I like this.
It was good.The character writing and animation were perfect, the general visuals were also solid, but I didn't like the ending. I read complimentary reviews for its worldbuilding, but I felt like I could've been more immersed in the setting and its occupants.It also wasn't as violent or filled with shock-moments as I thought it would be. Compared to Jeremie Perin's other works I've seen. Not a bad thing though.It was primarily a character-driven scifi detective story.>>143449263>>143453603Why is she like this?
>>143453603>>143453680>TFW i cant find any porn of herHow can a french cartoon not generate any rule 34?
>>143453878Hardly anyone has seen it. Even the USA release will probably be limited.Give it time, or money.
>>143453680
Alright, finished the film, my own review:Generally very good. Excellent animation, with lovely ligne claire style the French are so good at. Story was good too, though lacked real oomph, but that's not that great an issue. Didn't find anything to complain about at all which is nice. Good science fiction all around. If we get more in the style of this I'll be a happy man. Overall I give it an 8/10. Worth a watch.
>>143442297Looks sick. Thanks for the file.
>>143445386
Very glad to see a link; is there any way to support the makers of this legit?
>>143442297Thanks my dude! I have a deep love of AI and was really looking forward to this!
Thanks, I just saw this in theaters it was //great//
>>143455711just watch it in theaters,its out now per Gkids and its probably getting a physical release soon.
>>143455912oh, I didn't realize it had actually made it to american theaters. Luckily I took the day off on Monday, I'll look for one to go see it!
>>143455920Yeah you won't regret it, its pretty great.
>>143455961holy newfag
>>143448928This sounds like shockingly personal, and specific.
>>143443818How d'you display a video file like this?

>>143455961>https://4chan.org/faq
>>143453311I do have to ask how Hollywood animation can have budgets in the hundreds of millions, shit like "Tangled" costs over 260 Million Dollars and this got churned out at less than $10 million USD? Fuck even if it bombs its a drop in the bucket compared to how much you average D+ show.
>>143453300This is almost entirely a bad ending honestly, though its interesting to think that what everyone is basically being forced from into a shitty biopunk future by a bunch of moronic shareholders
>>143453300>>143456211 The ending essentially subverts the entire noir theme because the main character duo couldn't really do jack shit in the end, and the "hard-boiled" detective gets her brain blown out for nothing. It should've been obvious that absolutely nothing could have been done to stop the override by that point. but I was supised that They didn't even bring her back as a robot backup or anything.. The Robots just fucked off into space where I think its implied the formed a hive mind or somehthing
>>143442297>>143442512HELL YEAH LETSFUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Any romance/ sex scenes?
>>143453680 Its funny how the entire rebelion was staged just to sell shity biopunk tech that is objectively inferior to robots. Also THose bots are all fucked, space is hell for robots and I don't care how good your ship is
>>143456413 Actually, No. There is a lot of robot nudity and implied stuff but almost no on screen sex or romance Closest thing we had to anything was the Buddy cop and his ex-wife but there really isn't anything there besides him trying to talk to his kid
I see now that every theater in my whole flyover state is only showing it dubbed, so that's disappointing, but I might go see it anyways. And see if my brothers will go with me.
>>143456492I saw it dubbed, it's great. Really Gkids does a good job with this shit your not missing out on anything.
>>143443179Gonna watch it in theater on Friday.....Where?In what country?
I really enjoyed it up until that endingThe fact it was all just about money was lame. Carlos doesn't even go kill the board or anything.
>>143456744>The fact it was all just about money was lameold money are lame in general, only thing they care about is power / influence and seeing numbers go up on screen, despite being retarded it is realistic on motivations of shareholder types
>>143448712To poke your eye out
>>143456211>>143456287Yeah thats why i cant say i really liked this film. Its really weird seeing a film i REALLY enjoyed and then do a 180 on by the end because the ending sucked. It doesnt help that i crushed on the MC hard.
>>143456211>>143456287The ending wasn't that much of a let down for me A lot of French Noir has the protagonist dying, it's not that surprising but I agree it could have been better. Felt too low stakes over the whole thing then it turns into AI rebellion because stockholders want more money. Should have gone with something more Asimov like, I reckon. Still, the movie as a whole was very nice, and the ending is a only a minor letdown.
>>143457143whats the point of the genre if all the MCs just die by the end? How do they expect to make sequels?
>>143456041using ffmpeg, VapourSynth and x264https://pastebin.com/dLbXyrbi

>>143453300By destroying their own infrastructure and making everyone hat the idea of robots? It doesn't seem like a huge win. And didn't one scene imply the organics also had problems? They didn't even have safety measures put in place to stop them from attacking everything they saw. And it seemed like they were more prone to subterfuge like how the police station bio was put to sleep with some drugsSo they just let a bunch of potentially angry, basically jailbroken, robots flee to another solar system. It would have made more sense for the robots to destroy themselves instead of just flee.
>>143458261I know your right but i really crushed hard on the MC so seeing her get her brains blown out kinda soured my day when i saw this in the theater yesterday. Good movie otherwise since she was so enjoyable and cute
>>143455593NSFW >>>/aco/8183070
>>143442297HELL YEAH! Gonna download and watch right now.
>>143442297The ending really needed some emotional weight to it, like Carlos consciously choosing not to go to robo-Nirvana so he can continue to not see his daughter, or something
Ebin
The ending felt like sequel bait to me, Or maybe I'm just too used to Hollywood cliches and it's just a hopeless ending and nothing else.
>>143445386So that's the art deco fembot look our grandfather's were into. I get it now.>>143458261Seems like it could be a prequel to that one scifi book about a ghost invasion>>143458418Recognise the feel. Chat more about it, you'll feel better.>>143457176You might be in the wrong genre son
>>143457010Use jdownloader. It seems to get around that sometimes. Otherwise either use a vpn, or just put it in the jdownloader queue and let it do its thing. You’ll get it eventually and you won’t have to babysit it.
