As a character designer, I really like the way the fairies' wings are animated, most people just have the wings flap and otherwise stay still, the way they bend and flex in this film looks so natural. Really they shouldn't have gone with such hyper realistic designs, but I really like the visuals besides that.
@moodycowcrafts48624 жыл бұрын

It absolutely feels 100% earned when they end up together in the end. The story should have been about them not everything else. George has good ideas but can never execute them well on his own.

I loved Marianne and Bogs chemistry but the constant songs were definitely tiring and the fact that they were covers didn’t help. The only singing scene I didn’t mind was when they sang Strange Magic since I thought it was really cute. I also don’t think Dawn and Sunny should have ended up together but if they had to at least have Sunny apologize for trying to use the potion on her. I wish they focused more on marianne and bogs relationship and how they feel like they can’t be together since they’re from different kingdoms. Overall it’s not the worst movie ever it definitely had good moments and I even laughed at some parts but the tropes and covers made me like it less

From 17:26 to 17:42, you mentioned that Roland’s design look like Prince Charming and sounds like Gaston. I’m glad you mentioned both Prince Charming and Gaston. Because there’s fun fact about the two of them(Gaston and Prince Charming), the thing is, Rupert Everett(the voice actor for Charming) auditioned for role of Gaston, but the directors said he didn’t sound arrogant enough. He remembered this when he was voicing Charming in Shrek 2. I should also mentioned the inspiration of Roland comes from Prince Hans of the Southern Isles(another Disney villain), he’s the guy who apparently love Anna but left her to freeze to death. Anyways, I feel like Roland reminds me of Prince Charming from Shrek 2 than Gaston and Hans altogether. In contrast, they’re both narcissistic, conceited, selfish, and think they can get what they wanted. Roland wanted to get marry with Marianne so he can have his free armies while Charming wanted to get marry with Fiona so he can become king. They both have sinister motives. The only differences is that Prince Charming is “mommy’s boy” while Roland is not. However, they’re still similar. Speaking of which, I see Marianne reminds of me of Princess Fiona from Shrek because they’re both strong, tough, and know how to put up a fight. Meanwhile, I see the Bog King as Shrek a little. They’re both single at the beginning and are grumpy at first sight. However, the differences the Bog King have servants and a mother who cares about the Bog King while Shrek doesn’t have anybody in the beginning. Sorry, Shrek. Actually, I feel Strange Magic reminds me of Shrek franchise characters. They both have similar message too which is loving someone on the inside and don’t judge their appearance that much. Edit: Even though this is already edited, I should also mention that the Bog King’s mother is kind of like Donkey from Shrek. They’re both annoying but still give pretty good advice about love. Another fun fact: the Bog King’s mother is voiced by Maya Rudolph. She also happens to voice Rapunzel in Shrek The Third.

I may be a minority on this. I love this movie a lot! I thoureghly enjoy this interesting romantic movie so much!☺️💖 I think it is super interesting and a nice fresh breath of air from those becoming stale beauty and the beasts type of movies. I think one big reason I liked the movie was how they handled making King Bog and Marianne's blooming relationship feel so real, at least to me. They felt like real characters, with real legitimate issues that they both faced. They felt, to me at least, very relatable. Bog King felt that because of the way he looked to others that he could never be loved, he had crippling low self esteem. He so desperately wanted love from anyone that he made the horribly selfish decision to force a person to love him. Marianne thought the man she had been with for who knows how long truly loved her, she was blinded by rose tinted glasses only to be heavily let down by someone she truly loved. Which not only left her with trust issues, but also wounded her self esteem a bit as well. As goofy as this movie can be at times, Marianne and Bogs relationship feels really real. To me at least. I enjoyed it a lot.☺️💖

Personally I’d fix this movie’s weird handle of romance. Instead of Sunny being a simp and drugging Dawn to love him, Sunny and Dawn are in a sweet, cute relationship with one another. But because Dawn is a princess and Sunny is a lowly elf, they cannot go public with their affections. Instead of Roland giving Sunny the idea of the love potion, Roland uses Sunny and Dawn’s relationship as leverage to blackmail him into getting the love potion to use on whatever the main character’s name is. And another reviewer came up with this rewrite, but instead of Bog hating love because his love potion didn’t work, he hates it because he was potioned into a relationship he did not consent to. And therefore keeps the sugar plum fairy hostage as to not allow anyone else to suffer the same way.

