Where did the idea that leftists were the only ones who made good art come from? This was the most hollow, cliché garbage with.Essentially a hipster Narnia/Labrinth ripoff with a white woman who wants to kill a baby
>>223929957>Where did the idea that leftists were the only ones who made good art come from?the empirical reality that we all share
Because all good art criticizes or pushes a boundary, and transgression is purely a leftist feat.
>>223929957>white woman who wants to kill a babyThis IS a leftist film.
>>223930010Actually the white woman is meant to be the villain.
>>223930003Yet the best fantasy writers of all time are still conservative.
>>223929957Travis Knight isn't particularly political and the book was written by some literally who indie musician and his wife with no "political positions" segments in their Wikipedia profiles. I would say this is just normalfag core not left / right. And the woman who wants to kill a baby is a villain anon.
>>223930091It was clearly made by leftists whether or not it was political. The Portland sequence practically made it look like some gay leftists utopia
>>223930124Anon.... that's just how Portland looks.
>Leftist>Bandit king is black
>>22393000399% of all art created was made by people who would be considered right wing by todays standards
>>223930124Portland's right wing
>>223930217That's kinda because being left wing by modern standards was conceptually impossible for most of history.
>>223930091Travis knight is woke as hell
>>223930249Reddit tells me he is a union busting chud.
There was nothing political at all about the flick in OP you deranged /pol/troons.
>>223930235Is that supposed to disprove the point?
>>223930286There’s literal faggotry
It's the best film of the year :)
>>223930235Maybe that was a good thing
>>223930010>thinking depiction equals endorsementhorseshoe theory
>>223930286I'm a chud. As soon as they mention they/them pronouns in regards to a three year old boy, show dudes kissing and have the parents a bunch of hipster fags it gets a little political for me
i haven't been to wildwood in awhile. i should go back sometime.
>>223930630you lack media literacy
>>223930637Are you a fucking shut in?
>>223929957Curtis basically stole the film. You're an idiot.
Did they really think saying “animation is cinema” was viable marketing
>>223929957This movie gives me the sense they were so focused on the visuals they forgot the story part and just did the bare minimum to justify the visuals. Paranorman and Caroline had actual personality to them.
>>223930217completely meaningless statement without the context
>>223930672Yes, I don't like people
>>223929957proper woke leftists that want to ban shit can't make art because they aren't open enough. but cons can't make art for the exact same reason
>>223929957Uoh! Hag, erotic!!!
>>223929957>but but remember coraline?Give it up already, shit, coraline wasn't even that great.
>>223930217those artists were not priests however
>>223930852I'm surprised that they can still lean on that after Neil Gaiman being thoroughly cancelled. I guess people forgot that he wrote it or something.
>>223930928Who is Neil Gaiman and why should I care?
>>223930969A victim of the me too movement
>>223929957I thought the idea was that these kids were just really really fucking tired. I mean look at their eyes
>>223929957Oh boy, THIS kind of thread, yay
>>223930091Colin meloy and his wife are both die hard radical left wing progressives.
>>223929957Book was probably written by AI.
>>223930761>CarolineAhem.
>>223929957>leftistsHollywood is liberal, not leftist.
>>223930764Yes most words and phrases are meaningless if you arbitrarily take away context
>>223931566covert leftists that understand they need to hide their power levels by larping as an ignorant liberal while they shift the overton window to a position where they can all just be openly marxists
>>223931645You're retarded.
>>223930217
The actual issue is it's using the aesthetic and feeling of Portland when it was majority white yet inserting browns everywhere and the bandit king and all of those characters are white in the book, as is Prues mom. In fact the movie differs massively from the book. You fucking retards. This is yet another "let's make a red headed character a black" movie
>>223930003unfortunately my dear troon, problematic white men proved to be load-bearing
Decent animation but I don't want to give money to Portlanders who actively wish White people were all dead or slaves to their ideology.
>>223932078What kind of mongoloid does all of zero research into a movie that is literally not rated for children before taking their children to it only to be outraged that they’re so retarded that they took them to a movie that isn’t for kids? It’s very clearly not a little kids movie, that’s obvious from first glance.
>>223929957The studio is owned by the child or a right wing billionaire who is a stop motion autist. All the guy cares about is making very pretty stop motion movies. I'm not sure he has a political ideology beyond stop and motion.
>>223932229Considering how long this sort of thing has gone on, most parents evidently.
>>223932229Its not true lol
>>223932229>expecting amerigoys to act like humans
>>223932229>5IQ parent with 5IQ spouse walk into movie theater with 5 IQ children>what movie shall we see today?>oh let us go to the animated movie since all animated movies are for kids>:(
>>223931566>Satanic, not satanic
>>223929957Silent majority. A lot of artists used to have independent thoughts and a lot of people in general didn't talk politics in public. Now there's the whole pressure of using your platform or whatever and if you don't say what the loudest group wants to hear they'll try to destroy you in the public eye, even if that means you don't say anything at all. It's all bullshit, I just want to watch movies that are interesting.
>>223932187the person who wrote the book is literally a left wing radical progressive
>>223932326thisI said it here>>223931645but yours is simpler
>>223929957they put ai slop in theatres?
