https://youtu.be/POneS8h1jyU?si=iAueAkf0I-xRSgP2Laika released the trailer for their new film and there's no thread?What the hell happened that not even you guys give a shit about this studio?
>>153669798Looking forward to seeing more. Coraline is still one of my favorite movies.
>>153669798>not even you guys give a shit about this studio?Coraline is an awful movie
>>153669798>eye bags and forehead lines as a kidYikes
>>153669798I’m excited, looks great on a technical
>>153671368Level*
>>153669798this looks like any other generic cgi film, I don't care if they used real stop motion to do it
>>153669798It's just a slow week, I think, personally I started to watch the trailer and stopped at the rats with nutcracker suits, looks good, that's all I needed to know I will watch it, I'm unsure what are they trying to make here, Laika's plots are 50/50 between good stuff or blunders for me
>>153669798Its /co/ which runs on bright colour/gore/fetish cartoon autismo. Serious works of art don't leave much to sperge about
aw fuck yearmakes me think of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1g1kF1D8T8s&list=PLmY2mtUvFRYZI6CZbf9V6NbJHxGXjXR3Z
>>153671697it's based on a book, I read it awhile ago so I don't remember it fully but it looks to be a mostly accurate retelling of the story
>>153671697>It's just a slow weekIt's quite fast, sadly people's priorities lay with Death Battle and Glitch.
Looks fine, but I absolutely loathe the song from the trailer. I swear I heard it in every shitty trailer montage they played at E3 (when it was still a thing)
>>153669798WE’RE PROUD TO PRESENT ON STUDIO NIKE, ANOTHER BAD MOVIE THAT NO ONE WILL SEE
>>153674088Faggot
>>153670695>>153670777duality of anon
>>153669798Is this the same plot as the Labyrinth?
>>153669798>61M views Is Laika saved?
>70 million views in a dayHoly fuck, the main Superman trailer from a year ago is at only 60M
>>153669798This looks abysmal, holy shit.
>>153676714why
>>153676558Yet absolutely no fucking discussion here so who is astroturfing this?
>>153676735Judging from the image alone, I'd say twittards. It seems all they care about is views for some particular reason.
>>153676732>17 year old girl looks like she's 45>muh quaint Pacific Northwest setting>muh indie progrock trackI'll take my (you)s, thank you very much, they're worth less than Reddit silvers.
>>153676834>>17 year old girl looks like she's 45Could be uglier >>muh quaint Pacific Northwest settingDoesn't really say anything about quality >>muh indie progrock trackThat's dream pop and its good you faggot.
>>153676834You just described Portland.
>>153677005And what a wretched place it is.
You think laika bought bots to higher the engagement views?
>>153676750This made me scroll through a few different Twitter keywords and none of the posts have this level of engagement. The most popular tweet related to Wildwood has only 5 million views (not likes), and the official trailer on Laila’s page has 1 million views.It’s gotta be coming from somewhere else.
>>153677134That's what I'm thinking.
>>153669798What the actual fuck is wrong with this threadDo these people even like animation or are just /TV/ culture war castrated refugeesIt looks gorgeous and the quality of the animation puts to shine decades of learning and mastering Stop-motion and the semi-cartoonish style inspired by Tim Burton and northern European Romanticism from 2000's high fantasy literature and cinematographyI could keep talking about the amazing composition of many shots, the light work and how detailed and credible every tiny surface and material looks but the video speaks for its selfThe mere tought of everything you are seeing in the trailer, every single object, backgrounds, cities, streets, houses, insides and props are totally tangible things that you can see and touch by yourself, all that handcrafted and paintwork put together to create small worlds makes me feel butterflies in my stomach
>>153677481I wonder how they did the rain.
>>153671152I think the eye bags might have something to do with how they animate the face.
>>153671415Yeah, at the point that they're 3d printing a new head for every single tiny variation in expression, it kind of feels like CGI with extra steps considering they pre-animated everything in CGI first in order to get every single one of those facial expressions. I think it's incredibly impressive, but it almost does a disservice to the craft when you can no longer see the hands behind the work.
>>153677580There's a whole VFX department, one of the top comments gives a shoutout.
>73 million viewsWhat the fuck? Did the son of the Nike guy bot the views? None of the reuploads can even reach 100k views.
