>>149231562My mother kept all of us boys' Seuss books, long after they were worn out. She was odd that way.
I'm not even a big CITH fan, but part of what made the original book so cool was how you didn't know shit about the cat. There was no backstory or world tied to him, He was just some random creature that let sad kids have some fun, while also learning when too much fun was too much. That's it. Putting him in a imaginary creature world where he's trying to prove himself or some gay shit like that doesn't work for this character at all. They turned him from mischievous yet kind hearted entity into flint lockwood

>>149230667 (OP)It feels like they turned Cat in the Hat into a Monsters Inc/Inside Out hybrid. Why the fuck does he have to work for an organization of imagination and go on "missions" instead of just being a whimsical creature who comes out of nowhere to help you because he just knew? It really just can't be something like that anymore huh?
>>149237807I hate that I know that reference
>>149235651or they'll throw some shitty Marvel reference to Fantastic Four's The Thing in a direct reference to the recent movie and have Thing 2 be some type of Kratos God of War lookin' ass
>>149238063>Fantastic Four
>>149230667 (OP)my question is why Bill Hader? They could've cast someone else to voice the Cat. That would be like if someone got Christian Bale to voice the Cat. Actually on second thought, that doesn't sound too bad of an idea

>>149231465even when something's shit, people will remember it being hilariously, awfully shit which the movie was. nobody will remember anything that's safe and sanitized. there's a reason why people automatically remember Jim Carrey's Grinch instead of Illumination's when people talk about "that Grinch Movie"
>>149231180Uhm, why are the kids white? Thats problematic.
>>149231330Its sort of a simple indication towards the quality of the movie.
>>149238780>Is that why fanfiction i just made up
>>149237303I don't hate the artstyle here but Dr. Seuss really had a unique style to his work that i dont see like any of the cgi adaptations really get down.
Best way i can describe it is a sort of charming ugliness, characters have wrinkles on their faces, the hatching on most surfaces makes everything look scratchy, theres a certain way cloths are drawn that makes everything look like a sock that just doesn't fit right.
ealizing this im kinda bummed that this doesn't even feel like it takes those things into account or builds upon them in any specific way. Characters just kinda look like they came from a DreamWorks movie and don't really feel like Dr Seuss to me (The eyes really give it off).
Honestly, the makeup for the Jim Carrey Grinch movie might be the closest we got to the vibe of Dr Seuss's art
>>149232708Chinese people aren't real.
>>149240196and DESU this tracks with a lot of modern animation, there seems to be this trend of a lot of modern animation having a clean, cute and soft-on-the-eyes aesthetic, on top of trying to emulate the look of 2D with cel shading and rendering and whatnot, and thats fine for most stuff, but you rarely see mainstream examples of the opposite aesthetic.
its crazy because during that initial boom in the 2000s of family animated features you saw a lot more variation in aesthetic and how things were rendered and i daresay the limitations and lack of a "standard" gave every movie a unique feel.
Now things feel like they've all consolidated, same warm, soft lighting, same dense "realistic" detail, same floundering attempts to build on an original style, if there is any. its the standard now, as if the previous variety was just failed experiments in search of it.
Even the character designs fall victim to this, you'll notice how with each movie in the HTTYD franchise, Toothless's eyes got bigger and cuter, and how in the original Despicable Me, not only was the lighting much harsher and sharper (compare Counter Strike Source to CS2 for another example of this), but both Gru and his minions had more angular, slightly jagged teeth, with deeper shadows between each tooth, giving it a slightly creepy vibe, whereas in every subsequent movie, the minions teeth got rounded off like a beanmouth cartoon network character
>>149230667 (OP)Oh no he's a Tumblr sexyman now.

>>149240519If only that were true...
>>149240236You are completely correct. We are currently in a bad time for animation and entertainment in general. Usually things swing back every few decades or so but I'm concerned because people are getting more and more retarded.

>>149230781this movie was and still is an unironic schizophrenic kino
>>149230781Why?
Mike Myers was forced to be in this movie and fucking hated it
>>149234596No but itโs ironically more enjoyable then the shitty animated one with Demi Lovato and the upcoming Rihanna/Influencer Smurf one.
>>149235143No one gave a shit about it, they gentrified Grinch into a mildly annoyed dude instead of the despicable disgusting grouch he was in the original cartoon.
Its only impact was tricking a generation of gamers into believing Geno or Shadow were getting into Smash Ultimate.
>>149230667 (OP)I try to be positive about this things but this legitimately looks like ass.
The pepper spray bit is what did it for me.
>>149243461I totally forgot that was a thing back then
>>149243364Mike Myers may have hated the final product overall, but the movie itself was ironically better than any of the animated movies that came out afterwards
>>149230667 (OP)they should've used "I Cum Blood" by Cannibal Corpse as the trailer's music
>>149233260they also did Looney Tunes Back in Action, and that was kino
>>149230667 (OP)Why does this remind me of the Emoji movie with Dr.Suess characters?
>>149231330>why does this trailer look like shit?>Sees mark of the beast.>OOOHHHH that's why!
I was really hoping they would make it look 1:1 like the books.I think it could have been cool had they just taken the Dr Seuss art style and turned it into fancy 3D CGI graphics like in that cartoon spiderman movie.
But it looks cute. Looks like a movie I would let my kids watch.

