How pathetic you must be

>unnecessary toy story sequel involving a thinly veiled allegory for gender dysphoria

What?

Because no one wants to fucking watch Toy story anymore.

A lot of people think the story had a good ending with 3 and that this sequel was an unnecessary addition to the overall story.
Thus unnecessary sequel.

So far this year the only major box office success in animation has been The Hidden World.

Are we on the cusp of another animation crash in the US? Is the general audience finally sick of 3d animated films?

It flopped.

The opposite, I'm criticizing it because this is the state of animation today

>under performs
Did anyone else forget this movie came out? Also, under performed is a massive understatement.
SLOP 1 made like 800 million. SLOP 2 will make 170 million at most

>Are we on the cusp of another animation crash in the US? Is the general audience finally sick of 3d animated films?
Honestly to god I hope so, that's when they either start thinking of how to improve their shit or drop making this garbage completely.
This won't "bomb" per say, but seeing China not accept it might raise some eyebrows at Disney HQ

See, I already know I'm pathetic. So I'm free to bash 4 as the soulless cash grab that it is.

No shit it bombed.

I'm worried about Scoob, because the idea behind that movie is to set up a Hanna Barbara cinematic universe and if that fails, I don't know what will become of WAG.

>SLOP

Shit, what was the marketing thinking when they named this movie. You think someone would have noticed this.

I first watched it during the Month of Miyazaki on Toonami as a kid and I loved it. Definetely one of his standout films, although Porco Rosso is a close second IMO

And this got through into China? I thought China wasn't into gender issues?

Thank fuck. 2D > 3D
Is there any hope of a revival of 2D animation?

Warner Animation? The TV or the movie branch?

>SLOP 2 will make 170 million at most
based on what? it's not even out in many places

Technically it broke even, granted this isn't considering marketing and distribution costs so it most definitely lost money.

No, they're just not easy-guaranteed money anymore.

movie branch. The TV branch will be fine as cartoons are suppose to be a major part of their new streaming service, Warner Animation is doing OK, but Scoob is suppose to set up their money maker, and the last WB movie studio got shut down relatively quick.

That's not breaking even

Pfft, no. Inflation alone makes it an unfair comparison, at least profit wise. Quality, on the other hand...
No, sorry. The Chocobo.

Quality-wise, the animated wins any time. I don't know how they're gonna try to pull of the Can't Wait to be King sequence with "muh realistic CGI-talking animals". I doubt they'd go as bombastic and colourful as the original.
Ah, sorry. But that's okay too. i see you around often, so I had to ask

And every retard in this thread is still ignoring the most vital part of the puzzle, big surprise.

The King of Monster sends his regards

Nobody makes money out of netflix, not even Netflix. if Netflix gives you 50M to make a movie, you get 50M and that's it, no loss, no benefits.

chinks don't need the mouse church to sell, they don't watch starwars or avengres because they pray every day to the brand like murricans, they do because they have horrible taste.

Considering Endgame needed a re-release for beating Avatar and now this, I guess Disney can't do what they want anymore in China. America and China are at war now and China was already having problems with their deal with Hollywood, last year they increased the profit for local theaters and the empty theaters became viral with Captain Marvel. In the past, Disney could inflate the numbers with China but the government is currently supporting the local industry and America is kinda the enemy now.

You know what he meant you sophist shill.

I hope people here don't actually believe, even if audiences were getting tired of 3D films, that's not going to somehow improve the 2D animation industry. All it will do is make it so there are less animated films next year. Which means animation has to CONTINUE to live in the world of, "Only a few products are released a year and 90% are still shit" while live-action manages to pump out hundreds of shit every fucking month and you can at least find a dozen good movies/shows worth watching in a year.

Good, less garbage. Let them continue their failing formula if they want to lose more investments

>A Japanese movie is liked by China more than a movie from the US

I thought China hated Japan so much they banned most of their culture stuff.

>Less garbage

Again, that's not how it works. If you get 10 movies a year and it drops to 5, the chance of you not enjoying animated features for an entire year goes up, not down. The quality does not get higher because the quantity is lower. It stays the same.

