    Something about my favorite movie in 2024???? 9 is so underrated and it deserved so much more. I am so sad we will never get anything more from this amazing universe especially since the company that made it went under years ago

    • @theorist
      @theorist  Před 26 dny +9

      very underrated honestly

    • @cathleenmoyle1476
      @cathleenmoyle1476 Před 18 dny

      That's for the best. I love this movie, and its characters, but that's exactly why I don't want a sequel. Not having a sequel is the best thing 9 and his friends can honestly get.

      I had the same thought! I absolutely love this movie

    Remember finding out about this film in a super obscure way. Back in 2009 there was a niche community that made fake film trailers, I remember a fake trailer had the audio of the 9 film trailer. I got curious since it sounded interesting, looked for it, and found the trailer. Then I waited until September for the film to come out

  • @PixiePrincess501

    The really sad part is that so many movies that got a cult following started out as earning very low on the Box Office revenue, so sequels to movies that eventually got a big audience may never create a sequel for us.
    There are so many underrated gems out there that we won't see more of their stories and world building just because they were too ahead of their time.
    But we can still hope, at least.

    I loved navigating the website before the domain was lost. It was super interactive and had loads of unseen lore

    Such an underrated film that I thought was so fucking cool as I grew up.
    I desperately want a sequel, focus entertainment please let it happen.

    I remember coming across the original short film before the full length version was a thing and being completely blown away by it. The fact that one guy created it by teaching himself 3d animation sparked something in me that caused me to get into 3d animation myself (in like 2006/2007 or so, before 3d animation was much of a thing you could easily pursue). I used to show that short film to everyone I could. Haha. Other than some beautifully animated sequences (and an amazing trailer), I was actually kind of disappointed in the final film when it first came out. It still holds a special place in my heart, though. I should throw it on again later today. Great video!

    I loved this movie from the day it came out .....showed my wife the movie when we got together because she somehow missed it and she loved it too i think people werent ready for it when it came out

    9 was always my favorite movie, and seeing you again here is such a joy to my person, seriously thanks!

  • @QueenOfFails
    @QueenOfFails Před 26 dny +9

    Does anyone else remember the character cards at the comic-con conventions? You'd scan the code on your phone, and it would show a 3d model of the characters

    • @theorist
      @theorist  Před 26 dny +6

      i had no idea they made character cards, thats fire

    • @QueenOfFails

      Yes, I am currently trying to access my files on old laptop, but trying to not get my hopes up though. Would you like to see the screenshots and images?

    • @QueenOfFails
      @QueenOfFails Před 26 dny +3

      They where convention only which was a shame. Back in 2009 some where for sale on places like ebay, dont know if they are now

  • @jasonblundelldobebussing
    @jasonblundelldobebussing Před 26 dny +4

    5:24 partly. Thing is: 30mil is without budget on marketing + fee that cinemas take (about 50% from a ticket), which means if you're movie made 48mil, you only get 29.

    God this was my hyperfixation back in 2009. Fun Fact: I actually met Elijah Wood at ComicCon when they were advertising for the movie. 3, 4, and 6 were my favorite Stitchpunks. Sad it never got a sequel. It's one of my favorite movies.

  • @demontamerbf18
    @demontamerbf18 Před 25 dny +4

    I love 9, but after seeing what happened with Megamind and its "sequel", I think I'm okay with the people behind it not making a sequel

    WE WERE GONNA GET A SEQUEL??? I LOVED 9 AS A KID

  • @vaporegaster5882
    @vaporegaster5882 Před 26 dny +1

    9 has been my favorite movie since middle school, I remember drawing my own characters for a spinoff I had in my own head that followed a different group in the story made by a seperate scientist. Something abouta movie with a post apocolyptic world that didnt star Humans, and instead had these little characters that came after was so amazing and its so far to see films without humans at all (besides one being the scientist). Ive accepted we may never get a sequal but Ill always love it and Ill always believe in Shane Acker getting another chance to either make a sequel or a new movie himself because he has a creative mind.