>>143460149 I doubt we’re getting anything a sequel to this, which is a shame because I think there is a lot of potential for more in the setting and they left a lot open in the end. Plus it kinda just ends. The movies been in production for over half a decade and it’s an indie film. Just look at how many parties they needed just to put it out. Though I’d really like a sequel which follows up on the fallout, it should be really easy to expose the whole over ride and i feel like bots are still very much fucked if they can’t find a planet to call home. Space is an endless microwave that’ll fry those ships after a few millennia.
so they spent a couple scenes talking about a probe sent off to explore the nearest inhabitable planet on the background but it just ends with the discovery that’s it’s probably uninhabitable what was the point of that?
>>143460250>Chat more about it, you'll feel better.i really liked the tipsy blonde meurotic detective girl and i wish she survived because she was cute, CUTE!!! Also yeah i realize french noir is probably not for me if the MC are there to get attached too and then immediately killed off
>>143460745To kill the last bit of hope you had left>>143460843If you're lucky there'll be at least one fluff fic out before the end of the month. Otherwise you'll just have to live with the pain.
>>143460863 hope for what? I was maybe expecting an alien plot twist somewhere but didn’t really think much of it. At best it might be a hint that the robots are fucked no matter where they go despite what the assistant AI believes. Maybe
>>143459814shouldve called it 1448 chan
>>143460939It's a small trend in dark scifi stories that hope of finding alien life is false and humanity is all there is, so if we fuck up that's it for the cosmos for at least the next couple billion years. Makes things just that bit bleaker.
>>143460939robots aren't humans are
>>143460994I hate that trend so much. Of course the universe is teaming with life i hate that nihilistic outlook that we are all that is out their.
>>143460994it was never implied they were looking for aliens they were thinking about colonizing outside the solar system which isn't feasible for humans, robots don't have the same limitations and can easily adapt to alien environments/ survive the astronomical timespans required for interstellar colonization to be possible
>>143461094Even if we develop FTL travel what are the chances that humans could actually survive it?
>>143461094>it was never implied they were looking for aliens they were thinking about colonizing outside the solar system which isn't feasibleApples, fruit similar to apples, the point is that Sol is all humanity has and if we fuck it up that's it.
>>143442297Hell yeah brother
>>143455912>company has "kids" in its name>american dub with soulless narrators being good>everI really really really really doubt this. Is there a sample of it or something?
>>143461094The movie does cut off dramatically at the end but the point is that the PI lady spends the entire story on a downward spiral that everyone tries to warn her away from trying to catch the singular villain behind a crimes it turns out are a result of dispassionate society wide forces. It's revealed that the robots and backups who've been staged as a side show were always the ones who were really important and they depart to colonize the universe while humanity and its problems get left behind
>>143461121depends on whether by survive you mean sending a 3D printer with a dna blueprint if not lollmao even
>>143461253What would happen if we sent live people in a warp bubble or with faster then light travel? Do we have any idea what would happen?
>>143457143>>143458261It was still a robot rebellion, the robots just tricked the stockholders into implementing their harebrained scheme in order to get the fuck out of dodge. Beryl planned the whole thing possibly even messing with the organics sales to make it more likely to happen.
>>143461347dunnoprovide a theoretical physics model of a "warp bubble" and we'll see I guess
>>143460745I thought that was a hint at where the robots were heading to, Beryl mentions finding a good place for them all.
>>143453300>>143461355>>143461705 Beryl is basically the real antagonist in this movie. She essentially brainwashed a bunch of robots into heading off into space on ships that were probably not even built for long-distance space travel. So, Carlos was right; they'll probably be fried eventually. She tricked the board into staging a false flag to promote their objectively inferior biotech, even though it would be easy to hold them liable for the override. The damn cops spent, what, two hours looking at the update code and realized everyone was screwed. Hell, people might not even abandon machines once it gets out that this was all just a false flag to push smelly, crappy, and weird biopunk to the masses. Really, I think she should have just told Allison the truth while she was at the police station because it was basically over by that point, and she could've done more to get back at the board than anything.
>>143442297Nice, I'll be watching this later tonight.
Was waitng for the sub release of this film since the trailer dropped.And man its fucking good.Gonna dump some action webms
>>143462308
>>143462363
I hate mega.
>>143462435im not even sure if bullets would work like that IRL but it was really cool
>>143462525>>143462435If Carlos, who was specifically stated to be an older model, can absolutely wipe the floor with those augmented soldiers and even that big-ass bio-tank monster, I genuinely wonder why they were pushing the biotech so much for military use. In terms of sheer capability, the bots beat flesh every time. The only advantage I can think of is that flesh can't be brainwashed with an update or just hacked like any other piece of tech. How stupid was the board to push this crap, even if Beryl was playing them?

You know, it's interesting in the film how no matter what, the average working joe is screwed in the long run. They are not getting their jobs back and even if they fully get rid of the robots their still fucked with the organics down the line
>>143462629you gotta remember Carlos was ex military, so I assume he has a lot more combat knowledge than your average robot
>>143462708He does, since plenty of non combat robots get destroyed by trained professionals during the film.
title drop
It was great. But ending made me sad. Didnt expect that.
>>143442297Just got out of the Theater. I was watching the GKids twitter closely for a few weeks, so I could get a seat day 1. Loved the sci-fi concepts, the character designs and animation. Everybody on Deck is probably my favorite studio now.The ending was kind of meh. The main character didn't really have an arc. And I don't think they showed enough of the world for me to care. Like it seems like if you come back as a backup and break the law, they can just destroy you full stop. I guess it's not killing you because your backup is stored on a warehouse somewhere?>>143461211Gkids is only called Gkids because they distribute foreign animation, and most of that is for kids. The dub is great. Better than both dubs of Lastman in my opinion.
>>143462629Well, they did say that nobody was buying. They wouldn't have needed to get rid of the robots if the biotech was so much better, right?
>>143460843It's called tragedy anon, and French Noir is full of it. It's a special kind of feeling, it's not for everyone, but it's fun to sit back and enjoy the melancholy.
this part really thought things were gonna be okfuck...