>*Raughing intensifies*

Pixar’s movies usually perform not well in China because the Chinese don’t give a fuck on American culture themed animation. Coco is the only exception because they’re very related to memorial of passed family.

>The quality does not get higher because the quantity is lower. It stays the same.
Quantity gets lower, yes, but instead of getting 10 shit films you get 5 shit films. Hence less garbage to be embarrassed by even if the proportion is the same

With the exception of Endgame, really look at the year. Everything's either underperforming, or flopping. I think we might get a genuine "oh shit" moment in Hollywood if Star Wars only floats a billion.

The hate on Japan is mostly political manipulation by the government. Thanks to trade war by Trump, China seems to slow down the hatred education against Japan and emphasise the “friendship” of both countries. Also a lot of Chinese teenagers love to watch anime and manga.

You don't need a Child's Play reboot or crappy Godzilla movie but this is the world you live in.

I take back every racism I ever said about the Chinese because i was mad at video games.

Sometimes you alright Boco.

This is the reason why, even when Netflix is billions in the red, many companies are moving towards streaming services, people have gotten so used to instantly accessible media that a movie making millions at the box office is becoming the exception instead of staying the rule

>This is the reason why, even when Netflix is billions in the red, many companies are moving towards streaming services
I really really hope disney + bombs, not only to see the mouse suffer but for this streaming bubble to finally pop. I dont mind streaming being the future, i just fucking hate alot of things about it such as netflix and the shit content they produce, to dumping entire seasons at once. I just hope a newer slate of streaming channels pop up and focus less on newer shittier so called woke material, and maybe focus on doing what netflix did in the first place and be accessible to older shows and movies instead of trying o make their own original series of an all lesbian jem and the holograms or something of that sort.

Damn thanks china, I promise I wont talk about teinamen square or shit

It's literally opening weekend. How could they possibly find that out in less than 24 hours.

Billions in debt, streaming as a service doesn't make that much when you consider all the costs of the licenses of movies/shows
This is why Netflix moved to original programs, to push non Netflix owned IPs out so they don't have to worry about those costs anymore
The thing with Disney is that they already own some of the most popular IPs, Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar/Disney animated films, etc
Disney+ won't lose as much money as Netflix but they have a huge following
But $7 a month isn't gonna cover the budgets of every film they produce unless they have billions of subscribers

the real lesson here is movies shouldnt cost $100million+ to make (and then another $100million to advertise)

>Billions in debt, streaming as a service doesn't make that much when you consider all the costs of the licenses of movies/shows
>This is why Netflix moved to original programs, to push non Netflix owned IPs out so they don't have to worry about those costs anymore
Huh, it never occurred to me that thats why they went to focusing on original content, i would've thought it would be more expensive to make more new shows the to keep the rights to older shows
>The thing with Disney is that they already own some of the most popular IPs, Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar/Disney animated films, etc

See the thing is that disney has single handily killed the most popular franchise in the world with star wars, and most of the fandom is still so bent out of shape that they wont sub to disney+ out of principle. Coupled with the fact that the mandalorian seems to be the one big show theyre banking people will subscribe to it for, and that all the MCU series sound bad (though i could be more bis in this regard since im sick of capeshit), it doesnt have any appeal.

>the real lesson here is movies shouldnt cost $100million+ to make (and then another $100million to advertise)
BRING BACK PRACTICAL EFFECTS

They look so much better, dont age like CGI does, and cost a hell of a lot less then CGI.

>Huh, it never occurred to me that thats why they went to focusing on original content, i would've thought it would be more expensive to make more new shows the to keep the rights to older shows
When you look at it long term, you have to not only pay the first fee, but have constant payments to keep it up, with original content, you pay the price of making it and then you can keep it up for as long as you want

Thanks Asshole I actually really appreciate it!

I'm not sure what to think since Spirited Away is overrated as fuck.

