It's crazy to think that Inside Out is the last decent movie Pixar has made and even that would have been in the bottom tier with Up during Pixar's golden age.

So is he actually missing an eye or just trying to be a space pirate or something?

>>211859035
They re-shot / made another movie. Why do you think it cost 300 million to produce in the end? My guess is test audiences hated the first version and so they quietly changed a lot and made a different movie.

money is irrelevant, subversion is all that matters

I predict CGI movies are going to decline because of AI. Everyone can make Pixar looking shit with AI.

>>211860501
Beaner with a lazy eye. Standard Yidsney DEI garbage.

Nta. How do they not focus test the storyboards? There's got to be cheaper and earlier ways to find out your product is actually shit.

>>211862231

It's just a fundamental flaw with the process.
In order to produce something of any kind of artistic quality and merit you need a strong vision, usually by one person that whips everyone else into shape and can conceptualize what the whole thing NEEDS to be.

How it works lately though is studios us marketing teams to gauge what the audience is into. These marketing teams check out social media metrics to come up with popular trends. They're always behind the curve and acting on shit intel (since people online that are more vocal about stuff usually don't spend money) so it's a flawed system from the get-go. But these metrics then make the entire workflow keep getting checked against it, by tiers of committees and so on. Basically if you want to step up and get stuff done you're immediately checked by increasing steps in approval, and usually by no one person in particular, but by established circles of execs and their assistants and staff that are all brownnosers and don't want to say anything out of line.
Effectively taking charge of any part of the process is kind of like going against the cult. You're just supposed to do what the cult does and follow directives from above and not stick your neck out or speak up. So in the end the product looks 100% "safe" and bland and "normalized" into derivative slop.

Sure, you can make things that look like that in short burst, but AI still has a huge issue with consistency and it's very grating watching a 2 hour long movie where minor parts of a character or setting keeps constantly changing subtly.

>>211858376 (OP)
I think at this point they have made soo many shit movies in a row, even IF they accidentally made a good one, nobody is watching it. (they couldn’t make a good movie even accidentally, this was just a hypothetical)

>>211858884
it also seems a lot like ownward and strange world

>>211866562
(wait, and lightyear. lmao)

>>211858376 (OP)
Why didn't they just give the little shit a cool eye patch? It would have helped at least a little.

You know what's funny is the movies that kids love show adults. But some way down the road there's this classic error that creeps in where someone starts to think movies for kids need to have kids in them. And then like billions of dollars go down the drain.

>>211866684
yeah for some reason they really wanted to make people look at a gross bandaid medical paraphenalia bit of medical waste. You should want to jump in to an animated movies image and touch everything. Not subconsciously be a little worried about what's on the other side of that ew what if that falls on me

>>211866816
kids love 'family movies' also, i.e films that the whole family enjoys, from grandparents, parents, older siblings, etc. but those films are hardly made anymore.

Disney did multiple test screenings of ELIO. It's strange they had no success. After all, if you lock down the angry castration lesbian audience, you're guaranteed a hot $2 million in profits. Just like the psychotic pedo tranny audiences are a hot $13000 profit return on any project.

Here's footage from the test screening for ELIO.

>Sure, you can make things that look like that in short burst, but AI still has a huge issue with consistency and it's very grating watching a 2 hour long movie where minor parts of a character or setting keeps constantly changing subtly.

OBVIOUS SOLUTION.
Reference views of the characters like a 360 degree headshot.

Add in small continuity fixers (make certain stripes or patterns on surfaces are consistent between frames), if you've got something in particular that must be consistent (like Hellboy's glove or Superman's logo or a specific car design; break object into 3D pseudo models that have 360 degree rotation balls).

That way you can retain consistent items, people, jointed objects and so on. Ideally you'd subdivide objects into node chunks. A rhino would be torso, head, legs. Each chunk would be subdivided into smaller ID objects. Head would be divided into horns, eyes, ears, mouth. Mouth would be subdivided into teeth, tongue, throat. Ever seen a diagram of a disassembled car engine? Something like that with node lines connecting assembly points.

