Trends do bring the cynics and uninspired, but they are a stepping stone in the evolution of animation. The current trend in animation is not objectively bad; it's just another art style that fits in animations that its appropriate for. Just because it's popular doesn't mean it's automatically bad, lazy, or soulless However, I am very unsympathetic towards the people in the animation industry as a whole. I see a lot of smug nepotism and "the unenlightened masses" mentality that runs rampant with many of these people. I also believe that the CalArts style when done badly should be criticized. Misuse of the art style should also be criticized. The reason why people hate Thundercats Roar is not because "they changed it, so it sucks", but because of the inappropriate genre-shift and the animation style being poorly used and highly inappropriate for the franchise. I al sympathize with the people whose 2011 show got cancelled because it was replaced by a show that was much cheaper to make, and the viewers end up getting blamed even though they had nothing to do with its failure. I think that a lot of this drama wouldn't even exist if people would just stop using Twitter, which has a terrible form that forces people to oversimplify their worldviews and encourages confounding language, and instead discussec things in a more open-minded and nuanced manner.
