Treasure Planet: So Underrated, an artistically beautiful masterpiece

    

         
    Directed by Disney legends John Musker and Ron Clements the directors behind The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Hercules, Moana, and so much more. This movie was pitched alongside The Little Mermaid all the way back in the eighties. They tried to get this movie made for along time until it was finally put into production. The movie was released in 2002 and was a critical success, but was a box office disaster probably because Harry Potter 2, Spiderman 1, Attack of the Clones came out around the same time. Well guess what, this movie is better then all off those movies!
    But what about the movie itself. I saw this on Disney + with my little bros and we loved it. I thought it was super original, gorgeous, and tons of fun. Lets start with the story. The story is based on Robert Luis Stevenson's Treasure Island but in space! Its like Pirates of the Caribbean meets Star Wars. I loved the story! It had a great plot that I was invested in till the end. It was very action packed so I was on the edge off my seat a lot off the time. I also thought the humor in it was quirky and fun. Characters are really important to me so what about them? Amazing!!! Very complex and well developed. I didn't tell you who the characters are in Avatar: The Last Airbender because I wanted to keep the show a surprise and to avoid spoilers, but I will tell you about one character and its the guy with the robot arm in the picture. This guy is, oh my gosh guys, he is great. His name is Captain John Silver and he is a super complex character that's a bad guy but isn't. He's a father figure like character to that guy up there. A lot of the characters are aliens and robots and they all fantastically designed and animated. Which reminds me, the animation!  This is some off the best animation I have ever seen! It flawlessly combines hand drawn and computer animation giving it this real atmospheric look to it. The designs of the characters, the fluid movements, the backgrounds everything! The setting is like this steam punk setting which I love and works so well. Theirs this scene where John Silver is cooking and he flawlessly switches his arms super fast as the food is up and the air and then cuts it or burns it or something flawlessly! Its incredible! You can't take your eyes off of this scene!
    In conclusion, its sad that this movie doesn't get the recognition it so truly deserves. Its one off my all time faviorite animated Disney films! Do your self a favor watch it and spread the word. It is unlike anything you will ever see.

Underrated Animation: Looney Tunes: Back in Action: One of the best live action/animation hybrid movies ever

Image
    Looney Tunes Back in Action is outstanding! It is  very underrated! It is a lot like Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Mary Poppins where it combines 2d hand drawn animation and live action. The movie combines everything I love about Looney Tunes and more with monsters, spy's, Steve Martin, Westerns, Adventure films, and everything else I love. The interactions between the animated characters and the human characters are amazing, very fun to look at, here is an example.      The animation is gorgeous, oh and also, IT IS HILARIOUS! I was dying of laughter! It gets the personalities of the looney tunes characters down. Tons of looney tunes and movie references that I love! Making fun of product placement! To be honest with you, its better then Space Jam and here's why. Space Jam is fantastic but it does make very little sense. There's a lot of plot holes and questionable things, however the looney tunes characters, the animation, humor, and the originality of t...

Animated Films with stylized animation (and how they did it)

Image
 I got a ton of reviews for movies and shows that I wanna do but I feel like I've been doing a lot of reviews lately, so I'm gonna do this instead. It gives me a little else to talk about. Today I'm gonna talk about movies with animation that looks like nothing we've seen before and how they did it. I also put videos so you can see the process. Spider-Man into the Spiderverse Spider-Man into the Spiderverse is a groundbreaking film in many ways. But one reason is because of its incredible animation! How they made the computer animation look like a comic book is amazing! How they did it is they put a lot of 2-D lines on the characters face. Look closely on Miles' face, see how the wrinkles on his forehead look hand drawn. They also animated most of the movie on twos, which means that they are 12 frames of animation in one second instead of the 24 frames of animation in one second which is used in most animated films. They did this to make the animation feel more grap...
