Soulful original has the clouds breaking open and shining rays of light down on Simba...

the one in the right looks more realistic and the one on the left looks like a cartoon for kids

They even changed Pride Rock's appearance. That shit is iconic, why they hell would they change it?

Remember that the lion king is a ripoff of the white lion

>completely missing the point

It's literally just a cash grab. It's straight on point.

>soulful original has a mellow, soft color palette to match the easy-going musical number
>soulless remake has harsh midday sun beating down on a mostly green scene with characters that have a stiff, cautious gait, contrary to the musical number

These movies are super cheap to make.

>Budget - $183 million

Don't under-estimate how stupidly expensive modern films are, despite how cheap and shitty they look.

Soulful is a lame word to use, because it comes with too many connotations of a particular quality that doesn't apply, but I know what it's supposed to be referring to here.

Honestly I don't think there is a sufficient word for it... one might say 'life', but what if something is cold and deathly and still relevant and interesting. Vital doesn't quite work either because a work might actively use a kind of flat or empty quality to good effect.

There really isn't exactly a term that cab adequately define or explain the gamut of art that 'works'. Even 'works' is faulty in its implications. And I'm not even trying to be totally relevatist... I think there is better art and worse art, but it can't necessarily always be accounted for in the same formal or conceptual terms.

wow, these look really bad. wtf do people pay to see this shit? who the fuck thinks cgi > traditional animation?

All that terrible CGI cost a lot of money.

This honestly seems the dumbest fucking thing I've seen a studio do.

Uncanny Valley.

WHY DO THEY NEED TO USE CGI LOCATIONS AT ALL? GO TO AFRICA AND POINT THE CAMERA AT REAL SHIT.

These movies are made because it's cheap as fuck to pay a handful of indian CGI sweatshops, shooting on location would defeat the purpose

Each shot is being done based on key frames from a story board. If the key frame doesn’t look good as a single frame, then it won’t look impressive in motion either.

The BBC once made a drama by filming a pride of lions, cutting the footage into a story and getting Sean Bean and some other actors to voice act. It was pretty interesting and I don't think I've ever seen anything like that done since.

How does actual documentary footage manage to look closer to the colorful and bright cartoon than the soulless CGI fuckfest?

>Matthew Broderick believed initially that he was, in fact, working on an American version of Kimba since he was familiar with the Japanese original.[111] The Lion King director Roger Allers claimed complete unfamiliarity with the show until the movie was almost completed, and did not remember it being ever mentioned during development.[112] However, Allers had previously lived in Tokyo and worked in animation there during the 1980s, when Tezuka had already become known as "Japan's Walt Disney" and a remake of Kimba was airing on prime time television.

>Animators Tom Sito and Mark Kausler, who both have story credits, have admitted to watching Kimba, and assumed many of their colleagues had too, especially if they grew up in the 1960s.

>The 1994 release of The Lion King drew a protest in Japan, where Kimba and its creator Osamu Tezuka are cultural icons. 488 Japanese cartoonists and animators, led by manga author Machiko Satonaka, signed a petition accusing Disney of plagiarism and demanding that they give due credit to Tezuka.

>bad animation is a Jewish conspiracy
Go outside, man.

The Japanese to this day insist that it's a rip off of Kimba, even in their news articles about this remake.

>"original"

How about heart? The original Lion King looks like someone making it gave a rat's ass. The remake looks like what most movies are right now, a movie outsourced to a bunch of CGI dudes sitting on his chairs hating their jobs.

Because animation in the west is a meme. People have lived with the idea that animation=cartoons=kids. Not like the realistic CGI stuff though that’s for grown ups like me :^)

Nearly every traditionally drawn animated movie has flopped since the early 2000s. Also, iirc the lion king actually has cg elements (like the wildebeest stampede scene)

what is that? a scar?

Honestly would prefer if they went the "Mowgli" route so that the characters have distinct looks, personality, and actual acting even if it isn't photorealistic

...uh.....come on guys....its just a coincidence,,,,,lol fuck me. imagine thinking nobody would notice.

>implying they could even make the clouds if they wanted

Traditional animation was killed by the kikes when they realized they could make soulless 3d garbage for half the cost and half the time. 2d is a dead artform now, because all the skilled artists are dead and there's no reason for anybody new to learn it anymore.

Well there ARE scenes that are almost shot for shot the same

Is this just a shot for shot remake using realistic-looking CGI animals? If so I don't really get the point. It's like rereleasing an old video game with new graphics.

Just consume product and get excited for new product

All of these shitty live action films are just cash ins. Nobody with any self respect actually watches them.

> divine right as king of the jungle
I'm glad enlightened shows like GoT demonstrates how that's all nonsense and no one has the right to rule a people against their consent, simply because they defer to providence as evidence to rule. Monarchies, traditions, cultures, they're all outdated forms of controls of the past that wants people to blindly follow their example. To hell with all of it.

i clapped, kekked, and cackled

Cope

disney closed there traditional animation studio back in the early 00s. everything has been cel-shaded 3D since. cgi can be tastefully integrated for impactful scenes, like the wildebeests you mentioned, or something like the intro to Ghost in the Shell. and fully cgi movies aren't awful just because they are cgi. it's just they have completely displaced traditional animation. i think the selling point for producers is a more homogeneous product and ultimate control over every detail, but consequences are that movie makers seem to be regressing in terms of basic cinematography and that when people are responsible for too much detail they tend to make things look off-puttingly fake.

animation is interesting to look at because it doesn't look like real-life but mimics it. somehow realistic cgi fails to do even that

Don't they just remake these dumpster piles to extend the copyright

I suppose the mouse would rather lose millions butchering classics than risk having people make content with their characters

Would that in any way effect Disneyland and places like?

I’m not gonna pay full fuckin price for a movie ticket and sit in a theater for 2 hours just to watch a lazily drawn cartoon that I could see at home on tv. At least with this new shit I’m amused by the visuals at what modern technology can give us.

Has anyone here even seen this shit?

>I’m amused by the visuals at what modern technology can give us
are you really impressed by special effects anymore?

No. Not even weebs watch that garbage.

I've saw most of the original 60's series if not all of it when I was a kid, there's things the Lion King absolutely knocked off, but they're very different stories for the most part

They treated WIlliams like shit when they made the first Aladdin, why would they suddenly stop?

Man the live action creators clearly have no understanding of color theory or composition. Blur your eyes and look at the two bottom pics. So much more emotion is conveyed by the left when you lose detail.

>consent of the governed

Literal autism. The only reason why the "divine right of kings" is stupid is because it's wrong. Might makes right and real politik is the only correct view of governance. The chinks were right.

But that would require creativity

kek, why do you need to know color theory when you just click render

>realistic look
who the fuck decided that was a good idea?

nihilistic millennials who are being fast tracked to positions of power to show how diverse everyone is now.

Saw in the theaters when I was 14 and its only few i still remember from then. It was amazing and people clapped when the beginning song ended. This was back when clapping was weird and I even remember my Dad telling me he's never heard people do that either. It was a really awesome day.

I'm not watching this shit even the shots ive seen are soul crushingly awful. Fuck you Disney.

MMMMMMM HONEY, YOUS FORGOTTING QUEEN BEY BEY.

Filters and photography

There are a lot of big names in the cast. Most of the budget is probably paying them and advertising firms.

The two are as tonally different as you can get. One episode of Kimba follows a secret agent from the human world coming to Africa and being hunted by an assassin in a rubber suit that can disguise him as a chair, floating ball or black panther. There are some striking similarities to the characters but they could have been coincidental imo.