That's not how it works though. You can look at anime, and how about 95% of their output is either shonenshit, haremshit, or isekaishit, but that 5% tops most of what gets released in the US. This is because while the America gets at most 8-10 new cartoons each year, the Japs get literal dozens. I'd rather filter through the dirt and find some gold than get a single package of shit every season.

>Hanna Barbara Cinematic Universe
Oh God, please let that flop. That shit sounds horrid. Scooby Doo was always shit to begin with.

You fool, he'll gut the animation department. Instead let's pray for everything else to, even things outside of the movies, then he'll truly pay.

Chinese have some of the most random tastes when it comes to movies and dislike them for the pettiest reasons,

While this is great news, there have been plenty of good movies that bomb just because their tastes are so weird. They need to stop trying to win them over, it's not worth it when you can't guarantee jack n' shit.

>They did? I thought the joke was that they hated Bumblebee but kept eating Michael Bay's shit.

The real winners of the streaming war were the holders of the shows themselves, since now they can rank up the price to keep the services paying them constantly to keep them up.

I was all for the guy to take the presidential seat but boy was that a shot on the foot. China basically swooce right in and took the smaller countries to their propaganda when the US should have tried to show them what the benefit was.

I'm surprised that they still haven't rolled some of it back given they are just letting all that cash flow go straight to the nips.

As much as I love Spirited Away can we accept it turned the tone of Ghibli's movies from a sense of adventure (even in the most mundane settings) in to trite whimsy?

Literally soul vs souless

I'd say a big flaw in his movies is, and Spirited Away made it worse, that there's a real focus on "magical moments" with what connects them often being rather tenuous.

well deserved victory

also some really weird hints at self castration with woody giving up his speak box

No, but only because it was succeeded by The Cat Returns and (regardless of actual quality and source faithfulness, it felt like a god damn adventure) Howl's Moving Castle. There, 2004, is your cutoff point into trite whimsy.

Don't be foolish. This is clearly a nostalgia cash grab and deserves to fail. Think about it, they're making a sequel for movie series that ended ages ago. What kind of kid still likes Toy Story?

not sure if ironic.

it'll make a ton of money anyway, Toy Story 3 wasn't even released in China and it made 1 billion. the key factor for Toy Story's success is actually Japan, they did contributed $126M to the box office for Toy Story 3. unless Detective Conan or Doraemon is getting a re-release i dont see TS4 flopping in there

>Is it just me or are most of Miyazaki's films a jumbled mess with no consistent plot direction?
A lot of people claim this and I don't see it. Are you just getting confused because it's not conventional Hollywood storytelling?

As I understand, Ponyo was 'abstractly' inspired by Hans Christian Anderson. Ya know, she didn't end commit suicide in the end. It's also more a tossup of The Tempest. Also reminds me of WALL-E, given it's about a protagonist escaping their garbage hellscape to find love.
>Is it just me or are most of Miyazaki's films a jumbled mess with no consistent plot direction
I'm a very slow person when it comes to understanding plots, any plot that makes me confused for too long will break a movie for movie... but for some reason, Miyazaki's plots have the opposite effect on me? Perhaps cause he abandons plots almost all together. It takes no mental effort to get the gist of Totoro, and Ponyo was made so quite literally a babby can understand it. Spirited Away was so flagrantly a dream world that I just embraced that anything happens. Howl's was lost on me tho.

Shounen is a target demographic. Nisekoi and Dragon Ball are both shounen. Harem and isekai are memes whipped up by hysterical Westeners who barely watch any anime. There's only a few of them in every season and could very easily be avoided by people if they wanted to.

I don't know why so many people find Spirited Away incomprehensible. It's not some weird arthouse movie. Even the spirit world operates in a logical manner (bathhouse needs workers, workers need to be paid, water has to be heated, train needs tickets).

Never was a big fan of Ghibli movies. I mean they look pretty but something about the plots and the way characters interact never really hit home with me.

You don't understand that right now China is in it's version of 1900s America and eventually (in a few decades) it'll have it's 1950s boom and we'll be fucked.

