And ironically, that was an indie film, which are the very things film buffs praise for supposedly not having a lot of the B.S. from something of a major Hollywood studio.

Rango failed to break even domestically, but the foreign markets did score it a huge profit. While I don't see how a sequel would work out, I also don't see why Paramount isn't jumping at the chance to make one.

There's also an Adventure Time knockoff called The Legend of Lucky Pie, which is equally as impressive. The quality of the (traditional) animation reminds me more of the cruder style of the AT pilot that swept the Internet waaaaay back in 2008...

I must say, the animation on that Gumball knockoff looks really good. A little more stilted than the real thing, but at least they actually put effort into knocking something off, unlike something such as Shen Shou Jing Gang. Also, I love how Juke the boombox in the ersatz Gumball is an...

Even down to mo-capping the actors' faces a la L.A. Noire, which gives them a much more detailed and fluid movement. But there's still going to be some CGI characters, though as Serkis Folk (with the real Andy Serkis playing at least one of them).

Amethyst used to work on Barney, of all shows! I'd say this is a better venue for her. :D I'm more looking forward to what Pearl and Garnet look like when fused.

It seems more like they're trying to go for their own Progressive Insurance box mascot and failing miserably.

That was indeed an intense two-parter! And it's no wonder why Garnet had three eyes! :)

Although it's nice to know that this will be Disney's first theatrically released sequel since The Rescuers Down Under, and I'm doubtful that it will be as badly written as the DTV ones, I don't know how the writers are going to continue Frozen's story with a full sequel. Now, Disney, how about...

DW has really made the most of their Netflix contract, and it seems to be working for them.

Well, I guess I thought wrong. Chappie opened worse than Elysium, but it still remained #1 last week at around $13 mil. Meanwhile, Focus and Kingsman round out the top 3 spots, while the Exotic Marigold sequel and SpongeBob trail closely behind...

If the Speed Racer movie bombed, I don't see how a live-action Akira would do any better. I think the movie you're looking for is last year's Arkham Sanitarium. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3630782/?ref_=nv_sr_1 That's about as misleading as Avengers Grimm from The Asylum themselves. :rolleyes:

And speaking of talking animal movies, anyone remember Paulie? It's about a parrot who tries to reunite with his young owner who was unfairly taken from her. This also feels a lot more heartfelt and genuine even when talking nostalgia filter out of the equation, not to mention more natural in...

We can only hope that Abrams is open to working with others like Lucas once was.

Animalympics was meant to be two separate specials with each part focusing on the summer and winter Olympics, but thanks to the mass boycott of the 1980 summer games in Moscow, it was awkwardly combined into one, which explains why it felt so disjointed.

How they've managed to sucker John Ratzenberger and Sean Giambrone (of The Goldbergs and Clarence) into this dreck is a mystery. Is Pixar not paying the former enough or something? And was the latter threatened at gunpoint into voicing the dog? And at least the late Michael Jeter had some fun...

Homeward Bound (including its '60s original) still remains the gold standard of these sorts of talking animal movies, namely because these animals don't actually talk (they instead use voiceovers), and that it doesn't try to be like a giant cartoon like Russell Madness.

If Misery will be a musical, then it's bound to be even sillier than when Family Guy parodied it. :p

That was a really funny parody of all those unboxing videos, and even more entertaining, too! I was also expecting Cookie to eat the note from his mom along the way, but he wouldn't be that heartless, now would he?

I think MGM did enough damage with that DTV sequel from the '90s that wasn't even based off the book's sequel. There's no need to further damage it with a Chipmunks wannabe.
