Oh, the short collection where he stole the idea for his totally original cartoon. Even the review has some beautiful illustration.

Stealing an idea from a Disney short, so very true. If you think that's bad, get a load of this.

He thinks that if one show is even the least bit similar to something else, that automatically means it's ripping it off.

3:11 - According to him, 'Coconut Fred' rips off 'Spongebob' because the cast of characters just happen to have a few similarities. Logic at its finest.

7:56 - 'Drawn Together' apparently rips off 'Shrek' because they parodied 'Beauty and the Beast' in a similar way. Then he somehow gets the idea that 'Shrek' is what they were supposed to be parodying. No one in that episode ever said anything about 'Shrek', I don't even think they ever referenced it in any episode.

11:18 - Just because 'Lunatics Unleashed' combines action with slapstick that automatically means that they're ripping off 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles', because that totally isn't the logical conclusion of re-imagining characters with slapstick roots as action heroes.

17:20 - This Australian show called 'Pixel Pinkie' features a main character with a magical companion who grants wishes to help her in her dilemmas in life, therefore it rips its concept from 'Fairly Odd Parents'. (On a related note, I've heard some people accuse 'Fairly Odd Parents' of having ripped off 'Doraemon' before. It totally didn't, the concept was just similar. People have been writing fiction for ages, there simply aren't any 'new' ideas anymore.)

19:40 - 'Da Boom Crew' had characters fighting robotic bugs in a desert landscape as well as a scene when one of them goes through one in slow-motion, so it obviously ripped off 'Samurai Jack', because robotic bugs, desert landscapes, and slow-motion attacks aren't commonly used concepts. (You know that one episode of the original 'Teen Titans' when they first met Terra? How it began with Terra fighting a giant scorpion in a desert landscape?)

This guy uses the term "rip-off" awfully lightly, especially for someone trying to make a cartoon that's "inspired by" something he saw on Disney Channel.

I think this guy is an idiot, and I am NOT saying that to be mean. I honestly do think he's an idiot and I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out he has a condition.