THEY DON'T CARE. It's something they can take kids to so they will shut up for a while.
Also coming out in February is NOT a good sign, that's usually when studios drop stuff even they think is crap.

The artstyle is inconsistent and the jokes already are millennial shit.
I'm not gonna watch, sorry I have standards.
Honest critique. Having the movie done from the Cat's point of veiw will not work. Saney characters must be viewed from the outside.
Think the Pirates of the Caribbean movies after 3, where you started seeing things from Jack's pov. And the movies instantly got worse.
>>149239581What are you talking about? His 2nd wife died back in 2018. If she were still alive today, she'd be 103.
>>149242795I apologize for not sticking with it to the second season, I fully enjoyed the first one, but forgot that it got renewed.
It's just weird seeing the cat being so obnoxiously childish.
>>149245226>Also coming out in February is NOT a good sign, that's usually when studios drop stuff even they think is crap.Not exactly. Some movies in February have done incredible in recent memory, such as Deadpool and Sonic

>>149230667 (OP)Dr. Seuss is whipping and nae-nae'ing in his grave right about now
>>149249072Anon it's just profits at the end of the day. At least Illuminations Suess films at least kept the look 70 percent of the time. This just feels like they got a bunch of artists fresh from a college to animate on it.
I just won't watch it, and I'm not gonna waste time getting mad over it and waste headspace.
>Warner Bros
Have they always had Seus licenses?
>>149249354no, they just got it as far as I know. Horton was done by Blue Sky, while Lorax and Grinch were done by Illumination. This is their first go at it iirc
>>149235029They're siblings
>>149231330Because it's the modern telltale sign that hr executives smeared their shit covered hands across the project.

>>149230667 (OP)>raceswapsNo thanks
>>149240196>>149240236These people are so afraid of fucking TEXTURE!!! Everything's got to be shiney and smooth for them to animate it despite the fact that CG animation should be able to handle textures.

2D > 3D > 3DPD
>>149237939>>149237955>>149239581Looking into that shit really tainted my view of the man. Fuck all that
>Ugh he had some racially insensitive portrayals of ethnic people in his books shit, that's all cultural baggage he didn't really have much choice in. If you're gonna judge a man, do so by his personal relationships,a nd it looks like Seuss' relationship with his first wife was definitely something ugly. Her suicide note sure has some nasty implications
> Dear Ted, What has happened to us? I don't know. I feel myself in a spiral, going down down down, into a black hole from which there is no escape, no brightness. And loud in my ears from every side I hear, "failure, failure, failure..." I love you so much ... I am too old and enmeshed in everything you do and are, that I cannot conceive of life without you ... My going will leave quite a rumor but you can say I was overworked and overwrought. Your reputation with your friends and fans will not be harmed ... Sometimes, think of the fun we had all thru the years ...I will always choose to separate the art from the artist, and you can never take away Seuess' talent and success, but it sure seems like he had more than his fair share of demons.
>>149240191List off a few then fag boy, I'll wait
>>149240236You're forgetting another important factor: the limited technology at the time forced artists & animators to find other ways of achieving those effects. That's the reason why the older version of Shrek looks better than the newer Shrek.
>>149252128This is on par with Mike Myers film, as in they're both trash starring SNL members
>>149234680A good story can save bad animation.

>>149230832>Animated special = timeless classicI'd say the animated adaptations for Grinch and Cat in the Hat under the direction of Chuck Jones were too cute and cheerful.
Cat in the Hat 70s adaptation was too educational.
Jim Carrey one will always unironically be the better one, I don't get the hate for that one.
The animated Lorax and Horton specials from the 70s also were more faithful.
Illuminations Lorax I'm starting to think is an ironic classic, and Hortons was the best and faithful one.
>>149231029>minionfiedThe minions were already things even before they were introduced.
>>149231257Sad too since this was supervised by the same guy that would eventually migrate to Illumination.
>>1492427952nd season didn't need the whole agent thing, it felt so forced and yet his dad not being the other agent really was a wasted opportunity to make something funny about it like the mom is mad at him because she can't resist to feel something for him and that's what led her to get pregnant
>>149254096It's kinda shit but I can't help but enjoy it, it's comfy
>>149260113I feel like Chuck jones in general got a little too cutsey later on, which isn't bad in itself (I love cute shit) but it doesn't exactly fit with the Grinch, or at least the off beat weird vibe in the book isn't exactly captured. Still very nice watches. The Jim Carrey one just feels like a completely different thing, but I still really like it.

>>149261817Nah, I'm good. I don't like interpretations of 8/16-bit sprites from indie games. The devs should have done the heavy lifting and hired artists for the games to give us a better idea of what the characters looks like, not the fans.
>>149261905but thats the fun part, you can make a character thicker than a bowl of oatmeal or flat as a board and nobody can say it isn't canon

>>149263182I think Jack Black is entertaining, but I really can't think of him as someone who stars in good movies. I guess Nacho Libre is pretty enjoyable?
I liked the Minecraft movie as a stupid corporate shitheap, but that's the irony-rotted apathetic part of my brain that enjoys it. Mike Myers Cat in the Hat is far and away my favorite corporate shitheap movie though. It can't be surpassed.