>>143461355>>143462176I don't know, I feel that's a bit far. The film was pretty good on the foreshadowing, e.g Aline getting tricked by the Augmented guy into finding the missing girl so Royjacker could eliminate her. Beryl being the secret mastermind is too thin.
>>143466526I just wish we got more of Beryl. Most of her characterization was in that one short scene at the party.
>>143442297Ok what in the living hay is this?
I enjoyed it, but the story was too typical Noir for me. Nothing new, revolutionary, spontaneous, serendipitous. No meaningful statement. The plot's just a vehicle to show off the visuals and the world.
>>143468766Why do idiots think every product needs a message or something novel in regards to production?
>>143466490Yeah, that tricked me too. Damn.>>143462708>>143462726That one robot that got hacked in the university lab injured an augmented human in a fight, and we see how good they are at fighting.
>>143448712>>143469655Sometimes a horn is just a horn.
>>143442297How does a planet Mars going to Express itself?
I command you to LIVE until I get around to watching this later.
>>143442297did anyone else catch this?
>>143461074>Of course the universe is teaming with lifeit seems like it should be, but where the hell is everyone?
>>143468119French animated movie set on near future Mars, where a private detective and her AI partner investigate a murder that leads them down a rabbit hole regarding robots, which are ubiquitous in this society.
>>143462629carlos only beat the augmented humans because they didn't know he had been jailbroken he didn't "absolutely wipe the floor" with that bigass monster, he almost destroyed himself to take it down.
>>143471338is it fair to call that a non-combat robot? it essentailly got the new update a day or so early and that update seems to have included combat training
>imagine
I might be the only person here who saw this in an honest to God theater. Would have missed it if a friend hadn't invited me. My impressions were positive. Admittedly that's because I'm a sucker for serious Western animation, for near future space settings, and for Mars colonization in general. My father always said he liked watching movie "for the images", and I guess that's true for me as well with movies like this. Visually I found it a very relaxing movie to watch. Great design all around, and the animators had a good sense of weight. For instance, the scenes where Carlos moves at greater than human speed and he looks kind of goofy. It makes him look less human, but that's the point. He isn't human. And a human frame moving like that would look odd. I appreciate they did that, instead of an lean-forward anime pose most of us would probably expect.As for the story, I thought it was OK. It seems to me that it's more "French" to have a story where characters are mostly reacting to events outside of their own control. I've seen it more often in Franco-Belgian comics. I feel stories where the MC is special on some way, or has more agency than we could reasonably expect from a normal person, are more "American".And maybe the same goes for stories where the MC dies. I recently read a Franco-Belgian comic where society is completely fucked, the MC gets dicked along by powerful groups, the bad guys win, but only briefly because the MC fails in his attempt to save humanity and actually kills humanity save for one small group who get a fresh start, who are then heavily hinted to start repeating the entire process.
>>143453300I liked the ending because it was [spoilers]anti-copaganda[/spoiler]. Too many movies end with a few corrupt ones being implicated when it is the entire system that is corrupt. There's no way the good ones get off scot-free without being made an example of.
>>143474378>reddit in charge of not being a literal retard
>>143474470I get that reddit is smarter than you, but think of how the police functions in a place like Mexico or Russia. There are a few good ones, but the corrupt ones are the most powerful. You're not going to change the status quo from outing a few bad ones
>>143474486Okay, but the most corrupt ones are in the pockets of the elites. Who, mind you, are the ones who win at the end of this movie, lol.The status quo hasn't even changed at the end of the movie. The board got what they wanted, the only people who knew are dead, and the system hasn't changed. The only cops left are the ones that answer to the same elites. And the only reason the MC died is because she opposed them.
>>143474486Negro, you literally can't even use spoiler tags and the character you're talking about isn't even a cop. You are retarded, regardless of your political aspirations. Also, this is a /pol/ discussion and you can take it there.
>>143474551that's exactly what I am talking about! It's anti-copaganda for that reasonUsually in buddy cop films it has a good ending where a few good cops change the status quo by outing a few corrupt officers. Magnum Force, Zootopia, LA Confidential, and Sicario have those themes. It's why it's considered copaganda This movie is different where she doesn't change the status quo at all and the bad cops cover it up to protect the elite. It has a bad end but it feels more real. I was pleasantly surprised
>>143474658Are you stupid or something? The movie covers politics and it is the most surface level type of politics. It has riots against a marginalized class along with an elite and corrupt police force.
>>143442297why do the robot's heads float?
>>143469687Every film has a message in it, the theme is that you can't change the status quo at all regardless of how hard you try. It is only sanctioned for profit.I don't get it when people claim that it is generic, it is rare if anything.

>>143474815they're holograms. i thought it was obvious and the scenes in which a physical object clipds through the projection and leaves a hole in it were really cool.
>>143474867i agree that the movie is political but that was more of an easter egg than anything else.
>>143474911It's not a central theme of the movie, but it is a blatant example of the movie having real-world politics in it. It's tiring to see anti-intellectual imbeciles who get mad at others for discussing the political themes in media. Most creatives insert political themes in the first place because they want to make their work meaningful to their audience after spending years on it.I get that it would be ridiculous to discuss the politics of something like Teletubbies, but this is a serious indie film aimed at adults. It's obviously intended to have a mature message in it like most of adult indie films do. Hot damn.

Only saw in theater so haven't given it a more recent rewatch:Relatively classic story; Good setting, animation, climax; detective thriller part could be better, I expected something more out of the last sequence that could have put it above the genre’s tropes; 7/10>Probably could have had a bit more environmental/architectural visual identity.>Slightly bothered that I don’t know if the setting has FTL or not, Communicaitons within the solar system seem FTL, but then interstellar coms have light speed communication >The bio-technology is visually more interesting than the mechanical one (which sadly sometime is in 3DCG), love some of the effects of implants, the lab-bio-computers and the organic mecha >That many characters are dead person whose consciousness gets simulated and hosted on robots is a bit inexplicably treated as a (predictable) plot twist (despite being known in universe) , shame because it’s a good concept that deserved to be explained and explored more from the start
>>143442297Why didn’t GKIDS give this a wide release like The Boy and The Heron?

