It's basically about disability and how people with disabilities are treated.

Quality-wise, it's good. It's not amazing. It's Finding Nemo 2: Dory Edition
>>
Just saw it too last night

pretty damn good movie, a little tad too familiar in the beginning but it was really starting pickup as long as they reached the marine institute. And that what makes the movie felt fresher than the predecessor. The new characters were great, especially Hank The Octopus. But somehow, I felt it lacked of little charm of Pixar's best.

I put it right in the middle compare to other Pixar films, definitely not their best but it was really good.

I still found Zootopia better overall

Remember guys, with RT you have to apply the Pixar Bias Scale, where each point is actually worth five.

100% = 95%
99 = 90
98 = 85
97 = 80
96 = 75
95 = 70%

This is a solid C movie.

actual jew here.
I don't know how they (or in this case "we") do it. But I do have ideas.

They built up SUCH good vibes when their movies were more original, and less predictably sentimental all in exactly the same way, that people convince themselves they're seeing the same spontaneity again.

They're not.

They lost me at Up, when the start convincingly made me emotional but then it was jammed together with a movie full of talking dogs. I felt like the grab for my emotions was fake.

And that's how it's been with every Pixar since.

Brave has a 78%, dude. It should have a 28%.

You can already tell just from the trailers it will be at least better than that. Whether or not it's as good as ParaNorman remains to be seen.
>>
>>83828036
Ever since it got announced, I've been trying to call the plot:

Does she find her family, not to be remembered, and decide Martin and Nemo + company were her family all along?
>>
>>83833918
Wouldn't it be neat if film critics could review movies without knowing who made them? Like those blind taste tests where the tasters end up rating expensive brand food that they think they like better more poorly than cheaper ones they would normally not buy. If Brave could somehow be put to that test I think a lot of people would mistake it for a different studio.
>>
>>83834142
They will definitely make a point that Marlin and Nemo are her "real" family at some point, no matter what else happens. It very well could be the lesson at the end or a climax near the end, but they also could get it out of the way and brush it off quickly at the very beginning with a line like "I know you guys are my family now, but I still want to find my mom and dad. Will you help me?"

Pixar formula:

1.) make generic animated film
2.) at one or two scenes loaded with emotional manipulation
3.) put that logo with the lamp out in front of the film
3.) sit back and watch as critics hail it as a masterpiece and you win Oscar after Oscar over superior competition because 'muh Pixar feels' trump all
>>
>>83834990
Yes.
Doesn't hurt that Ellen Degeneres is the main character, and everyone seems to suck up to her.

Add the Pixar bias reviewers have, the speculation that there are gay characters and voila! You've got a critically acclaimed film that'll undeservedly win the Oscar over Zootopia!

P.S. That "The Force Awakens" has a 92% on RT should be enough to invalidate the majority of modern film critics

Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if this were the case.

I mean, we're talking about fucking Disney here. They literally ARE the film industry, and have been for the past few years.

Of course there is the occasional flop, but it always seems like the films they make that aren't critically loved are ones that are not vital -- i.e. non-franchise films or original films (Alice in Wonderland is only two films and Tomorrowland wasn't a franchise yet so its failure was confined to one film).

Then again there's always the chance that critics are just blinded by nostalgia and their childhood, and can't bear giving a movie surrounding one of the cartoon characters they grew up with being bad. Also the cult-like nature of Ellen's fans and people towards her makes me contemplate the existence of the illuminati, much like Beyonce's success does.
>>
>>83837296
Film critics nit-pick movies for a living..except when it comes to Disney films it seems. Those they handle with kid gloves and judge on the basis of "fun".

Also it's one thing to say a film is good, it is another to go all in an throw praise like 'best animated film of all time' around like they do with the majority of Pixar films which, let's face it, are for the most part vastly overrated.

>After 21 years, the Pixar formula is still very satisfying. But it also feels more like a formula than ever before.

>>
>>83838318
I bet he still caved and gave it a good review though.

And yes, while I realize movies have always been "produced" at least older films gave the impression that there was an actual artist behind the camera. I know it isn't all Disney's fault, but I feel like they've only made this issue worse in the past couple years and have accelerated it to the point where it is very difficult to defend films (at least mainstream films) as an art-form.

Give me studio filmmakers like George Stevens, William Wyler, Fred Zinneman, and Billy Wilder over 99% of modern "filmmakers."
>>
>>83838382

Pixar has been pushing the boundaries of what can be done in children's animated films (Ratatouille, Up, Inside Out), while Walt Disney Animation Studios has been mostly tapping into 90s nostalgia (The Princess and the Frog, Tangled, Frozen).