Even if the economy does crash they still have the factories and the manpower. What does the West have?

Not if they keep aborting their girls. I can see an implosion in the next few years

Wasn't that policy abolished years ago?

was it? I thought it was the one-child policy they lifted

They're having a population bottleneck due to the ill-thought-out "One Child Policy". They will remain pretty powerful and influential, but saying that it'll be like "the US i nthe Fifties" is a big stretch.

Did you know that Hayao Miyazaki, the Japanese anti-authoritarian and environmentalist, fucking hates China and has openly criticized their state for decades? I thought you might find that interesting.

Attached: acee29870be5fa90cba6cb42d966b84d.jpg (612x612, 59K)

There has never been a policy to abort girls in China. It was a conscious decision by most parents, as they still thought in the old ways, in which girls drain your patrimony and aren't obliged to visit and help the eldery parents, but boys are.

Then it must really suck for boys who grew up with abusive parents then

it used to be an inanimate object, user. there's more of a god message or a mixed race message there than a trans one. god, you freaks love to be offended.

Yes, in that it's not convention to make a movie with no consistent direction.

Calling every single progressive "a commie" really did rot your brain, didn't it?

What?. I'm not calling them progressive just pragmatic bastards.

Name anyone that actually likes China. It's probably the most hateable country.

Princess Mononoke, Nausicaa, Spirited Away and Laputa all have pretty straightforward plots that are esy to follow. Kiki is more of a slice of life thing, but still has a normal plot in the second half.

>They're atheist commies and don't care about "muh conservative values"

Aldo China is trash.
Tianamen square.

If they believe that giving up that will make them the saviors of the human race they will? What's more important for them the family values or the comunist and nationalistic values?

Holy shit you're dumb. literally explained why did the "One Child Policy" cause an excess of males, by all but stating that it was due to the Chinese having more family values than overall benefit in mind, the policy has been relaxed to allow two (not even entirely lifted nor forcing families to have a girl!), and yet you claim that China "will destroy family values"?
Yeah, the Western family values they never fucking had of "have child- child grows- child of either gender fucks off and interacts with you sporadically."

>Toy Story 1-3 weren't allowed a theatrical release in China
Source? I'm more surprised they didn't get even just the 1st one.

What other user say was that they have more male childs because the elders want to live from their sons, that not are values that's just naive egoism I know that because is the same in my country but the young males don't care and leave their parents alone when they can afford that. Old values are dying here, there and most certainly in China

He has openly criticized Japan, US, Russia, and China for decades. He was very close to communists when he was young and that's why he shits on US and Japan more often.

>What's more important for them the family values or the comunist and nationalistic values?

China has no communist values. They haven't been communist for 50 years.

>Did anyone else forget this movie came out?

How could you? They advertised that shit everywhere.

Tell that to the ones that are pushing Lenin and Mao on schools and the ones that support them

The puppets are 3D. But you’re right that it’s not really comparable to the other CG films. Except budget for some retarded reason.

China has superb taste.

The billionaire will still be billionaires, the workers are the ones that are going to suffer.

God I can only hope so.

so many animated series got animated in Hong Kong and still were able to do stuff that was banned in China

>The performance of Toy Story 4 in the always-quirky China market is unlikely to impact the movie's performance in North America, where it also opens this weekend. Analysts predict the film to debut in the $150 million-$200 million range stateside, one of the best openings of all time for an animated feature — not to mention one of the biggest launches of the year.

Samurai are japanese you dipsit

Ugh

I suppose in the studios mind, it's attempting to communicate by the medium, but what I see is that the movie basically focuses on a frame or scene of decentish animation at completely random points. I feel like these movies tell their stories, sometimes, by Establishing points of development; Character A was dumb. At this scene, he now is smart; instead of establishing a consistent curve of development. It's been a long time since I've watched one though

It’s Pixar’s fault. They went all in on the third film, closing the chapter on the series with Andy’s departure and then turned around and pushed for a fourth film. You can only cash in so many nostalgia chips before you tap out and people move on to the next thing.