>>143453300I love that a movie could take a risk like that. Shows that it has some guts and isn't totally predictable.
Thanks,OP. I missed it on theater and I can't wait to buy it.
Pretty good ngl.The animation felt a tit weird initially, but I got used to it. Lotsa facial expressions.Nice story, sorta noir in space. Worth a watch.8/10
>>143458261>And didn't one scene imply the organics also had problems?Feller couldn't even get a proper connection phone call with his mums via org*nic crap.Another day, another time stupid fucking corposhitters ruin it for everyone in pursuit of that one penny of extra profit. Grim.
>>143459814That bit about celebrities calling for human resistance over social network is good too lmao.
>>143473794We are the Ancient Aliens, la. The Precursors. The Seeders of Life.Just have to iron out a few things still.
Okay on a slightly related note does any anon have a me ga for Technotise or any other euro-sci-fi either animated or LA?
>>143462629Of course they got spanked here, they didn't account on him being a factor whatsoever.Carlos was shown a few times to not being able to act against a human. See here >>143462308 for example. The blade lady didn't even bother with him other than cutting his arm that blocked the way, because why would she?If those blokes knew they needed to rid of him, they'd absolutely would.
>>143445386>>143460250>the art deco fembot look our grandfather's were intoSorayama!
reminder that the bluray comes out in 4 days
>>143474819It's like every single noir I've ever scene.
>>143484113 Yeah, it's pretty clear that as a product, the organics were inferior in every aspect compared to the robots. Remember Baryl's replacement? A freaky lump of flesh the size of a wall floating in a fish tank. Although, to be fair, they had been around for decades by that point. Still, it seems like there wasn't anything biopunk tech could do that machines hadn't already outpaced. And, , anyone could have just looked at the update and found the override. They chose the most obvious and idiotic way to carry out their plans; it would've taken less than a day to pin the rebellion on them. [spoiler[
>>143474819>Every film has a message in itThis is the telltale sign of a retard. A movie can just be a movie made for entertainment. Also the previous post said this movie had no real message then you said they all have one.And the status quo did change, the robots are all gone. The ultimate goal wasn't to topple a government, take down a crime syndicate, or lead to some kind of anti-corporative social reform. Aline and Carlo's mission was to uncover a plot and try to stop it, but the plot focused on changing the status quo of human society by completely gutting the integration of synthetic life in it and all that was related to that. They're the ones that tried stopping this from happening.
>>143486384 >Destroy your main source of revenue in the hopes that your shitty organics become popular. >Leave a clear paper trail back to you with the overide literally being encoded into an update. >Kill anything and everything that could possibly get in your way >????? Profit? it would be like if Apply rigged all their old Iphones to literally self-destruct to sell their crappy VR goggles
>>143480843Yeah except they really do just fuck off into space for the long haul, presumably to get fried by some quaser beam barreling through the cosmsos. THough honestly they could just set up shop across the asteroid belt and be fine
>>143486718Doesn't apple already sort of do that? Like fucking with the cache systems on older devices to make sure you need a new phone?
Does this character feel like a self insert to anyone? For some reason the MC is attracted to him, he has the art deco sex-bot from all the marketing, and gets more screen time than some other more pertinent characters lol
>>143487754 Well in this case it would be like if Apple just made all their old iphones explode, like Samsung batteries, all at once just to shill their VR crap that no one wants. Even if no one can legally pin all this on them they're probably going to be sued to oblivion because all their products went to shit shortly after the overide code built into their fucking update.
>>143487869I thought it was a celebrity reference. Like Adam Driver or something.Some kind of generic "tall, dark, and handsome" type guy for her to be attracted to.Simon was cuter anyway.
>>143487869 He almost feels like a red herring to me. In the end, he turned out to be just some professor who barely knew anything, except for that brain farm stuff. Apart from that, he had no impact on anything at all. You'd think he'd be involved somehow, but no, he really knew nothing about anything. Maybe he is just some french celeb homage?
>>143442297Good shit.Animation and writing were very nice.Ending left a bit of a sour taste in my mouth, though.Shit, the bots'll probably fry before they make it anywhere like Carlos said.Damn shareholders.>>143466490Yeah, that stung.
>>143486718Everyone got duped by Beryl into thinking the plan was solid, she played them all like fools.
Was Novgirad supposed to be a test site for the takeover plan? Aline says it was jailbreaking and that the robots in their unit starting randomly shooting them, but that isn't how jailbreaking is really depicted in the movie.
>>143481463It got better, you see it for a split second with the other robots going to upload their minds to the ships.
>>143489352It could have just been another cat.
Give me Mars to Express myself.
>>143489206maybe the soldiers had just been total cunts to the robots for a long time before they were jail broken. the robots were for sure being used as minesweepers, etc.
>>143491736
>>143489332I could have saved her...
>>143487869Basically, it's a self insert of a communist "journalist" of the main French leftist investigative newspaper (who also became known in the 2000s for video games videos)
>>143486718>>143488128This is assuming that they're beholden to some law, corporations in cyberpunk rarely are.
>>143486601>anyone could have just looked at the update and found the overrideYeah, nah, mate. Not with 300 billion lines of bullshit spaghetti code obfuscating the important bits.Look how modern webbrowsers weigh 100 mega for no reason whatsoever (other than Big Browser bullcrap making you the product on top of the ads). You willing to audit the 1 km long code sheet? Yeah, that's what I thought.Anyway, the thinking cutlets have one potential advantage over old ass mech tech - they could be self sustaining, in a sense when any and all minor damages to the structure, wear and whatnot could be self repaired, just like the flesh in real fleshy creatures does. Robot needs a technician and a tool.But not necessarily on the level it was presented in the movie.
>>143485124Funny scene, made me smile.>>143487869Not really, because I don't know the guy and have barely any idea about the French animation scene.>>143488133>Adam DriverCrossed my mind as well lol.>>143462435You guys think those inflatable units feels squishy?
>>143489380Let me believe.
