It's funny because there's kind of this weird trend where these great actors' final movies will be these really terrible animated films, like academy-award winning Anne Bancroft's final picture was an animated film noted for having one of the worst box office openings of all time.

And it would be really sad if this thing was Sean Connery's last picture.

You're thinking of Orson Welles, right?

I wish the Jim Parsons character didn't drag Home down because Tip is a great protagonist

and of course the film ends with a dance sequence

I will look for it! Recommend some good episodes of Laser Time in the meantime?

LT has such a broad spectrum of things it covers that your best bet is to scroll in the feed and see what tickles your fancy. Plenty of animation related episodes. They also do Talking Simpsons as its own show which is great.

The new LT episode about the history of the Disney Afternoon with an interview with Tad Stones is one of the best episodes ever.

EDIT:

HAH! Searching "John K" on Youtube brings up my video about what an rear end in a top hat he is to people in his own industry as the first result. I tried it logged out too, so my profile settings wouldn't affect the results. Good job, internet.

Agreed, to the extent that I'd say it's, like, just a phoned-in narrated opening and dance party ending short of greatness.

Thank you! Yeah, I have to do something about Bluth. My Spielberg series was a while ago now and I've been wanting to do it since then. Been meaning to watch all his movies again too. Maybe now that my girlfriend lives on the other side of the country I'll have time.

I really wanted to like Home, but I have an irrational fear of alien invasions ever since I saw War of the Worlds at a very impressionable age. It's stupid, but I couldn't enjoy the goofy alien parts at all just because I was internally horrified the whole time. Also, I figured out what the conclusion was going to be really early into the movie which was kind of lame.

That said, I liked Tip a lot, she was an awesome protagonist and her mom was really cool. I also really loved the way her hair animated :3:.

I remember my babysitter rented Scream when it came out so she could watch it and then she rented me a movie to watch alone upstairs. It was Mars Attacks and ho boy did it gently caress me over for a while. I didn't realize it was a comedy for like a decade.

I have good news, then: The film is about colonialism and your existential dread is completely justified. Especially because of the dance party ending.

Oh gently caress, Mars Attacks hosed me over too. My dad loved that movie and would make me sit with him and watch. I don't think I could stomach it even now, as a nearly thirty year old adult.

Oh and the way the aliens in Home talked was really grating. I think that made it even harder to get through, besides the horrified dread of forceful interstellar alien colonization.

That film hosed me up fierce as a child and, Ill be very frank, that this film has put a deep seated distrust of aliens in me Ill probably be the grandparent on the porch with an Earth Pride flag and being sushed in polite conversation about them goddamn greybacks.

I watched it on Netflix. Then watched it again a couple days later just to look for little background details and poo poo I may have missed the first time.

That's okay. I'm pretty sure I caught the bit of Hitchhiker's Guide where they blow the Earth up after showing the people on Earth fearfully protesting their imminent demise and it kinda screwed me up for life too. Can't watch Titan A.E. or any Hitchhiker's adaptation, even though both seem like they'd otherwise greatly intrigue me, and it took me a good while to get into Star Wars cuz of Alderaan.

Probably because it's not that funny. I got traumatized by this film also, in large part the burning cattle stampede because I know cattle and they're sweet doggos you eventually eat :qq:

Ugh, yeah.

I was a good bit older when T3 came out, but the ending unnerved me quite a bit. That resignation that the world has effectively ended made me different than any apocalyptic movies I'd seen before that. The movie wasn't even that good.

Oh man, I thought I was the only one. Mars Attacks can go gently caress itself.

edit: Yeah, Terminator 2 was pretty terrifying as a kid too, but it was still a movie I would voluntarily watch, in a horrified fascination sort of way. Mars Attacks was just unpleasant on every level and I have had nightmares about those goddamn cows, man

Canine necks are awesome, so you can't blame them at all, now can you?

According to IMDB Steele had an entire unit of almost 20 people, including key in-betweeners.

All of them were into:

Necks and their Floof. (Also chest floof)



Crazy Eyes



Cheekbones




Accordingly, the the character designer and animators went on to work on things like Madagascar, (giraffe necks, lion neck floofs), Corpse bride (necks, eyes), Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron(many necks and associated floofs)

None of them worked on Balto's design or were even in the same building because he was animated in such a horribly boring and sleepily stoic way. "Ohh, I'm brave and conflicted about my self identity. Boohoo. Why won't Steele notice me?"
