Havn't seen it yet. The main character visually reminds me a little too much of a younger version of Pocahontas and there just isn't anything all that unique about her. I live out in the sticks and just don't get out to see many movies and I'm just not seeing anything that makes me want to do the drive to go see it. Especially when I can wait and it'll be in Walmart inside of six months.
The fact that last month, Disney made one of the greatest short films ever (Once Upon A Studio), which was a perfect tribute to the Walt Disney company, only for the month after, they screw it up with Wish. It such a shame. Disney had all the right ingredients to make a good film, but they just ignored them and made them worse.
I can't avoid thinking of how good it would have been if they make their 100th film in that style, like Kingdoms hearts but respecting every character OG art style. Like the plot could have been about the main characters traveling to different worlds (movies) to stop the villain or even just to collect different pieces from an article that together make something great.
It would have made this movie an event worth seeing though. First 2D animated Disney movie in over a decade, on Disney’s 100th anniversary? That absolutely would have gotten people into the theater, and it may have done decently at the box office.
@@fatcat22ableYeah but, unless they didn’t remove the good ideas from the film it wouldn’t have been loved and if they rereleased it it wouldn’t be successful when it comes back.
If it didn’t have the corporate meddling it did, not only would it have been 2D, but it would have also had a Disney villain power couple, the star would have been a shapeshifter that could talk, and explain how the magic worked instead of being vague and confusing
I thought it was mediocre, but the fact that this was supposed to be the celebration of the 100th year anniversary for Disney, just makes it more disappointing.
I would just like to say as someone who was born after Disney’s golden era and has no nostalgic memories to it-this is completely correct. If you ask me they should completely drop the cgi. Hand drawn animation is art-it feel personal and you know that there was effort put in. CGI just feels like..a computer. But mixing them can be definitely done well if it’s done right. This movie had potential but it it didn’t reach it. I sense some corporate decision making here
I honestly loved what we got, but I can definitely see the shortcomings. I honestly love the watercolor style, and appreciated their attempt to combine 2-D and 3-D. But I totally understand where people are coming from. It doesn’t always mesh the way I think they meant it to. One person mentioned that the characters seem to blend into the background instead of standing out. “Klaus” combined the medium as well, because it started with 2-D and added the 3-D for dimension, textures, and lighting. “Paperman” succeeded because it started as 3-D and was traced over with 2-D. “Nimona” took a stylized approach, while still remaining obviously CG. And that one actually involved the same person who did that short film for Disney about a dog with a food theme. Ultimately, I want to see where they go next, but they need to get themselves out of the rut they are in.
Next video: Fixing Wish. I was sort of planning on making a d&d character modeled off of the story. All the elements seem like they're there they just need a through line
I once saw a video by somebody who says they worked at disney, and it's not just that they aren't willing to do a 2d movie, they apparently aren't able. According to this person, Disney doesn't even have the equipment for 2D anymore and a lot of that equipment is expensive or just not easily accessible. If I find the video I will put the channel name in the comments. It was a while ago. But it sounds like they couldn't do it even if they wanted to.
I haven't seen the movie, nor I intend to, since I have my plate full with catching up to 50 years of another, completely different media that is unrelated to this(Trek), but in any case. From what I read, from what I see, and from this review, the problem with Wish is that it's Half-measures: the movie, you mentioned Shrek as a better example, and I think Shrek works because it was willing to be audacious with its mockery, satirizing some known tropes of fairy tales while still being commited to play some of them straight. So if Wish wanted to be a genre throwback or a celebration of Disney's animation, then it should have dedicated itself to embrace the charm of the old Disney movies instead of just constantly referencing them. The animation itself is a Half-measure too, since instead of actually using 2D animation, it just attempts to evoke the classic animation feel with CGI, which does not work if it's not willing to actually look like classic animation, when Spiderverse did it, every frame of that movie *looked* like something out of a comic book, despite the movie having a 3D look. I know it's not fair to play the comparison schtick, but if a movie is going to be mostly just a canvas full of references to better content, then I call it fair game.
So would it being 2D have helped the movie? Possibly, at least that way the references would have evoked nostalgia instead of reminding you of better movies you could be watching.
It's dissapointing to see how the media condemning a movie before it releases can make it dead on arrival, the same happened this very year with Meet the Gillmans. I don't intend to watch it, because I never wanted to in the first place, but it's kind of a screwed up thing to root for a product to be bad.
Imagine there is a shop owner who hates you for no real reason(you never did anything to him) and thinks he is owned your money. Would you not want to see that jerk failing?
The money part. This is what gets me angry. People keep saying "oh, but animation is expensive. That's why the cartoon was canceled" And I get that....but this is Disney. Money is literally not a problem for them. It can't be, not when they own cruise ships, numerous theme parks, and buy out the competition like its a game. If small teams on the internet can make quality animation using funds generated from donations and merch sales, then there is no excuse for Disney. Apples and Oranges sure. But if this is the kind of apples Disney wants to put out, then I will gladly start eating oranges.