>>143486718Just like in real, big corps arent run by particularly bright individuals. Feels like both robots and humans are delusional on their own way.
>>143487869>Does this character feel like a self insert to anyone?No. I think he was just there to flesh out the settings and show how uncaring and fucked up the scholar system is. He also accidentaly help Aline connect the dots in a rather organic way. I'm more confused about the golden girl. Maybe the animators just really liked her design, or maybe she had a bigger role at some point.
>>143442297thanks, gonna watch it.
>>143461355That doesn't make any se-The university lecturer starting out with apologetics for how shitty organics areThe extrasolar system mentioned a bunch of times turning out uninhabitable by humansBeryl repeatedly assuring Aline that everything was going to be okay while the boss was just a classic corpo-rat douche"Beryl even suggested the plan to the stakeholders"fuuuuck
>>143442297Looks computer animated
>>143496983Woah, no way.
>>143458185Is there a how-to guide for this script? I installed ffmpeg and vapoursynth on Ubuntu and now I am lost.
>>143497648download https://pastebin.com/dl/dLbXyrbi as a mars_express_zoetrope.vpy file, copy it to the folder with Mars.Express.2023.FRENCH.1080p.WEB-DL.H264-Slay3R.mkv, run commented commands on line 7, 94 (with the >>143458185 fix), 95 and 96
>>143494000Wtf are you smoking, this character has nothing to do with Usul.
>>143498396Nothing... except you know,being voiced by him
So they look gross, have an odd odor, and don't even work properly? Beryl made these people all look like morons for going along with this.
>>143486384 It's funny how the main CEO, usually the one in charge in these types of moives, turned out to be a complete idiot, unable to control anything, not even his own company. Beryl played him, while his psychotic shareholders were the ones really running the show, only concerned with covering their own backs, even if they had little chance of getting caught. And his own guards? They were just waiting for the order to take him out.
>>143485124>That shrug
>>143474707>muh copagandaRetarded leftist buzzword. a cop stopping from raping someone is copaganda to you people.
>>143499911I wonder how far they'll push organics assuming they eventually take off. I think the angle they're going for is that even if they are worse in every way, organics can still do what the robots can. So how long until you have them being used for everything bots were? How would a bio-engineered sex person like the robots be treated compared to their mechanical predecessors? You can't bullshit an excuse that they aren't alive anymore when they're flesh and blood, so what then? Honestly, it would be even more messed up if the cycle just repeats itself, except now you can't even use the excuse that they are just robots.
>>143485124you know, i don't think i've seen such evocative facial expressions in any recent animated movie. they are different from what i'm accustomed to. they are simple, minimal, but perfect.
>>143474707>This movie is different where she doesn't change the status quo at all and the bad cops cover it up to protect the elite. It has a bad end but it feels more real. I was pleasantly surprisedThis is less of a political statement and more of an acknowledgement that if a society is too far gone then even good people who catch on won’t be able to do anything. Orwell’s 1984 did this too.
>>143501464It's funny how simple smirks, grimaces, or awkward glances are so effective in this art style, compared to other styles.It's exaggerated, but in a human way that feels familiar I think.
>>143485124french girls are so cute.
>the "Aline is alive" fakeout>Carlos can't wipe his tears away
>>143502866>>143502900god, it hurts so fucking much
>>143502866It's not fair.
>>143442297any cats in this?
>>143482499These links aren't working...
>>143504668>aren't workingwrong. Nintendo clue.
Jesus Christ, what the fuck was that.
>>143494300The cops figured it out after Aline told them about it, they just couldn't do anything before it was too late. After the cleanup happens I imagine it wouldn't be hard to trace it back to Royjacker's company.
>>143495564I'll take that sliver of hope that carlos is ok and banging beryl instead of being fried in space
>>143506202 The entire plot kicked off because Royjacker's and the shareholders realized how screwed they actually were by promoting organics, so they remained at the mercy of the market. Additionally, with the authorities already onto them, the fact that older models like Carlos, who couldn't receive the update, were fine would raise flags within a week.
>>143442297I saw it in a theater today. Sorry, but I thought it was pretty weak.It came of as a knock-off of "Ghost in the Shell", with boringly photorealistic characters devoid of style.I also thought it had a misguided envisioning of robots. Whenever a robot got "jailbroke" they would jump around in hysteria just like someone who just broke out of a hypnotic spell, and that looked totally farcical. Let's face it: robots with full human emotions are inherently silly characters. If the show is a comedy or has comedic overtones like "Futurama" or "Robot Dreams", or if you want comic relief characters like "Star Wars" droids, then you can get away with fully emotive robots. Not here...And let's be honest. Aline Ruby was NOT the MC. Carlos Rivera was. He was the character in the middle of the central conflict of robots' place in society. He also had the personal conflict of trying to reconnect with his hostile family. And the movie ended with his decision to concede the world's rejection of him. Aline was just some barfly that was Carlos's sidekick.
>>143442297bump
Was it cel-shaded cgi or actual 2d animation?It looked really choppy at times, so i don't get why people are saying the animation was good.I thought the movie was fine, but PG-rated GitS episode.
>>143510233Think the robots were cel-shaded cg, the humans were 2d.
>>143508222This might be the most retarded criticism I've seen of a movie. It's like saying "time travel is inherently absurd", then giving back to the future a bad review. If you reject the premise of a fiction, your input is pointless.
>>143510233why are you even on co if you can't tell the difference? This one isn't even hard
>>143511024I have eye problems, but based on the frame rate, i'm guessing that the robots parts were CGI? Because i only really see that on budget CGI shows. Very choppy at parts.
>>143510233It's looks like Technotise: Edit i ja and that's GOOD, I absolutely love this kind of robotic animation used in cyberpunk movies, it fits the genre. Still sad that Aleksa Gajic never got money for the sequel.
