(Sorry I suck at spelling) As you all know RWBY is known for referenes. The problem with this is, they arnt thematic. First you have fairy tails, then novels (Wizard of Oz) then Historical figures (Joan of arc) then the velvetene rabbit. A good example of a piece of media that is thematic with its many references, wreck it ralph. In wreck it ralph all the references are video game references, so when they reference something, even if you dont know the exact reference, you can tell its a video game reference. It just seems like Monty is referencing stuff that dont fit together. I mean whats next a character based of Mickey Mouse, then a character based of OJ Simpson. It sort of comes of as lazey almost like he throws darts at pictures on  a wall and then goes I got it, we need a character thats like Jack ryan (read tom clancy books) Though every one has their own opinions
