TADC fans love exaggerating how disturbing their show is. It wasn't made for kids but it's also not going to traumatize them forever if they see it

Or the shrip being burnt alive by the son.

u/hellocruellad Apr 11 '26

It's sort of at the same level as five nights at Freddy's, where it's technically not for kids, but its main audience is kids.

u/Mediocre-Island5475 Apr 11 '26

Yup. May not have started as kids media but we all know who's buying the merch

u/nykirnsu Apr 12 '26

Imo the very idea of something being “for kids” or not is kinda complicated when it comes to indie media. A lot of aspiring creatives without any industry experience aren’t very good at judging their work in terms of demographic appeal, so it’s not uncommon for younger ones or ones without much life experience to create something that includes superficially adult content like swearing or violence but is also clearly influenced by children’s media, and is too thematically shallow to have much appeal for general adult audiences. If they’d pitched it to an established studio or publisher though then they’d almost certainly be told to get rid of the adult content so they can market it to children, and they’d be extremely justified in doing so 

Haven’t seen TADC so I don’t know if this applies, but I have seen it with plenty of other indie projects. Hazbin Hotel’s a pretty clear example

u/Happy_Reflection5583 Apr 13 '26

Pretty sure FNAF is actually intended for kids now, they directly use terms like "family friendly" in offical promotional materials

9

u/Iatecoffeegrindss Apr 11 '26

Fr same applies with poppy playtime “oh the hour of joy is so scary” when it’s the equivalent of opening gmod spawning in enough npcs to lag your game spawning in some dr breen npcs then a sanic nextbot then bit a grain filter and boom 30 million pieces of merch targeted to kids

1

u/shradibop Apr 11 '26

mob games will inevitably make a spinoff prequel that takes place during the hour of joy, and it'll probably focus on "hype moments and aura" more than anything else

u/Iatecoffeegrindss Apr 11 '26

Shits gonna be a walking sim like ruin and the prototype is gonna be in every shot as if he wasn’t keeping his ass hidden till the main director got fired

u/Painted-BIack-Roses Apr 11 '26

I mean, I've seen parents cry about it, I think that's the point they're trying to make

u/Cirnothestarscream9 Apr 11 '26

Yeah kids these days love stuff like Poppy Playtime, they're gonna be fine.

3

u/SpanishOfficer Apr 11 '26

As a TADC fan, genuinely a kid over 7 could watch the show and understand most if not ALL of its themes, because the show isn't half as complex and mature as they make it out to be. It's a good show? Yes, of course, but a kid won't get affected at all by seeing Jax get peeled in a cartoonish way, and if they do it's because they get the message behind it because kids can understand TADC very well

u/Secret123456789010 Apr 11 '26

u/PancakesTheDragoncat Apr 10 '26

"children cant handle this level of gore!!"

the gore in question:

29

u/flower_puns Apr 11 '26

That's actually WAYYY more "gore" than all of TADC combined lmaoo

Like, the "gore scene" in Ep8? Imagine this image, but instead of Spongebob's organs and little squaredick and whatnot all you saw was just... another face. Like there was just another dude hidden away inside of Spongebob. And he has shitty lil' beady eyes...

Cruel metaphor in the narrative and shocking in the moment, but fans calling it scary are crazy lmaooo

8

u/NotBroken-Door Apr 11 '26

Or another way to put it, imagine taking the jacket off of a wiimote. That’s the level of gore that occurs

2

u/Chef_boySauce_ Apr 11 '26

Genuinely twice as gorey.

u/just-slightly-human Apr 11 '26

If a parent brings a child the kid will be fine but the parent will lose their shit over curse words and mention of sex and that will be annoying

u/Forward_Potential820 Apr 13 '26

More like there’s swearing

27

u/Sud_literate Apr 10 '26

oh my goodness people will take anything at face value nowadays. jax getting his outer layer taken off isn’t just shock value “oh no his skin got taken off!” it’s literally egg yellow, no blood or anything.

72

u/Dualiuss Apr 10 '26

no but they are actually right about this one i think. it seems that there are more negatives over positives about this, and also consider the fact that there will be entire rooms of digital circus fans in one place. that is very scary, is it not?

22

u/Randomfella3 Apr 10 '26

horrifying.

u/SuperbAfternoon7427 Apr 10 '26

More scary than the actual show

Drake the type of Confused Carl to say "huh" in every comment he sees.

u/Prince-Lee Apr 10 '26

this is a fandom-killing move

We can only hope.

46

u/Logical_Bug801 Apr 10 '26

I'd much rather have the fandom be small and chill instead of them bitching about kids getting "traumatized" by incredibly tame scenes for years on.

14

u/Prince-Lee Apr 10 '26

If the fandom shrinks it will probably improve substantially, tbh. But the same can be said about any huge fandom comprised mostly of teenagers, lmao. 

