Jennifer Lewis is such a treasure. I love watching the Mama Odie voice coming out of her mouth in real life. This must be so exciting for the actors to watch everything coming together

[@Kalel_The_Protogen]

she sure is

That's Jenifer with one N.

As a robotics programmer, I can barely start to fathom how these things were built. So fluid, so many moving points, it feels like it lives in our world with us. This is astounding

[@Liz.R]

"where did you get your brains????" thank goodness there are folks who aren't ashamed to tinker with wires & such. Viva Mama Odie !!

[@GamerKM.]

To me, these are the coolest people in the planet!

[@eddietowers5595]

The fluidity in animation is astounding. How have we not made such for battle bots, similar to Real Steel movie?

[@Nathaniel2U]

Because it's expensive to create, but it's even more expensive to destroy

[@WitchKing-Of-Angmar]

Because robots are meant for places that they are secured to the ground. As soon as a robot can walk around, you have problems. Same as people with submechanicaphobia which is the fear of a robot in the water that looks normal but has gears underneath that can impale you. Like walking up to a dancing character but them being made of metal so you could punched in the face by animated steel😂

[@Doctor_Portly_64]

The technical reason is Disney owns the patent for the models that they use to make these animatronics, so only Disney can make and use these animatronics for their parks. The financial reason is these animatronics are very hard to make and maintain, they would break too easily to be used for fighting and most can't actually move around because they're mounted to the floor.

[@FatFiber8096]

I wish I could afford to go to Disney world and see these amazing animatronics

They are engineers. We are different. We see which groups prioritize certain skills. Be glad the engineers are making things to entertain dancers.

honestly they did more than an amazing job, this is a literal feat in engineering. i’ve never seen a robot move so fluidly, even the avatar one has jerky arm movements.. but this one .. she looks like an actual cartoon in real life. like holy hell it’s nuts

Why did it seem like the snake actually stopped and looked to her after she called his name lol.

Amazing for her to see this especially after surviving that terrible accident last year! Blessed. have a good day❤

[@kevinmcguire5696]

Even though I had left Disney Animation when Princess & the Frog was released, I was still with Disney at the time. This movie was truly exceptional and I'm glad to see its characters and story have endured. Not to mention the self-proclaimed "mother of Black Hollywood". still contributing to its continued success.

[@RetooldByJasmyn]

She makes me smile whenever I see her face or hear her voice! AND HER FRO…..I LOVE IT ALL!!! A true legend!! #JenniferLewis ❤✨
