Computer movies are abusive!

[Ninsega091]

First of all, I don't mean that movies like: Toy Story or Shrek suck, I mean that, EVERY ANIMATED MOVIE shown in theaters lately, is in CGI.

I mean really the last movie to date that was hand-drawn was The Simpson Movie. The only remaining of hand-drawn animation is show's on Nickelodeon,/Cartoon Network, Sit-coms on Fox/Comedy Central, and Anime!

As we know it, EVERYTHING WILL BE CGI IN THE FUTURE! If you don't like this topic don't be a bitch! I was just wondering if anyone out there find this whole CGI thing bullshit....

[Digital-Terror]

Fuck drawn animation, stop-motion is where it's at.

[Straight-Edge]

Congratulations, you just now figured out what we've known for years.

[Ninsega091]

Gimme a break! It didn't bother me until this year!

[nsc007]

I have to admit, there is a certain charm to hand-drawn animation.

[Lasergates]

nothing is fully hand drawn anymore, all the cartoons you see on tv are done on computers

You DO have a point. Robert Benford (Knox) is doing pretty good.

[SohlTofang]

Yeah, it's called progress.
You know who uses drawn animation?, North Korea.

[esko-man]

It's sickening to the eye, and I hope Disney will eventually get back into that pre-2001 phase and start making some animated classics.

Only if people stop watching new Disney shits and just buy/rent/On-Demand classic-style movies.

Anyway, it's not solely about animation style, it's about the writing and the plot of the movies. Even now I can watch, say, Toy Story and like it, maybe not as much as I did when I was a kid but it's still enjoyable. Meanwhile, something like Madagascar makes me want to put my eyes out and throw myself into a volcano as a sacrifice to prevent any more movies like that from being made. Similarly, I can still watch Spirited Away or something, while I never want to see that "A Very Goofy Movie", or whatever Disney called it, again as long as I live.

What you're noticing is that a lot of the movies now lack any real "soul", as it's often called. That's probably been true since the beginning. Hey, not everything can be a Walt-grade classic, know what I mean? You're just noticing the crappy ones now, because around 1980 neither of us were alive to see the crap, and the shitty ones have (mostly) been forgotten. I've seen some mediocre-ass cartoons in my time, hand-animated too. You're blaming it on a fundamental change in how movies are animated, while it's probably just that Disney's putting out commercials for crappy movies as always and you're seeing them.

Hahaha, ha. You've got to be blind to think that The Simpson Movie was entirely in 2D, and you have to be even blinder to think that it was hand-drawn.

Half of the scenes of the movie were in 3D and you could easily see when it switched back to 2D.

[GayForGirls]

Fuck you, you only watch shit Dreamworks movies.

You don't think Pixar creates art? You're a fucking retard.

Also bumped to FP.

Say thanks OP.

[GayForGirls]

Also, the Simpson movie was not really close to hand drawn you fool. You call Koreans humans? I call em machines.

They're tools for drawing and coloring. Also, lots of CGI effects in there.

And, all the toons on Nickelodeon or whatever are also made with a computer.
Few things that are hand drawn, are the old Disney movies, anime (which slowly is also getting replaced with CGI versions)

Just sayin, CGI isn't 3D solemnly. Drawing with hand is a dying race. And you know it.

[GayForGirls]

Posting for the third time realizing everything I typed out has all been discussed into the deep end.

I will now fap and kill myself.

[Snake-Arsenic]

Most animated movies are CGI anyway. I think you're referring mostly to 3D CGI, but 2D CGI is very practical and can supplement frame by frame and hand drawn animations rather well. One example would be in the form of a loop combined with a tween for walking.

One coming up, at least for the animation part.

[EclecticEnnui]

Also, I have no problem with CGI movies. Like SoulMaster71 said, there's more to a movie than its animation.

[Freaki-boy92]

why do you think newgrounds exists? Flash is great for 2d animations!

I'm not talking about movies on Newgrounds, I'm talking about movies is theaters!

[Jackdabomb]

There's no hand drawn animations on tv either. Atleast not the new ones. I've noticed that Chowder and a few others have textures implemented into the background and such and I know a lot of the cartoons add color by computer.

That's a stupid idea. NOBODY likes funny cartoons.

[EvilerBowser1001]

This makes me laugh, because The Simpsons Movie was enhanced with CGI.
I mean, just about every feature length major animation release, no matter if it's Pixar style or not, is aided by technology, including GCI.

[CapnCrunchDaPimp]

This is true, soon, in the near future, all shows will be created by fat geeks on computers or Asian sweatshops where kids draw the animations with stencils. There will be no creativity left in cartoons, all great cartoons will die out and be forgotten for good, and cartoons will be aimed only to sell merchandise and enslave children to do evil things.

Most cartoons these days already operate like that. In fact, a lot of cartoons even in the 90s, that we tend to think of as American created, were outsourced to Asia for animating, such as Batman: The Animated Series.

As people have already mentioned, Disney is making another animated movie, and I'm really hoping that it's a big success. I would LOVE to see this movie cause a new generation of animated movies back on screen. CG isn't superior to drawn animation. You can't even compare the two; they're too different from each other to be.

I love Pixar and Dreamworks (Pixar especially), but I would really like to see animated movies again. Hell I'll still watch Aladdin on vhs from time to time. Damn right.

This is also true, most cartoons are produced in that way. You can tell Batman had to be made offshores because of the anime influenced style. I bet some of the Godly cartoons were made the old fashioned the way, the kinds with unique and robust art styles, like Cow & Chicken, Ed Edd & Eddy, Dexter's Laboratory, and more.