The hero falling in love with the villain is legit my shit. That was the subplot I was waiting for my entire life! And the fact that the villain actually didn't have that much characteristics that majority would consider "handsome/beautiful" was great. Heck, he only had baby blue eyes! Otherwise he was very lanky, rough at the edges with a long crooked nose... Needless to say, I really liked Bog King's character design. It works so well for the villain, but once we get to know him better and get past that... what's not to love?! The jukebox music I find problematic especially if a movie wants to aim to the international market, because those are songs everyone already knows in the original language which is English. It's so hard trying to translate and dub that into different languages without the song starting to sound odd and forced. The only time I've heard a famous song being used in a movie which was also translated and dubbed to country X's own language, was Shrek 2 when the fairy godmother sings _I Need a Hero._ And somehow it worked. No other jukebox songs from any Shrek movies were translated and dubbed, at least if I remember right. Surely most animated movies are produced in the USA and are mainly aimed for English speaking audiences, but if there is a possibility a movie could make it internationally, especially an animated family one, using jukebox music isn't the best idea. If the songs are not translated, many people will miss the meaning which connects the used song and a scene from the movie and if you try to translate it... Let's just say I'm not too keen on the idea of hearing Lady Gaga or Michael Jackson's songs translated to anything from English. It'd just feel weird.

Marianne and Bog King’s relationship is also pretty good, I like the villain falling in love trope and I love the fact that both of them look weird to each other, (as opposed to those movies where even though the main characters are different species, they both have the same standards of beauty and thus one feels like they’re hideous.) Sunny and Dawn though...definitely made me a little uncomfortable and made Sunny hard to sympathize with-which made him ending up with Dawn feel really really undeserving.

Strange magic was about as inspired by A Midsummer's Night Dream as West Side Story was inspired by Romeo and Juliet. In Sunny's defense he got tricked by Roland . Roland needed the love potion more than Sunny did.. The issue with the imp is that in the play he was a main character, Puck and an important part of the story plus my favorite character. He caused chaos with the love potion and he never really lost the potion like the imp did in the movie. I think it was never really consider that when you change the humans in the play into fairies and bog creatures you had to change Puck who was a fairy in the play into something else or he need to be an outsider to either kingdom. So when they made Puck an imp who only chittered and made others more responsible for the love potion. They took a bit of the reasoning behind the chaos of the love potion away and you miss Puck laughing at making people fall in love with those they dislike or making the "Roland" character falling in love with a donkey .

Who cares if only 17% of critics found some freshness within the movie? Critics have different opinions about certain topics, especially fantasies. The audience score of 52% just means that 52% of the audience has rated the movie with 3.5 stars or more out of 5 stars, which isn’t very harsh at all. The Google rating, “85% liked this movie”, speaks for itself.

i think Strange Magic is absolutely worth watching. It has some weird and experimental animation sequences in it that are interesting to watch, no matter if they turned out 'bad' or good. It's unique. And the blonde sister falling in love with the Bog King was such an unexpected twist that led to really weird and funny interactions. Also, the Bog King was SO fun to watch and see him fly and move and fight, ugh. His design is REALLY COOL to me, and he reminds me a bit of Cell from DragonBallZ with his human-insect body. I definitely recommend seeing the movie, for what it tried to do and for what it succeeded in. The movie does get kinda horny at the end though, which was awkward to watch with friends lmao.

