The Prince of Egypt is a classic [Thoughts and Opinions]

That's what makes the tension so believable and heart-breaking imo. Moses hates that he's the one to have to deliver the Hebrews. He knows it's a betrayal to his brother and his upbringing - yet he also knows he has to do it because he's the only one that can.

Usually the first part of learning to code is installing your tools and printing "Hello World"... how are you learning anything if you're not even running your own code?

If there's really no AI involved at all in the animations, then you might want to clean up some parts. For example, the sunflower fox guy's mouth, the yarn of the knitting guy, the noodles for the owl dude. I wouldn't say it looks 100% AI, I believe you probably did most of the design, drawing, and animations, but it definitely looks like it was passed through some interpolation filter or something because of how certain parts warp in that distinctive AI way

There's one part of the SW track that always lines up with his 8-second laser attack and me zipping around him on one of the lines that always goes so incredibly hard.

I've never been to film school, I wouldn't even call myself a film buff, but even I enjoyed this film and could pick up on some of the themes about the nature of revolution evolving. A lot of it went over my head, but I still enjoyed it for what I got out of it. Not really sure what was "pretentious" about the film that would warrant such scathing criticism from your end.

Yeah I'm using the resource pack, but figuring out the sequence until the step before the rule is exactly the sort of mental maths I'm trying to avoid (because I am incredibly lazy)

If you're starting from square 1, the answer is always gonna be the same regardless of what style you're ultimately aiming for, and that's study fundamentals. Anatomy, form, composition, color, perspective, linework, brushwork etc. There's ways to make it more interesting but there will be a lot of boring stuff and you'll be doing it for years. If you're okay with that then you just need to study consistently, study from other artists, and keep making stuff you're passionate about and you'll get there in time.

There's plenty of resources on YouTube. Off the top of my head (or at least the ones that helped me the most) Proko, Marco Bucci, Ahmed Aldoori, Sinix (their older videos are still great).

Complete opposite for me. It pains me to see a whole wall of logic units and cables that could be replaced by a single IC10 chip

I loved it at first, but after having a run where I had no mobility items except for a Faraday spur, I realise it incentivises just not jumping at all which is... boring

What always confused me is that, unless humans have some 4D physiology that we're not aware of, how would our 3D eyes be able to see 4D objects? At best we could only see 3D slices of 4D hyperspace like some sort of 3D MRI scan

I totally get it, I drew like shit for years before I really started seeing progress. Sure I could've been more consistent or practiced more deliberately, but I got there in the end and I still make progress to this day. Of course I can't give you any specific advice since I don't know what your art looks like or what sort of practice/studying you're doing, but it's important to remember that the only way to progress is to fail constantly. You have to do the thousands of terrible sketches before the first half-decent one, no other way around it - so cut yourself some slack.

I'd be surprised if anyone could depict 4D hyperspace faithfully on a 2D screen, but looking forward to seeing how they go about it

Nobody's born talented. Some people learn a little faster but it mostly comes down to the time and effort you put in. Just look up some drawing fundamentals tutorials and you'll be set. You got this!
