Well it's got that going for it at least.

I've seen it, the visuals are nice but the pacing is just abhorrent, worse than the Mario Galaxy Movie and Zootopia 2. It just moves and moves and moves for 90 minutes straight and never takes a break. It gave me a headache and ruined the more impactful scenes. I swear family movies didn't used to be like this.

yeah i didn't think that a movie about two young adults reconnecting was going to really capture the attention of families with young kids. /co/ mocked befre when it leaked but at least it was about kids. and-- as someone who doesn't mind this sort of thing-- it just feels like another generic entry in the "Asian-American makes an animated movie about generational trauma" cinematic universe.

>>155585893
it's getting good reviews

The plot summary from having seen it, for anyone who cares:
>open in 1990 Philippines, girl named Jo gives a presentation about the mythic island of Nakali and its resident demon Manang
>bully mocks her story, prompting Jo to attack him and land herself in the principal's office
>she meets Raissa, who got in trouble defending her, and they become friends
>Jo's grandma tells them more stories about Nakali before eventually dying of old age, because of fucking course she does, it's one of THOSE movies
>timeskip, Rai announces she's leaving for Caltech, leaving Jo upset
>on the night before her departure, the two find a magical sand dollar that opens a portal to Nakali
>they jump through and wake up the next morning with no memory of what happened, with Rai inexplicably sporting a pair of Manang wings
>they meet Raww the furry bait were-dog thing, and are attacked by Manang who wants her stolen wings back
>the girls search for a way home, encountering a parade of surreal Filipino creatures
>they meet a merman named... Mermahn, and find out the sand dollar is secretly being kept elsewhere
>Jo and Rai discover they had actually saved a village from Manang the previous night, with Rai having stolen Manang's wings during the fight

>>155586078
>eventually the truth comes out: Batiba, a memory eater, has been manipulating them and is the true big bad, while Raww was working for her
>Batiba reveals that Jo herself hid the sand dollar so Rai could never leave, causing both girls to lose their memories
>Manang is acting out because she too lost her memories to Batiba
>Rai feels betrayed and ends their friendship, Manang attacks and reclaims her wings
>Jo sacrifices her friendship bracelet to Batiba so Rai can return home, accepting that their friendship has run its course (hamfisted scene)
>Rai changes her mind and returns to Nakali, enters Jo's fading memories and reconciles with her by admitting how much Jo changed her life
>Batiba returns the memories, Manang stops attacking people, and everyone conveniently resolves their various betrayals and grudges
>years later, Jo is a successful graphic novelist who has turned the entire adventure into a comic
>she and Rai remain friends and make another trip to Nakali, because apparently neither of them learned their lesson about how fucking dangerous the place is
>the end

The difference between friends and dykes is that they’re entirely self-centered. Dykes don’t think “how can I help her family?” Because they don’t have husbands and children and consider their family lines evil homophobes.

Even if this film is inspired by friendships of the animators, those friendships are heavily socially-constructed according to gay culture and so shares the selfishness, ugliness, mentally ill vibes, etc

>>155587315

You didn't point out where i'm wrong you're just scrolling down the whole catalog of NPC quotes

This is pretty much the same thing that's happening with Western games.
The budget is 80M. The budget for Spirited Away was 20M, and that's still super expensive for an anime movie.
Even if this is a really good movie, as the reviews say, it will be considered a flop, and they probably won't make movies like this for a while.
There must be a way to make animated movies that generate modest revenue on a far smaller budget while steadily gaining more fans.

It matters that the creators make something they are proud of in case no one else responds to it. That’s how it should be anyway.
>You need it to have a market.
The only market they need is me. I am usually the only one in my theater for niche animation, so they should stop wasting their time chasing schools of fish and spend more time chasing whales like me. Alas, this movie takes something that should be niche to millennial CalArts women and furries, and sands away personality so it can pretend to be a lamer Kpop Demon Hunters. This is why I am excited for Wildwood, because PG-13/2.5 hour runtime is a sign they are not pretending to want mainstream recognition.

>>155587163

Even Laika have put out a complete dud of a "who wants to watch this?" with Missing Link. There's neither audience appeal (think there were 4 bigfoot/yeti films that year) or any real artistic value in it.

Even if you don't care about mainstream appeal, that still doesn't mean you should hyper-limit your audience. Arthouse or blockbuster, it's always a problem to go "I'm making this film for 2nd Generation Chinese girls who grew up Toronto in the 90s and hate their mum"

I think Missing Link was them attempting a generic audience-friendly adventure, they just failed at it. I’m hoping Wildwood is them recognizing they made that mistake, and if these things aren’t going to get audiences we might as well go in the other direction.

I agree about this specific movie, but there’s a genuine appeal for artists “tricking” a passion project into getting a Hollywood greenlight. I would do it. Box office is a flashy, short-sighted revenue stream, but a lot of stuff that has longevity are things like Nightmare before Christmas or Kpop Demon Hunters (to use a streaming-era example) that became much bigger cash cows than the stuff that made more its opening weekend.
