A recently discovered 2017 animation test from a Rio spinoff focusing on Nico and Pedro, recreating a scene from the original film.https://vimeo.com/215985286By the way, wouldn't Jewel being the tribe chief's daughter make her a Disney princess?
>>154459194Yes, but I wish that.... no. Good animation text, but it's nothing new. If Rio 3 actually happens, PLEASE be good.
I will eventually watch Rio 2.
>>154459954Saying this as the 1 anon on /co/ who thought it was very good (beside dragging Nigel back into the story to make him secondary antagonist), you'll be fine.
Torrents in progress can give such nice cursed frames.
I will not rewatch Rio 2.I will, however, continue to delude myself with spic fanfics.
>>154459935>Human body with bird headNo wonder your bird pal is mad at you
>>154459479>implying Rio 2 wasn't good Has ANY Blue Sky sequel been good actually?
>>154462095It depends, I know people that do legitimately like Ice Age 2 and 3 (Despite it doing the "Last pair of their species fall in love and have kids only to later conveniently reveal they are not the last of their kind to avoid the implication that their family is doomed to the consequences of inbreeding")
>>154459194cute birb
>>154462095>>154460039Reminder the bird it's based off is actually extinct now
>>154459194Reminder the studio that made this also did The adventures of Buck Wild, shows what a lack of a proper budget can do.>>154464546Wronghttps://youtu.be/lXMUdoW3X_A?t=293
Blue Sky deserved better... I hate you Disney
>>154465378Nobody cared for it until it shut down
>>154461515True. Now if it was the opposite like classic harpies, then birb would approve
>>154462095I meant it as both were good, but until 3 is done there is no way of knowing if THAT one will be good.
Today I will remind them.
>>154467036>Single-handedly makes Rio 2 a telenovela
>>154467229He was voicing Blu on weekends while doing The Social Network, His own words from an interview with The Wall Street Journal:“I was in California shooting “The Social Network” and they asked if I would record this on the weekends. I read the script and loved it. It was the perfect antidote to get out of the mindset of my character in social network who was severe, and in some ways so joyless. It was fun to unwind”
>>154467412But he was doing Scott Pilgrim at the time.
>>154465751This. It was a proto Illumination in many ways.
>>154462095it's either this or ice agejust because it's better in comparison doesn't mean it's good
>>154459194The bottlecap hat is such an inspired character design choice
>>154467743unfortunately unlike illumination with minions, bluesky can't keep milking ice age with stacked voice actors
>>154462095Reminder Blu got together and had kids with the bird equivalent of an indigenous tribe's chief's hot daughter.
>>154469983All while looking like the bird equivalent of pic
>>154470000nice quads but blu is an unironic /fitlit/ gigachad>reads and understands the PHAK>carried jewel while scaling a tower with no difficulty>essentially saved the captured birds dismantling a bird smuggling cartel in the process all without knowing how to fly>clutched and saved jewel ironically on his first flight>played goyball in rio 2 and somehow carried the ball and scored despite being his first time playing
>>154471286Blu definitely scored>>154462095Now that I think about it aside from being Blue Sky’s only non Ice Age sequel it is (at least in the United States) the only numbered Blue Sky sequel.
>>154470000Hey, men can be cute too.
>>154471657That’s the point, Blu is a cute boy.
>>154467547That was Andy Samberg, dumbass
>>154471672Anon, that was obvious bait.
>>154471663He very much is.
>>154471894How old was Blu relatively speaking by the time of Rio 1 and 2?He is at least 15 in human years by 1.
>>154471960I try to avoid any "serious" discussions on cartoon animal ages. Trying to make ages "realistic" ruins the magic (and makes everyone die faster).
>>154472002Well, they are parrots who fortunately tend to have freakish lifespans for animals their size. Must be the dinosaur blood.
>>154459194>>154464657They really got close, without comparing the two most would think it was just a clip from the movie.>>154471672To be somewhat fair Blu sounds like Jesse Eisenberg is doing a Michael Cera impression (Unrelated but Neil Patrick Harris was originally going to voice him)
>>154471894Surprised they didn’t kiss in 2
>>154473104Beaks cannot really kiss, so beak boops very much count.
