Those are some nice looking quads you got there. I was going to scroll past this thread, but I decided that quads deserve a response.
Okay, when I saw the preview image, I thought, "OP, I'll take your word for it." It was a movie I had never seen and probably wouldn't see. As I watched the trailer, I realized that I had seen the entire movie. I just forgot about it. That is really the take away. It isn't a terrible movie – just forgettable.
Oh, how the times have changed…
Oh shit, the Minion designs got even more unoriginal.
Ultimately, it is just like you say. Not awful, but simply not standing out.
But for many people who watched it back at release, it was awful. I remember it as one of the most hyped up animated movies of recent years - not only did the trailers show kick ass action, together with amazing pumping up music, it was also being advertised as the movie that will change everybody's way of looking at animated movies.
Tim Burton was still seen as as somebody by many, and not just an edgy manchild making the same thing over and over.
And then the movie was average. And did nothing original. Did not even have the cool music.
It's like a teeny-tiny "Spore" of Holla Forums **maybe Holla Forums*
...
could you not bring up Spore
I don't know what else you could've expected, unless you were an edgy kid/teen who couldn't tell that grittiness didn't necessarily imply substance.
The entire advertising campaign for this movie only seemed to be based around the idea that this movie was dark and "mature" (the tagline in the trailer was "this isn't your little brother's first animation", or some such tryhard bullshit like that.), but as we learned, "epic and dark and cool and sick bro" is about as mature as a fourteen year old deviantartist at the time. Which is exactly the the type of person that loved/love this movie. That's why this movie didn't change anything.
It's like four years old.
I remember the trailer but, never seen the movie. Anybody able to give a rundown of what happened in it?
Try seven.
It came out in 2009.
I would, but it really was completely forgettable.
From what I remember it had something to do with an old man in a post-apocalyptic world creating and bringing to life the doll characters and then dying, then 9 and the others went on a journey and gained souls or some shit at the end.
I think. I'm sure someone else remembers it more accurately.
Remember when people hoped this would usher a tend of "more adult cartoon movies"? Yeah…
I watched it a few months ago actually; I honestly cant remember much of the plot so Ill give you a summary of the wikipedia article
DUDE FOOD LMAO
Then what the fuck would the scientist's plan have been if none of them died?
You know, I legitimately thought the ending would have been where all the dolls become absorbed by the machine, and since that would make the soul of the professor whole it would become 'good' and attempt to fix the world or something.
Maybe not a GOOD ending but I still think it would have made more sense than bacteria rain.
I don't really think that was his plan. He just wanted SOMETHING other than a machine to be running around the wasteland. So he made a load of fucking dolls
Wait. It was bacteria? I just assumed that the souls mixed in the rain to restore life. Either way, it still felt like it came out of nowhere and doesn't make sense with how roundabout it went for the movies climax.
This was based on a short, right? I remember watching this several times whenever it's on tv and it's still forgettable and feels really drawn out. Too long for what it was trying to accomplish even though it has a shorter runtime than most movies now.
He gave his life (literally) to a bunch of dolls who couldn't do jack shit while the world was FUCKING ENDING around him. The Dolls were running around while the machines were skynetting the human race. This is something I never understood, why make dolls with your lifeforce as humanity's last hope after the end?
We'll probably get a new wave of shallow comedic animated films that appeal to normies on a massive scale, comparable to how Simpsons led to family guy, and most of the stuff on adult swim (correct me if I'm wrong).
The problem with this is that normals will be the biggest demographic, and all they'll ever want is family guy tier comedy films; and publishers won't ever want to touch anything that's dramatic or not comedy-focused. Not after Beowulf.
I bet you anything with a stylish look that isn't heavily comedic will be dismissed the same way anime is by the mainstream public.
I was technically referring to this
It was a cool universe, but a lot of wasted potential.
I give it a 6/10 LOOK MOM I'M IMDB
I still play spore :^)
An ending where the newly ensouled machine realizes the magnitude of its sins and starts to redeem itself by starting the arduous, millennia long task of returning life to the world would have been much better.
Fuck; Where did the time go?
Langolliers ate it, duh?
...
Into the garbage, which is your favorite place to put it.
that hit close
9 freaky looking puppets are bought to life by a mad scientist, and yet somehow Slipknot weren't involved in making this.
Looks about as edgy as it would have been with them involved though, just less metal.
But that movie was good. What are you saying user?
Well played.
This movie's fucking problem is that they took an animation student's school project and stretched it into a feature-length film. Then they marketed it as an action film with Coheed and Cambria's only good song blasting in the background, but neglected to mention that all the action scenes are contained within that one trailer.
I'm not saying it was bad; in fact I loved it. I'm just saying that I don't think it's a coincidence that we haven't seen another AAA box office release in that vein in over a decade. It was rare to see such a big western animation production go the way of an R rated action movie, and it was really risky. So risky that it might not have done well in terms of profits compared to how expensive it probably was to make.
I digress though, most of these statements are pretty much just assumptions based on my personal experience. I just don't really know anybody who reveres Beowulf as a classic at all, nor do I know that many people that actually saw it or bought/payed to watch it. Combine that with no other movie like it being published, I can only imagine that executives weren't satisfied with the financial turnout and now don't want to risk anything on that kind of project again.
It's just easier to make your animated films rated g/pg because it's too difficult to market towards an adult crowd that's already indifferent towards animation.
Remember when movies were good?
Yeah, it sure fucking did. Your point, user?
my entire point was that I can get quads AND post a related video
How the fuck am I supposed to find porn of this shit with a name as generic as 9
rule34.paheal.net
not many pictures, tho
Those digits.
I found actual CP on YouTube and it wasn't deleted for almost 3 days, but videos about this movie I'm having trouble with.
Is my YouTube app cursed or something? Does it have a gremlin?
Didn't you know? Posting child rape is a less severe crime than copyright infringement.
Once upon a time ago, many years gone past, In a time where the Dude Von Doom and Captain man had a decent podcast, and the exodus was unthinkable… A group of Holla Forumsmrades from the floating city did venture out into the realm of streaming and braved a movie called "Delgo".
You motherfuckers know about delgo?
Ha. It's funny because it's kinda true.
But you know what would happen if corporations were able to make money with CP?
The boring badly done cluster fuck with the battle scenes that look more like swarms of angry bees fighting then war between two tribes.
Yeah, I know know about it…unfortunately.
Eh it was allright. Story has been done before but the environment they set up was interesting.
also had this good song.
The pacing was all wrong so it only felt like they got finished establishing the world before the ending. A ending that was pretty bad.
I think part of the reason was they were hoping that the movie would spawn a series or more movies. But since the movie bearably made its money back in the box office those plans where pulled.
So all we got was a film with a dark atmosphere, thin plot, and way too much time spent establishing the world for it to go nowhere.
Maybe if they did not neuter the fuck out of the movie to be sure it got a PG-13 rating it would have done better. Even though I have seen pg films that pushed things more then the uncut version of the film.
Thing is as long as there is an established demographic for adult animations then there is always a potential for some gems to emerged from the sea of shit.
Adult Swim is actually a good example, since while it is mostly shitty shows that rely on being "adult" as a substitute for actual humor it did produce a few genuinely good shows.
...
I think it was more like an attempt to allow humanity to live on in some form, because he knew they were wholly fucked.
Of course, this raises a ton of questions, since science was the killer, so he used some weird magic to do something that made no sense in hopes of preserving humanity's legacy.