The budget for Disney movies is also hugely over-inflated, I know the following example is not one-to-one since animation and live action are different, but the Japanese Godzilla movie was made with less than a tenth of the budget that Wish ostensibly had, and it boasts amazing special effects, so the whole budget discussion is starting to sound to me like an excuse to waste money and pretend to care about movies.
@@botluckproductions So if they did the sensible thing and complete the script before shooting the movie they wouldn't go into the hundred million mark? Honestly I believe it
If Disney wanted to do a movie with 2D animated aesthetics with 3D animation like Puss in Boots Last Wish or the Spider-Verse, well they clearly failed their homework.
Yeah, Mr. Enter feels that nowadays, the only 2D animated movies are ones based on 2D animated tv shows. He once said that literally the only 3D animated film that he thought needed to be 3D was Wreck-It Ralph.
I would disagree on Wish relying on an outdated formula. That said, Disney has done something like you suggested before. Many of their films from the Disney Renaissance era, particularly Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, were traditionally animated with some CG backgrounds. If Disney brought that style back, they just might get my money again.
Disney made its brand by taking risks, got rich, and refused to take risks ever since. I would argue the last risk they ever took was the era of Treasure Planet and Atlantis, and while they’re remembered fondly they were seen as box office failures. If Disney wanted to really honor their legacy instead of playing to the nostalgia of Disney Adults, they would have tried something truly new and experimental.
Also, if they really wanted to honor the old legacy in the movie, they could have copied the older styles. Line up the first 5 heroines and the last five heroines of Disney Animated Movies. Where does our heroine fit with? Do the same with the villains, where does our villain fit?
I'm ngl i tried to watch the movie and lemme tell u it was such a waste like the entire time during the movie i was questiong the WHOLE time ..... WHERE WAS THE 2D 💀💀💀💀
Actually thinking about it, the storybook title card looks REALLY weird cause of the recent thing of boiling Disney titles down to a single word “tangled” for Rapunzel, and “frozen” for the snow queen.
Apparently Disney was cutting things so close to the wire what with rewrites and crap for this movie, they only had THREE MONTHS to render the animation ENOUGH to make it PASSABLE. So what we're seeing could possibly be not a stylistic choice but one of desperation to rush the movie to theaters.
Fun fact: The "reason" why it is more expensive to make 2D animated movies for Disney isn't due to the production. It is more due to 2D animators actually having a union. (or well, used to notsure if that is still is still around) That is why they switched to 3D mostly.
Their recent 3D movies still end up having a higher budget than their last 2D ones (not to mention other 2D movies that are being created worldwide, look the masterpiece that is Klaus with its mere $40 million budget). Their last 2D princess movie, The Princess and the Frog, cost $105 million - definitely less than Wish whose budget was like $200 million or so. So I don't understand why people say 2D movies are more expensive. Isn't what they pay the animators (and other staff members) included in these numbers or something?
@@M_JackOfAllTrades We don't really know. It isn't the production that costs, we know that for sure. There are rumours of money laundering, and i would NOT be surprised if that was the case. But yeah, 2D movies LOOK better and are by now cheaper to make. They have no excuse.
@@tnecniw I just don't understand why everyone says 2D is more expensive when the only evidence we have says otherwise... I do also like 3D animation, at least what it looks like now in good quality productions, but 2D deserves to continue being created. It's such a shame that big studios in the West don't do it anymore save for some TV series and occasional shorts. You are right, as much as I love Disney they have no excuse for that, same as other big studios that definitely have the money. Disney's The Little Mermaid live action remake cost $300 million - they could have easily spent that money on producing 2 or even 3 2D animated movies. I can only hope one day they take that financial risk and the movies are successful so they can see their audience still appreciates traditional animation.
It's kind of upsetting thinking perhaps a majority of people had lower expectations for Wish before it came out, I was excited from what we saw! Only after seeing it do I feel less upbeat...
I knew I wasn't the only one who thought this! If it's the 100th Disney Film and you're trying to honor the past, why not make it 2D Animated. Just like the past. Also, there are still many problems with Wish. So even it it was 2D, it was animated. There would still be a lot of problems *cough* *cough* The Kings Song *cough* *cough* plot *cough* *cough*
But here's the issue: Little Mermaid made more money than Wish did. We ask Disney to experiment with their animations, to make more original animated films, etc. and yet when the time comes to put our money where our mouth is, we instead give money to their remakes. As a buisness, anyone would see the failure of Wish and the success of Little Mermaid (2023) as an indication that audiences prefer the remakes over animated films.
@@andrewdowns3673 Yeah. Tho I'd argue that in the little mermaid's case its the mix of nostalgia and the attention it got on the internet and people who watch remakes just to make fun of them. But Disney should still ask themselves why Spiderverse, Puss in boots, Elemental and Nimona made just as much cash, if not more and were well received by audiences.