Now if you go into hyper-realism, you've got skeleton, organs, muscles, veins, skin, hair, and all that, but for basic 3D pseudo models, the DEM BONES connector system acts as a sanity checklist when rendering off 3D objects.

Good.

>>211869782
how? it'll be like studying esoteric old rites and seeking out dead or dying animators, it's an almost impossible task for them.

2D animation is literally a lost knowledge in the west.

>>211869782
Frozen was Disney animation. Not pixar.

>>211859335
I know we all know and register that this is what happened, but it's funny to think how this trend started in the corporately sterile world. I wonder if they will ever catch onto to it and try and stop it or just death spiral out of existence

>>211871545
Death spiral. As a studio it sucks that they lost $300m, but for the people who got paid with that $300m it's free money and most of them wouldn't have gotten anything extra even if it made $4b

>>211866874
This, idk why they can't get one semi normal marketing guy in for the design phase so he can just walk in and go "ew gross what is that shit on this nerd's face? Either make it less gross or remove it entirely wtf" and avoid this altogether. There is a massive blackhole in the entire industry rn for guys who should be able to just glance at something and say no to it because it looks like shit up front. Stuff like that would save these companies so much money by not putting out crap that turns off normal people

>>211858376 (OP)
Why is everyone so fixated on box office figures? What really matters is how much merch is moved.

A fag brown kid with a fucked up eye is not a design that you want in your backpack.

>>211871701
As a kid who wore one of these for 2 years, I 1000% agree. The marketing material just reminds me of memories of getting asked by fellow 7 year olds 10x a day why my face looked funny.

Pixar = Lasseter, simple as

Pixar totally diluted their brand by releasing a generic calarts sloppa movie every 6 months and I guess now people don't care about them as much

>>211858884

anyway the issue with these movies is simply how fucking ugly this artstyle is, turning red at least appealed to furries and pedophiles

>>211866816
True. My favorite show as a kid was DBZ, which is about a married man with a son

>>211871701
>There is a massive blackhole in the entire industry rn for guys who should be able to just glance at something and say no to it because it looks like shit up front.

anyone with that level of awareness would also realize the industry is dead and nothing can change that so questioning anything would be risking their do-nothing job.

>>211873223
Luca and Soul were generally well received but much more lukewarm than the typical Pixar movie from the Toy Story to Wall-E era.

It's amazing how a Pixar release used to be an event to look forward to and now they're barely noticed.

>>211871395
It's also important to know that beginning around the production of Tangled, Disney Animation started poaching all the real talent from Pixar. This is why Pixar is filmed with the young CalArts types, and Disney Animation had an extremely successful run before covid. Then covid happened, and at the same time, a lot of the Pixar turned Disney Animation staff started to retire/quit, so now the old gaurd of 3d animation is pretty much gone.

>>211870935

Kids perspective doesn't mean they exist in a vacuum. These special snowflakes have no sense of community other than the agitprop kind. Anime always have community of family, schools, friends etc.

The movie would make 20% more if you remove the eye patch.

People only want familiar franchises. New movies are scary and bad.

>>211874609
Sequels and remakes have been a thing for eternity, they only took a short pause for some decades where Spielberg and his friends ruled supreme (and even they did big blockbuster sequels).

Elio is just a shit movie. No boy wants to be a one-eyed beaner. The aliens are written by amateurs. What is the movie even about? It all feels so forced.

>>211860501
>>211862087
and they didn't even have decency of giving him a pirate eye-patch, which kids actually think it's funny/cool and instead gave him that eye-patch that only makes kids wonder what's going on with his design

Pretty sure Disney is filled with corrupt producers who don't allow cheap movies. They all there to either milk a fat salary or want a 300 million movie under their belt. Disney is completely corrupt and helpless.

