so, we're half way in 2014 and animated फिल्में so far are pretty good. we got some great ones out, we got some good ones and we also got animated dogshit. so let सूची em off:
best animated फिल्में so far:
"How To Train Your Dragon 2": y'all know me, i loved the first "How To Train Your Dragon" movie. it was awesome, it was exciting, it was funny, it was emotional, with great characters and probably some of the best CGI animations ever. so i went into "How To Train Your Dragon 2" excited, and what i got is the best animated movie of this year! "How To Train Your Dragon 2" does everything a good sequel should do, and it takes everything we loved about the first movie to the अगला level. the animation's mind blowing, the story's amazing, the voice acting's चोटी, शीर्ष notch, the characters are better this time, the action's exciting, it's bigger, it's a lot और epic and with और amazing dragons! and ever since "Kung Fu Panda 2" like 3 years ago, i don't think any animated sequel made me cry ("Alpha and Omega 2" did hit me, but it didn't make me cry). in this movie, i cried like 3 या 4 times. whenever a animated sequel makes आप cry, that's a perfect win. and that's one of the reasons why "How To Train Your Dragon 2" is the best animated movie of the साल so far.
"The Lego Movie": when i saw the first trailer to this movie, i was like "Holy shit! It looks awesome!" cause when i first heard about "The Lego Movie", i thought it was gonna be shit. (like "Legend of Chima"... ugh, the show!) but the first trailer caught me द्वारा surprise, so i went into the movie expecting great stuff, and i walked out all like "Holy shit! That really WAS awesome!" this movie reminds us that we all had Legos when we were kids. i had Legos, and i used to play with 'em all दिन as a kid. the एनीमेशन in this movie was awesome! it's CGI for sure, but it also felt like stop-motion animation. so, the stop-motion एनीमेशन made them look like real Legos. it was like somebody had a camera focusing on these tiny-ass Legos and आप watch their world and how they built stuff and it was awesome! also, it was hilarious (i laughed my नितंब, गधा off through a lotta scenes in this movie), it well-acted, well-directed, well-executed and it did a great job of reminding me how much i loved Legos. sure, in my book it's not as great as "How To Train Your Dragon 2", but still: great movie!
"Alpha and Omega 3: The Great भेड़िया Games": yeah, i'm gonna get a lotta hate on this, but this is MY personal taste and i don't give a shit what everybody else says about me. i'm a die hard "Alpha and Omega" fan. i absolutely loved the first 2 movies! and when i first heard about Crest Animations making और than just 1 sequel, i was like "HELL YEAH!" so it came out at the end of March, i sat down and watched it, and i couldn't stop smiling. i had so much fun with "Alpha and Omega 3"! this movie knows what it is, and it delivers exactly what i wanted (which is another great sequel). the animation's fixed, the characters get better and better with every movie: it was funny, touching and संपूर्ण, कुल मिलाकर really well done in my book. sure, it's not as good as the first 2, the animation's still kinda sloppy and the rest of the main characters aren't really in it (which made me kinda sad), but i still can't deny "Alpha and Omega 3" was another great sequel from my प्रिय franchise.
good animated movies:
"Mr. Peabody and Sherman": when i was a kid, i really liked "The Bullwinkle Show". i wasn't a die hard प्रशंसक of it, but i thought it was pretty good. so i went into the movie, and it was pretty good. i really enjoyed "Mr. Peabody and Sherman". it was pretty obvious that the movie still had the charm of the TV show, and i really liked that. Ty Burrell was pretty good as Mr. Peabody, i thought he did a good job; the kids who voiced Sherman and Penny also did a good job with their roles. also, it's DreamWorks so the animation's definitely awesome in this movie. the thing that kinda bothered me with the movie, it's that the plot gets a little too convoluted in some parts of the movie and that's where it starts to drag a bit. also, it wasn't as funny as the trailers made it out to be. i still laughed in the movie, but it wasn't as funny as the trailers. all that aside, i still had a really good with "Mr. Peabody and Sherman". yeah, it could've been a little better, but it's still a really fun movie.