>>154473104lmao after blu learnt that his wife eats bugs? bet your ass he wouldn't
Do you think if they ever did more Rio films that they would've had focus on Blu's parents or something since that's oddly a topic that has never come up in either film. Also I don't care what any YouTube review cunt says, that first film is really charming and genuinely an underrated classic.
>>154473266If Blu had living parents, that would hurt the first movie.
>>154473329Probably but that didn't stop them with 2 utterly fumbling Blu and Jewel's relationship. Mind you I wouldn't even know what to do plotline wise if Blu had his parents alive since 2 has Jewel's family plus the other Blue macaws and they kinda suck besides the Aunt.
>>154473266>focus on Blu's parentsproblem is, they already did (and fumbled) that trope with rio 2 and doing it again would be unnecessary and repetitive
>>154473484Oh shit, it's you again.
BASED Blue Sky
>>154473265Lame, he still would
>>154473708Yes it's me, not sure I recall you but you've reminded me that I should get round to rewatching both films perhaps tomorrow night.
>>154473654>Unnecessary and repetitiveThe dark path of the Ice Age sequels, maybe it's good in hindsight they only did the two Rio films even if I would've liked to see more of these characters and what narratives could've been done.
>>154474601blu's beak is exclusively made for kissing harpy eagles
>>154467036>>154460905Speaking of Spics and Rio, Roberto and Blu are voiced by Mordecai and Rigby's voice actors, despite Rio 1 taking place in Minnesota and Rio de Janeiro there is a Mexican dub full of Mexican slang that does things like giving Tyler Blu Gunderson the name Tito Blu Gonzales which is weird because IIRC Linda's full name is still Linda Gunderson.
>>154473266Rio 3 was in some form of development well before Blue Sky closed and from a storyboard artist’s work it was going to focus on how the film industry’s treats animals, if Disney makes Rio 3 as long as it gets the original director of the previous 2 movies to return I don’t mind it existing since the guys that made >>154473015 can make theatrical tier animation as long as they have the necessary time and budget.
>>154475500Extra effort or not caring?
>>154477029I'd say it takes extra effort because most Latin American dubs made in Mexico -whether they include idioms or not- tend to be the same dub with only minor differences in the dialogue, whereas in Rio the two Mexican dubs are completely different even though they share the same voice cast and were made at the same time.https://youtu.be/cGIxklJjE6ghttps://youtu.be/gdsN_5O0h8Qhttps://youtu.be/88Sgh3DSb4MLikewise, the dub is an important part of why Latin Americans were the ones who started the trend of giving Blu OC girlfriends 10 years after Rio 2 came out because that movie ruined Jewel as a character.
>>154477857The leaf spider joke in Rio is still one I remember.
They were gay.
>>154478791I am wondering if their spinoff is still happening
>>154477391great songs for a bad movie
>>154459194I always hated these 2. Especially seeing fanart of them.
>>154471818He was playing into the joke. The only one taking the bait is you.
>>154471818arr jews rook same to me
>>154482159Go back to /pol/
>>154473177With how much human behavior Blu has taken from growing as a pet I could see him giving it a try before realizing beaks make it awkward
>>154482812>Browsing e621 and just seeing crap instead of kino
>>154483197I dunno, Blu looks pretty happy to me.
>>154483131Did you guys forget Jewel kissed Blu in the climax of the movie and it’s the whole reason Blu finally flies?
>>154483522She did, though sadly beaks are hard so it's a semi-kiss, really.
froge
>>154483547what would an actual bird kiss look like?
Rio 3 should be set in South Brazil.
Rio 3 should be set in Minnesota.
>>154485384>Blu returns to his original home State only to see it infested with Somalis that want to roast and eat him for Launch.In all seriousness, it would be funny if Blu met those two Geese again and they are now shocked to learn that their lame neighbor not only scored with a hot girl of his species but had kids with her.
>>154484568>>154485384Rio 3 should be set in South Minnesota.
>>154484568>>154485384>>154485645>Confused São Paulo with Saint Paul award.
