They gave the fox Pixar mom hips, there's no way they didn't know what they were doing. On a more serious note, I really like that they made her be a fun character on her own instead of just being a love interest for Mr. Wolf.

[@cintronproductions9430]

I agree, I enjoyed her as a character, there was quite a lot of flirting between her and Wolf but that wasn't the entirety of her character.

[@TheNinjaDC]

@@cintronproductions9430 Yeah that is one overlooked great aspect of the film in terms of character dialogue. Wolf and Fox are constantly flirting in a rather organic way. It really feels like two people flirting, where they have chemistry, but also like f#%ing with each other. But, as you said, that's not her whole character. She rather developed having essentially been the Bad Guys, but having already gone through her maturing moment a few years before.

[@deltoid77-nick]

Look look look, this is for kids right? This could be some kids first movie at least let children establish the conventional plot patterns in normal movies because then the status quo will change making it harder for what is an expected outcome in reality versus fiction which adds a whole new difficulty layer. What is the plot twist if the plot twist was expected because everyone's doing the same thing or crazy thing then what plot twist would you add to that twist to make it unique for adult films? The problem is met at ahead when executives( who ultimately Greenlight these film projects) who have to (I assume) look at conventional plot patterns, the status quo, what is interesting, and what do kids deserve to build a foundation of a plotline that is easy to follow and not trying to be so unpredictable or crazy that it doesn't make sense. I'm not sure if I got my point across.

[@deltoid77-nick]

TL;DR: If kids can't understand it what's the point of a movie for kids if there is a hidden motivation to also appeal to adults who already expect certain plotlines to happen?

[@shadowwolf1818]

I think what makes Diane such a great character is that even though she's clearly the love interest, they didn't tear away from the plot to cram it in. It's just, natural. She comes off as a genuine being who wants to see wolf succeed because *spoilers* she already has. She also is super dynamic in her role as mastermind turned governor and her skills showing off both actually strengthen the main plot instead of distracting from it. On top of that her character (and spider) are just top notch aesthetics that, even if you deny yourself turning a furry, she definitely will have brought some to the fluffy side... she can dance AND fight like... what else could she be?

[@neutronalchemist3241]

Diane is a great character, and she would be even without the exagerated ninja skills. She's smart, she's in a position of power thanks to her own skill, she's in control, she doesn't need the bad guys, and she doesn't need to help them, but she does, and she pulls all the right strings.She's supportive, and defiant when she has to be. All of that while being clearly interested in Mr. Wolf, and without sense of superiority. Without the "smug" that ruins so many female characters. Sincerely having fun.

[@nerdoftheatre]

When I was in creative writing class, my prof mentioned that the readers being able to predict a story isn't bad. It's a mark of good writing. You're planting the seeds and, hopefully, will get a good payoff. I dislike when people trash a movie because they guessed what happened. Hell, there's a KZbinr I watch that is in the middle of a series. And for years he's seen us guess what this character's backstory was. He was so excited when it was revealed because he knew so many of us had guessed correctly and wanted to see our reactions. Predictability isn't bad for a story.

[@kamikeserpentail3778]

Depends on the story really, what is trying to be conveyed. But I do think it can be boring if you can predict too much of the story. Then it becomes like, why bother going through it if you already know all the significant story beats, you won't be getting anything new from it. Like example, when you watch something and know the hero will make it through and stop the bad guy, that's ok. It's fun to find out HOW they will do it, who they will meet, and how the character will change through the story. But if all of those are known too, and nothing changes, then you start to question the point of going through with it.

[@nerdoftheatre]

@@kamikeserpentail3778 Yeah it also does depend on the story. I have read such stories that do fall into that story type. But it does depend. But I think a lot of people have fallen into the idea that predictability = a poorly written story. Which isn't necessarily the case. It's something that heavily depends on the individual story.

[@notyourjakey]

A good detective/mystery story will plant clues that allow an attentive audience to find the solution (either in whole or significant part(s)) before or at the same time as the characters. And less attentive audiences should be able to realize what the clues were either in hindsight or on a second viewing. Iirc Hbomberguy talks about this in his Sherlock video. An example from Murdoch Mysteries (spoilers) There's a father and twin sons with heterochromia. One of the sons was given away as a child bc they were poor. If you paid attention to the old family photo with the kid they kept, the eye colours are flipped from the guy claiming to be that kid. So at some point after that photo was taken, the kids switched places and the question of "where is the kid that was given away?" becomes "what happened to the kid that was kept?" (Which has another, harder to figure out, clue to it)

[@dragames]

being predictable and being badly written to a trope are two different things. Like, let's take her being a master thief. That was predictable. However, it had a good payout for showing to the story about someone defying their 'nature' to do better which made it necessary for the story. Had she just came in and done some weird ninjutsu shit and then said "My daddy made me train, but hey, I believe you can be a better person" that wasn't predictable, but it isn't helping the story.

