So what's next for him?

>In 2016 a crack animator team was sent home by a court of public opinion for a crime they maybe have committed
>John K, Vic Lasagna, Julia Vickerman, and Jesse Zuke lost and forgotten by the western animation industry.
>Today, still barred from the industry they survive on neetbux. If you have 3 dollars and a shitty pilot to be made maybe you can hire The MeToons

90% sure they wind up teaching at a college unless they get really lucky with royalties. That's probably a decent and comfy way to end your career. You get to keep your job by virtue of your reputation and some of the kids probably look up to you personally. It'd be a more genuine version of the "Uncle Walt" lifestyle that Disney wanted to live.

>whats next for him
a gun in his mouth most likely

He literally wrote on his blog that he only lives thanks to comissions and Spumco related merchandise.

Well,duh!
John himself said so on the DVD so he isn't taking credit for it dumbass.

Yes.

probably retirement

No one gets rich making Nicktoons.

if only nicktoonists got the same treatment like Dan "Get in the van" Schneider

The Rurouni Kenshin guy got caught with kiddy pr0n and he still has a career.

Japan are retards.

He is and always will be a one hit wonder
And if he's not making anything off that show he's not making anything

Except Viacom themselves while the creators get pennies

Must be why he did a Simpsons couch gag despite shittalking the Simpsons every chance he got.

Why would the Simpsons producers hire him anyway?

He’s a famous animator with a unique style, say what you will about him. It’s not like they wanted him to produce a full show, just a couch gag

He did two.

>Question: First things first, how did you end up animating an opening for The Simpsons?

>John Kricfalusi: Matt Groening and Al Jean [executive producer] asked me to do it. They showed me an opening that Banksy did that satirized the animation production assembly line system in Korea and told me it was really popular, so they wanted to do something similar with me.

>So what's next for him?
Shoving a revolver barrel into his mouth and spraying his memories all over his toys

Screw you guys, I still like John K.

and there are people who still love R Kelly
doesn't mean you're not retards

>Does the guy even have enough Ren and Stimpy money left to last him in old age?
He can probably get by through selling stuff to his die hard fans like any other washed up celebrity. But yeah his career is dead. Even if the social climate changes enough to overlook him being a pedo he'd be too old to produce anything that connects to the youth.

This is getting into Reddit territory here. I'm out.

Does Nickelodeon still send him residual checks for Ren & Stimpy? I imagine that being the creator of the show he's obligated to get some money from the studio every now and then.

Residuals for what? Airing R&S late at night on TeenNick? Can't imagine that amounting to more than a couple dollars every once in a while.

Only cartoon creators who got rich working for Viacom are Trey and Matt, and that's only because Viacom was stupid and let them have all of SP's internet revenue.

He claims his only source of income is commissions and merch. If he got any money from R&S reruns, I think he would have said so.

He must be charging a lot for commissions then. Doesn't he live in LA still?

actually that's legal depending on the state.

People still worked with roman polanski. People are retards. Never forget that.

If only these people knew how many of their "heroes" were monsters with skeletons in their closets.

He probably gets some money, but it's next to nothing. Bill Oakley once showed off a couple residual checks he gets from Simpsons reruns, and they were only a cent each.

John K is 100% guilty of grooming, there's no maybe about it. There's that special feature on one of the old box sets of R&S where he brings the girl out and practially gives her a fucking creepy uncle back rub while fawning over her artistic talent, out of nowhere.

Add John Lasseter and Chris Savino to the list.

I like ren and stimpy, even the spike TV shit(ren seeks help is up there with space madness) but John K is a fucking creep.

But remember in europe fucking teenagers is okay, but only if you're a European

how does someone get "barred" from an entire industry?

it's called blacklisting. the animation "industry" is not very big.

Blatantly sexual grooming your teenage protege and acting like a massive dickhole to most of your peers and booses

>booses

Pretty simple, nobody will hire them because of their reputations and the damage that could do to their companies.

He's getting old, he has a soiled reputation, his style isn't very fashionable anymore, and he can't finish any projects on time or budget.

The hell does that mean?

He's admitted he has bipolar disorder.

Man, Uncle Ghastly is looking a lot better.

he's a pedo user

There's a lot of retarded hero worship, but you're acting as if literally no one in the world is able to compartmentalize a shitty personality with creative output. I think Harlan Ellison was a giant cunt but I still think he did good work.

I agree with this. I said I like him, but I don't like everything about him. Bill Burr puts it well.
That's reasonable.

>The lines were recorded so long ago that VA for George Liquor, Mike Pataki, died a decade before this fucking short was finished

God, it's so embarrassing.

>Suicide
He'll just die of old age at that point.

I wouldn't feel that much better if he blew the money on grannies instead. He's still an irresponsible hack.