>>211874845
there is a great young adult novel by Rober Heinlein called, "have spacesuit, will travel" which this movie seems to be ripping off, a young man and a girl has to represent Earth in a galactic council and determine it's fate.

they should have just adapted it (or ripped it off) even harder than to just make something lukewarm and bland,

>>211859279
>>211875788
Have you guys ever seen "The Producers"?
I'm convinced that Disney is getting tax breaks every time one of their films flops and they're genuinely trying to make them as awful as possible on purpose because they make far more money that way.

Elio would have done alright if it were a young white man and a white girl with maybe a cute dog.

HTTYD succeededetely by virtue of not deliberately shitting on the source material. That’s how low the bar is for sequels and remakes. That’s what Elio had to beat.

I want you to sit for a minute and think about what an absurd amount of money $100 million is. I know you're used to seeing absurdly inflated film budgets so you just gloss over these stupid numbers but there's absolutely no reason for shit to cost that much.

>>211866684
It’s also retarded because any little boy that HAD to wear an eyepatch for medical reasons would of course opt for one that looks like a fucking pirate. It’s like they want to make movies about 10 year old boys but don’t actually know anything about them

>>211869782
there is quite literally nobody to take up the mantle of 2D animation. They stopped teaching the medium in art schools nearly 2 decades ago and Disney sold off all of its 2D animation equipment in like 2011.

Hollywood is too unionized to make 10 30 million dollar movies instead of 1 300 million dollar movie. The amount you would be paying in labor costs would be proportionally absurd and destroy any profit. The need to insure all aspects of production has a similar effect. Hollywood is a corpse walking.

I'm no accountant, but let's say I spend $100 million on making a movie and marketing it, and the movie doesn't do that well. Doesn't flop entirely, it was just kind of a shitty-ish mediocre movie, and it makes like $101 million. I profit $1 million, and I still have to pay taxes on that money at the end of the fiscal year.

Now let's say I set out to make the worst movie I can conceivably make. I spend $100 million on it, and it only makes $50 million. Now I can write off the remaining $50 million on my taxes as a "business loss". I don't necessarily profit on that particular movie, but I SAVE $50 million for the entire corporation when it's time to pay the government. That's $50 million I was going to have to pay before, and am not going to pay them now. In the first scenario, the studio I work for was paying the feds that $50 million, and we were actually losing money by making a movie that wasn't total dogshit.

Anyone please jump in to correct me if I'm totally wrong, but unless you have a guaranteed massive hit on your hands that breaks like a billion, it's not even worth trying to make a film at a major studio because a company that large would lose in the long run, even if that particular project broke even.

Losses are only useful when you're making money elsewhere and you can offset some taxes from it. You don't get reimbursed that 50 mil but that business loss gets applied to your profits from other ventures. It's not good to lose that much money, ever. It would be better to get that 1 mil profit since your costs are paid for with about 700k in profit after taxes. The idea here is that you and to go into the hole to make the movie (either by digging into your own coffers or taking out loans) and now you have pay it back (either to yourself or the bank). So, no, losing 50 mil is not good in any sense.

When I heard the asian accent on the fire people in Elemental, I completely predicted the story except for the bureaucracy sub-plot and the damn. I even started saying "w*ter people can't eat spicy foods."

My niece and nephew love TMNT shit and my sister or her husband didn't foist it on them. They just fuckin' love that stuff regardless.

Sometimes these things just stick around because kids like it naturally, bro.

>>211881504
I mean, you can try. Lord knows both myself and my brother-in-law have pointed his son towards things we'd think he'd like but ultimately a kid will like what he likes regardless.

I mean, we've been rather successful in our opinion because we both think we're paragons of culture (probably why we've always gotten along so well) so naturally the stuff we think is cool turns out to actually be cool and any sane person would like it.

Did they seriously do the same anti-white shit with literal elemental spirits?

Yes, but it at least perpetuated WMAF superiority.