>>154483512That's cause he knows he's got a treasure trove of horror to send on the Discord server
>>154484421
>>154485985gegdid you draw this, anon?
>>154486303Yes, and I suck without tons of erasing, This was done for a joke, so it's okay it's terrible.
>>154465378I would recommend AniMat’s history of Blue Sky videos, they are pretty insightful.https://youtu.be/KtLJRyPckRghttps://youtu.be/deLxe5z-8PQhttps://youtu.be/QXTIspCb4gA
>>154485985Neat
>>154474597Remember what they took from you
>>154487486/v/ros ..why did 2d animation die...
Rio was a crazy good looking movie, but the story and humor fell flat for me. Haven't seen the sequel
>>154488494
>>154487486Blu is justifiedhttps://youtu.be/Zc_tLEG1duM
>>154493556
>>154492110Takes too much time and effort for executives' tastes. And as shown by The Thing sequel (originally fully practical, got CGI'd over despite the work being done) some of the people high up in the entertainment industry prefer always using the shiniest modern thing.
>>154493703That and currently CGI despite being more expensive than 2D is relatively easy to redo for rewrites and reshoots.
>>154494842Okay, anon. I need proof that today, in 2026, CGi is more expensive than good 2D.
>>154495409Claus budget vs average Dreamworks movie budget
>>154495491Idiot. You proved nothing. How much money was ACTUALLY spent on the actual artists making the thing? If you don't have real data, go and eat dirt.
>>154492132You should watch the sequel
>how Parrot Dante is introduced
>when the confidence mask falls off
>>154496685what a bumbling faggot
>>154496685I didn't feel bad considering he practically announced he wanted to steal Blu's family if he dies
>>154497518Which is the traditional conservative way of doing things in most cultures (neither good nor bad).
>joining (((the tribe)))
>>154497552Yeah but I've got my guy Blu's corner so I don't give a shit
>>154493703It was more because it is easier for them to rewrite on the fly, like what happened to Frozen
>>154497552>>154496685Jewel should consider herself lucky she didn’t marry the guy her Father wanted her to marry the instant she came of age and she is wife to a guy as loyal as Blu is.>>154498733Remember that Frozen 2 documentary where the people involved basically admitted making the story on the fly?>>154498781I find it ironic Nigel will end the same way he started in Rio 1 but now for real.
>>154498798
>>154498798>Frozen 2
>>154499593Could you imagine him committing Atrocities in the Homelander costume while giving MCU tier quips?
>>154496324If you like Rio then despite its problems Rio 2 is decently enjoyable, just remember to watch the deleted scenes afterwards.
>>154499817>what if superman (clone) was evil>but also has randumb reddit humorhe should be fun for like 2 seconds
>>154498798juju is an unappreciative cuntshe doesn't know what she wants and constantly changes her mind about thingsand when she doesn't get what she wants she resorts to personal attacks and gaslighting
>>154501307Sounds like a typical woman to me.
>>154501988>>154501998Reminder Nigel does Sphinx Macaw face in these storyboards.
>>154501988>>154501998Oh fuck, did not know plans for 3 existed even back then.
>>154503062IIRC Rio 2’s lukewarm reception at the time (I am sure it was underwhelming but not at the Ice Age 4-5 level it has now) was the reason Rio 3 was in development hell at Blue Sky. And then again when Buck Wild released Disney did mention they were working on another main Rio installment.
>>154501035I wonder if Blu ever ate Shrimp despite those being crustaceans.
>>154483989She will return in Rio 3, right?
>>154506301
>>154506630Was Rio 2 ever released on 3D blu-ray?I know the first one was, like there is this one moment in the beach scene where Blu and Jewel are in a volleyball net that feels like it was made to be one of those “whoa! Blu and Jewel almost came out of the screen!” 3D gimmick moments.
>>154507550https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Rio-2-3D-Blu-ray/102856/^ that site is your friend
>>154506301memoryholed along with the rest of the second movie
>>154507896I used to think Nigel did not have to be in 2, "too many characters". Now I don't mind him. He is a good secondary villain who can come back as long as he realizes he needs to stop being quite that evil. I mean, he failed to do his evil thing twice, might as well stop being the villain.