If the SJW menace isn't involved in literally every facet of their life, what have they been fighting for?!

>anime is a mista-

The Mouse should fear the Souls. Based.

SJW and their detractors are way more alike than you'd think, if only they'd both shut the fuck up.

No, they don't.

I hope Tenki no Ko breaks records and gets critical praise from the west so Disney gets BTFO twice in a row at the Oscars.

NO NO MEDIA IS NEEDED PEOPLE NEEDED TOY STORY 1-3 BECAUSE BECAUSE

BASED Miyazaki

it ended three months after the film was released

Well with Spirited Away they cut the third act for time so the movie just kind of deflates after the bit with Noh Face since they couldn't slot in the confrontation with Zeniba.

>Toy Story 3 wasn't even released in China and it made 1 billion
I wonder if kids weren't turned off Toy Story by the third movie. I know I was and I was old already.

>this is your brain on /pol/

Africa would rather get screwed over by China then work with europeans again (except the Francophonie countries, they still bow to France)

Maoists around the world felt betrayed by Deng Xiaoping and Japanese communists were mostly maoists

But is this a new chapter in the USA/China Trade War?

>In the past, Disney could inflate the numbers with China but the government is currently supporting the local industry and America is kinda the enemy now.
God, Fucking yes. Both Disney animation and the new SJW MCU need to die

Well shit, that's a nice poster.

And anti-SJWs continued it long past the point it should have ended.

Why does this bother you? It seems so insignificant.

>Hanna Barbara cinematic universe
Jesus Christ, stop with all the fucking cinematic universes already. I seriously can't wait for the day when Disney stops doing the MCU and the rest of Hollywood decides to focus on making normal movies again instead of focusing on retarded crossovers and big event specials and all that shit.

Still one of the best Ghibli movies, way better than Princess Overrated at least. It also shits on every American coming of age/romance movie I've seen.

For a non-Illumination animated movie, that's quite cheap. WIR2 cost $175m and Incredibles 2 cost $200m.

When the original was one of the highest-grossing movies of the year? Yes.

>I guess Disney can't do what they want anymore in China
The original release made it the highest-grossing foreign film in Chinese history, you ninny.

Over the past few years there are these CG movies that come and go with literally the only notable thing about them being the ridiculous amount of advertising they get. Both SLOP films are this, the advertising budget they have must be fucking insane as I can't stop hearing about it everywhere I go.

We haven't continued it, we have been fighting a losing war of self-defense.

user, we *know* what happens when studios don't spend $100m+ on an animated movie: you get the entire output of Illumination.

They get the idea from Marvel and DC. Who's the real culprit?

Mostly just the low budget movies like Ma and Booksmart. For blockbusters, obviously Endgame did well. John Wick underperformed from what I've heard, and Aladdin is overperforming. Pretty much anything Disney-related is making money, and anything non-Disney-related is flopping or underperforming. What a disappointing summer. Disney needs more competition. They basically have a monopoly on the movie industry.

>Did anyone else forget this movie came out?
I barely remember that it ever existed at all.

It's less about logic and more about how arbitrary everything feels. Why do her parents suddenly start eating the food? Why does this make them turn into pigs? How is she able to recognize at the end none of the pigs are her parents? Why is there suddenly a backstory between Chihiro and Haku? What IS the deal with No-Face? What's going on with the train? Why does Yubaba have a giant baby? Like another user said, it's very dream-like in its presentation of "and now THIS happens, just accept it, moving on."

>EVERYTHING this summer is crashing
Except Disney movies. Endgame massively overperformed and Aladdin is overpeforming too.

This. Barring extreme circumstances which can only happen today specifically there is no way I want to see this movie.

>digits
I’m not going to say it’s the best. But they did an amazing job making a teenage girl that so many people could relate to.

That' why I can't wait for the MCU to wrap up for good. Once it finishes, things can go back to normal, where every movie has to set up this character or this team and then they crossover.

>You're forgetting that the number 4 is considered unlucky in eastern cultures.
is it their version of number 13?

