LAIKA YOU GORGEOUS BASTARDS

It is like a smash up of random anime, Corpse Bride and Æon Flux.

That's Laika's shtick though, they're a stop motion house.

Nice thumbnail you got there.

I'm aware. I grew up with one of the team's animators. Personally, I think they've gone downhill.
>>63541537
Really? I think their animation's just been getting better and better. This shit looked like pure CGI.
I still think they'd be fucking awesome at a Psychonauts adaptation. Something about that game's art makes me think stop-motion would be perfect for it. Directed by Henry Selick.

I'm talking about the style. The style has been getting worse. Not the movement or quality of workmanship. Just the style.

Doesn't seem special to me. 3DCG isn't very interesting in general.
>>63541871
It isn't CGI, it is stop animation like in >>63541819

I guess I can understand. Paranorman and Coraline were masterpieces, but Boxtrolls felt like a step down. Like they were trying to do a dark kids movie but they still made it lighthearted and funny. In the end it felt like they were aping Burton.

I'm with you 10,000% on that, I never finished Boxtrolls.
>>63541871
>not knowing Laika
Fuck outta here.
>>63541915
Well then I guess it's technically impressive, but... well, it still looks dull.
>>63541944
Never heard of them before.
it might be good. but to be honest boxtrolls was pretty poor outside of the animation, plus there were scenes that were obviously cg.
i don't think laika has a firm grasp of storytelling the way other animation studios have. even dreamworks does stories better
>>63541939
I'll give it this, though: it basically supports the case for a Psychonauts movie that I made up here:>>63541719
>>63541959
They're like the best (only?) folks in the stop-motion game right now.
>>63542004
aardman are still great

Oh yeah, forgot about them.
Also, Wes Anderson for Fantastic Mr. Fox, I guess.
>>63542059
wes is planning to do another stop motion film

when will it end? Twilight was 10 years ago.
>>63542134
Anime has been doing it for 30+ years. Western animation is only just catching up in the past 10 years to be just as pervasive.
>>63542134
And Alien was 36 years ago.

They're not the same thing, because Japan doesn't have feminist identity politics shit.

>that sword
Literally how the fuck could that possibly be useful or intimidating to anyone?
>>63542525
I'll show you.
*teleports behind you*
>>63542648
Kek
But really, the only thing I could see it being useful for is if you wanted to get REALLY stylistic with a shot and added that to make it seem sort of anime-esque. You know, like when a character's bringing down a sword and it looks like it's sort of blurring?
>>63540444
KUBOOOOOO!!!