None of this is even remotely as cancerous as Marvel movies and live-action remakes of Disney's classic animated films.

Of course, your millage may vary, everyone is welcome to their own opinion. But writing off all modern movies is like writing off all modern music. There was just as much shitty music back in the 70s or 80s as there is now. Just all the really shitty songs have been forgotten with time. Same applies to film.
What you've done is akin to eating a snickers bar and asking why no one cooks good food anymore.

>>83838318
If you're looking for films less over produced, maybe don't gravitate towards the ones with hundreds of millions poured into their budget? It's basic risk assessment; the studios want to feel they've gotten their moneys worth, so the directors have to bend to their specific desires.

That movie was a mess during the production, director wanted it to be entirely about the protagonist, who constantly was shatted on by the world, and you were supposed to root for him, instead it just made the audience hate the world around him, fortunately Disney figured it and the crew asked Pixar for advice, it was a rare case where everything went right despite and thanks to the production problems.

No, it's just tumblr. Ellen said herself she doesn't know and it never actually thought of it. The creators on the hand neither denied it or admitted to it, probably just didn't want to anger the fans and prevent people from boycotting the film. So no, I don't believe it was a lesbian couple.

He's right, it was a clusterfuck up until nearly the end, but I wasn't aware they asked Pixar for advice. But even most of the deleted scenes, for example, involve content relating to the previous concept (notably the shock collars).
>>
>>83834294
On the flip side of that, it's weird how many people mistake Disney's 3D animated films for Pixar films. My friend thought Pixar made Zootopia and Wreck-It Ralph, and he didn't realize Pixar made Cars.

...He's not much of a /co/mrade, to be fair. But /co/mrades aren't really a good litmus anyway.

I think a lot of people just lump things into either "kind of feelsy, has a lot of heart = Pixar" or "crass pop culture bullshit = DreamWorks", since that was the trend for years, even if it's no longer true.

Makes me wonder why they bothered put so much collar related stuff on bluray.This something to be ashamed of, not proud.

The moment it was brought up it should be entirely scrapped, that collar is basically a taser triggered by adrealine: be upset over petty thing -shock, someone run over fox's tail - shock, kid is over excited over birthday gift - shock, fox trying
to defend himself from bloodthirsty panther -shock.try to burst in tears -shock. Almost all of these scenes were going to be in the movie.

This item should never be brought up to the table and eight writers tried to make a movie around it,amazing in a bad away.

I reluctantly look at the future of zootopia's franchise, perhaps this was the reason Disney tries to forget about this movie asap.
>>
>>83845384
So are you saying it's still the trend, then? With things like Brave, Cars, and The Good Dinosaur?

I'm not saying Pixar can't make emotional films any more, nor am I saying DreamWorks can't make shallow stinkers, but these days the automatic "Pixar = quality feels" assumption is unwarranted.

>>83845543

>>
>>83845585

Every drawing in the "art of zootopia" artbook is top notch, it was and is my personal opinion though, feel free to disagree.

I also am pretty sure they could put something better on the disks, perhaps in the future they will, Disney is known for frequent re-releases of their works with some minor bonus content.
>>
>>83845721
I haven't even seen The Good Dinosaur. I'm just going by what people have said.

>>83845782
I'm talking about art books in general. There's lots of shit in broader supplementary material, including bonus disc content (for any cartoon), that got axed for reasons other than time. Early drafts of characters in wildly different forms, terrible story concepts and clashing colour palettes... This is like the meat and potatoes of behind-the-scenes stuff. It's a documentary, not bragging rights.
>>
>>83845721
I don't know. TGD felt really really short. After watching it I thought the film was 45 minutes long when it was actually twice that long. Hardly anything happened in it. At least Cars felt like a solid film.

Considering critical consensus is that all those films are better than Dreamworks current output? Yes. Brave and GD aren't even bad films so I'm not sure why you're stacking them up together.

>but these days the automatic "Pixar = quality feels" assumption is unwarranted.

No that's just you being a contrarian. Quite ironic that when it comes to Zootopia another Disney flick the RT score matters but when Finding Dory gets universal praise the critics are getting paid off. /co/ was just so ready to shit on this film before it was released and to see it once again blow up in their faces is a site to behold.