>>153677805it's def botted
>>153677580People think they do it with VFX, but they actually do it by hand tooThey tie strings with white paint dots on them to a mechanism that moves them forward to simulate the texture and movement of water drops in rain, then use a mirror to direct that view into the visual planeIts very important that the strings match the color of the background so they can become "invisible", this is one of the reasons they only do this for night time scenes where different colors and tones crashing can be avoided hahaYou might think that VFX is used for a lot of the water animations, but they also do it by hand, VFX intervention is always kept to a minimum and reserved for final renderinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dm3vLUPHjQ
>>153669798Looks really cool!
That poodle looks hot!
>>153677805The trailer's been doing well on social media, it's just /co/ that is not interested.
>>153679060What social media nigga?Xitter’s engagement is hovering around a 100k likes, Reddit’s top post about this has 3,000 updoots, Facebook is 1k likes, Instagram is 36k likes, even Tiktok with its inflated views can’t crack 600k views on the top 10 videos.This shit is botted.
>>153671152haven't seen them pull this shit since violet from the incredibles
>>153669798This movie looks like it's going to fuck tremendously.
>>153677481I don't know anon, a lot of anons here are bitter nasty people, but I agree that it looks fantastic
>>153669798Initial reaction? It looks awesome. Peak 2010's soul. Reminds me of when those New Moon trailers were on TV all the time.
>>153672465For me it was https://youtu.be/AU5hLPAbsq8
>>153676558That's what happens when you make something good instead of slop. Based win for Laika and stop motion.
>>153676834While the Pacific NW seaside town setting is annoyingly oversaturated I can give Laika a pass since they're based in Portland and only make something original and soulful one every like 10 years
>>153677163>>153677805What am I reading?
>>153677878That's insane I love it
>>153680395wowvery cool videothanks for the rec anon>14 years agodang
>>153679675Eye bags can be cute, the forehead lines are too much
>>153674088>Not NO ONE WILL LIKEuhhh I need a drink
characters look uglywon't be watching
>>153677481The giant animal army is almost giving me Narnia vibes.
>>153669798I can already see the sheer satanism in this picture. Hope it flops so LAIKA disappears
>>153669798there were two threads yesterday
>>153670777I hope you die in a car fire
>>153677481>What the actual fuck is wrong with this threadI'm going to assume you either work for Laika or you're a paid marketer. Wildwood looks neat but I won't praise it from the teaser alone. It was never Laika's craftsmanship I wanted to see improve, it was their storytelling. I also think a lot of Wildwood discussion on /co/ fizzled out after four years of delays and guerilla marketing. I'm going to see it, but I can't help but feel most of this board is skeptical after their last three films.
>>153669798THIS IS OUR YEAR STOPMO BROS
what Prue McKeel should be wearing in wildwood, but won't
>>153676558the people yearn for claymation
>>153669798 Why is the main character so wrinkled and haggard looking, forehead lines, eye bags and all? Isn't she a child? It looks uncanny.
>>153669798it looks really good, i hope its a success
>>153670777Why don't anons realize that when there's a post for criticizing everything in existence, no one will consider YOUR takes seriously. Hot takes used to be an art, now they're indistinguishable from bots. Isn't the goal of posting to start a conversation? Do anons actually just use it as a throwaway blog, not caring if their posts get read or not? I wish I could know.
>>153677805To be fair YouTube is giving me an ad for the trailer all the time and those count as views
>>153669798>What the hell happened that not even you guys give a shit about this studio?I'll give you three answers>Box Trollsvisual clutter, tons of grey stones and brown boxesit's a kids movie grandma got on discount at Costcoit's one of those movies where it was no bodies favorite>Kubu and the two Stringsa well-done movie but is basically an art piece that doesn't have general appeal not the kind of thing you just put on for movie night with the kids>Missing Linkbe honest we all forgot this movie existsit's the The Pirates! Band of Misfits we have at home without the charm of Aardman of the mystic of LaikaAlso I'm preoccupied with the upcoming I am Frankelda coming out in June
>>153669798what was that trailer?it was like some artsy fartsy version of Narnia mixed the Labyrintham I supposed to get excited for a deep look into the human condition? an epic fantasy with battles? or an adventure of a girl going into a fairy tale world?
