Genndy Tartakovsky on the defining moments of his animation career

Gendy taught me English through his cartoons...When my family immigrated to Canada I didn't have to go through the same struggles he did when he came to America because of him...this man's impact in my life can't be overstated...his cartoons set the standard for all the entertainment (especially animation) I watch

[@sergiocrowe9848]

Dexter's Lab was a marvel of my childhood

[@leocarioshiny]

I wish this interview would edit in some of the shots genndy brings up

[@lancepate]

Right, you'd figure the production value of these would be a little better considering who they're talking to.

[@fzcbh4698]

They said that Chuck Jones is Orson Welles of Cartoons. So I think that is making Genndy Tartakovsky is Quentin Tarantino of Cartoons.

[@mistercrool2538]

More like Akira Kurosawa of Cartoons.

[@L0nesovieT]

Not enough n words and 10 second shots of hot girls with dirty feet to be the tarantino of anything

He's on Putin's D List too, so he's even more awesome.

[@Tigerbythetoe]

Always dug Samurai Jack, every episode was so good! I was in my late 20’s when Puff Girls came out, we used to watch it all blazed up. Primal is why I started to become interested in the animator Genndy himself. Learning that he was behind a bunch of stuff that I loved is cool too.

[@zbenkert]

Incredible, this man directed half my childhood! All of these shows are classics.

[@Joi2049]

That mace windu scene of him punching the bots was incredible

Maybe one day we'll get a conclusion.

[@thiagoteixeira6537]

​@xanderholland6086 He did say he'd love to come back to it at some point! The reason it was canceled in the first place is that they couldn't get toys made of it 🤦🏻‍♂️...

[@ashappyasiget140]

OMG grew up watching his works

[@fabulousmyriad267]

I like the "John Hughes meets Robots" quip because Genndy always makes character centered shows with amazing action scenes.

[@c.galindo9639]

Awesome. An amazing talent and spectacular professional in his line of work. He has a great natural talent with his art and teamwork

[@yusufkurdi3582]

I didn't know he created all of this 😳 he's amazing all of this show is amazing😍😍😍

[@shrimpfry880]

Long story short: he's creative.

[@chocofro3]

6:46 I was literally thinking about this scene while he was speaking about the show and did not expect it at the end lol. It is probably the scene I laughed at the hardest in the whole sereis and is the scene I can recall the best.

The dude is a fucking genius artist

[@Hilljo17]

He literally can’t miss !!!

[@2sudonim]

Goddamnit. Now I'm going to have to watch an Adam Sandler movie because I just found out Genndy Tartakovsky directed it.

[@Carium1]

Oddly enough it's one of my favorite a Sandler movies

[@Jack-gi5gx]

Its pretty good honestly

[@Fuzunga]

He directed all three of them.

[@joshuajoe1419]

It’s the best Sandler movie but the worst Tartakivsky project.

[@christinabrown7308]

I'm glad Genndy put "earth shakin' booty quakin'" on his list of achievements.

This is the peak of childhood.

WarnerMedia properties: ▪Cartoon Network: ▪Dexter's Laboratory ▪Samurai Jack ▪Sym-Bionic Titan ▪Primal Non-WarnerMedia property(s): ▪Star Wars: Clone Wars (2003 cartoon (Lucasfilm (part of Disney))) ▪Hotel Transylvania (movie trilogy (Sony Pictures Animation (part of Sony Pictures)))

[@joshuajoe1419]

Actually Star Wars: Clone Wars was a Cartoon Network property with Lucusfilm also coproducing so I’d say it’s a semi WarnerMedia property. Also he has a couple Sony and Adult Swim projects but isn’t going outside of those two companies.

[@manueldejesus3662]

Dexter’s Lab was my favorite.

[@havenspringer]

Imagine the Lord of the rings and The Hobbit with his art style

[@copypaste3526]

I'd love for him to be the art director for a video game. Could be interesting.

[@LooneyCartoonMan]

Every TV show created and feature film directed by Genndy Tartakovsky TV shows he created Dexter's Laboratory Samurai Jack Star Wars: Clone Wars Sym-Bionic Titan (with Bryan Andrews and Paul Rudish, which the latter created his own Mickey Mouse shows that Disney TV Animation is the production company of) Primal Unicorn: Warriors Eternal Feature Films he directed (the ones that are already released) Dexter's Laboratory: Ego Trip Hotel Transylvania Hotel Transylvania 2 Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation

[@maceface2892]

Why would you not edit in the sprcific scenes as he's discussing them?

[@TommyEfreeti]

Shit man Genndy you knew 𝙚𝙭𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙡𝙮 what you were doing with Agent Honeydew, didn't you? And Ashi, shiiiiiiiet. Thanks for Samurai Jack and all the rest!

[@crgaming8102]

Primal is beautiful... I guess. I didn't watch every Episode of Samurai Jack. But I get one thing. Genndy can make good characterwork. Watched the first Episode of Primal. And I love again that he is so ez going with new things. I love the Idea of characters who dont talk. I hope I will love this series.

[@TheRockerX]

"Primal is beautiful... I guess." Lol, that is such a backhanded compliment

[@joshuajoe1419]

@@TheRockerX Ikr, I reread this several times for the part where he insulted the show. “I guess” feels more like an insult than a compliement.
