And, I never said that people couldn't enjoy it, or that I didn't want people to enjoy it. In fact, if you READ my post, the thing that was upsetting me was the fact that I wished *I* could enjoy it, like everyone else.
* sigh *
I don't want everything to be correct and staid and dull and boring, and I don't want to censor anyone or make anything "unallowable". I don't want to ban anything. I object to the very concept of banning things. But I'm bang alongside reasonable criticism, and I thank you for providing me with some.
I think, possibly, that I would have been less upset by the animation if I had actually found it funny/unusual/new, rather than a tired rehash of things I had seen a thousand times before. And therein lies the danger with using stereotypes as a basis for humour - it gets tired and old very easily.
But I stand by what I said about the quality of the animation. It was very well made.
