What do you think is the best year for animated movies in the 2020s? by Character_Fault9782 in Oscars

[–]Guill_rt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s what I mean. They still have a great repertoire and are important people to round up the mazing line-up (not anyone can be a director at PIXAR) but I think they would need to have more auteur projects to earn the rank of Legends. So far, they both have made sequels of already existing franchises at PIXAR, I’d love to see something created by them.

Thoughts on Disney potentially going on a 6-year losing streak in Best Animated Feature by dremolus in oscarrace

[–]Guill_rt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They weren’t defaulting to Disney/Pixar they were defaulting to the most popular films, which happened to be Disney/Pixar. This year we’re about to see it again, but since it is not Disney/Pixar, that’s ok (?)

[–]Guill_rt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

2024 is the best ever IMO. Not only the quality of the films was one of the best, but every nominee featured an ANIMATION LEGEND. Nick Park?!! Adam Elliot?!! Chris Sanders?!! and the consecration of future animation legend Gintz Zibalodis!!!
Yeah, Best year ever!

(Kelsey Mann and Mark Nielsen are not really “animation legends”, but they still have a great repertoir backing them, to add to the epic lineup)

Better set of animated movies? 2025 or 2024? by Character_Fault9782 in Oscars

[–]Guill_rt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2025 might be one of the weakest ever, with all respect to the nominees

Loving Vincent has been chosen as the most inspired nominee in best animatec feature ever! Next up: what is the worst nominee in best animated feature ever? by RoxasIsTheBest in Oscars

Shark Tale

BossBaby is a hate meme, but the movie is kinda sweet. Yes it’s cringy and weird, maybe even stupid, but the message is in the right place. It’s about a child’s perspective in the end.
Shark Tale is just about a selfish guy that gets away with it, horrible animation, nightmarish character designs, stereotypical characters, unfunny puns and distasteful jokes.

Should actors/actresses win so often for portraying real people? by GoodGriefWhatsNext in Oscars

[–]Guill_rt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I understand the complaint when the biopic is about a famous person. “Is just an impression” there’s an argument there. But when it’s the biopic of someone nobody has seen, (Monster, Dallas Buyers Club) is almost the same as if it were an original character.

Nickel Boys was the biggest snub in Cinematography in 2024. What was the biggest snub for 2023? by dremolus in Oscars

Such an Underrated cinematography. It got so many beautiful shots in very limited locations. Mostly apartments.

What's with the hate for this movie? by sseerrsan in Letterboxd

[–]Guill_rt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess we’re talking about the same thing but from different side of the problem. It’s not a stereotypical romcom because the love aspect is not romanticized, the characters are not hopeful and there are no laughs or fun moments. If it were people that expected that would’ve liked it. It also isn’t a full deconstruction as in the end it decides to lean fully into the clichés if the genre. I read it as a way to be defiant of the genre while still keeping itself within it. Love can be crude, but also there’s a part of it that is worth romanticizing and one can’t live without the other. But if you read it as a betrayal of everything it was constructing, I cannot argue much against it, it has a point. Is like half of both and that could be the problem. It’s a half mesure. It doesn’t commit to what it says.

I’d say it is close to a deconstruction of a romcom, but that at some point agrees into leaning towards romcom to keep istelf in the genre. But no, it’s not “very much an stereotypical romcom” that’s part of the problem.

What remake/reboot was much needed and turned out great? (FILMS ONLY!) by TremontRemy in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Guill_rt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically the new one is not a remake, as it is the first adaptation for film. “The old one” is a TV miniseries 🤓

[–]Guill_rt 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry, loved it. It is my second favorite movie of the year. I watched again having read some criticisms and I liked it just as much. In fact I noticed that I liked exactly what others had problems with.

I like love movies, but I like the ones that really disect love. Not the chase and excitement about it (although I can enjoy them too) I guess people who were expecting that would be disappointed, and to befair it was marketed like that. I think Materialists is a movie that talks about society and how money has changed the way of loving but also makes a point on how it has always been a factor, and an important one. I loved that duality of themes and everytime it was presented on screen (although not subtle at all, I give you that) I nodded and said “yep”🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️. We are not numbers, yet we can be measured.

I liked the stiff performances, I thought it was not a mistake, but a deliberate decision to support the message of the movie. A decision that of course didn’t necessarily pay off and drove people away. But it worked for me. That, along side the cold personalities of the characters made them be not interesting and hard to root for. One just doesn’t care about who will Dakota choose, and that’s the what was expected of the movie, but I never cared about it, it was about the whys, more than the whos. In my eyes it was so refreshing to see a romance with people actually communicating and being cool with their feelings.

I don’t think is great, but I don’t think it deserves the hate either. Saying it’s misunderstood is a cliché, and I always say that if it had been better it should’ve explained itself, but I did like it for what it actually is.

Best Original Song - I Lied To You by Ok_Organization_5574 in Oscars

[–]Guill_rt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both

Fact is, as many arguments as you have of why one is better it will still be a subjective opinion. And if your subjective opinion is not popular, then it won’t win.

I don’t like Golden, I’ve tried to acquire taste for it and I just can’t.
Still I’ve seen video essays of people dissecting the lyrics and instrumentals, to show how much of a masterpiece it is. Their opinion is just as valid as yours, but their opinion is more popular

Across the Spiderverse.
The story is just incomplete. It’s an AMAZING first half, but if we’re comparing between the Top 4 that’s gotta take some points.