It’s not retarded those words are referring to more than one person, “discard their hand” would make more grammatical sense here either way. The way the left and trannies use “they” completely reinvented the meaning and context of the word because they’re deranged, perverted child predator cultists.

You jest but I think they're planning a new pandemic for 2028, too many big movies slated for 2027, we haven't had a year that packed since 2019, new consoles are also meant to launch that year and 2028 is another election year, give it a year or so of restrictions and we're already in the 2030 you'll own nothing hellscape, 2027 is feeling like a big sendoff to cinema looking at the slate.

Kinda but it was actually the directors therapy session where his korean family didnt want him marrying is tall sexy italian wife. Now that i think about its weird we got two personal therapy session movies right next to each other (elemental and turning red)

Frankly I'm over hearing about second generation asians bitch about their parents. It's played out and was never interesting to begin with. It's almost literally ALL they talk about.

>Cal arts cartoon about the ugly mystery meat boy, the villain is generational trauma
Oh no, I'm so sad that it failed etc etc

>>211882807
Ngl i get the feeling awful first generation asians being awful parents is somehow white peoples fault, somehow

>>211882703
Ingmar Bergamans movies were also his therapy session and just him dumping his family drama unto the silver screen, except he was nobility from a noble house so all his movies were highly aesthetic

all these people are riff-raff and can only make ugly movies out of their therapy sessions

I meant like anyone can now make CGI shit with AI. Pixar benefited from CGI cartoons being a new thing. The novelty. Now, there is nothing special about seeing a CGI cartoon. It’s reached maximum saturation. Disney is already thinking about going back to 2D animation. I think that’s going to be the trend. Cartoons that have a distinct, non CGI AI look

There’s always been a market for toys, but lately it’s started to feel like the industry is spinning its wheels. Every time a new Marvel or Star Wars property hits theaters or D+, Hasbro ramps up production like it's the second coming of Endgame or The Empire Strikes Back. The problem is, most of these projects flop or at least underperform. When that happens, shelves end up overflowing with unwanted figures. Think Wen Wu from Shang-Chi, or the Shuri Copter Black Panther 2, or the nigger from Obi Wan.
These toys don’t sell. They eventually get shuffled off to discount chains like Ollie’s, where they collect dust for $4.99 apiece. It’s a vicious cycle of overproduction and overestimation. And yet, amid all this, something interesting has happened: the resurgence of 90s toys.
Instead of pumping out merchandise for the latest forgettable franchise, some companies have gone back to their roots. You can now walk into a store and find figures that look like they came straight out of 1996. Classic Power Rangers, retro Spider Man, even reissues of old LEGO sets and obscure lines that haven’t been relevant in decades are showing up. And they’re actually selling, because the market for toys today isn’t really kids anymore. It’s adults.
Collectors in their late 20s, 30s, and 40s, people who grew up in the 90s and early 2000s, are the ones buying. That’s why Big Bad Toy Store's front page is full of Batman Returns, GI Joe, Transformers, and TMNT instead of toys from the latest streaming series. Nostalgia is king, and toy companies are finally starting to cater directly to that.
Meanwhile, actual kids aren’t playing with action figures much anymore. They want digital goods like Fortnite skins or maybe FNAF figures, even FNAF ripoffs like Garden of BanBan if they still want physical toys. The age of toy aisles being made for kids might be over. Now it's about feeding the nostalgia of grown ups who want to own a piece of their childhood.

>>211893180
>market for toys isn't really kids anymore. It's adults
This is only partially true. Most kids don't want action figures anymore; they have video games to make believe with. You're right on the money with that. But they are still kids; their underdeveloped brains still fall victim to the bright colors and recognizable characters of their favorite movie or whatever TV show their parents use as a surrogate for love and affection. They will inevitably see it while being pushed around in a shopping cart at walmart and start incessantly begging for their parents to buy it. That's why big chain stores still put out huge flashy displays to catch their eyes, and it's the reason why the toy eye is usually right across from the area where they sell blankets, towels, lamps, and cheap shelf fillers.

