I feel like people are confusing premise and motifs with plot. Ratatouille, Cars, A Bugs Life, Toy Story, and Wall-E all have very different plots.

There's a lot of Pixar movies where the plot is that someone have to make a journey and meet a quirky companion.

I think you're speaking to what I'm saying...

Meeting a quirky companion isn't a plot. A lot of Pixar movies involve pairs/buddies (Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc, etc) and a lot of Pixar movies involve the inner-lives of things that don't have inner lives (Toys, ants, cars, robots).

But the story of a father learning to move on from an intense trauma, the story of someone who is successful choosing to give up ease and success in the name of what's right, an outsider being accepted for his talents in a field where he is seen as undesirable, a young boy reclaiming his family's heritage, a father learning that his family provides him a whole new type of strength if he's willing to let himself feel vulnerable, a city slicker superstar learning to appreciate the simple things in lives, a robot rediscovering humanity, and a remake of The Seven Samurai are all really different plots even if there are superficial similarities between them.

James Marsden has had a weird career, man.

Looks decent. The new design is so much better looking and in line with the aesthetic of the series.

https://twitter.com/TAHK0/status/1194227675734298626?s=19

I'm almost inclined to believe the conspiracy theory that they released the bad design first just to drum up publicity for the movie. Either way, I hope all the animators got compensated decently for the work it took to overhaul that.

They used "Gangsta's Paradise", for some reason.

There were many things that made that first trailer really bizarre.

Anyway, yeah, the Not-Horrifying-Looking-Sonic in this one is a much better take.

Holy smack. Putting the Green Hill Zone music at the beginning makes it a lot better. Did they completely fire the company that did the first trailer?

Edit: The one thing I miss from this is Jim Carey going full Eggman.

yeah whoever decided that "Nightmare Design Sonic set to Gangster's Paradise" was the tone they wanted to set was a moron, the ramones and Supersonic set the Saturday Morning Cartoon vibe that a Sonic the Hedgehog movie should have

New Spongebob movie

Okay that cameo made me laugh a little.

Also a new Trolls movie

And a new Ben Affleck movie
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzNJVSsjE-I

That Michael Bay has a new trailer too. Sort of.

While it's disappointing that the Spongebob flick isn't going with 2D animation, I love the quasi-stop-motion, semi-2D thing they've got going on. It's so refreshing to see something that's not just lazily aping the Pixar house style.

Agreed. It looks so much like Ubi-Art Framework that they used for the recent Rayman games.

Looks like filming of this movie began a few months after Ben checked himself into rehab after Jennifer Garner's intervention. I wonder if the project was a sort of cathartic exercise/release for him. I hope it was :unsmith:

The premise reminds of Hardball with Keanu Reeves though—which isn't a bad thing imo. Hardball owns.

But then he did Jane Got a Gun and The Accountant and those were both pretty dumb. The Accountant had some fun shooting at least.

The Accountant was great because the movie had an autistic man but autism is not his superpower. It's his military training by a really intense father hoping to help him overcome autism instead.
