A New ANIMATION STUDIO Has Appeared...

[@ComicalRealm]

These are the type of animated films I want more of, where its audience isn't treated idiotically, and can entertain both children and adults.

[@drdewott9154]

Yes! I mean that's what makes a family feature after all. I mean in that case I think I can reccomend the Checkered Ninja movies from Denmark or perhaps Ronal the Barbarian. They're a tad raunchy compared to British and American studios especially but are pretty good at striking that balance with a lot of heart within. Danish animation in general while lower quality due to their small budgets does often seem good at striking that balance.

R.I.P. Blue Sky, the majority of their films were really good. One that really stood out to me was Rio. We don't get a lot of movies about birds. Edit: plenty of people are saying stuff like “go watch happy feet” or something, just saying there aren’t a lot of movies about birds, especially if you compare it to the amount of movies about mammals there really isn’t enough. Reptiles and fish suffer the same fate. Also a lot of movies about birds are inaccurate or bad/meh/not rewatchable like happy feet and the angry birds movie 2 (ok I’ll admit it I liked the angry birds movie, people call it terrible but it is a decent film. In the 2nd movie Red falls in love with silver who is a different species of bird, also it is angry birds not love birds! Edit: that was a really long edit

[@elmono6299]

Not Blue Sky studios related but If you want a good animated movie about birds. I highly recommend Leafie a hen into the wild. It is a hand drawn Korean animated film based on a children's novel about a hen who escaped from a farm to leave out in the meadows to raise an orphan duckling who's parents got killed by a vicious hungry weasel. It is a very well done film for its beautiful animation and environments, great cast of characters, heart warming story, some surprisingly dark moments for a childerns film, and a few funny moments such as visual gags & toilet humor (no really). It's like the Korean counterpart to Bambi and the Land before Time. Overall I highly recommend watching the original Korean dub of the movie as the English dub changes some of the characters names, dialogue, and cuts scenes out like one major toilet joke and the original ending (to be fair, there are 2 versions of the Korean version with one having the original ending and the other one not). But yes! If you love birds then this movie is a must. 🌼🐔🦆🦦

Ron's Gone Wrong is one of those movies I was super skeptical about. The animation in the beginning and me worried (simply due to the art style being similar to others that were milked dry), but it was surprisingly relatable. I'm 20, so past middle school, but I think there's a lot of realism to this movie that I can relate to. The popular girl who acts nice to appear nice but is really just mean, the prankster guy who doesn't understand he isn't as funny as he thinks he is, ext. It's very nice, and I'm happy to hear the word "hell" in a kids movie again

As someone trying to break into the UK animation industry, it's so nice that there's a new studio around that are making feature films instead of TV shows (something the UK is best known for in animation), I hope more companies like Locksmith emerge and provide more opportunities for aspiring animators and artists!

Watched the movie today, I found it very touching, especially the ending.

The trailer reminds me less of Mitchells vs the machines and more of the highly underrated "next gen" movie

This was my favourite movie of this year and it has the same people working on it as my favourite Christmas movie Arthur Christmas

I was surprised to hear part of the SimCity soundtrack for the background music of this video. A small touch I don't know if a lot of people will notice, nice.

This deal with between Double Negative and Locksmith Animation is still a thing, and DNEG was providing animation services for their future movies. They worked on "Ron's Gone Wrong" and it was their first collaboration with Locksmith.

i know i'm two years late but i finally decided to watch RGW and it was actually very good! the entire end with Ron in the woods was incredibly well done actually! I could feel the emotion in the scenes, the way he began to break down when Ron ran out of battery and The panic attack he had that triggered his asthma (and how that made his rescue from the woods even more important)

The slightly shaking camera was a nifty touch that made it a bit more lively.
