Case in point: The Dark Knight The movie: Heroes have to struggle between doing the right thing even though the world is burning around them. They have to struggle between their baser instincts and serving justice, even if the ones they love are put into harm's way. And ultimately show that humans will pick what's right vs the villain trying to prove that everyone is as psychotic and depraved as he is. What Hollywood saw: dark and gritty make money. Make heroes dark and not good.

Using their greater understanding of what these characters actually are to fight the villain instead of his more closed perception of just grabbing the strongest things he could get and throwing them at his opponents.

@douchopotamus37553 жыл бұрын
@@Laneous14 I disagree, OP is saying that when artists sacrifice their artistic vision for creating something that will be more profitable then the art suffers. While it's true that artists want to survive off their art, most would not sacrifice their vision for what is popular. If you look at artists who have been the most influential on popular culture they were mostly uncompromising in their art. People can tell when something is made by committee and they can tell when someone is trying to appeal to mass consensus. There is a reason Shrek is loved and the live action Disney movies are not. And in response to Mozart, he was literally playing piano before the age of 6, did he start playing 'for the money?' or did he figure out he could make money with his art later in life? Da Vinci created lots of things he wasn't paid for, all of his work is not contained in his commissioned paintings. Why would he do any of that if profit was his motivator?

I genuinely looked forward to a point when videogames would look like that. Yes, I am still bitter.

on the other hand, it's blatantly easy to see how the iron giant is as much acting as a shield in ready player one as it is a weapon, similar to say, captain america, or superman, both of whom prefer not to fight but wont shy away from a necessary fight to protect the people that is, it's blatantly obvious as long as you don't go into the movie with a prejudiced expectation of it being mindless popculture references and mindless fighting, this game has a direct effect on people's lives within the context of the story, both in that it gives people who might not be in the best situation the chance to openly express themselves and in that many people run their businesses through the game directly and indirectly, people's lives depend on the game and its continued operation as a neutral ground directly and indirectly, a corporation gaining control of the game would ruin people's lives at best, and kill them at worst, yes outside of the context of the story that battle is just a spectacle, and could have played out just as well with any other number of giant robots [hell, i'd have loved to see liberty prime in that role instead of or even alongside the iron giant, let the giant serve a defensive position while liberty prime takes an offensive position?], but while we're arguing for the respect of the iron giant's story, let's also respect the story in ready player one, that fight was a fight to protect everything they have, the giant's use in this fight was as a sheild

@@qwertysub2038 I know people are going to hate me for it, but I do agree that adaptations should have changes that make sense, rather than changes that don’t; I didn’t like the original Disney Jungle Book movie because of it; mostly with how Mowgli and Shere Khan are portrayed. Walt, when he was alive, had no sense of respect for making Mowgli into a boy willing to chose who he is in the end, but instead made him into a pinball rolling around different locations and bumping into different people. Shere Khan isn’t any better, because he doesn’t kill anyone at all, made worse in the sequel where he brutally attacked Lucky the Vulture, and yet he laughs it off like it was nothing when finding Shere Khan inside a statue head’s mouth. Mowgli’s Story and the 2015 reboot fixed what Walt broke, by actually taking cues from the source material (Rudyard Kipling’s books), and made Mowgli into a boy who learns of the jungle life and doing his own thing, while Shere Khan actually kills someone to show he means business. These are something that I think people seem to forget, that these stories were based on pre-existing stories. Now, on the flip side, Walt did make an adaptation while respecting the original author; and that’s with 101 Dalmatians. Most of the cues from the original book was kept, including a car chase back home to escape Cruella. It’s the opposite of what Walt had to deal with for Mary Poppins. Now I know some modern adaptations don’t sit well with a lot of people, but I will bring up an example that I’m sure I could shed some light on, with an adaptation that has both a change that made sense and a change that doesn’t: the Lorax. One change that made sense (aside from the Lorax being voiced by Danny Devito to emphasize the book’s “sharpish and bossy” description of his voice) was the Onceler being a human. The problem with many people not understanding the original book was that the Onceler was made to represent humans who were filled with dreams, but also lack a sense of responsibility; in other words, he wasn’t destroying the environment just because, but rather he doesn’t realize how much we need the flora to give us homes and clean air. So, the Onceler being a human, for better or for worse, did make sense in the context of the source material, especially when the book said he wears gloves. The one change I hate about the movie was turning the town that was desolate in the book into a town that’s plastic and fake, which is run by a 1-dimensional villain. If the town remained desolate, like the book showed without any verbal description, then Ted’s reason to get a tree for Audrey would’ve been much stronger. Bottom line, Hollywood should stop putting in changes that don’t make sense in the context of the original source material.

I honestly wouldn't mind a sequel to Iron Giant, they did leave a hook for it, but with movies as they are now; I seriously doubt we'd get a quality product even with Brad Bird at the helm. Frankly the movie going/watching public just need to show with their dollars that remakes as they are currently being pumped out is not something we want. I remember there was a much larger backlash for these kinds of films in the 2000's, but now it just seems people have accepted this trend as a part of hollywood.

For instance, The lion king (2019), a movie that is nothing but a soulless, uncreative retelling of the original, goes on to gross over $1.6 billion at the box office and has an audience score of 88% on Rotten tomatoes.

The Iron Giant has been my absolute favorite thing pretty much all my life, I'd watch it over and over whenever I could growing up and you couldn't get me to look away. I can recite the whole thing word for word by heart. It's even where I got my new name, Hogarth :) It shaped my outlook on life, how its ones self who gets to choose who they are and that we aren't simply who others say we're supposed to be. I took so much comfort in the line "souls to die" that it eased the pain of my grandpas passing, and it continues to help me cope with death still to this day. As a kid I wanted so badly for it to get more recognition, for it to touch people like it did me. Seeing the Giant used as what feels like a cheap nostalgia grab by the same people that made it *flunk* at his debut and seeing them warp the meaning of his whole character hurts me on a personal level. kinda makes me wanna fistfight hollywood ngl

I think its use in Ready Player One actually fits the setting perfectly and is exactly what you'll see if there is no copyright and all IPs are universally available for randos on the Internet to do whatever they want with them. The Iron Giant as a construct WAS built with the weaponry (otherwise it wouldn't have a conflict of trying to be something more than what it was built as), so the weaponry's there. And this isn't the character, just the model, the empty shell without the animated character's personality within it - it's an Internet user making use of it. Though I kinda felt that if they didn't have the lasers/gun used in the battle, just having Iron Giant jumping on Mechagodzilla and fighting to stop/slow Mechagodzilla, sacrificing itself to help everyone? That actually would have worked for the spirit of the character despite still not being the character. Ironically, he's not even supposed to be in the film. He's referenced in the book, but not selected. But Leopardon would fall under Disney's rights and if there's one company Warner Bros. wasn't going to pay for cameos it's Disney.

I know you get into this at the 7:00 mark, but I still disagree on its usage in Ready Player One being an inherently bad thing. In this particular context, the Iron Giant is not a character in his own right, nor was this creation ever in the story. The actions this Iron Giant replica makes (which is established as a remote-controlled replica) do not reflect the character of the Iron Giant from his movie. He’s pretty well disassociated from that in the narrative. I recognize you more mean its use is indicative of poor studio intent (I don’t disagree there), but I could probably create a similar argument as far as the narrative is concerned for, say, King Kong in this movie as opposed to some of his recent interpretations.

BUT with the iron giant, the animators were assigned to animate diffirent scenes? Its very weird and i havent heard of any other films to really do this,,, either way i think it's cool but the method does leave room for animation errors since its hard to keep each character consistant, but i think it adds to the charm of this movie.
