 2009 | 9:55 PM omegared says:

I love Tex Avery. I think he was a genius. Nice cartoon posts.

Oct. 19, 2009 | 9:58 PM TheBoogley responds:

I think you might be right! :D

I hate my mom.

Oct. 19, 2009 | 9:59 PM TheBoogley responds:

thank you, that's very relevant. I'm not sure how Tex felt about his mum (yeah, that's right, "mum". We Australians can't spell)...

The strip tease animation demonstration on the first video is where the furr

you're supposed to eat healthy while drinking. the two cancel each other out and leave you medically neutral.

So sorry man!

Get well soon!

And once it's all done. You enjoy yourself all the bread and meat in the world!

Oct. 19, 2009 | 11:33 PM TheBoogley responds:

thanks for your concern but don't worry, I don't mean really really sick or anything. I've just had a cold that wouldn't go away, so I'm getting myself extra healthy to help fix it. It will be great to get back into dodgy food again though, I'm munching on raw carrots for lunch right now.

You should get on AIM more often.

I miss you giving me pro FBF tips :c

Oct. 20, 2009 | 12:07 AM TheBoogley responds:

nah man, AIM is too distracting, I'll be in the middle of a pose and "quack quack." I barely get enough work done as it is... :)

Don't forget the dick jokes.

Newgrounds is nothing without dick jokes.

Oct. 20, 2009 | 12:54 AM TheBoogley responds:

I'm sure Tex would've been doing them if it was possible back then!


Oct. 20, 2009 | 12:28 AM rtil says:

yeah the first thing i think when i go to newgrounds is how proud tex avery would be

Oct. 20, 2009 | 12:55 AM TheBoogley responds:

I'm going to pretend that's not sarcastic... and then wind you up a bit more by saying that this site is his legacy, a shine to everything he stood for! :3

Soups and juices are nice, but lettuce can get stuffed!


Oct. 20, 2009 | 9:30 AM McBean says:

Yeah, there would probably be no newgrounds without Tex Avery paving the way, but there wouldn't be anything in between either. The style of newgrounds is pretty hard to define, but I see what you're trying to say that Tex Avery was just doing his thing and changing the status quo of animation and newgrounds kind of does that too, to a certain extent.

But damn his stuff still holds up. He's definitely the best cartoon director of all time.

Oct. 20, 2009 | 4:55 PM TheBoogley responds:

except for the guy who made gumby of course :)


Oct. 20, 2009 | 12:56 PM Emanhattan says:

poor little bogley wont have his beer to make animations :{

Oct. 20, 2009 | 4:55 PM TheBoogley responds:

it's all going to be realistic and boring now :(


Oct. 20, 2009 | 1:17 PM omegared says:

I don't think Newground's style has much to do with the legacy that is avery's... I'd say it had more to do with the immature minds of Tom Fulp and Stamper, plus a few other people willing to cross lines of social acceptance and farce, in the sites childhood years. Without somebody else getting grosed out or angry at this site, it never would have grown the way it did.... It's edge was it's edge. ;)

Avery was similar. VERY SIMILAR. And he probably was one who warped the minds of many kids from his debut of cartoons till around when I was a kid watching cartoons. By that I mean you can probably only see his work on youtube or boomerang now a days. I used to watch Looney Toons every day as a kid and even the Tex Avery Show. I'm 22 now. Back then, Cartoon network praised Tex several times a year, with informational tidbits and commercials... So I know about him like many kids of the 90's. Most kids with TV watched Cartoon network, and they had a good glimpse of his work, weather or not they know it.

The fact is that our youth is like clay and it does get completely molded by our surrondings... ...

I think it's safe to say that tex played a part in many peoples lives up until late this decade. But newgrounds style was mostly built up from a new style known as pushing the bar: Violence, Spam, Cock jokes, Blood, Gore, and poop are what built newgrounds from the ground up. Avery's style was more or less aimed at adults watching his stuff. I don't think many adults know what Newgrounds is.

My two cents... I don't usually care enough to add them to anything. But I liked what you had to say Boogley.

Oct. 20, 2009 | 4:58 PM TheBoogley responds:

thanks mate! With what you said in mind I think maybe they should put his picture on the twenty dollar bill! :D