  • @marcjoseph1577
    @marcjoseph1577 Před 14 dny

    @ 5:29 the main reason for why studios say this is because of marketing budgets, those aren’t typically publicized but it costs a lot to market films, usually the marketing budget is equal to the production budget depending on the studio and or project and that’s why films aren’t considered profitable until they make more than that.
    Plus the amount of revenue theaters take.

  • @dgreener78
    @dgreener78 Před 12 hodinami

    Even though this movie scared me so much when I was younger I think it deserves a sequel because it’s so good in all aspects like story and animation and just being revolutionary

  • @vectorwolf
    @vectorwolf Před 20 dny +1

    I saw this in the theater, and it was really special. Not the big-eyed sanitized pablum the big studios have been peddling to the masses for decades. It also wasn't grimdark just for edgy teen appeal either.
    This and Dark City are among my favorite movies, for similar reasons.

  • @ashlynseymour8030
    @ashlynseymour8030 Před 9 dny

    Shane Acker expressed wanting there to be a sequel. 9 to this day is still my favorite movie just because of the uniqueness of the characters, if it's possible I think Shane Acker should get the rights back to 9 somehow or start making some noise for focus features so people will start paying attention.

  • @jasonblundelldobebussing
    @jasonblundelldobebussing Před 26 dny +1

    There was a SEQUEL? As in "9²"?! I remember Глуховский re-writing the script of the original movie for Russian audience, maybe he knows something.

    I’ve never seen this movie, the only thing I remember was Coheed and Cambria’s Welcome Home being in the trailer I think. That song is great.

  • @kevinlockhart2000
    @kevinlockhart2000 Před 13 dny

    If a sequel could never happen, they can always start over, make a tv show retelling the story of the first movie as season 1 of the tv show, and make something new with second season and beyond.

    I never really knew anyone else in real life that watched 9. It was just sort of a thing that I had loved, but nobody else to really share it with. Once I got more onto the internet a few years later, I realized there was an actual following for it. I wish we could just get something more for it.

    I remember watching this movie back in 2018 or 19 and low key forgot the plot of it. But what I remember from my brain rotting mind that me and my cousin which who I watch with like the plot even tho I don’t remember much a lot. I would love to rewatch 9 sometime in the near future

  • @PoochieWooch
    @PoochieWooch Před 18 dny

    We'd be lucky if the sequel was in comic book form. Which is not necessarily a bad thing. i mean, I've heard nothing but praise for the unofficial sequel comics to movies like The Thing,The Warriors,and Jurassic Park. But back to 9, and I'm still blown away, watching as an adult years after watching as a kid. The many allegories towards Nazis the Holocaust and Christianity(specifically catholicism)are all over the place.

  • @latviandragon2718

  • @cathleenmoyle1476
    @cathleenmoyle1476 Před 18 dny

    A 9 sequel isn't what I hope for it's what I'm dreading. I love this movie and its characters... but that's exactly why I don't want one, for their sake. These characters have suffered enough, and the ending did them so dirty.

  • @AliceAXP

    I love the movie I was just disappointed that Coheed & Cambria music was nowhere since they advertised the movie using their music and the whole device looks like it takes massive inspiration from Coheeds "keywork" design.
    With the modern state of movie industry and then trying to push some stupid agenda no one cares about I don't want a sequel to be made bc they undoubtedly stuff a bunch of stupid politics and gender crap into it that will cause it to flop hard like everything they put out nowadays.

    • @FlyForAWhiteTy
      @FlyForAWhiteTy Před 15 dny

      Why would one male scientist's soul spit out a woman piece without it being "gender crap" come on now dude. You're the one who changed, authors stayed honest and showed you more truth you didn't like. Bury your head deeper in the sand I guess but it will never bring you love and care like you need ya know. I used to dismiss Coheed as "just a sad guy just a normal totally safe trustworthy sad guy" music because fan base behavior, then listened to them and was like well fuck this gets my inner just a dude just a guy going and realized there was more there to get out of it and appreciate.