Well of course, it IS a Chinese animation.

Imagine comparing Disney and Ghibli

This is how other countries think about America by the way.

It's doing slightly worse than Incredibles 2 and Finding Dory but about as well as Toy Story 3. Any other movie would be thrilled to have Toy Story 4's numbers but it won't make any records nor is it kicking ass like Aladdin's box office performance. Truth of it is that the movie scene is dying and streaming services are taking its spot.

Not really. A Doraemon 3D movie was successful in China.
Chinks literally "pretend" to hate Japan because of their hivemind. But its really weak even compared to, for instance, the Japan hate of American SJWs on Twitter and media.

And CCP has changed their foreign policy since a few years ago cause they have had trouble with the west, especially America. On top of that, Chink normies are starting to be woke because their trips to Japan were so good lel. Now half of them love Japan.
Its a true story. Heres the article published by CCPs media. So its official.
j.people.com.cn/n3/2018/1012/c94473-9508039.html

At least it won't flop as hard Detective Pikachu did.

I still need to watch Promare, but considering I love Dead Leaves, TTGL, PSG and KLK, I would not be shocked to find out I love it too.

>that meymey again

It doesn’t translate to death, the words just sound the same (they’re both pronounced “shi” btw)... Actually why do they sound the same? Why in the 400 yrs Modern Japanese has the pronunciation of 4 not shifted away from “shi”? Maybe I’m not understanding how language but personally if English’s numbers went one, two, three, murder, five, six, I’d hope SOMEONE would try to change that

he hates america more than anything else lel. resetera faggots recently got butthurt by that, being massive american nationalists, despite being "liberal" lololol

and he was heavily commie leaning when he was young.

who loves and accepts china under the ccp anyway. ofc your arrogant amerimutt big companies love chink money tho.

you need more effort.

I love Ghibli's coming of age stories. They seem to do it so well. Something that the west sorely lacks in their youth media.

When Netflix started making money all the companies started demanding more money for the rights to stream their IPs and/or took them away to make their own shitty streaming services.

TLDR We had a good thing and then fuckers got greedy.

Nobody cares anymore because disney sells on the name alone.

Great, streaming and other cloud shit has to fucking die.

Yeah, I made shit like that when I was a kid and they were gone days later because they fell apart fast and real toys were way cooler.

Miyazaki is a hack,there movies doesn't make sense with the plot being the worst aspect of there movies. Spirited away is a example of that,the ending doesn't make any logical sense with the rest of the movie.

We know it will and we knew that from the beginning
We'll just shit on it failing in China and any failings of this shitty movie along the way

Detective Conan always curb stomps anything but unfortunately I don't think they ever rerelease it, it's just a Golden Week thing. In August Singapore is doing some 4D rerelease but I don't think it goes further than Singapore.

Whew! Crisis averted. If TS4 turned into a boxoffice smash hit, half of the Yea Forums summerfags would be out shooting up their schools right about now. Give 'em all another round of Ritalin. lol

I mean, Disney does bad sequels. Especially bad princess movie sequels. Frozen 2 will be shit. It wont make as much as the first but probably enough to do better than a Hidden world.

The monkey faces are a worse aspect.

Serves the Mouse right!

They did the same thing back in 1997. They re-released The Little Mermaid for 2 WEEKS ONLY on the same weekend that FOX tried releasing their first Princess movie Anastasia.

Japan fucking loved Frozen. That was huge over there.

It might be the crash that makes people realize you're going to need a new generation of talent. The sad realization is that all that talent went to YouTube (for the wave of animators back in the early 2010's) and porn commissions for living wages

This might have been true if they weren't about to reap the seeds they'd sown during their workers' revolution. The one child policy effects are about to kick in with the oldest generation being the largest, a new middle class is experiencing its first true economic stagnation, and all the peasants now able to connect via the internet and figure out their government is using a social credit system to unfairly keep everyone in line.

There's a reason they made Xi president for life and start acting aggressive militarily. They need to.