>>143508222Anon, photorealistic means exactly what it says. As realistic as a photograph. This film is not photorealistic. Maybe you're just confused because it's less stylized than the typical anime. Anyway, robots in movies take on human emotions because that's how humans make them. That's a reasonable take in any setting with robots, and in this setting in particular we can see there's such a demand for this particular kind of robot that people create robot replacements of dead people and treat them as near-equals. You're using the Vulcan interpretation of logic, which translates to efficiency. But people are emotional creatures, and they want emotional things. Maybe you're the monkey baby that would hug the wire mother, but all the others would hug the cloth mother.
>>143511960I'm not a fan when it doesn't sync up and/or it is just low frame rate bullshit. It's pretty sad that fucking Futurama from season 1 had better CGI that fits right in into the animation, yet a movie that comes out 23 years later looks worse.Also, you example reminds me of the Maxx animated series, but with tweening
>>143508222>And let's be honest. Aline Ruby was NOT the MC. Carlos Rivera was. He was the character in the middle of the central conflict of robots' place in society. He also had the personal conflict of trying to reconnect with his hostile family. And the movie ended with his decision to concede the world's rejection of him. Aline was just some barfly that was Carlos's sidekick.This is just a statement, but you're presenting it like criticism.
>>1435102332D, robots and some vehicles were cell shaded 3D
>>143485124lol
>>143512209In the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly the protagonist is clearly Tuco despite the title implying - nay, PROMISING - that all three tritagonists would have equal moral consideration!
>>143502866This and the moment where Beryl make the robots cries and reach out to Carlos as a sign of mourning, are why I don't get the "this movie lacked an emotional impact at the end". It had but it's a dow-to-earth slow and agonizing realization instead of the big emotional explosion and send off we're accustomed to see in fictions.>>143508222>Aline Ruby was NOT the MC.Deuteragonist are a thing. Aline is more connected to Beryl, Roy or every human character involved in the plot, including Jun's copy, than he was. They were complementary. She's what drive the plot where Carlos would have given up when the case got closed and his following/supporting Aline until he can't.
Overrated movie, but still above the average slop
Good movie, but all the people saying it's like Ghost in the Shell clearly don't actually watch anime because the entire time I felt like I was watching a French Armitage.
>>143513672It's a bit more subtle and a lot of people are dumb and expect bombastic emotional events even when they aren't required for "impact"

I hope to be able to get tickets to see this, wonder how long it will be in theaters
>>143515857When people say it's like GitS, they're probably thinking of the series, where it's more like a police procedural TV show, but with cyberpunk.Mars Express is actually really close to one of the first episodes where some bratty son of an ambassador wants to make his vintage real doll/android more special, so he creates a virus that makes the same-model androids suicide themselvesAmazing show and it can be very fun.There's even a 2chan episode, where they argue if a hacker is cool
>>143482499Cool, thanks.
>>143455920mfw I just got back from seeing it
>>143520132NTA, but meh. Lastman is so vastly overrated. I seriously don't get the appeal. Admittedly, I'm talking about the comic, because I've never seen the show. And I probably never will, because the comic couldn't hold my interest. The fact that everyone is tugging it off so hard genuinely makes me feel like an alien.
>>143493180This design with the male voice was pretty attractive.>>143521169As a fan of the show who wasn't a fan of the comic, yes, it's good. The characters, the music, the art direction, it's a great experience. I didn't get to receive full enjoyment of Lastman S2, because going through the comic, it just wasn't anywhere near the same experience of satisfaction that I got with the show, that I ended up dropping it, and watched S2 after reading spoilers.
>>143521169The show is not the comic. Essentially Jeremie Perin had a separate idea for the show so he changed a lot of lore/direction. It's a very, very loose prequel story to the books, but an entirely new story. It's pretty great. Like gravity falls for a mature audience and a boxing backdrop.
>>143522409I liked how he actually cared about her and tried his best to not get her killed. What a shame.
>>143521125I'm getting worried about watching this now. Is this going to make me curse society and take up hard liquor?
>>143521125loool
>>143521294
>>143524464they get a lot out of a few lines
>>143521169Anyone talking about it is mostly talking about the TV show in fact it is/was a prequel of the comic so you should have started with that but anyway the show is it's own thing and probably better than the comic at this point.
>>143481181What part does the cat appear? What part of the episode?
>>143524747Intro
>>143523868It's taking inspiration from Cyberpunk and Noir. There was never gonna be a happy ending lol
>>143520799Yeah, this is more like Solid State Society. The movie that came after Second Gig. I feel the GitS is better at giving the impression of a massive conspiracy. In Mars, Royjacker feels way too small until the end.

>>143521125How 'bout that ending, huh?
>>143527369>>143528227>Same artistic director and writer as Mia and the MigooThat makes more sense now
I think I liked the movie. But I still feel like the setting was probably under explored. In spite of how you got to see a good bit of it. I mean. The movie could just as well have taken place on a futuristic Earth and you would have barely have noticed a difference. For a movie called Mars Express that's hardly what I expected. Though I guess the title turned out to be a reference to that software update thing that was relevant at the end. I loved the animation and how characters emoted and all of that stuff though. Really good stuff.
>>143521169>because I've never seen the showGive it a chance. Really. And that's coming from someone who read (some of) the comics first. Don't write the show off due to whatever impression you got from the comics.
She is still pretty cute. Which is impressive for her age. But I get the feeling that Aline was bombshell sexy when she was younger. She looked pretty good in that old military photo of them all too when they were younger.
>>143527733>they murdered the cute artstyle....Elaborate.
So. Do we think that they actually had a threesome with the golden fembot. Or did Aline get the cuck chair while being ignored by the professor who had a self declared distaste towards real women? Because sex was no doubt had. With or without Aline.
>>143502866I mean, the _real_ Carlos died during the uprising, or whatever, and this is only a back-up, hardly up-to-date copy, that (falsely) believes to be the continuation of late Carlos' consciousness, which it's not, since being a digital image dump in an artificial, humanoid-like body (deprecated model from the dumpster too at that), innit.
>>143506202How does "being told explicitly what's about to happen" constitute "figuring it out" in any capacity?>>143508222Whoa slow down with those hot takes, Roger Ebert!>>143529397No, Aline went straight to the toilet ruining the evening for everyone involved.