"Rio 2": the first "Rio" movie was really good, i liked it. then, when i heard they were making a sequel, at first i was like "I don't know what to expect". then, they trailers came out and peaked my interest more. so, i went into the movie, sat down and watched it. and i gotta say: not bad, i liked it. the animation's still really damn good like the first one, most of the characters are likable and funny and it was pretty hilarious. Jesse Eisenberg once again did a good job as the nerdy Blu, Anne Hathaway was also good as Jewel and their kids are cute and not annoying, which is surprising to me. but, like most sequels out there, "Rio 2" does still have its downside. "Rio 2" was trying to be bigger than the first movie (ya know, it's set in वीरांगना, अमेज़न with lots of other birds), but apparently it falls short cause after a while it starts to run outta steam a little bit. also, some of the side characters were kinda annoying and the songs weren't as good as in the first movie. it made me miss Taio Cruz's "Telling The World" from the first movie. but still, i had a good watching "Rio 2". yea it's flawed, but it's entertaining.
okay animated movies:
"The Nut Job": i know this is the only movie in this section, but let's go with it. alright, so when i first saw the trailer to "The Nut Job", i thought it looked really good. so, i watched the movie and it actually turned out... just okay. yea, i was disappointed cause i was expecting this movie to be good. the animation's really good, they did a great job with the texture on the characters फर and the background animation; the voice अभिनय was decent, the score was good and it was enjoyable. but what really bugged me in this movie are the characters, especially Surly. ya know, Surly in this movie he's a selfish dick, and in some scenes he was so selfish, he kinda got on my nerves a little. whenever the main character in a movie is a selfish asshole, that's ballsy, but it's not really a good thing. and like i stated in my review, Andie's probably the best character in the movie. also, it's not really that funny, thanks to the overuse of fart jokes. i did laugh in the movie, but it wasn't enough to call it genuinely funny. so in the end, yea i was disappointed, but it's still okay for what it is.
worst animated फिल्में so far:
"The हंस Princess 5: A Royal Family Tale": when i first they were making a fifth movie to a franchise i never liked, i was like "Oh fuck no!" cause like y'all know, i'm not a "Swan Princess" fan. i've never been and i never will be. so i had the feel of dread going into this movie, mainly because i barely survived the atrocity knows as "Swan Princess Christmas". but i still sat down and watched this movie, and i shit आप not: i really regret it! the एनीमेशन in this movie is terrible! if u think the एनीमेशन in A&O 2 and 3 are bad, then u haven't seen "Swan Princess 5". this animation's missing so many details that it looks like a old, cheap PS1 video game from the late 90's. and the character मॉडेल are awful. they don't look natural at all, they look like fucking lifeless aliens. speakin' of which, the characters are why this movie's so bad! i literally didn't gave a rat's नितंब, गधा about anybody in this movie. they're all annoying as shit and they got they all got the personality of a piss puddle. Odette's still a creepy-looking bimbo, Derek's his usual stupid douche bag self and the new characters are also irritatingly obnoxious! the little girl's complete useless in the movie cause she never does anything. and how the fuck would u take a now-orphaned kid and party the अगला दिन after her dad dies in front of her?! then again, i didn't give a shit about her so why should i complain? this is the WORST animated movie we got so far in this year! please Crest Animations, i beg u: don't make another shitty "Swan Princess" movie!
"Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return": well, this is animated sequel to the 1939 classic "Wizard of Oz". if आप don't know this, i grew up with the "Wizard of Oz". as a kid, i loved that movie! so normally, when i heard about "Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return", i was excited. so i got a ticket to the movie. and my god, i'm SO disappointed! i was just looking at the movie, all like "What the hell is this? This isn't the Oz i remember!" this is set after the 1939 classic, with Dorothy finding Kansas in ruins cause of the tornado. this movie doesn't really have continuity between itself and the first story. this leads to so many plot holes. and the एनीमेशन in this movie is generic! i mean, okay. it may have nice backgrounds and effects, but that's not enough. it's just amateurish एनीमेशन trying to cash-in the money. but the biggest problem with this movie are the characters. these are NOT the characters we've grown to love. remember in the original where they were likable and charming? now, they turned them into obnoxious, paper-thin *things* that आप don't give a shit about. i get that they were trying to दिखाना us what happened to Oz while Dorothy was away, but we don't recognize them anymore. it's like they're unlikable clones of the original characters. and the movie was boring as hell! what else is there to say?
so that's it for now :)
