It was literally a meme, a very funny one admittedly. Ryan Reynolds is pretty much the funniest and best option they could go for. (and has experience with CGI characters!)

Ryan Reynolds is just a nice topper on this magical Pokemon nostalgia cake.

ishikabibble posted:Danny DeVito is a lovable pop culture icon and the first twitter person who proposed him being the VA for Detective Pikachu just said it for the hilarious contrast something like that actually would have, and not actually because he's the perfect VA for the role. Everyone who complained about it later is just latching onto the meme. I played the game and he seemed pretty grizzled to me. Ryan Reynolds is too jokey. Pikachu needs a serious voice to contrast with his adorable appearance. But it's done, so whatever.

Bert of the Forest posted:Danny Phantom reboot starting Ryan Reynolds confirmed. That sure was a show that seemed huge at the time then was forgotten, as far as children's cartoons go anyway. It seems like the kind of idea that'd be a lot more interesting in a remake allowed to have more continuity and nuance, and a cameo from the Real Ghostbusters. (It's so easy to imagine Danny's parents being hysterical fans of the original Ghostbusters)

It was a very pretty movie with very little substance that jumped from set piece to set piece and never took time to slow down for emotional development because I guess they were gonna do that in the sequel. The Jack drowning scene was good. But as someone who didn't read the book, the whole moon thing was random as hell.

So, Smallfoot. I was gonna do a whole effort post but I'm too tired all the time so instead: Cool things I liked: The Yeti society of the film, while initially presented as a parallel to a broadly typecast conservative majority, is revealed to actually be more like the Nation of Islam, as a fundamentally reactionary community whose ideology is itself an organic response to historical oppression. And while the film is explicit in how this model of separatism ultimately only replicates dominant ideology and turns it oppressively inward, its conclusion is bizarrely similar to something like Barack Obama's initial, not so much defense, but his refusal to "disown" Jeremiah Wright. The point being that while it's convenient to write off these insular groups as merely "wackos" or "reverse racists" or whatever, their incendiary rhetoric has to be reckoned with as a conceivably rational response to broader systemic problems; and therefore should also not be "disowned," but actually further radicalized as the basis for building a broader coalition of the aggrieved, represented rather overtly in the film by having the smallfoot allies of the Yeti literally crossing a police line to use themselves as human shields. In a way, one can think of Smallfoot as a better version of Black Panther. Not so cool things I didn't like: Every song in this movie was gratingly mediocre and intruded on the narrative with all the delicacy of an Amtrak train going off the rails. Also, it suffers from the inherently cynical precondition of most modern American animated films: they must all be hyperactive, self-aware, broad comedies. They must all begin with the protagonist literally explaining the setting. The overarching comedic framework overpowers and renders insincere any attempt at drama or tragedy. The high point of the movie is like this climactic 5 minutes where it turns into a kaiju movie.

I watched Storks last night, the previous non-Lego film by WAG, and it is uncannily similar, though more prone to whiplashing wildly between comedy and attempted sincerity. Given that the Lego Movie and Lego Batman mostly operate on the same basis I'm left to assume this is a deliberate style choice

While I go gather 'Hartmann is loving cray cray' resources, here's something fun: The long thought lost film of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit ("Neck 'n' Neck") has resurfaced in Japan: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/11/15/disneys-lost-oswald-lucky-rabbit-movie-surfaces-japan/ EDIT: https://www.resetera.com/threads/butch-hartman-fairly-oddparents-danny-phantom-creator-scams-fans-goes-insane.57432/ I forgot about him blaming Tara Strong for another voice actor's suicide.

Catscratch had TenNapel who is currently writing for Breitbart (a far-right "News" site that barely covered up their Swastikas for the non-Americans), which was a shock given I did like Earthworm Jim and The Neverhood. Heard the Hey Arnold guy's a good egg so not all is lost.