"Movie made for girls" Is a funny quote, since watching the movie feels like it had so much low effort in the writing I like tropes, but this fell into a bad pit of them where nothing was made to twist those tropes around, and all of the good and interesting designs was reserved to the dark forest, not the fairies (something that is stereotyped as "girly"). Which feels like a drawn out grind to the teeth cause it made caring for any of the plot dull. (Also it was a missed opportunity to make Sunny be the real villain of the story, that would have made his character far more interesting)

Ooh! I really like that idea! Yeah, I really wanted to like Sunny but the whole obsession with Dawn always made me really uncomfortable... Now I'm really wishing Sunny was the villain. Probably wouldn't have saved the movie but I agree, it definitely would have been a step up from what we got.
@cbennett74804 жыл бұрын
well, to be fair, (IIR) it is based upon the Shakespear play of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and those romantic tropes abound, but I do like the twist where that dark haired fairy ends up with Oberon (but maybe I'm bias because I've always had a thing for Alan Cumming *the voice of Oberon in this* from seeing him in spy kids when I was a child. Lol!)

And even if Sunny hadn't been the villain, it really could have been a great exploration about this sort of mentality where you feel you're friendzoned and you end up in an echochamber that makes you bitter and in the end doesnt make anything better and lets you be manipulated, which was *bit* what they tried, I guess. Though I actually kinda liked Sunny, the position of "feeling entitled to get someone's love but realizing what he's trying to do is bad before he does it" is done so fast that there isn't any actual development there, and its just used for comic relief chase stuff for the rest of the movie, of which he's then rewarded for, which neither teaches any life lesson for younger viewers or is interesting to watch. Strange Magic frustrates me bevause the characters HAVE issues that I can see a lot of real people dealing with, like Sunny's frustration of friendzone, being cheated on, other people seeing relationships as transactions and not genuine, being bitter about love and wanting to avoid the stereotype of being seen as a naive girl who believes in sappy love, but then most of the runtime is being used for songs and stuff.

@jlwiseman984 жыл бұрын
Probably would've worked better too since the fact he also tried to force someone to love him through magic makes him just as bad as roland and sunny were in this movie for wanting to gleefully do the same thing. Bog isn't as bad as either of those characters but considering how the movie makes the love potions as being evil, it probably would've worked a ton better if bog's actual reason for hating it was due to being disgusted about someone trying to magically force him to love rather then because he didn't succeed in trying to make someone love him.

Funnily enough, George's motivation and process for making this movie was somewhat similar to the on used by Miyazaki when he made Spirited Away. Miyazaki said he wanted a movie that would appeal to pre-adolescent girls, more specifically, the apathetic daughter of one of his friends. Miyazaki stated he read many shoujo (teenage girls) manga, and spent a lot of time with said girl to build the character of Chihiro. Of course, we all know Spirited Away turned out to be a lot better movie than this one.
@RadishTheFool3 жыл бұрын
Miyazaki's films feel like he makes them with specific ideas in mind of what he wants to show and tell to young girls. This film feels like George Lucas wanted to make a movie about bog monsters, but also threw in half a movie about generic fairies and elves because that's what girls like right?
@Пинагод3 жыл бұрын
@@RadishTheFool To be fair, it had some good parts in it, which was the romance and self-growth portion. It's the movie that introduced me to genuine romance and showed how even people perceived as ugly can be fallen in love with, so long as the personality truly strives, and admittedly I really liked the plot of the movie as a kid, and maybe still do until now. It also had a really cool protagonist, she wasn't forced to have romantic relationships but she did it out of her own accord, while getting to be an authentic independent character, and not just a female character. Before anyone also calls out that the hopeless romanticism was unrealistic, living as a girl and especially in a country that romance is prevalent, it's _very_ fucking realistic.

@@tahlialysse How I perceive it as a male: Spirited Away feels like it was made by someone who knows they don't understand everything about their demographic but makes an attempt to try. It might not always hit, but the genuine attempt to understand makes it feel more human rather than someone just thinking they have it all figured out. Latter one feels bit too robotic since it seems to assume another person can be totally figured out while former leaves some parts to be up to viewer. It is not bad to be somewhat oblivious about some demographic and combining it to genuine attempt to understand might be more endearing than trying to be someone who seems to have this demographic figured out.
