I co-sign that. This guy was really insightful and you could really tell his love for the medium. I absolutely love the idea of an anime episode, especially with him. Idk if you guys have done akira yet but if not that's a no Brainer. Also a good cg compared to bad episode would be interesting. Like comparing attack on titan to the new(bad) berserk series. Also any thing by studio gibli or masaaki yuasa. When it comes to anime i could go on for years but I rather use that energy to continue my campaign for the movie chocolate on stuntman react lol.

I want you to react to the CGI in _Garfield Gets Real_ (2007), because almost every movie reviewer says it’s sooo ugly they can’t stand it, but I just don’t see what’s so awful about it. So I want someone to explain it in more detail.

[@Slobbbb]

Animators happen to be ordinary, normal guys. They just have cool jobs lol

[@offchristianamr]

My favorite thing about Olaf is how much his segmented body contributes to the visual comedy. The three different snowballs that make his body are all different masses and have their own inertia; when he’s running and comes to a stop every snowball lurches forward a little bit by a different amount. I’ve always appreciated that detail

[@StickNik]

Love how around 11:04 Wren is just having a peek from upstairs and chilling.

[@betlogboy3]

This dude adds custom easter eggs for his kids in these movies. Cool dad!

[@kusalg]

didn't know that animators had this much freedom to animate and frame the shots as they like

[@PrograError]

it depends... if your production house is tight AF, you don't have the freedom. that and also stopmotion... that one is planned through like mad, there ain't gonna be a frames extra or short... and also depending on the types of production, if you're in a TV production, there ain't gonna time for much experimentation, especially in anime in japan...

[@manizer100]

no its not, trust me, I am an animator myself.

[@edwinisawesome]

Depends

[@Luna-gleam]

You only have freedom if you are good enough that the company trusts you to have that freedom. And of course you have to talk to a lot of people in case it messes up something.

[@sadface]

No doubt they have to make a concept first and show it to the bosses but once they get that approval it's all good. It makes sense to encourage that kind of creativity because you want to make the movie as good as it can be.

As a photographer I absolutely relate to that too.I mean, I have to plan the concept, scout locations when the shoot is outdoors, cast, shoot, edit, and retouch (Not to mention all the hard work the stylist, the makeup artist and the prop team do)... juuuuust to see more often than not how the model gets all the credit. 😂 😅

[@wiredforstereo]

Capitalism! Yeah, way too much credit. Way too much money. On the upside, lots of really good movies have been shot with unknown actors and been very successful. There are more than enough actors in this world. The only reason to use Tom Cruise or whoever is to try to goose the box office. I'm convinced it doesn't always work that well, money wise.

[@Lord_Poyo]

@@wiredforstereo Ah. I see we have another case of a "KZbin Expert". You clearly have no idea how difficult acting actually is. Let's not forget that a lot of animated movies nowadays use motion-capturing, which often times requires ACTORS.

For Bad Anime there's the infamous "Worst Anime Car Chase of All Time" from Episode 7 of Shinkyoku Soukai Polyphonica. For Good anime animation, The Yellow line Race from Redline. Pretty much all of Redline is absolutely amazing, but the Yellowline section is just great as a standalone scene.

My fav VFX set *jank tidbit* is from the first time Puss in Boots is met in the Shrek movies. Its a shot of him sitting at a table in a bar, with his bottom half visible, and his top half in shadow, with only his eyes visible. when they used the model as normal, the composition of the scene seemed off, *so they detached his head from his body* because they knew it would be in shadow. so when you see that scene, Puss' head is actually floating a ways above his body like the Cheshire cat. I don't know why, but its just one of those VFX things I heard or saw somewhere and it stuck in my head ever since.

The fights and choreography in the Fate series is amazing too. I love the Lancer vs Assassin chase scene from Fate Heaven’s Feel

[@SpineShank7]

Anime recommendation: Sword of the Stranger's final fight.

[@mohitkhati5302]

so cool

[@besnos7506]

Yes yes yes YES!

I just recommended that too! such a great scene

[@ruii933]

Since your profile pic is Ban, why not the fight between Meliodas and Escanor?

[@sheacrowley3659]

Commenting this here too because I'm just super passionate about this show right now. You've covered the original Tron and Tron: Legacy, but I bet you didn't know there was a Tron cartoon in 2012 called Tron: Uprising. The show was seriously underrated and looks GORGEOUS. I'm not sure if it was the first for this, but it was definitely one of the first examples I can think of of a 3D animated show that tried to look 2D and I think, given it was 2012, they pulled it off pretty well. Also just Robert Valley's style is so unique and cool and made all the already beautiful action sequences that much more appealing.

Really love your channel, particularly the react videos, weather animation, special effects or stunts! I would be curious to know what you thought of Roughnecks: Starship Troopers Chronicles. I was a fan of it when it came out, and I remember that it was *said to be* the first fully CG animated show, though that's probably not true--- At the time, when there wasn't much else like it, and being based on the badass Starship Troopers, I thought it was very cool. Keep up the great work!