>>154507575Neat, a bit sad that only the post Peanuts Blue Sky Movies are in 4K and they stopped with 3D Blu-Rays after Ice Age 5
>>154508410My heart goes out for all my 4K homies. Me though? I don't care much myself, 1920x800 (with black borders because we must go ultra wide) is still very good.
what if rio was realhttps://youtu.be/6LUVlbQ1_qQ?t=37
>>154509157That is so cringe, you cannot get the same experience by watching. You HAVE to be there.
>>154508459True, a properly encoded Blu-Ray will still look good on a 4K TV.
>>154509951If it upscales nicely. Most TVs sold today do not have a good dedicated upscaling board, so most shit looks more blurry than it should unless it's true 4K. LOOKING AT YOU LG FUCK YOU
>>154459194>Fly just like a bird >But you ARE a bird! >Oh yeah you're right, so let me fly just like a rocket then~
>>154507575>Check the Review thread>2010 Teaser>Everyone thinks Rio is an adaptation of Angry BirdsThey did get the Angry Birds Rio name right before anyone else, though.https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=142614>>154510309Why can't TVs just offer Integer Scaling/Line Multiplying, man?>>154510312I kind of miss Blue Sky despite never really caring for them as a studio.

Made it less shitty. THIS IS WHAT I WANTED TO DRAW (before failing to depict it). Blu's head is actually tilted this time. Left the pencils unerased to make it obvious you need pencils for ink sketches if you don't want garbage. Even sketches, if in ink, need pencil first.
>>154511880And forgot image, wonderful.
>>154467229Facebook guy
>>154510813And Portuguese.
>>154511133bia is my favoritegood thing she didn't get retarded genes from her mother
>>154511886Cute>>154459194I am pretty sure Blu would celebrate Independence day since he is American.
>>154511133I wonder how Rio 2 would have been if Blue Sky didn’t have the musical number with Blu and Jewel’s kids at the end of the first movie.
>>154488494Reminder https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZQdCVJir_Y would have made the movie better.>>154515291Ice Age 3 but with Macaws.
>>154515291A pointless, stupid question. Want to bump with a question, at least think of something better.
>>154517245Ok, then.What if in Max Payne 3 Max was hired to take care of Blu and Jewel and was still involved with the whole body harvesting thing?
>>154517384A slightly better plot than MP3, which is just a weaker version of already existing movies about corruption in South America..... while shoving Max in there because he's in the title.
>>154517642It would just be Tom and Jerry in an unrelated movie but with Blu and Jewel shenanigans while Max is depression incarnate and kills more people than the average GTA player on a rampage.Then in the final scene after the whole disaster in the airport he does have a smile as he sees Blu fly while carrying and injured Jewel.
>>154518878I'd watch it. Won't like it, but....... I'd watch it.
>>154518859>>154518880That's like, more Blu torture than in the final film.
>>154519584I wonder if the writers just hated Blu because the entire film is just him getting the short end of the stick and the his only win he gets is still heavily not on his favor, hopefully Rio 3 has him and his Family visit Minnesota and Jewel has to adapt to a setting her Husband has lived in for his entire life.
>>154519584>>154520426all of it was a build up to this scene (or at least supposed to)
>>154520771The moment this scene leaked it changed the Rio fan base forever.
>>154520771I am SO glad that was thrown out.
>>154469983>>154470000I like that the guy that colored pic just made Blu and Jewel white and is a white right wing Brazilian when the guy that did the original drawings is an Asian fujo guy whose Human Rio AU illustrations are for a lame Blu x Male OC story. - >>154521067 - And the worst part is that we will never get Bia, Carla, or Tiago despite them debuting in the first movie, or any of the Rio 2 cast.
>>154521127
too bad the bird's they're based on have gone extinct in the wild
>>154521274Not anymore thanks to incest.
>>154513579>I am pretty sure Blu would celebrate Independence day since he is American.
