Mars Needs Moms - AniMat's Reviews

Mars Needs Subtitles!

[@WillieManga]

A similar case to The Star Wars Holiday Special. Keep in mind, there are no subtitles for the Wookies in Star Wars. At least the non-KotOR Wookies, anyway. It's forgivable when people like Han Solo is around to translate the important stuff. But for a majority of the movie, it's just the Wookie family grunting at each other. We can't discern anything from them except their tone, which usually amounts to this: Grandpa: "Grandpa's watching his tittie flicks!" Mama: "Get over here!" Lumpy: "Ain't happenin'" Grandpa: "Is that so? Maybe one night, Grandpa will forget to turn the gas off." Yeah, I know that was a reused joke from Jontron, but hey, it was funny. That's just one problem with SWHS, as well as the ridiculous plot including a 7 minute long step by step instructional video. Like I said, it's more forgivable when the important conversations are translated by someone. For example, in Fifth Element, one of the main characters speaks in an ancient alien language, and only she and few others can understand. She slowly learns to speak English, but when she has something important to say in her language, they at least have someone around who can understand her.

Dude, I just now realized that! Thank you!

[@ElectricDragon505]

@LionKingRulezAgain1 About 7 minutes into the film, he said "I wish I never had a mom!" in front of her face. Something nobody should ever say, especially the way how Milo does it.

Kieran Stark I wondered if he would re-review this movie.

[@spaceboyctstudios2934]

Yeah… This movie didn’t do very well, so it does NOT Seaver a 5/10, sadly.

[@ltmmoviereviewsharrison3462]

I would say if he ever did do a re review of this movie,it probably would have gotten a 3/10 or 4/10.

[@benjaminfenty8745]

Bruh, I'm really surprised this film didn't get the Animat Seal of Garbage. I don't plan on watching this movie because of Milo's character and that infamous line he made in the movie.

[@avidenaro6612]

It's a shame the studios closed down

[@gmanley1]

Maybe the movie isn't bad enough to get the Seal of Garbage.

[@WillieManga]

This is Milo's line; "Well my life would be so much better if I didn't have a mom at all." Gilbert Gottfried: "WHAT AN ASSHOLE!" Even his mother was hurt by that comeback. I know he later regrets it, but the movie gets really confused with his motivations it hardly even matters.

[@TrueBlueProd]

I know, since that line, I've hated that little bitch ever since I first saw this movie as a child 😡

[@DrawtoonzStudio]

This is one movie I'm never seeing. Ever.

Polar Express, Beowulf, and Christmas Carol by Disney are so much better than Mars Needs Moms.

[@jodyposey9558]

And don't forget Monster House!

[@chrisbrasel7509]

this bombed so hard that image movers closed and Disney's biggest sticker as hated Milo saying all that terrible words to his own mom!

[@WillieManga]

He is smug as fuck and this is what he said that made him unbearable; "Well my life would be so much better if I didn't have a mom at all." At least they acknowledge how bad this line was. The mom reacts appropriately to it, and Ki later calls him out on it, which by the way is the most comprehensible thing she says in the whole movie.

[@spaceboyctstudios2934]

Actually, ImageMovers is still in business. It’s just ImageMovers Digital that shut down.

[@supertokutendo01]

Can you review the 2006 movie Monster House please?

"Run away, fall, find my mom"? Hey, it's the plot to Good Dinosaur! And yeah, this ain't no "A Wish for Wings That Work". Perhaps they should've made it a 2D special like that adaptation. I'm surprised Burke Breathed okayed this.

[@donvitocorleone2098]

The Company who made this movie also made great movies like The Polar Express, A Christmas Carol and Beowulf.

I love that movie and that movie was funny and it was awsome when i first saw this in theatres

When I first watched this movie when I was 4 I I actually thought this was live action. But when I rewatch the movie when I was 7 I realised this was a weird animated movie.

I love the Polar Express and The Christmas Carol is my favorite christmas movie of all time!!

