In summary, people can be attracted to cartoons, but it is disturbing if someone has a serious crush on something that someone drew.

Ok, had a disscussion other night with my sisters. we were watching aladdin, i called aladdin hot. My younger sister agrees, adding that the prince from the little mermaid was hot too. My older sister disagrees with me, but agrees on the prince, also stating that undoubtedly, dimitri from anastasia is the hottest of all cartoon characters.

Now my question for you all is, can a person actually be attracted to a cartoon? i mean, sure there's the physical aspect, but i mean, they do have personalities too. Is 'liking' a cartoon character just the same as liking an actor, or an actor's charater, or does the cartoon's 2d-ness or uh... un-3d-ness er, animatedness, yeah that's it, does that make a cartoon un-attractiveableicall... well you know what i mean.

Cartoons can be attractive to a point, but I find it disturbing if someone has a serious crush on something that someone drew. That is why I have never understood why people enjoy the japanese adult cartoons.

Try to understand the young frustrated guy who spends most of his time in front of the computer. Someone draws that character, but he draws the perfect woman in his eyes. If you happen to have the same taste in women as the artist and you haven't seen enough almost perfect real women...
But anyway, these days I'm watching the women volleyball european championships. A lot of these girls and many of the girls look much better to me than any pornstar I've seen. So, for me, real beats virtual by far.

I can paint a picture so that it looks more real than a photo (a technique called Trompe l'oeil, which means "Fool the Eye"). Computer graphics, Television images and Movies are just electronic impulses or projected light, not the real person. So what is the difference?

If you have a crush on J'Lo (Not my type, but just for the sake of argument), Your chance of her falling in love with you is about as good as it is with Jessica Rabbit falling in love with you.

Ariel from little mermaid is a babe. When she can't talk, she is the perfect woman :smile:. Just kidding. Personallity is very important.

Actually, my wife tells me that I look like the Prince in Disney's Sleeping Beauty, who she found attractive in her younger days.

1. What makes a cartoon "hot"?

The term "hot" can have different meanings in the context of cartoons. It could refer to the popularity of a cartoon or the level of excitement and action in the storyline. It could also refer to the attractiveness of the characters or the humor and wit in the dialogue. Ultimately, what makes a cartoon "hot" is subjective and can vary from person to person.

2. Are hot cartoons suitable for all ages?

It depends on the specific cartoon. Some hot cartoons may contain mature themes or language that may not be appropriate for young children. It is always best to research the content of a cartoon before allowing children to watch it.

3. How do hot cartoons impact children's development?

Like any form of media, hot cartoons can have both positive and negative impacts on a child's development. On the positive side, they can promote creativity, imagination, and critical thinking skills. However, they can also contribute to sedentary behavior and exposure to potentially harmful content. It is important for parents to monitor their child's cartoon consumption and set appropriate boundaries.

4. What are some popular examples of hot cartoons?

There are many popular hot cartoons, but some notable examples include "The Simpsons," "Family Guy," "Rick and Morty," "South Park," and "Bob's Burgers." These cartoons are known for their humor, wit, and engaging storylines.

5. How has the production of hot cartoons evolved over time?

Cartoons have come a long way since their early days of hand-drawn animation. With advancements in technology, cartoons can now be created with computer-generated imagery (CGI), resulting in more visually stunning and realistic visuals. The rise of streaming services has also allowed for more diverse and boundary-pushing content to be produced. Additionally, the internet has opened up new opportunities for independent animators to showcase their work and reach a wider audience.
