Cartoons, by their very definition, are exaggerations. When human beings are animated, they’re almost never drawn with realistic proportions. The Simpsons all have four fingers. Arnold from Hey Arnold has a head shaped like a football. All the Peanuts kids’ heads are so big, it would be impossible for them to walk upright in real life. Heck, cartoon characters don’t even have to be humans at all! They can be talking animals, or extraterrestrials, or a completely fantastical creature from someone’s imagination.
So, what happens when you edit an exaggerated cartoons to make it look like a real person? Things get creepy. You might love Homer Simpson more than your own children, but I guarantee that if you met Real Life Homer Simpson, you’d run away screaming.