>>154521067It's odd that in the credits of the first movie, two of the kids had Blu's feather colors, while the other had Jewel's instead of the other way around in Rio 2 with Tiago for Blu and Bia & Carla for Jewel. Then again, their designs in the fridge photo when they hatched are more consistent with their current designs than with their "Real in Rio" reprise designs, so this shows that they were indeed redesigned for Rio 2.
>>154521569There is a tiny chance Blu and Jewel are half-siblings
>>154521569
>>154521127>even as humans, blu cheats on juju
Son, I am disappoint.
>>154525624These are all on the Bluray, right anon?
>>154492018I could never forget...
>>154525738no, I found these on the rio 2 wiki then I downloaded the videos on vimeoafter a few digging, the storyboard your replying to is made by Randeep Katari as it was posted on his portfolio sitehttps://www.randeepk.com/rio-2-unpluggedthis, however is made by Natalie Wetzig, same as above
>>154524533Blu got groomed, AnonAt least with the OC birds he had time to realize Rio 2 Jewel sucks as a wife
>>154526566Reminds me of https://youtu.be/dz13HGmQnl8 and https://youtu.be/VSFYc-L527A?t=41
>>154526774Meant https://youtu.be/66SBdQ5x-o0 for the first one.
>>154523337The third thing Jewel says to Blu is that he is an American.
>>154521569gross!!
>>154521127>>154521139>>154469983>>154470000How did he do it?
>>154528049Big Bird Cock
>>154459194Wow! 2017!
>>154510312I guess you could say it’s Hot Wings
>>154526566Sad. Though having complete storyboards, including rejected ones (thank goodness some of those were) is not the norm when it comes to bonus features.
>>154530885It depends but the fact after these storyboards were publicly released they revived the Rio fan base after 10 years without an installment (>>154520771 alone created a trend of Latin Americans giving Blu OC bird girlfriends because they disliked how Jewel treats him in the movie) is quite impressive, and even >>154521127 became quite a popular tweet because the original Black and White image made Human Blu look white despite the original author’s previous comments and colored artwork showing that he is Indigenous but since he was raised in Minnesota his skin color is dark (>>154470000) but not to the same level as Human Jewel (>>154469983)
>>154531240Well, a few select awful storyboards "reviving the fanbase" by making 100 people angry is not exactly...... a positive thing.
>>154531555well if the second movie was good in the first place we would already have a third installment, maybe more
>>154532169NTA but the only reason Rio 3 never happened under Blue Sky was because it entered development hell (>>154501988 and >>154501998 are storyboards of what the movie could have been at one point of development), and poor critic/audience reception did not stop Ice Age from getting sequels until 5 underperformed (In comparison, Rio 2 did just as well as the original, a bit less domestically, but in total a bit more than the first one), and we are still getting Ice Age 6 (And Disney mentioned that they were working on another main installment in the Rio Franchise and the after mentioned Nico and Pedro spinoff back when The Adventures of Buck Wild released).
Even though not participated in the thread too much it's nice to see an active Rio thread since honestly I think it's a neat little film series even with my gripes with the 2nd film.
>>154532378>ice agedoesn't mean anythingthey've been making ice age sequels before rio was even a concept>disney rumorsnothingburger
>>154532169It's almost like you want to control the conversation and rewrite history. "If I and my friends don't like it, then NO ONE can like it!" Furry movies that are not TOO original get memoryholed fast, that happens to everybody. Next thing you will claim is Treasure Planet was shit because it did not make much money.
>>154532420I bump it for (you), anon :3
>>154528446That's not how bird biology works!>>154533118Blu and Jewel are a cute couple
>>154533524>That's not how bird biology works!Cartoon bird biology does not have to be 1 to 1, have a little imagination!
>>154533103what is you even waffling about schizo?all I'm saying is that if rio 2 was good in the first place then bluesky would've been confident and already pursued it further as a franchise along with ice ageshockingly they didn't
>>154526530Webms that'll make you the coolest rapist in the favelas.
>>154534172You're the schizo, schizo.
>>154534209Isn't >>154526530 from Ferdinand?
>>154534549Jewel's father is right to look him like that since not only is Toothpaste toxic to birds but Blu doesn't have any teeth.
>>154534262Yes. If I had a cent for each time someone put a sexy feral femgoat in a cartoon, I would have 2 cents.
