Looks comfy. Only dissapointment is how generic the bad giants look. The animated ones in the old movie scared the shit out of me.

I've never read the book. Anyone TL;DR me the story?

CGI looks amazing in some shits, like shit in others. Why does the giant run so "floaty"?

Still, it's Spielberg. Mite b good.
>>
>>67897709
I've only seen the older movie but he's about to "fly" to his land or whatever running like that
>>
>>67897559
looks realer than real

Is it weird that I had literally never heard of The BFG until they started advertising this movie?

I looked it up recently and it doesn't seem like it only existed outside of my country. I just somehow managed to not be exposed to it in any way. It's not even like I had heard of the book or the cartoon and just never read or saw it. It's like as far as I knew it didn't even exist until Disney announced the movie.

I know nobody gives a shit, but I just find this baffling. I've heard of literally everything that gets remakes, reboots, etc. these days. Even if it's not something I ever watched or read as a kid, I still remember it existing. I literally don't even remember the BFG existing.

Young orphan girl is 'kidnapped' by a giant, but he's the one good giant from a world of evil child eating giants.

He travels to earth to give kids nice dreams.

That's pretty much the top and bottom of it. There's a comfy as fuck cartoon from the 90s, check it out.

>>67897794
as a britbong I saw it at school at a young age

if I hadn't I probably wouldn't have known about it either

I prefer the BGFU

Story:
Big, friendly gigant who give children cool dreams while other gigants eats children. He's a vegetarian.

I loved the book when I was a kid (oldfag).

Are there any female giants?
>>
>>67897559
Mark Rylance is dat nigga
>>
He looks too human, his face looks pasted on. Also the face is too young and almost pretty.

Also the evil giants just look like fat blokes in armour. The cartoon versions were fucking terrifying.

Looking forward to it, but they've gone far too soft on it.
>>
>>67897887
that escalated quickly. and no, they don't show feet.

BFG x Attack on Titan crossover when?

Anyone interested really should download the cartoon from the 80s. Animation's a bit dated but there's some great voice acting. Character designs are great too.

Was the first one good?

Reminder that Steven Spielberg is a pedophile.

I'm not the guy you were asking but I thought it was pretty mediocre, especially considering the names attached to it.

Roald Dahl was as popular in the late 80's and early 90's as Harry Potter became a decade or two later.
>>
>>67898573
I grew up with some of Roald Dahl's books. I think everyone did. Somehow, I just never heard of BFG though.
>>
I'm a bit disappointed.
>>
>disney's the BFG
What did they mean by this?
>>
Looks a bit generic (it's Disney after all) but still cute
>>
>>67898686
not as generic as Jungle Book
>>
Too bad it's dead on arrival because of those hideous rubbery CGI characters that always look out of place and creepy as fuck.

I know all filmmakers want so badly to believe that we're technologically at a place where we can use special effects to create "real life dreams" or "bring imagination to life" or whatever but we're just not. Uncanny valley you fuckwits.
>>
thats a big fucking giant

no depth of field or masking of the green screen lmao

Nigga he always looked human. In fact they've recreated his original look pretty well

>yfw the BFG calls people "human beans"

Here's a quote from the book:
"You is trying to change the subject," the Giant said sternly. "We is having an interesting babblement about the taste of the human bean. The human bean is not a vegetable.”