>>223932524they've literally spent the last 16 years working on this
>>223932229I dunno maybe Jeremy Jahns who was shocked at how hardcore it was too? This dude is a 2 million subscribed movie critic and got surprised, what will a parent do.The movie just looks like a sequel to Coraline and supposedly this is one of the most violent stop motion if not THE most violent movie of all time.
>>223932524I think the movie looks pretty mediocre but you are absolutely singlehandedly lowering the collective IQ of this board by a measurable margin.
>>223932589What the fuck is this gibberish
>>223932078lol
>>223930124>>223929957>>223930010I mean this is what I’ve been saying since the teaser dropped and showed current day Portland. They just cant help but have groomer shit in the kids animation. It was always going to be trash because of it. The infection causes disease and rot.
>>223930672
>>223932800the movie does have a joke where a kid calls himself a pedophile and some people in the theater laughed at that
>>223932229>>223932698>animated film for kids>include terrifying imagery >zomg how dare you not DO YOUR RESEARCH then ask for a refund???
>>223930658I remember they had some plush of a fry mascot when I was tiny and I still want it like an autismo
>>223932880Ah yes modern messaging
>>223932326>>223932511Fuck off, IQlets.
>>223932881It's rated PG-13.
>>223932881Counterpoint: Kids can handle this sort of things and we are overly sensitive to what should and shouldn't be in a kids movie. This isn't ideological political stuff this is basic Grimms Fairytale type content
>>223932914to be fair its not literally a pedophile joke but I'm quite confident thats what they were going for
>>223932932>ideological political stuffBut that's also in the movie. It's a film for no one really
>>223932968This
>>223932968the novel was made by an mkultra multi-generational satanist so its going to be riddled with masonic easter eggs and social engineering propaganda Outside of that. The quality of the stop motion was quite good.
>>223929957>leftists, white woman, etcThis is a really miserable way to look at art, or at almost anything for that matter. I enjoy lots of things that were created by people who I don't align with politically/socially.Wildwood is a deeply beautiful and soulful and special film. It's also heavily flawed but it's so stunning and engrossing that I didn't care at all about those flaws until well after leaving the cinema.>>223932078>>223932229>>223932932It's genuinely inappropriate for young children, and honestly the advertising and art style look so kid-friendly that I can easily understand people missing the age rating and making a mistake.Older kids are going to love it and I hope their parents aren't too overprotective these days. I know it would have blown my fuckin mind at that kind of age, would have been my favourite movie for years.
>>223933608>I enjoy lots of things that were created by people who I don't align with politically/socially.No you don't
>>223933639First examples that come to my head...I love the song "Borders" by MIA even though I believe in the exact opposite of its message (I want drastically reduced immigration and a complete freeze on accepting refugees). I love Ender's Game even though Orson Scott Card is a miserable hateful asshole.
>>223930064And who would they be?
>>223932881>animated film for kidsFalse logic to assume that just because it's animated that it's made for kids. It's Sausage Party all over again, and many other such cases prior as well. I genuinely believe that people who ignorantly take their kids to age inappropriate things are terrible parents.
>>223933958george lucas
>>223933998>Calling George Lucas one of the best fantasy writers of all timeHell of a leap there, but even if he were he is best friends with Spielberg and Kathleen Kenndy. He is not conservative.
>>223930006>Because all good art criticizes or pushes a boundaryThis isn't even true.
>>223934014>the man who spawned one of the most successful fantasy film franchise and merchandise industry isn't one of the best fantasy writers of all time
>>223931566There is no difference between the two
>>223930235And now that it's possible, art started to suck
>>223934144>Star Wars>FantasyIt's scifi you illiterate shit.
>>223933996It's nothing like Sausage Party. For long parts of its runtime it's actually like any kids adventure movie, complete with slapstick humour and awkward sidekick. There's no sexual content and no swearing except for the bitch joke.But when it does get violent or heavy, it doesn't fuck around and goes much further than anything disney/pixar/dreamworks would consider. It's an interesting mix that I don't think I've seen before
>>223932932You know they can't dude Kids can genuinely be fucked up and traumatized by disturbing imagery
>>223930124Did you want them to not portray portland as the faggist shithole imaginable?
>>223934178>fantasy fiction of aesthetic X isn't fantasy fiction because it isn't aesthetic Y
>>223929957My kid really wants to see it because she loves Laika movies, but I don't think I have 2 and a half hours of this shit in me to be sitting at a theater.
>>223930197>we are le heckin good boys that ONLY steal from those evil billionaires that deserve itYes thats an accurate portrayal of how leftists see criminal blacks
>>223929957>Where did the idea that leftists were the only ones who made good art come from?It came from leftists seizing control of academia and a priori declaring that only art that advances a leftist agenda is good >>223930006>Because all good art criticizes or pushes a boundary, and transgression is purely a leftist feat.Case in point.
>>223930761It was a trilogy of books that they condensed into a 2 hour movie
>>223930006Peter Sotos is a leftist?
>>223930006You can find Internet memes more transgressive than any legacy art piece on like every corner of the web
>>223934382This is not true.Its only based on the first book.In the second book, curtis stayed behind and became a bandit, and some industralists from the real world tried to conquer the woods. In the third book some dude tried to revive the queen or something and they had to revive her boy first to defeat her, I forget.
>>223932881>for kidsLiteral retard has no idea what he’s talking about