KFP and HTTYD are their only great films. They have a couple of good/okay ones like the first two Shrek, Puss in Boots, The Croods, Megamind, RotG and maybe a few others but the rest are shit, only made to make extra money inbetween stuff like KFP and HTTYD.

There is a continuum between bad and good, anon. It isn't all one or the other, and just because something isn't a bad movie doesn't make it some kind of slam dunk. It could just be middle-of-the-road mush. Stop trying to make this into a company wars thing when that was never the intent. I was only speculating on why people assume that films like Wreck-It Ralph and Big Hero 6 are from Pixar: first impressions are everything.

For the record, I'm not particularly upset if Finding Dory is well received. I want to see good movies, and if Finding Dory is a good movie, that's great.

I was wary of Dory because Pixar sequels haven't had a good track record considering the last bunch so I was quite sure this was just another cash-in and I doubt I'm alone. If the movie is good, that's great.

Also, people in general are predisposed to disliking the idea of Pixar sequels in general besides Toy Story because they used to say they would never do them. Compare that to Zootopia which is a new Disney IP and came out in the wake of Frozen, despite being much better than Frozen, obviously it would get more people wanting it to succeed

Jesus Christ, this only applies to Cars 2 and Cars wasn't a good movie to begin with. Monsters University was good just wasn't really necessary much like Toy Story 3 and the upcoming 4. Nobody wouldn't shut up about wanting an Incredibles 2 for the longest of time either.

I'm this anon >>83846638

While I do want Zootopia to win, I agree that the attention and awards that Disney/Pixar films get is obnoxious as all hell.

It's a shame too since this is the year Disney would be at least a somewhat deserving winner, while they should have lost in 2013 and 2014 and Pixar should have lost in 2012.

So unfortunately with three Disney-produced films in the mix Kubo unfortunately has no chance. It'll get lucky to get nominated regardless of how good it actually is.

Case in point: Big Hero 6 beat Lego Movie (not nominated), How to Train Your Dragon 2, Song of the Sea, and the fucking Tale of the fucking Princess Kaguya.

If Kaguya and SoTS can't win over animated capeshit despite being arguably two of the best animated films of the decade, what chance does Kubo have?

It's one thing to say many of their movies are good, which they are, but the way people salivate over them is annoying -- especially when there are other animated films out there that run circles around them and never get half of the attention they do.

Finding Dory seems like it's pretty good. It sounds like it's not quite as good as the first but still hilarious and heartwarming nonetheless. I don't know why /co/ is pissed at Disney and Pixar, since them and Laika seem to be the only ones giving us good theatrical shit nowadays. I get you it that you hate the circlejerk but come on. We're finally getting a decent animated movie in the US since Zootopia and everyone's complaining.

Because it's a Pixar film that stars everyone's favorite lesbian Ellen Degeneres.

Plus the majority of these critics probably grew up with the characters, so it is hard for them to give a negative review to something with Dory's face on it.

Wreck-It-Ralph? How can any movie with a Rihanna segment beat Pixar's best? Laughable.

>>83847692
When in a Pixar film is it not obvious?
>>
>>83847694
This.
Pixar can make a sequel that rehashes a fuckton of elements from a previous entry in the canon, but thanks to a few emotionally manipulative scenes and the Pixar brandname critics are able to overlook it and call it a masterpiece.

Also, daily reminder that Toy Story 4 is real and happening -- and all of the closure you felt with the third film is about to go bye-bye in the name of money.

>>83847747
Early on they had a better balance. Brad Bird's films don't tend to hinge on emotional manipulation and are probably the least pretentious of the bunch.

The worst offenders are Toy Story 3 and the films directed by Pete Docter.

That movie never stood a chance. Animated Feature award is always won by a children's movie because judges rarely watch all the nominations and usually go for the popular choice or the one their kids liked the most, and that means Disney.

I dunno, felt really flat and boring.

How the fuck do people still not realize how RT works yet? 95% doesn't mean that the movie is 95 out of 100, it means that 95% of critics gave it a score higher than 6/10. If you want to gauge a movie from RT check out that tiny number underneath the big one called AVERAGE RATING.

>>83846947
Mad Max wasn't that great either, but it still was probably the best last year. Ex Machina deserved a couple of those Oscars, I think.

>>83847038
The score was fine, JJ Abrams just didn't believe in it enough to put it in the memorable scenes and chose to put the well known themes everywhere instead.

Must be a TV thing, because the Russos did the same thing, where they put the music too low for it to be part of the movie foreground, and it ends up seeming forgetable because you can't hear it over the metal clanks.
