Frozen and Frozen 2 both look like movies that were way cheaper to make than some of the other big Disney properties (like Big Hero 6). A few characters walking around sparsely populated settings. Maybe they are spending money on stuff I'm not noticing, like spending a ton of extra time on the nuances of character animation or the snow and water simulation, etc. But Frozen had a solid plot, great designs, and top notch songs. Hopefully they can match that in the second.

Probably something that happens in the lead-up? Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. There's something about the feel of these things that is too worried on showing that the characters squish and move all the time. Bugs is just all running everywhere at all times so it's just this numb series of explosions with little payoff.

Maybe they read Tails Gets Trolled and thought a scythe is an appropriate weapon for a necromancer.

Elmer has a scythe because hes a hunter in the Bloodborne universe and Bugs is a beast.

Wile E. Coyote and Ralph Wolf As an aside, you know which WB toons needa a comeback? These two!  The mustached worm is another one. I have a really big soft spot for a lot of those one-shot styled cartoons they made with characters like this, Hubie and Bertie, and a bunch other oldies about travel, farm life, zoo's and other mundane things made weird via the magic of cartoons. doomrider7 fucked around with this message at 05:05 on Jun 13, 2019 |

I love that one of the marked positive reviews is summarized with "It took Pixar decades of technological innovation, but they finally made a beautiful piece of trash."

I think about the only thing I'm interested in with Toy Story 4 is the duck and bunny duo. I'd rather the movie was just about them

I feel like Pixar movies are just about the worst-case scenario for using RottenTomatoes, because even their worst movies have enough admirable qualities that very few mainstream critics are going to say "this is crap, don't watch it". Which is basically the only way to ding that 100% rating.

Which is basically the only way to ding that 100% rating. I've come to realize that RT is not a good metric of measurement since it just goes by positive reception and not actual thought. Like, one of the critics gave it a 2.5 which I take as meaning, "Meh, it was fine", but it still contributes to the 100% fresh. This is where Metacritic comes to use as it gives a more rounded score.

A lot of Pixar movies I watch and then never think of them again. 3 is a blank except for the fire scene. For whatever reason, 2 is the one that really sticks with me.

RT does both. They have their positive/negative review scale but they also aggregate an average numerical score too.

Toy Story 3 is actually a lot of fun to read into symbolically since it's basically a journey through different ideas of the afterlife, a fitting followup to the existential themes of the series.

now THIS is how you make a patreon shill video. and there are few more worthy of support than Felix Colgrave. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QYxJ69pY0E&hd=1 if somehow you are unfamiliar with his works, he is an incredibly talented surreal animator and has made some of my favorite videos ever. like DOUBLE KING https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_MSFkZHNi4&hd=1 the official music video for SOURCE by Fever the Ghost https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RHFFeQ2tu4&hd=1 and the most recent video commissioned for Cypress Hill's Muggs is Dead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVb8_ZN9T6g&hd=1 he is absurdly talented, give him your money Captain Invictus fucked around with this message at 13:23 on Jun 14, 2019 |
