Inescapable Duck posted:It's quite a surprise that the franchise managed to sink lower than The Tom And Jerry Movie. It's like executives over at WB went "Disney is raking in a fortune by remaking their classic animated features as live action movies, what do we have that can cash in on this craze?" and someone went "Wait a minute, how about we just do a shot-for-shot animated remake of one of our live action classics?" and someone else went "The audience will never buy it .... just add in some extra scenes of Tom and Jerry dancing around and we'll call it 'all new'!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs-tu4fj4zA

Young Freud posted:The gently caress? Is this from the same movie? It looks like a different animation team worked on each still shot. Everything so off-model. I'm pretty sure they projected and traced over the original film's frames for most of the adapted scenes instead of drawing them from scratch using animation models https://i.imgur.com/hzucWc8.gifv https://i.imgur.com/bZSZio9.gifv Edit: Oh man, they couldn't be bothered animating new dance moves for them but they also couldn't be bothered animating every frame of the original sequence so they just traced every other frame and called it done so the end result is that their feet just wobble about the place randomly https://i.imgur.com/XWIeXqP.gifv https://i.imgur.com/2Vt5kwx.gifv Edit: ha ha ha, the background artists were obviously supposed to hide the yellow mushroom behind a vine or something but they forgot so it looks like it just leaps onto Wonka's cane from somewhere below frame

Will the soul who creates the 2017 thread be brave enough to buck the trend with "greenlit" instead of "greenlighted" again?

Tom and Jerry cartoons are loving bizarre. I left their adaptation of The Nutcracker on in the background one time. It was largely devoid of any violence until the end when a rocking horse with self esteem issues got her confidence back and smashed Tom's teeth out with a hammer.

The Tom and Jerry movie was bad but not as bad as it seems, it is the future of cinema, brand and fanfic convergence that devours the souls of the original media and produces a shambling husk that wanders the Earth for all eternity until it is devoured for an even more shambling husk. It wasn't even the first movie they've don in that fashion, the Wizard of Oz toon where they wander around the 1939 movie was popular enough they made a direct sequel to it. That's what that franchise does now. Another example of this was the live-action A Christmas Story that combined nostalgia with network tv's perchance for gimmick events attempts at ratings relevance.

Also I watched this in theaters last night for what was probably my last theater experience of 2017 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPZ_4522XU8 As far as Filipino super hero comedies go, it was upper 2/3rds!

I remember Siskel & Ebert bitching that the Tom & Jerry movie wasn't 90 minutes of the two trying to kill each other. A) Those guys get it B) Gotta wonder if both of them saw a little of themselves in T & J

Sorry, been doing my annual tradition of being sick over break because an idiot coworker shows up to work while sick, otherwise I'd be more active Notable failures includes Inhumans - the first two episodes of the Marvel series no one talks about because it's just that bad were released in theaters so they technically count. I also enjoy having them count to annoy the film critic snobs who are upset about Twin Peaks showing up on top movie lists. An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power - I guess this is a failure in that I forgot all about it and it did terrible considering what it was a sequel to. The Snowman - They didn't even film the end of the movie! Monster Trucks - Holy crap, was that this year? time really flew. King Arthur: Legend of the Sword - this seemed abstract enough a few people really dug it but everyone else wanted to bury it. Ghost in the Shell - Whitewashing YouTube Video Essay: The Movie The Emoji Movie - at least they got it out before the star became the focus of multiple rape accusations The Mummy - A movie so bad it killed an entire universe Random stuff Amityville: The Awakening - delayed forever but I didn't see it so dunno how bad it is, pretty bad iirc from twitter CHiPs - I don't remember this either except for the trailer having a bunch of jokes about people in their underwear bumping their junk onto faces Power Rangers - not that terrible but not that good, also got undeserved LGBT praise for a throwaway line Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets - looked great, felt bland Justice League - this might be the most controversial pick as it is a crazy mess that has bits that are really good but is literally a different movie every cut, has a bad guy so generic he makes even Marvel's Dark Elves villains look interesting and nuanced, and one of the leads is from planet Uncanny Valley

I don't need Naomi Watts or that kid I guess to suffer just because they took a lame job. Trevorrow is apparently also really really difficult to work with, so having one huge bomb under his belt could very easily give people an excuse to toss him aside.

Watts will always get good work, Jacob Trembly is the wonder boy right now, Henry was in It, Silverman has stuff, Moynihan has SNL. Trevorrow has nothing. NOTHING. Not even Jurassic World, who he passed for Star Wars lol. (I guess he wrote it, but still.)

Doubtful, considering Paramount has like three other Transformers movies beyond Bumblebee in various stages of development and there will always be some executive somewhere thinking they've got the secret to the Marvel machine formula.