[@azuress1899]

I'd love to see animators react to Violet Evergarden... that show is just gorgeous

[@snorgy8543]

Please get this up

[@johnchick4862]

Kyoto animations. Mainly hand drawn and not cgi

[@hokral7915]

And toy story 4 too.

[@anuragbundela1483]

[@dcresistance]

KyoAni stuff in general! The instruments in Hibike Euphonium, Hyouka, the softness in Liz and the Blue Bird, etc. Especially the raw keyframes of Violet! Insane detail

[@legolasackerman588]

Regarding anime recommendations: 1- Attack on titan (ODM gear scenes) 2-fate heaven's feel 2 ( saber alter vs berserker)

[@livingphantom]

Damn I literally just posted a comment with exactly this XD great choices I love Studio Bones.

[@HavocHank]

+1 for the Shimazaki fight. There are some really nice, creative moments in that fight

[@919ben919]

yo. Ghibli needs an episode! princess Mononoke and castle in the sky made me become an artist!

[@caitanderson6359]

Have you thought about covering anything from Cartoon Saloon? Secret of Kells, Song of the Sea and The Breadwinner all have beautiful animation, but there’s something extra with Wolfwalkers. The sketchy lines in the wolves, the town vs forest animation, etc.

[@madst4059]

the scene in Moana where Te Fiti has her heart returned. Id like to hear how a scene like that comes to life. All the streps from storyboard, to animation, to effects and materials. So much is going on in that scene, I'd like to hear about it. I remember being especially blown away by the smoke simulations and the amount of foliage.

[@flak3645]

That scene gave me goosebumps ngl. The smoke parting was beautiful Edit: the scene where Moana was facing down te'ka while saying she knew who she was

[@eyob.t1389]

Moana really had beautiful animation. Although I didn't like the movie

I would love to see these guys make animation tutorials, they really know how to keep you engaged with entertainment while also delivering information that's retainable.

[@thomp7151]

The Levi vs Kenny Ackerman/Kenny squad fight from Attack on Titan season 3 episode 2 is one of my favourite bits of animation. Gives me chills every time and I want to see how you guys break it down

You want horrible anime? Saint Seiya's newest one on Netflix. The SOUND DESIGN IS ATROCIOUS. The VAs are cheaaaap. It's all...

[@ikhwaneivan4303]

don't forget that they change the main cast gender because of "progress". like, wtf?

@@ikhwaneivan4303 Wait they made Seiya a girl? Glad I never clicked on that shit 😂

[@Tshiesty0]

need this guys thoughts on studio ghibli movies ASAP

[@carlosesquivel2938]

ohhh man.. they played them dirty on the Latin American dub All the original cast from the anime is there, except for Seiya (whose voice actor died some years ago) and they gave him the wimpiest, most scuffed voice actor they could've got. AND HE'S THE MAIN CHARACTER OF THE SERIES Other than that, I just hate they made Shaun a full-on girl

[@alisonanddanlindsey]

@@c0wboys4life no, Seiya is not a girl in the newest one. They changed Bronze Knight Amdromed(?) to a girl. (The one who has a whip and who's brother is the Phoenix knight, I forgot his name lol)

[@joshuaftk36]

Hello! Y'all should get a foley artist on the show for a "FOLEY ARTIST reacts" episode! Or a voice-over actor for "VOICE-OVER ACTOR reacts" episode!!! That would be cool!

[@adamharmelink9609]

I feel like the movie Surfs Up is absurdly underrated and has a unique style to it, plus the sound track is great. So maybe give some scenes from that a go please?

[@RkiyoshiI]

Probably already suggested but Demon Slayer: Episode 19 ending fight, would be really interesting to see their input given the blend of traditional animation and CG that ufotable implements. Either that or the fight scenes with the drum demon

[@casuallyspelic9145]

Those would be cool but I found after watching the fight several times and looking at some of the backgrounds kinda ruins the fight when you start to notice all the low resolution 3D models that are animated just alright.

[@flackbyte]

The people who made Devil May Cry 5 released all of their pre visualizations for their cutscenes, Id love to see you guys react and compare that with their final product.

[@Carnege50]

Oh my gaaaaawd lol I forgot about those they’re funny and cool at the same time

So great to see you, Alex! Would love for you to take a look at French anime like the fight scene in Dofus Book 1: Julith.

[@Ashitaka1110]

Anything by Makoto Shinkai. Especially, since he talked about his time lapse, the time lapse in the opening song part of Your Name.

[@lunarxs]

I need that reaction video in my life !!

[@farmingice8715]

You should do the movement of characters in studio Ghibli movies.

[@PrimatoFortunato]

In particular pre-ghibli Miyazaki , like Lupin, Conan and Sherlock. I think it’s the most funny Ghibli character movements. Maybe some modern animators have drawn from that and I haven’t noticed?