Elio has no marketing tagline, no easily relatable high-concept story hook, no instantly eyegrabbing characters, an insipid artstyle, and this weird grotesque slug maggot sidekick
Do they expect Kids will eat the bugs after this?
With previous Pixar films like Coco, the Incredibles, Toy Story etc. kids pretty much knew what they were in for from the get-go, from the moment they saw the poster.
Kids won't know what to think with this. So it falls upon their parents. Should they grin and bear this piece of unbelievable shit, or should they go watch the How to Train Your Dragon Remake, the latter of which actually has a laser-focussed solid visual identity despite being a shameless remake? Most adults that don't live in San Francisco or whatever will see that this garbage is pretty much just another log of shit in a growing toilet of self-indulgent trauma therapies from overly socially-conscious and feminised directors. Directors that don't want to make cool heroic adventures for kids, just navel-gaze about their childhoods, transplanted over whatever hilariously niche minority hasn't been done yet
Elio is bland as fuck, that is its most damning problem. The entire aesthetic is boring.
It's a 3D Animated film about some kid getting zapped up into space and joining an alien council, which sounds cool as hell really, but the marketing materials just make it look overly effeminate and lame. Why is this called Elio and not something like The Amazing Galaxy Boy or some ridiculous shit
It's cause Pixar want the focus to be on some lame character drama about Elio overcoming his dead parents homophobia so he can proudly announce his xenogender to his alien maggot boyfriend
It speaks of a critical and alarming lack of managerial competence at Pixar that this film was allowed to continue development after the catastrophic releases of Strange World, Lightyear, and Turning Red. Elio is like a trite chimera of them all.

>>The film was conceived by Molina as a "personal coming-of-age story about youthful alienation."[9] Molina was inspired by his childhood growing up at a military base and eventual enrollment at the California Institute of the Arts when developing the film's story. Director Madeline Sharafian described his feelings on the private art school by saying "he felt like he'd found his people there, he'd found his world".[18] After working on the project for a couple of years, Molina felt like he "ultimately wasn't the one to see it to the finish line," exiting the film in order to work on Coco 2 (2029).[19]
Brown director self insert therapy. Nothing new or exciting for audiences.

A couple of months after AI slop started appearing. Originally, it was "goyslop", created (allegedly) by the Jews as a form of bread and circuses to prevent the rest of society from noticing Jew conspiracies and white genocide, but for some reason that idea never really took off in mainstream society.

AI slop even has its own Wikipedia page now: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_slop

>>211893178
When did companies stop trying to live up to a quality standard and just start pumping out garbage? Slop is the perfect word for 2020s entertainment. There’s no substance or flavor. It’s empty content for viewers to stuff themselves on.

No, "that player" is singular. However, singular they has been in use for something like 200 years and it's totally acceptable to everyone except the most retarded pedants. However, it should ONLY be used when gender is undetermined, not when someone decides they don't like their gender or whatever the fuck.

I say this every time it comes up
since they've had films in this style in the production pipeline more or less for a decade now, there HAS to have been a point during the production of this movie where they realized how uncommercial this art style was but it was too far along to scrap it or rework it
I wonder how long that was

>>211897156
Even 'pleb vs patrician' was substantially more nuanced than "if you [like/dislike] this movie you are indian"

It was around long before AI

>>211897410
And chad vs virgin was more nuanced than pleb/patrician but 99% of people who used it didn't realise it was chaotic vs lawful, not superhero (you) vs loser (that guy).
Are you upset that I said Indians are a problem?

>>211877341
They love almost every movie and every movie trailer they see.

>>211897560
I am upset you are not using an ounce of nuance for the extremely nuanced question of "why has the internet turned to shit in the last 15 years". Just saying "Indians did it" removes all accountability from you.