>>154534651Hey, beaks need love too.
>>154534172I still find it funny that Rio is the only non Ice Age Blue Sky movie to get a sequel.
>>154534819>The Peanuts Movie 2>sex ed class>Patty makes eyes at Chuck>*blushes*
>>154534819It is a fun fact that's not advertised, but apparently Blue Sky has an agreement with their investors, to keep making Ice Age sequels as long as they make money, and on the side make whatever movies they want. So a sequel to Rio was the one they wanted to make more than most.
>>154535287that sounds interestingcan you elaborate more on the agreement with investors? first time hearing this
>>154535287>>154535506Not sure how true that is but I believe it, Blue Sky's top 5 highest grossing movies were Ice Age 2-4 and the 2 Rio movies (All unadjusted for inflation), and on each of those years they were released, the Ice Age sequels were the highest grossing animated movies and were consistently in the top 5 highest grossing movies of the entire year, and Ice Age 3 was the second highest grossing animated movie ever only behind Shrek 2 for a while.
>>154535287*had an agreement>one fucking letter
>>154535506I have 0 sources aside from a cartoon reviewer who is a big fan of Blue Sky, who did his own research and claimed it was so. Considering he had no reasons to lie, I just accepted that as fact.
>>154535627...It wasn't Animat who told you that, was it?
>>154535716No, ThatFellowInTheCoat (totally an original name). I stopped watching him the moment I realized he decided to be on the side of censorship (if this hurts feelings nobody can say it). That whole>we must maximize happiness and minimize sadness by any means necessary and if X offends anyone it must be bannedis a movement I'd rather burn to the ground.
If Disney released Rio 3 in theaters in Japan then it would be the first time the series would get a theatrical release there.>>154533549I’d rather have Blu and Jewel mate closer to how real birds would.>>154535757And I thought Animat’s TDS creeping to his animation discussion videos was bad.
>>154536227I never thought I'd see the day TDS sufferers would accidentally be proven right. Yet I am living in those times RIGHT NOW. Life is funny like that. Not defending libtards, just saying they were right about one thing... by accident.
>>154533118Cheers, honestly Blu is genuinely a great protagonist and probably my fave part of both films besides the music and the beautiful birb animation.
>>154537046I think people do not praise the score enough because normies cannot listen to music with a voice saying somethinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIP8gHf0dsghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laCN_O9J7d4
>>154537142*cannot listen to music withOUT a voice saying somethingFUCK
>>154537142>>154537147Tbh I was referring to the vocal tracks ironically but the background orchestral tracks are also beautifully done since it's John Powell who always brings his A game to animated films.

I never liked Rio. That cute white lady got together with the brown goofball instead of someone cool, like me.
>>154537641>>154538274>Migration enjoyerBASEDAlso I am pretty sure that since Jewel's name in Spic Spanish is Perla (Pearl), and Jade in Brazilian Portuguese the author deciding to just translate her original English name as a joke got the pic attention from outside the Spanish speaking fandom since it is now the user's second most liked post.

>>154548177Okay, so it was kind of sort of related. Keep in mind I never complained. You really hate Rio 2, I fucking get it. I just don't. And if that makes me a peasant of garbage taste, fine, think what you want.

This is a man with a birdsona. Which he posts on his Birdaffinity account.
I am so fucked up.....
>>154548597Honestly maybe I'll be more positive on a rewatch even if doesn't change my usual complaints I've made but I do think the fact that it made artists give Blu new oc wives with oddly good designs really funny and it's why even ended up rewatching the film after 13 or so years of having not seen it. Anycase I'll try to ease up on ragging on the film if that makes you feel better since I'm sure I've seen you in a thread or two before.
>>154549642Much respect. And even your mind will NOT change, you will be still better than 88.8% of anons on this board who don't watch cartoons, but just look at pictures in threads and will tell you if they like or don't like the designs.

A little shitpost as a thank-you for all anons who kept the thread going for so long. You're awesome!

>>154562030Little kid or special needs adult?
>>154562078mossad or disney shill?
Good......... day, thread. Sleep tight!