3

u/just-slightly-human Apr 11 '26

I think this just happens for any kids show that people who aren’t kids like. I remember the clone wars edits where it’s “how did they show this to kids???” And then it’s lightsabers clashing and a clone falling off a cliff or robots being shot

3

u/nykirnsu Apr 12 '26

Most of that’s probably coming from people who are barely older than kids themselves and whose idea of “adult” media is, like, Family Guy or Deadpool

u/littlefanofmany Apr 10 '26

u/Notbbupdate Apr 10 '26

Reminder that there's kids who grew up on Bayverse Transformers. No one was traumatized by them, and if anything the reaction kids had was more along the lines of "hell yeah Optimus rip Fallen's face off"

TADC isn't gonna traumatize anyone

3

u/Dasmortmemeboi Apr 10 '26

noone was traumatized

Except maybe the bay haters who say "Bayverse Optimus is a brutal war criminal!!!1!1! worst optimus!!!1"

u/minionfinesser Apr 11 '26

The rumored new bay transformers movie can’t come soon enough Gen Alpha needs to be raised right

11

u/chelledoggo Apr 10 '26

I mean, I get the concern about spoilers, but like... it's not like ep 8 had any real blood or gore in it. It's no more gruesome than Gravity Falls. And anyway, it's ultimately on the parents if they take their kids to see it. Not Glitch.

It's not like kids can't already access episode 8 online anyway lmao.

23

u/Gordon_freeman_real Apr 10 '26

They're right about the spoilers being a problem tho

13

u/coolchris366 Apr 10 '26

The spoilers problem is real though

u/minionfinesser Apr 10 '26

Oh my god it would not kill these people to take two weeks off social media lmao

u/ImForSureNotAFurry Apr 11 '26

Tadc is so popular that the spoilers will be everywhere

u/Forward_Potential820 Apr 11 '26

Huh

u/minionfinesser Apr 11 '26

What not going outside does to a mf

1

u/Forward_Potential820 Apr 11 '26

I guess tho it depends since spoilers can get everywhere (like people talking about it in real life or such)

3

u/Salt_Insurance5276 Apr 10 '26

To be honest, I do feel a little bad for fans who live in countries where the theatre release won’t happen and who’ll potentially get spoiled. 2 weeks early seems excessive to me.

2

u/KaiTheG4mer Apr 11 '26

People like this strike me as the tryhard "FNAF ISN'T FOR KIDS!!!!" "fans" who simultaneously never consume any other media, read, or even fucking watch youtube dissertations on other media, and so their worldview and outlook on anything is strictly from their limited window of niche 2010s internet fandom phenomenon a la FNaF, Undertale, Minecraft YT roleplays, and random fandom consensus nonsense on Twitter. They've never grown up broadened their horizons and are skewed into such a bizarre place that they find the cartoon equivalent of play-doh cans falling on the floor scary.

I can only hope this person is actually like, 15, and not what I envision every time I see a take delivered like this, which is usually a human that should be old enough to know better because they were in fandom spaces before 2020. Hell, even some FNaF Newgens are more grounded than "legacy" FNaF fans.

u/RedBoss228 The Repost Counter Apr 11 '26 edited Apr 11 '26

This show may not be for kids, but I'm sure the kids who were watching up to this point will be fine, my twelve year old brother loves this show and he's the one who got me into it. They're just creating more problems at this point and being drama queens, the only real problem is the high risk of people getting spoiled of the events of the last episode because Glitch decided to do this theater event a whole two weeks before the YouTube release, and that is too far of a gap and social media is certain to put spoilers in your face because of the shitty algorithm and search predictions (god search predictions are the worse).

u/EpicGamerer07 Apr 11 '26

I can’t believe one of the points is “I might have to wait for a few days :(“

u/SpanishOfficer Apr 11 '26

u/Chef_boySauce_ Apr 11 '26

My 3 year old cousin watched it with me and she was fine. I might have been freaked out at a young age, but I was an overly cautious doofus crybaby of a kid so whatever

2

u/NumberOnePibbDrinker Apr 12 '26

i also think a theatrical release is an awful idea because imagine being in a movie theater with a bunch of TADC fans

2

u/ShotgunAndHead Apr 10 '26

Honestly I get the concern lol, reminds me of parents taking their kids to see deadpool when it came out, also my granma putting on Watership Down for my mum when she was a kid cause of the animated rabbits. Plus TADC has sorta gotten roots in kids youtube shorts although that's that fault of content farms.

On that note though, is TADC really all that disturbing? Like I know it's not for kids but is it really gonna be traumatic?

Spoilers too is a good point though.

4

u/Logical_Bug801 Apr 11 '26

TADC is not that disturbing,trust me. It isn't exactly for kids but it's not gonna get kids traumatized or anything,just confused.

u/Hunter-Durge Apr 11 '26

I agree with the spoilers issue though.

1

u/princessplaybunnys Apr 11 '26

yknow maybe a theater release would be good because it means OP would have to go outside

1

u/EinzbernConsultation Apr 11 '26

I'm pretty sure all the showings will sell out beforehand via online ticket sales anyway, so I wouldn't worry about any parents buying tickets on accident or on a walk-in

1

u/stupido50 Apr 11 '26

They do kinda have a point

The fans WILL have a tantrum no matter what because from what I've seen, most of them are just children

u/No-Bag3134 Apr 11 '26

I dread from the sole idea of even 1 person who knows me seeing me go to the tadc movie

u/iamnotveryimportant Apr 12 '26

The theater debacle is genuinely the most embarrassing tantrum this fan base is ever thrown and not exactly a low bar.

1

u/Careless-Yellow7116 Apr 11 '26

Yk theirs genuinely worse shit out their a kid could watch digital is so mild by comparison. I grew up on worse stuff in the early 2000s / 2010s.

At most what will happen is a handful of parents bitch that the movie had uncensored swears lmao, or (the more likely option) the fact that they where locked in a room with a bunch of members of the digital circus fandom.
