Sir Lemming posted:Luca made a decent first impression and has only gotten better with time. When you get past all the confusing discourse about whether it's really a metaphor for LGBTQ+ stuff and whether studio mandates got in the way... it still holds up as just a really solid "accept people's differences" story with beautiful artwork and a nice low-stakes Ghibli-style vibe. (I mean, you can definitely read gay subtext into it and I have no doubt they were trying to go there, but whether by design or by studio intervention, it is not there in the text. And it gets confusing when you consider that his parents are also sea monsters, so are they prejudiced against themselves, or...) A metaphor doesn’t have to have complete 1 to 1 correlation. Do consider the two old women who out themselves at the end of the movie though.

Some things about this adaption will definitely take some getting used to but overall it doesn’t look too bad (also I kind of like Grandpa Splinter)

I think emphasizing the teenage part instead of the ninja part is a really strong choice. I am excited for it.

Wittgen posted:I think emphasizing the teenage part instead of the ninja part is a really strong choice. I am excited for it. The last couple adaptations have focused on that, and it works surprisingly well. I think it helps they strike a decent balance between, these guys are awkward social outcast teens but also a firm and loving family who have spent most of their lives with nothing better to do than practice ninjutsu. Personally I'm just adoring the faux-claymation style, it's hitting some very specific 90s nostalgia buttons for stuff like Plasmo.

After so many absolutely terrible versions, I'm not even particularly nostalgic for TMNT despite watching the first cartoon when I was a kid, but I actually think I want to see this one I'm getting more of a Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse vibe in a good way

I don't think there's ever been a crossover because Spidey and the turtles would just get along way too well.

It just occurred to me that we are probably dangerously close to a Bee Movie remake (live action or not). The memes are going to Morb it into existence.

Batman vs TMNT was real good. I like how it's one of those where instead of how the comics did it, they don't bother with any portal poo poo (despite both franchises having precedent) and just having a setting where the turtles' NYC and Batman's Gotham City both exist, and the characters aren't any particular incarnation but clearly incorporate elements from various versions. Also kinda funny that the Batman vs Shredder fight highlights that they're actually pretty similar in presentation and fighting style, being ninja martial artists who mostly leverage their strength, just Batman leans more towards technology while Shredder more to skill and mysticism.

I think after the world watched Sony buy into the memes and re-release Morbius then watched it fall flat on its rear end second time, Paramount won't make that mistake. Then again, expecting a major Hollywood studio not to make a dumb move is a dangerous call.

One of papa nurgles farts? There's actually a bit in the IDW comics where the Ghostbusters themselves swap theories of Slimer's origins, which include nods to some proposed origins from previous side material. The commentary apparently jokes that he's the ghost of John Belushi. (and they also have the cartoon ghostbusters meet the movie ghostbusters)

i've seen some bad parenting in animated films but this mom in Next-Gen takes the cake!!!! e: this is a film about how a bullied kid's life can be improved by having a gun. i am enjoying it but the messaging is so all over the place that i kind of have to ignore it. i do appreciate it showing may going overboard and realizing she's going too far with it at least. but lol. this is as messy as it is fun e: e: odd 2nd-half pacing, I have kind of beef with how so many animated movies are 100+ minutes now when the 75-80m runtime of yesteryear made a lot more sense for animated film story structure, it ends up having an entire 30 minute climax and I think that's a bit much. in the end i did like the film though. more meaningful sacrifice than iron giant imo The 7th Guest fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Jun 1, 2023 |

Rewatched Batman Mask of the Phantasm and mourned a bit about how so many animated movies with bad stories get great animation but this movie has a great story and animation that is so inconsistent. Some sequences really work and others are like “oh the offshore studio didn’t quality control this or understand how to time out the poses…” Thankfully Batman Beyond Return of the Joker moves incredibly well and part of the highlight of Jokers performance is just how well they can accentuate his emotions with proper timing and great expressions. Oh yeah and I watched the new Spiderverse and it’s a masterpiece. I’m in the minority maybe as someone who enjoys the first one more though

The inconsistency you speak of is probably the result of the movie shifting from direct to video to theatrical partway through production. Coincidentally, they just announced a 4K release for later this year.

It's a shame a lot of the DCAU movies are inconsistent in quality. Phantasm and Return of the joker are solid films. Then you have things like the Freeze movie, mystery of Batwoman, and the Brainiac attack film that are less so.