>>154481108Why?
>>154561920Purty Burdy~
>>154563654Considering how long it has been since Rio 2 will Rio 3 have them in their late teens/early adulthood?I do remember one spic fan story where Blu did abandon the Macaws and after a long time skip his children who are now young adults went through a Journey through Brazil to find him.
>>154562664That anon has a strong distain for homosexual avians.(that's gay birds by the way)
>>154564238Rescuers 1 and 2 are 20 years apart, yet only a few years pass in-universe. Incredibles 1 and 2 are...... what........ 13 years apart? And 5 seconds happens between movies, story-wise.
>>154564336I know that when Blue Sky was working on Rio 3 it still had Blu and Jewel's children as kids, I guess it's because from Ice Age 3 to 4 Manny and Ellie's daughter goes from a newborn to a teenager.
>>154564395I honestly don't care if plans change or change the same. As long as Carlos Saldanha is left alone to be in control.
>>154564504I know the guy that did The Adventures of Buck Wild is doing Ice Age 6, was he involved in the franchise beforehand?Is Carlos Saldanha even employed at Disney?>>154564600Surprised Crab Man did not care for Nigel, that being said, him disliking Blu and Jewel's romance for it being "Forced Heterosexuality" is the stupidest excuse I have ever heard, just say it wasn't convincing and felt forced.
>>154564653(don't take this as aggression towards yourself) I don't care for Crab Man's existence. If he believes in the church of Cultural Marxism, then I will not carry his body when he gets hit by a car.
>>154564653Oh, and Carlos does not have to be employed at Disney. As per industry rules, he can be temporarily hired for 1 project only, and then let go.
Grumpy Dad Bird trims his head feathers to look like that. This is canon until explicitly said on-screen to be otherwise.
>>154566145Seems it isFor nowA neat detail is that both movies' credits end with Blu and Jewel's feathers, as to show their bond.
>>154557422Hi, Bob
If there is a Rio 3, how likely is it that it will have a Kids' Choice Awards video like the first two ( https://youtu.be/ocHyclJL9xg , https://youtu.be/Y3aYCvYQyhc ), or an Angry Birds collaboration like an Angry Birds Friends tournament, an Angry Birds 2 event, or even the return of Angry Birds Rio with new Rio 3 levels?I know it's 0 but let me dream.https://youtu.be/vAUOPHqx5Gs
>>154564653>caring about an internet celebrity's opinionholy shit nigger do betterthere is a reason why you watch the film then form your own opinionmost of these "cartoon reviews" discourse is just the reviewers poorly detailing how the movie's events went making sarcastic remarks in the process (therefore the movie is bad)

>>154574046I...... sounded like Blu, didn't I.....
>>154573263I like that this scene foreshadows that Blu is strong enough to carry Jewel with little to no problem, Linda was right in that he should take his vitamins.

She is talking about this thread dying. Which never happened before.
>>154582478I genuinely think that if Blu didn’t try to kiss Jewel (which to be fair he only came to Rio to mate with her and then go back to Minnesota and probably thought the humans already told her that they had found her a mate) and explained why he was there then maybe he would have convinced her to at least listen to him even if she would not like that the first male of her species she meets since she was a chick is only there to mate with her.
I'm impressed this thread has stayed up for so long, the last few Rio threads I've seen have sadly usually been very brief
>>154582562If we all had 100% hindsight, there would be no conflict or misunderstanding ever. And that is just unrealistic as fuck.
How the fuck is this thread still going?
>>154582771People like the Rio movies enough to discuss them.>>154582660Beauty
>>154582564If 1 or 2 (or 3) anons put their minds together, there is nothing we cannot do!
>>154582783I can see that. Even if they weren't always good, Blue Sky movies had something that other animation studios didn't, and it's hard for me to describe. Same thing with Fox movies in general pre-buyout.
>>154582817I can describe it anon, I thought about it a LOT. Blue Sky movies show the good and the bad side of animators running the asylum. Too many characters, too many sidekicks, too many side plots, often very unfocused. The team does not want to let go of ideas for scenes and cut them, instead everything stays in. But it CAN work sometimes, and when it does you get a Rio or a Peanuts Movie.
