Paid Members DJ Kris Posted May 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 18, 2011 I like animation, but I don't like the look of the animation for that. It's not so much that I don't like it, more that it just doesn't appeal to me anymore. I loved all 4 Shrek films but it took me ages to get round to watching them and the only reason I did in the end was because I knew I was going to see the 4th at the cinema. It's silly really, but I'm hesitant to say I've grown out of animation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted May 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 18, 2011 For me it's a case of if something is animated, then it should look animated. Why animate a film to look as realistic as possible, when you can just use real people?. Pixar, Studio Ghibli, and stuff like that are all beautifully animated and look like animation. Stuff like Polar Express, Tin Tin and A Christmas Carol, why bother? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GalaxyV.2 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Because you get an actors performance plus being able to make something look like anything. Â Anyway, they've not yet finished perfecting the animation on TinTin, I can't wait for that film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted May 18, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 18, 2011 You can make something look like anything with things like CGI though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopper Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Went to the cinema to see 'The Hangover 2' yesterday and was pleased to see a short teaser trailer for The Inbetweeners movie. Â Either it's not on Youtube or it's very well hidden. Has anybody got a link to watch it online? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly because they'll probably realise later that a lot of animated movies appeal to adults as much as they do children. Its a bit like fairytales really. Everyoen think they're for kids until they grow up and read them again and realise how much of the material changes when you're an adult. I think maybe people can become disillusioned with animation because at times there's so much of it but anyone who says they've grown out of it is silly. You grow out of children's clothes, animation is soemthing that appeals to a spectrum of ages, its not something people grow out of. Â Â You can make something look like anything with things like CGI though. Â They'd still look like real people though. Who wants a real TinTin? If I'm honest I've had completely the opposite reaction of everyone on here. When I first heard about TinTin I was excited, when I heard it was going to be real life actors I was considerably less so, I'm now quite relieved its got the animated style. I'll continue using them as a reference but the (I think it was) two Asterix movies they made which were live action didn't really appeal to me at all. I hated them. It just didn't look right. To me TinTin, in terms of visual style, looked quite realistic. Herge is well known for reaching a stage in his career when eh started to heavily study the settings and themes of his narratives. But still, no matter how realistic it got in certain areas, it was still a comic book adventure. It works because its set in that world. I can't help think that a real life version would look odd, and not in a good way. I remember seeing clips of the TinTin play they had on in London and it just didn't work for me. Obviously its just me who feels that so strongly, and I am basing it purely on having seen those Asterix films (I'm starting to think there may have actually just been one, I should really look it up) but I am genuinely quite surprised people wanted to see a live action TinTin. Â Although Spielberg directing slightly puts me off. I thought he was just producing. Meh, its what Herge wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Dead Mike Posted May 31, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 31, 2011 I'd say Spielberg directing an adventure film for the whole family is a pretty sweet fit? Who would you have preferred? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members chokeout Posted May 31, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 31, 2011 (edited) There's been at least 3 live action Asterix films, all shit  I can't think of anyone better than Speilberg to make the film motion capture or not. The guy invented the summer blockbuster and knows how to make a family film.  Edited for shitty spelling Edited May 31, 2011 by chokeout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