[@user-iq8on2uu8z]

Hello, I’m from the future :)

[@bryanegelhoffsanimationtec257]

This film had potential. It could've been a light hearted film about a child trying to rescue his mother. Befriending a lost man-child, an alien rebel, and a goofy robot helping him along the way. Along with some better motion capture, and a much nicer main character. I read the book as lot as a kid, so I wanted this film to be good.

[@1994moviebuff]

Great review. I thought the deal breaking line for milo was gonna be "mars needs bowtoux" lol

[@angelah7075]

Mars Needs Moms; more like The Movie That is Too Dumb to Show My Wall.

[@BrontoSmilodon1]

@ElectricDragon505 I've heard that line a few times in other movies and tv episodes so was it the way he said that line.

[@chrsmueller923]

The only ImageMovers films I liked were Polar Express and Monster House. The rest sucked, especially this film.

[@Blankusername_01]

This movie had a Colossal budget of $150,000,000, yet only made $40,000,000, making it one of the biggest box office bombs of all time.

Run away, fall, find my mom.

[@kimhoffman6749]

At the end of the movie I didn't care about the humans, I just wanted to see the Aliens because A: the babies were cute and B: they looked cool. Wingnut was my favorite but I see him as a loveable idiot. A healthy dose of those is okay for me, I guess. "Flower power" thing was a bit much, and the Supervisor was not that scary of an antagonist.

[@CarloNassar]

I know this is something that came out after this movie but I've seen better results from a guy that used Blender from scratch. Even then, the people at ImageMovers did a better job with Beowulf. Aside from that, it looks like The Adventures of Tintin (which was done with Weta Digital) is the only movie I found with motion capture that would be worth my time and that's saying a lot (Sun. 12-15-2019).

Didn’t Mars needs Financial Help worked for Aria the Animation with Nozomi Entertainment getting their financial help from Kickstarter with getting the dub. And it worked since it has Ash Ketchum’s voice actress Veronica Taylor as one of the cast members.

Ever since the 1997 movie Rocketman (released on Amanda McQuaid’s birthday) every Disney movie set on Mars was a box office disaster (John Carter, Mission To Mars)

[@yogalover2753]

To be honest this movie kinda feels like a copy of the Jimmy Neutron movie which used to be my favorite movie as a child.

[@rogue7723]

_Jimmy Neutron_ still is a favorite of mine also.

[@silosioproductions]

I saw someone who looked like Milo.

[@DanzigFan-vq3zf]

Can't believe this review will turn TEN YEARS OLD Tomorrow

[@TheWickedMerman]

The animation can be kind of nice to look at sometimes but it pretty dull looking and the humans look terrible. I think the humans looked their best with this style of animation in The Polar Express. While the humans still looked a little too realistic in that, the rest of the animation looked fantastic. Mars Needs Moms? NO! The only thing in this movie that is KIND OF entertaining is the hippie alien girl. She is a rebel and I do enjoy her curiosity. It does make sense the way she talks is dated, since she learned human speech from something that was dated. She's nothing great, but at least was kind of likable, unlike the rest of the film. The only Disney movie worse than this is Descendants!

[@darkzombiproductions7756]

I'm going to have to agree with you on this one

[@lisettegarcia7013]

_Mars needs Moms_ was the movie that cancelled the reboot for Yellow Submarine. All of us who loved the movies before this one, and fans of Yellow Submarine, shall leave a bouquet of flowers to the tombstone for the cancelled movie idea.

[@joeysopinion4463]

I liked this movie when I was younger but now that I’m older I can see it’s flaws, butI feel that this could have been a good movie if it was executed better, because I feel like the concept of using motion capture to make an animated feature could have been a good idea, but knowing that and knowing how bad the movie is, I feel motion capture is better used for video games then full length feature films

[@micablackwell9095]

[@TheTonedragon]

From what I gather they're trying to preach to an audience that doesn't exist. Kids that absolutely Hate their mothers? I think they misunderstood "Teenagers going into Hormone rage" with "Kids that HATE their mothers". And how it's about "Discovering" the importance of mothers, as if nobody knew.