>>143529309she's supposed to look chubby and cute in the trailer years ago and now they made her thinner.
>>143529397I was under the impression that he was either going to but she just started puking into the toilet or he had no plans but he strongly convinced him to let her into his apartment anyway.
>>143529733>cute in the trailer years ago and now they made her thinnerOh. I see. Well. That's a shame.
>>143442297Even for free, pass.
really looking forward this movie
>>143527437True, but you can easily fix it. Simple as--speed=1.05--audio-pitch-correction=no(not perfect thanks to forced rounding but close enough).I can't believe I'm saying this, but having seen the film in theaters—with two different groups of friends, so twice!—the dub is genuinely better assuming you're a native English speaker. You may wish to hold out for that. The script is superbly edited ("Dear friends! Kindly fuck yourselves") and every actor works well (with the sole and unfortunate exception of Jenapher Zheng as Jun, who has all the emotive power of a stoned turtle).
>>143530170when will it release?
>>143530271still in production so not for a while would be my guess, no date has been given yet.
>>143527437I'm pretty sure that the 24 fps is the correct speed. It could be 25 fps if the movie is produced specifically for TV in PAL region, for example Wallace and Gromit shorts.
>>143530261I'm a native french speaker and saw the dubbed version and it is better than the french version.
>>143530261>>143530441Is the dubbed version uploaded?I definitely agree the original version has unremarkable voice acting,definitely not bad but it's not a strong point of the movie.
>theatrical run in the US>opening weekend: $100,000Uh......
>>143530719L'Oof
>>143530719I liked the movie. But I don't even think it's amazing or anything. But what really just stands out to me. Is how little interest the US has in non-kid animation. Why is this?
>>143530719>muts being uncultured swines once againIts not marvelslop after all.
>>143530580No, you'll have to wait for the US streaming/video release if you aren't lucky enough to be near a theater actually showing it. I'm glad that >>143530441 is reaffirming my instincts (although I speak no French).>>143530719Well, I live in a major metro area with 30–35 cinemas within striking distance, and Mars Express is playing in exactly four (and one has only a single daily showtime). Dragonkeeper—fucking Dragonkeeper!—plays on five times more screens here. I also didn't spot a single trailer for Mars Express, and I watch a lot of the right kind of movies in the theaters So it's not so much bad taste as it is GKIDS not prioritizing the theatrical release at all.Speaking of this film getting no press whatsoever, check out MWd4e_nQucs on YouTube—this no-name YouTuber got a fifteen-minute interview with Jérémie Périn, and as of the moment I post this it has thirty-one views (including mine). Life sucks.
>>143530580No i'm currently in the US and saw it there.
>>143531128Yeah the lack of press is upsetting. There are like no reviews of the movie even. Is GKIDs betting on a streaming deal? (Probably)I wonder why it's been virtually ignored by most critics. Is there really so much else to talk about in movie releases right now?
>>143531128>30–35 cinemas within striking distance>mfw
Can somebody sell me on this? Because just from the outside looking in, it looks like a less interesting Ghost in the Shell.

>>143532187So, this movie isn't worth watching then? Kay
>>143532214>>143532045>>143531904I don't know why you think you need other people to tell you what to do instead of just coming up with your own opinions. You can watch the fucking thing for free and if you don't like it you can drop it. If you didn't want to watch it in the first place, why even bother asking in the thread? Think for yourself for once in your life, you dumb sheep.
>>143528227You're the best anon
>>143530441This might be the first French movie for me where the english dub actors actually sound better than the French ones. Josh Keaton's performance was perfect.
>>143532323>Hurr, why don't you watch it yourself and-Fuck you. I have other movies and things to watch, I've seen the trailer and it doesn't seem that interesting. I want to support an upcoming studio, but it doesn't look that interesting. If you can't or won't say anything wrorth talking for this movie, then I'm not going to bother. Because I have other shit to watch. I've already been burned with shit like Scavengers Run, I wanted to be sure if it was worth my time.
>>143533347NTA but Runes series also has amazing dub with so many various unique voices and accents, while French cast sounds extremely pale and boring with pretty much zero individuality at all.
I'm waiting for YIFY

>>143442297This movie fucking FLOPPED.https://www.cartoonbrew.com/box-office-report/the-garfield-movie-is-impressive-overseas-mars-express-and-dragonkeeper-are-snubbed-in-u-s-241078.html
>>143537000Flopped suggests that we thought it would do better than it has. I'm pretty sure Jeremie Perin knew exactly how well it would do, too.It's a foreign movie with no marketing except word of mouth. It's animated, but has very adult content and themes. The type of person that would go out to see this movie is extremely niche. The movie already made back its cost when it released in France with much more fanfare. The theatrical release here was obviously just a pleasantry. Which is also probably why they're releasing the Blu-ray in only a few weeks.
>>143537182I watched a guy walk in with two 6 or 7-year-old boys. I was going to tell him it was an adult movie before it started, but I wasn't sure how he would react, and I was kinda interested to see how long it would take this moron to leave with his kids.He stayed through the drinking, the gory intro scene, and the multiple f-bombs. Even though he looked kinda uneasy the whole time. It was like he knew he should leave, but couldn't bare the embarrassment or annoyance of his kids for leaving a movie he just paid 40 bucks for.The robot strip-club was too much, though. He got up and started pulling his kids out, exactly at this frame. He didn't come back, lol.The concept of serious animated content for adults eludes a lot of Americans.
>>143537000I didn't watch it to gloat about revenue.
>>143497761Unfortunately, I got the same VSPipe issue as this anon. >>143536239I tried it on both Mac and Ubuntu. Maybe it'll work with Windows? I'll see if I can report back.
>>143537354Hillarious. It'd take a hundred of consecutive older audience releases of animated films before that way of thinking changes.
>>143537354I had friends who worked box office when Princess Mononoke was released in the US in 1999. Tons of angry parents screaming. Over Mononoke.
>>143528227You're a god.Is opensubtitles.org down for anybody else?