>>154582899Fox movies (pre-buyout) I feel were a little more earnest than other major film studios in general because they took more risks. Disney and Universal feel similar because chased trends so much.
>>154582899I would also put Robots despite its many flaws, it’s an endearing film that always makes me feel comfy even if many of its jokes derail it.
>>154537641>>154538274https://x.com/RonKuar/status/2075103506910925144>>154582899I think half the reason The Peanuts Movie works so well is that aside from it being very respectful to its source material, the Schulz estate is very protective of the IP.>>154582817>>154582939You remind me of how both Ice Age and The Peanuts Movie also had official Family Guy collabs.https://youtu.be/f6izE_bg99khttps://youtu.be/oBbv1AtnAHIhttps://youtu.be/hppKT--NY94There was an EmpLemon video on the Simpsons where he explains that Fox's main target demographic were the demographic outside of the General Audiences, even if TV and Film Fox are very different it does show that Fox thrived on niche content.
>>154583214Oh yeah, Robots is le good. Excellent message and ending. Only flaw is too much Robin Williams. Genie was a lightning in a bottle, cannot repeat that.
>>154582899Blue Sky wasn't perfect but any of their films that weren't the Ice Age sequels after 3 felt sincere and like they actually wanted to make something fun for everyone. Like there's something about Blue Sky that I enjoy that I think Illumination as a comparison just lacks.
>>154584317Ironically Chris Meledandri mentioned that when he left Fox to fund Illumination he wanted their movies to have more physical comedy aspect since Ice Age 2 and its sequels were incredibly popular because them having more visual-focused storytelling gave them international appeal.
>>154584739Well, THAT was achieved at least.
>>154467067I wonder why?
>>154585547In case u r srs, & 4 real, the answer is cause of the almost-love triangle and relationship drama. That's the bread and butter of any telenovela. Well that, and "will they or won't they?"
>>154460905This movie sucks
Ahem......... FUCK the reds!
Rio 2 felt like the set up for a NTR plot and I hate that
https://x.com/LuntaliE/status/2072483238560334242>>154586256I agree.Movie would improve tenfold if they actually give a harpy eagle for Blu, no?>>154587012Poor little Juju, almost felt bad for her.ALMOST.
>>154587012Don't be surprised if Roberto is not in Rio 3 or has no speaking lines since Bruno Mars is expensive.>>154479659Disney did mention still making it 5 years ago so it probably depends on if Ice Age 6 is successful.>Poor little Juju, almost felt bad for her.Rio 1 Jewel did not deserve it.
>>154587361>Don't be surprised if Roberto is not in Rio 3 or has no speaking lines since Bruno Mars is expensive.Honestly, since the old Blue Sky did not like to get rid of characters, if the same core team is making Rio 3 under Disney, maybe no Bruno Mars Parrot means more room to breathe for NEW characters. Or they can hire a soundalike, but that is apparently a haram practice in movies.
>>154587401Too many characters bloating the cast is a big problem for animated movies, TS3 was right to discard most of Andy's other Toys for the sake of its plot, and it still has the problem of important characters doing nothing by TS4 and TS5.

>>154590970I know Tiago, Bia, and Carla’s were redesigned for Rio 2 but I am pretty sure that pic is probably Baby Blu unless the model was reused for Blu and Jewel’s offspring

>>154593413Surprised Blue Sky never (to my knowledge) tried to make anything Rio related like a short or a TV promotion for the 2016 Olympics aside from having Beautiful Creatures in one of the ceremonies and (unrelated) Angry Birds Rio updates.

Jewel is such a cunt. imagine if gender roles were reversed
>>154594923If the gender roles were reversed it would be a return to the based conservative western values, like the "return to tradition" larpers want. Values where the man makes the decision, and the woman shuts up and follows him. What? Expected a different response?
https://x.com/LuntaliE/status/1789468043300807004>>154594923I can't imagine such queer timeline.How else could Blu meet his one and only should he be a gaslighting, manipulative, potentially cheating cunt especially knowing he and his family are not what remains of his kind anymore?
