new episodes are up?

The voice acting bothers me less than the weird-as-hell timing on the action. Entire show feels like its paced like a internet cartoon.

It's like drawing someone in the "superhero landing" pose. It's just part of the cultural vocabulary at this point.

I can hear that post... *shudder*

So why does Cyberverse sound like . . . *that*?

Also, the theoretical new image would be a new compostion, it would just be individual bodies, or even just body parts, that are based on existing references by other creators, with the major caveat that there is more than one example for each reference so it's basically more like "following an established trend" than "copying someone's original creation".

Well, an homage is usually marked by a signature along the lines of "artist X after artist Y". I wasn't thinking about recreating something particularly memorable, just looking for reference images (just of a pose/perspective/layout) that looks like what I want, then finding more examples that just happen to look very similar, and it cannot be determined which version came "first".

What you're describing is more an "homage" than plagiarism, really. I'm assuming you would be using different characters. It's basically like all the comic covers that homage the death of Supergirl cover from Crisis on Infinite Earths...but with different characters. It's not plagiarism, it's a reference. But if several artists have a memorable layout and are all using it, chances are it actually is referencing something memorably original.

Would that still qualify as plagiarism? After all, it could be argued that what I've recreated isn't that original to begin with since several other people have supposedly had the same general idependently from each other.

And I were then to create a new image, not traced but maybe "swiped", except I wouldn't copy a specific source image, but merely recreate the basic pose and perspective shared between all of them...

*deleted*

And out of sheer coincidence, they all feature very similar ideas, concepts, poses and/or perspectives, supposedly with none of the original creators having copied from one of the others...

Assuming I were to find not one but two, three, four or even more source images, all of them by different artists, or by different photographers depicting different models...

Just out of curiosity, a question regarding the concept of plagiarism:

That game needs a remake

I am Error.

There is no error. There is only Zuul.

The unicron singularity fixes all continuity errors.. including Power Rangers related ones now!

I reject your canon and substitute my own

Answer: It doesn't matter because even if there was one, it was never relevant in S1 and it got blown up with his original body

Most people think Transformers canon is a series of discrete parallel lines, really it's more like a big ball of canony-wanony... stuff.

Hate to say this, but the simple answer is that you are thinking too hard and realistically, it does not matter.

Don't tell me what to do.

don't cross the streams.

Or is this what AVP meant when he said that condradictory streams formed the JG1 timeline?

I don't like that idea.

In Ask Vector Prime, it was mentioned that in the Beast Wars 2 universe, Convoys all have Energon Matrices and that when Optimus Primal from the Japanese Beast Wars stream was transported to the Beast Wars 2 stream, his history was subtly altered that he too possessed an Energon Matrix. What does this mean? That Beast Wars 2 is actually not canon to the Japanese Beast Wars?

yeah, I've got a few others that I need to check out/get removed. The nose one is small but annoying since I hit it every time I blow my nose.

Try to get a histopath examination if it isn't too expensive over there. It's probably just a mole but I'd think certainty would be better.

@unluckiness I know, plan to get it removed but gotta get an appt first

oops... typed that in the wrong field.

gizmoboy

That is not a good thing, especially in the long term

So who wants to hear about this mole on my nose that I keep scratching open

Yeah, it's kind of defeating the purpose of making political discussions more restricted if you're just gonna go at it elsewhere on this site.

that would probly fit better in the p & r thread. its there for things just like this

The citizens resisted by buying up all the town's beer reserves so the Nazis would have to stay sober the entire time.

Meanwhile, congratulations civil resistance, part 2: So a group of Nazis were holding one of their Good Old Times Reenactment festivals in a small East German town.

It's basically like an anti-Trump candidate winning Texas.

The mayoral elections of Istanbul are considered to be a key indicator for the political climate in the entire country.

This time, it was a landslide victory for the opposition's candidate.

After president Erdogan had a court revoke the results of the mayoral election of Istanbul after the opposition party's candidate had won by a small margin, the election was repeated today.

Congratulations, democracy part 1: Today is a historic day for Turkey.

Convert, does he timeout?

Did he form the feet and legs or the arms and body?

Nah, he was one of the Lions

Is he a Shellformer

Supposedly it's about that football player Calvin Johnson.

I'm vaguely confused why there is a Nicki Minaj song in my youtube reccomendations, but even more confused as to why that song (which appears to be from an official account) is called "MEGATRON".

Alpha Q all night long.