>>143537000Definitely not a condemnation of the quality of the film, just a total lack of awareness.That said, I am deeply depressed that Dragonkeeper actually did better per screen. Mind you, that film had at least a small marketing budget and it has the huge advantage of being based on a relatively popular book series, but it is also a truly dire bit of soulless pap. It is apparently not enough that American audiences aren't told about excellent foreign animation, they ARE told about trash foreign animation (by which standard they then judge the stuff they haven't been told to see).

>>143442297torrent plx
Aline's fucking hot. Too bad no one fucking draws any of Jeremie's fucking characters.
>>143540788Yeah I think she's hot too, but his style is very clinical so I suppose his characters wouldn't peak people's interest. Any requests?
>>143540947Aline in uniform chugging some tequila straight from the bottle pls.
>>143540955Which one, lol?
>>143541023I just noticed this says Aline Royjacker. I wonder if she was initially part of the Royjacker family during production. That could've been interesting.
>>143541023Let's go with the first one lel
>>143541047Maybe it "felt" better as an antagonist name?
I'm glad the brown hacker woman made it til the end.
>>143541358I'm not.

>>143541358I ended up liking her more than I thought I would. Maybe it was because of her voice.
>>143543100Confirmed the same. The file is fine, but hosting site is pretty suspicious. Person who made it announced so on reddit and fielded every question people had for him. Use a VPN.>>143543175Oh, well if a random forum member on a Russian-hosted gaming site says it’s ok…
>>143543974https://fmhy.pages.dev/file-tools#file-hosts also recommends it
>>143537354I honestly don't understand the mindset of going to watch a random movie you know nothing about in the theater. Especially when you clearly had a set of criteria to begin with, namely that it should be child friendly. Imagine approaching the rest of life in the same way. Mogadishu? Sounds whimsical, perfect place for a holiday.

>>143544696I worked in a US movie theater for a while in 2017/18, and I can tell you that a significant minority (some days it feels like a majority) of people come in and ask for "whatever the Marvel movie is right now" or "the Tyler Perry movie" or just, "something good... surprise me." Though this be madness and I also don't understand it at all, it seems to be an extremely common madness.

>>143537354lmao I wonder what his kids thought
>>143546102Of course the fucking french give the robot an ass.
>>143550342enjoy, anon
Pretty lame.
I went to the on screen subs ver with gf at the theater, thinking it was the french version, but it was just the dub with subtitles sadly.
Needed more Aline lore
it didnt blew my mind, but its quite an impressive work. Its a momentum type of movie and the best of it its just there almost at the ending. More then half of it its just mostly atmosphere, conceptual exposition, eye candy, and not too much else. Its the type of thriller that while its coherent, the revelation its not mind-blowing. However i found quite beautiful that robots did found complete fraternity in the end, even if humans just wanted to get rid of them in their colonies.Its not a particularly deep movie ¿but who wouldn't wish that this could be the average adult animated movie instead of the same nihilistic teenagy cartoon crap you see in the west? Now lets way for season 3 of lastman.
>>143553904Needed more cure Aline expressions.
>>143553066I guess I’m going to have to head back home because I’m lost as fuck and can’t find the parking and I’m twenty minutes late. I should have gotten an Uber. I’m really upset.
>>143554663too bad, you still got the torrent and mega option. I downloaded it via torrent, and it was quite the memorable experience. Try to get home safe.
Is the USA movie theater release dubbed?
>>143554880It is, and we live in Bizarro World because pretty much everyone's in agreement that the English dub is actually better than the French
>>143554973For animated stuff I just choose the language they would naturally be speaking realistically, its more immersiveThis and Cyberpunk Edgerunners, english makes the most sense
>>143555009In contrast to regular television and film, where even if a certain language would be more realistic heard, you can't just replace an actors mouth movements and body language. Maybe in the future with AI, but not now
>>143537354Funny story but a lot of people probably skipped this thinking the same thing that dad thought.
>>143554723I’m so angry. I debated between an Uber and driving there myself and thought to drive to save money. This was the last movie showing I would have been able to catch. Every other showing is too far away.
>Get to watch Mars Express, Sirocco, and Chicken for Linda in the same weekYou know something /co/, you're alright.Seriously though, this has been a great thread. Decided to see the movie in theaters while it's still playing and wish it was longer, but otherwise I loved it.
Just got back from seeing it in theaters, best movie I've seen all year.
>>143531839its nice to live in NYC, we get movies here that no one else does, to say nothing of all the live theater
M-maybe I can still see it on Friday. It just requires>driving in to BurbankCan I do it???
>What about the cat robot?>Jérémie Périn: That’s just for imitation because maybe there aren’t any real cats anymore in that world. It’s just as dumb as that. And precisely because it’s fake, it’s better than a real cat: if it’s dirty, you can turn it off… It’s about human control over nature, all that stuff.>Another thing about the way you work that I find interesting is that you often work in a duo. Whereas auteurs tend to be solitaries, sister-brother couplings like the Wachowskis or the Coens are rather rare. But you’ve worked a lot with Riad Sattouf for instance.>Jérémie Périn: Yes and no, actually, it never really worked out with Riad.>Is that so?>Jérémie Périn: Yeah. We tried to do an SF series and, to tell you the point we came to, we wanted to do something like Leiji Matsumoto. But he wanted to do Yamato, and I wanted to do Harlock, so that couldn’t work out.>But I never direct in a duo. It’s actually something I can’t understand. I think it only works between brothers and sisters, like the Wachowskis, the Coens, or Farelli. But as soon as you have two separate bodies and souls, one of the personalities takes over – or there’s no personality at all, like in US animated films.>So, Mars Express is not made by the Perin/Sarfati duo? He looks a little invasive…>Jérémie Périn: He’s just the co-writer. In the end, the one who takes the decisions is me and me alone.
Just got back from the theater. I liked it a lot but the ending really puts a sour note on an otherwise great film. Partially because it's just tonally jarring, regardless of noir tropes. Glad I went to see it in the theater, loved all the things everyone else loved, but wish the ending was a bit more nuanced and a bit less...