Thank you for reminding me that Paperman exists, its a very underrated short. Its honestly kind of sad but well deserved that Disney's new movie is this bland and uninspired. The fact that they have so much money but don't bother to spend it on their animated movies wisely just goes to show how far Disney has fallen. TL; DR Disney deserves the hate and we should all just stick to Netflix or Sony
Imma be honest, even though it was filled with references and the concept was revealed before couldn't save this movie. Sure when I watched it in the cinema it was fine, but that's it. The half assed watercolour style they went for was just not at all good, the music... outside of the vocal performance of the main characters Va, went from alright to dogshit (we don't talk about that sad excuse of an AI generated villains song), and the incoherent story that did not flow together, or make sense.. oh and literally ripped the exact same generic formula from their previous successes in the laziest way notice how the first scene plays out exactly the same as both Frozen and Encanto....
Wouldn't have made much difference in my opinion, sure it would have been better to look at and it would have been a true homage to old Disney movies, but the story would have still been terrible...
I’m glad they didn’t though. Cause if the movie had the same crappy writing and flopped in the box office like it is currently, executives would say it’s BECAUSE it’s 2D that it’s failing and continue swearing off from it.
@@inactivehorse9753 What made Disney so great in the 90's is that no one could come close, Anastasia was the one exception. Now a days there is too much competition, and it may have destroyed Disney's courage to take risks.
After 100 years and herd of same face, cute-boring, princesses we deserve to have finally PROPER KING. Magnifco should be main protagonist who saves the world from temper tantrum of arrogant, entitled extremist who thinks she knows better. Then it could be redemption and student mentor relationship.
What was woke about the movie? No one who has seen it said any of it was woke. Mediocre or bad, but not woke. Movies can just be bad and not have a shred of woke in them my guy.
I don't think about this and say "HOI THIS IZ NO 2D ANIME SO NO WAQ" Instead, I just sit down, and look at a nice little movie, that makes me happy. CZcamsrs out there who want to see us stop talking about drama and FINALLY be happy again, copy and paste this comment! I need to spread the word!
That is irrelevant to the conversation. Is the movie bad or good? Does the animation look bad or good? I don't have time to mindlessly watch bad, unfinished looking movies so I want to know if they are bad so I can avoid them and watch a good movie. Bad movies make me angry when I watch them, because I am constantly thinking how much better they could be. If you can watch bad movies and enjoy them that's great! But those of us who can't find Mad's input helpful. A movie review isn't 'drama'. Movies are not human beings. We have every right to criticise them, and you have every right to enjoy it despite that. You do not have the right to tell others not to criticise sub par movies. Movies will never get better if we accept bad ones mindlessly. They will just get worse.
@@1faithchick7 It does say in the description this is a spoiler free video for the movie. To be fair, there's no way of knowing whether a movie is good or bad to you unless you...watch it. Relying on other people to tell you whether something is worth watching kinda means you're not thinking for yourself. Take chances, watch stuff you've never heard of before.
Right out the gate people were ready to hate this movie. What did you think of Wish when you saw it?
I LOVED IT

You asked what the message of the movie was. The message was: Please by more Disney merchandise.
2:47 OMG, yes! Finally somone noticed that!
I always prefer 2d animation rather than 3d, although I know it's harder to do I feel it gives you a more satisfying and beautiful result

@@inactivehorse9753 What made Disney so great in the 90's is that no one could come close, Anastasia was the one exception. Now a days there is too much competition, and it may have destroyed Disney's courage to take risks.
After 100 years and herd of same face, cute-boring, princesses we deserve to have finally PROPER KING. Magnifco should be main protagonist who saves the world from temper tantrum of arrogant, entitled extremist who thinks she knows better. Then it could be redemption and student mentor relationship.
The movie is too woke to be saved by 2D xD
What was woke about it?
What was woke about the movie? No one who has seen it said any of it was woke. Mediocre or bad, but not woke. Movies can just be bad and not have a shred of woke in them my guy.
Are you just using the term woke without knowing what the word means?
Oh, that's for sure. Nothing's even worth watching, not even this channel, as you can see by the reply.
I don't think about this and say "HOI THIS IZ NO 2D ANIME SO NO WAQ"
Instead, I just sit down, and look at a nice little movie, that makes me happy.
CZcamsrs out there who want to see us stop talking about drama and FINALLY be happy again, copy and paste this comment! I need to spread the word!
Go touch grass.
That is irrelevant to the conversation. Is the movie bad or good? Does the animation look bad or good? I don't have time to mindlessly watch bad, unfinished looking movies so I want to know if they are bad so I can avoid them and watch a good movie. Bad movies make me angry when I watch them, because I am constantly thinking how much better they could be. If you can watch bad movies and enjoy them that's great! But those of us who can't find Mad's input helpful. A movie review isn't 'drama'. Movies are not human beings. We have every right to criticise them, and you have every right to enjoy it despite that. You do not have the right to tell others not to criticise sub par movies. Movies will never get better if we accept bad ones mindlessly. They will just get worse.
@@1faithchick7 It does say in the description this is a spoiler free video for the movie. To be fair, there's no way of knowing whether a movie is good or bad to you unless you...watch it. Relying on other people to tell you whether something is worth watching kinda means you're not thinking for yourself. Take chances, watch stuff you've never heard of before.
