Had a rewatch of Titan A.E. on the weekend and I was wondering if there's any recent high concept sci-fi akin to it?
>>
>>218627781
I also second this
>>
>>218627781
No. Movies like that aren't gritty and realistic enough for modern audiences.
>>
>>218627781
I'm not sure if I've seen this or not. I mix it up with Treasure Planet and another one.
>>
>>218627880
Iron Giant or Atlantis?
>>
>>218627781
Zootpia 2, Goat, Hoppers

This movie was tight as fuck. An utter shame it flopped and is still widely unknown to this day.

I watched Life (2017) the other day just hoping for a decent Alien knock off, but it was so strange. The characters were completely idiotic, the horror was insanely cruel and sadistic, and it had such an anti-human perspective. It was like the whole movie was engineered to deliver the message to the audience: Humanity is stupid and deserves to die in the most cruel way imaginable. I think the reason why movies suck now is because they're not made to entertain, they're made to justify philosophies. And since most Hollywood people are out of touch, naive, and retarded, their philosophies suck.

>>218627781
This would be better if it didn't lazily recycle the animation style from Anastasia
>>
>>218627781
Is this any good?
>>
>>218630470
Complete shit
>>218630670
Life (17) was unwatchable. 100% agree
>>
>>218631086
Not really.
Fun concept, but heavily bogged down by Don Bluth's inability to keep a well paced story or develop characters. It's contemporary competitors are treasure planet, iron giant, and Atlantis, all of which severely mog it.
>>
>>218627781
I read the book for Project Hail Mary.
That'll probably scratch your itch for "Human goes to space to save humanity".

>>218631181
>>218630670
Cool starfish alien though
>>
>>218631432
I agree, it was pretty cool visually. Monsters shouldn't be all-powerful though, it kind of ruins the stoy. Even Cthulu was beaten by an old wooden boat.
>>
>>218631432
It stopped being cool the moment it grew into a starfish, everyone became retarded and the monster became Chucky

All excerpts posted here were godawful and the trailer was cringe

Decent sci-fi movie but weird bad ending.

Typical French writing.

>>218627781
wtf, i wanted to make this thread, i desperately need to watch some scifi now

recently watched
Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025)
rating - watchable

also watched one oldie that i skipped
Cowboys & Aliens (2011)
rating - also watchable, could be even better if now for some stumbles, i took extended version and i think that was a mistake

rewatched
Brazil (1985)
still don't like it, tho i love gilliam, can't stand pryce or his character

also rewatched
John Carter (2012)
still love it, soothes my soul

Well yeah, you're on 4chan.

Treasure Planet

>>218631831
I do, sometimes

>>218627781
Watch Neon Genesis Evangelion series

Dredd 2012

I quite enjoyed Prospect (2018). Felt like a video game movie.
>>
>>218632386
all modern movies feel like videogames
funnily enough, all modern games feel like movies (at lest the ones with budget)
And I hate it

>>218630493
>>218630552
>>218630612
god I forgot how jank this movie looked
it's like Bluth looked at what Disney was doing with using CG to augment complex scenes but forgot that the whole point is to make it all blend together via art direction which Titan AE had none of
>>
>>218632514
yeah but that's different.
>>
>>218627781
please watch upgrade
>>
I owned the Titan A.E. soundtrack on compact disc.
>>
I don't care that this movie has its faults. The sequence and tension of the earth evacuation really stuck with me as a child. This movie is certifiably /comfy/ in my book, along with Iron Giant.
>>
>>218632582
I found the the general idea and the fight scenes interesting/promising, but the setting and beginning were trite, and the ending was extremely abrupt and half assed
>>
>>218631731
>>218627781
I'd say The Expanse tv/book series is something you'd like. The aliens in there are comparable to Titan AE's Drej in that they're an existential threat to humanity and the rest of life in the galaxy but also overwhelmingly advanced technologically. They also like to use devices to terraform solar systems to support their life
>>
>>218632886
The movie is "not quite paradise but it feels like home"

THIS IS NOT A WORD.

The word you want to use is IRONICALLY or COINCIDENTALLY.

ENGLISH.

Learn it.

>>218633426
Memories probably comes closest, but it is also from 1995
>>
>>218633534
This is some good shit.

>>218633238
butchered the comic book
>>
>>218632234
Sure. But first I need you to establish what qualities good writing has.
>>
>>218633498
"Funnily" became a word after "funny" became etymologically distant from the word "fun" and became synonymous with "odd" or "humorous" as opposed to "exciting" and "enjoyable".
"Funnily" is every bit as correct as "oddly". It's the same logic by which "funnest" and "funniest" do not mean the and thing.
Get rekt queer

Not a movie, but a canadian puppet show called Brats Of The Lost Nebula

You should at least watch the intro scene, even haters admit it's kino.

this would be much better movie with other leads

>>218634341
Wrong. Funnily has been recognized as a word since the 1800s. However the way you use it is technically incorrect. The definition of Funnily means "strange" or peculiar (with a negative connotation). But as other anon pointed out, you are using funnily as a synonym for coincidentally, ironically, or surprisingly. Which is technically incorrect.
>>
>>218637218
>Funnily means "strange' or peculiar
As far as I can tell, he's saying it's odd, and even specifying it with negative connotation, that modern games resemble movies.
You're trying to establish a mutual exclusion from with other words that suitably express similar or overlapping moods that doesn't exist. Nothing about what he said it incorrect, technical or otherwise.
>>
>>218627781
Definitely not rebel moon, shit was supposed to be the next big franchise, beyond disappointing
>>
>>218634341
This entire post is false. You are following the same online trends as people who use the word literally incorrectly.
>>
>>218637427
Exactly. It's a bunch of zoomers who want to co-opt words and use them incorrectly. Then we grandpa anons who want to appear trendy and copy the zoomers.

Doon bluth knocking it outta the park for the first half
Sadly the last act of the movie is rushed and needed an actual villain so they made the captain suddenly hitler for no reason.

This isn't an "online trend". The word has been used in similar fashion for over a hundred years.