[@andreamaria5952]

[@kurlykayla9013]

The thing about DreamWorks, speaking as someone who used to work there, is that the company absolutely thrives best when it functions as a counter-culture voice to the status quo currently in place for Kids & Family animation. It's the whole reason the studio came to be: To counter the animated storytelling approaches established by Disney. So we got things like Antz (not great, but it was a direct fuck you to A Bugs Life), Road to El Dorado, Prince of Egypt, and of course, Shrek. Their worst work is when they try to fall in line with the status quo or cave into increasing pressures from S&P (standards and practices) and consumer trend decision-making (AKA, "this thing is currently popular, so we should do this thing"). A lot of the recent bad stuff can be attributed to the NBC/Universal merge who have a tighter grip on the type of content produced. That said, Steven Spielberg once visited the campus and said it would behoove the company to consider making adult-themed projects, and while I have no idea if that's going to happen, the general consensus among employees was that, yes, that would probably be a fantastic next step. But they're beholden to their NBC Universal Studios overlords, so, it's up in the air. Point is, when DreamWorks just does its own thing and chooses to be the "bad boys/girls/folks" of the industry - not even in genre, but by just pushing the types of bold narratives studios like Disney aren't brave enough to do in fear of losing their bottom line $$$ - we see among their best work.The Bad Guys is a direct and clear cut example of this both in packaging and messaging. I hope this is a lesson for DW to stick to this approach, because it's what put them on the map to begin with, and it's what makes them shine brightest.

[@BingBangPoe]

I love how _Into the Spiderverse_ kinda created this whole new playground for 3D animation to take inspiration on traditional 2D animation and _The Bad Guys_ is packed with. I loved how expressive the characters are and how well animated the action scenes are; the characters stretch in such a fluid manner that is mesmerizing to watch. The voice acting is also top notch. The plot is not groundbreaking or anything, and I feel they could've explored the heist themes better to really nail that "Ocean's Eleven" energy, but overall I had fun. My only question is that: why isn't _everyone_ in the film anthro animals? It is a bit weird to have a handful of characters being animals and the rest being humans, and it's not even explained why is that. It doesn't bother me per se since the human characters are pretty well designed. But would make more sense if every character was an animal, imho. I also agree that there was a lacking character development on Piranha, Shark and Spider. They really feel like wasted characters as the focal point is on Wolf and Snake. But who knows, if Dreamworks sees this as opportunity to capitalize and we get a sequel, maybe they could explore those characters better. Their dynamic is good enough and I wouldn't mind seeing more of Diane (not a furry I swear).

[@walking_on_earth]

I thought it was hilarious that the main characters were the only ones who were anthros. similarly, how all the characters are named Shark, Tarantula, etc. and then there's Diane Foxington 😂for a movie like this, the setting doesn't need to make sense logically, it only needs to support the feeling of the story.

[@loizzzzzz9882]

You know I was thinking the same thing, and then I realized that maybe the creators kept it that way to represent that anthro characters where just reflections of the nature of certain people irl..? the typical charming sweet ML with the personality of a wolf, the goody goody guinea pig (idk why he reminded me of James Cordon), and the typical sexy FL with the personality of a vixen. Their characters had personalities that's why they were kept that way. If you saw the movie you would have noticed that some of the animals are just normal even in the same species.

Well the point is that the anthro animals are considered "monsters" or bad guys. Even the other animals, the fox and the guinea pig become more relevant in the plot.

@@nickrogers3624 This is a fantastic comment. Also, I think another thing that’s worth mentioning, is that, the only person who can decide if they’re a furry, is the person themselves. I see a lot of folks, especially younger viewers who become fans of anthro animal characters but then, legitimately feel afraid of being called a furry, not wanting to be called something they’re scared of being called, or because of the bullying that could lead to, and while I do think it’s possible to identify with a community while still being afraid to publicly be a “part” of it, and that experience is of course valid, I think that in situations like this it’s just also important to note, that really is up to the person themselves to chose if they want to be a part of the community and no one deserves to feel afraid of being labeled it.

The animation for _The Bad Guys_ is impressive and vastly different than the CG animation seen in the previous DreamWorks animated films (e.g. Shrek, How to Train Your Dragon, Megamind, Kung Fu Panda, Madagascar) considering that the titular characters, the supporting cast including the humans gives off a Hand Drawn Cel-Shaded look similar to the animation seen in Disney's _Paperman_ and _Feast_ and especially Sony Pictures Animation's _Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse._ I also am getting a lot of _Lupin the 3rd_ and _Dragon Ball_ vibes for the character designs.

Wolf and Snake's relationship and struggles throughout the movie was definitely the highlight of the story for me. I like the other characters a lot, they each have their own charm and role to play in the various scenarios of the film, but with the exception of Diane who is a great foil for Wolf, they mostly feel simplistic or just not that important to the story. however I don't think that's a bad thing! ensemble casts can really bog down the pace of a story if not handled really well and I think the more streamlined approach taken here is to the film's benefit. the animation is probably the biggest strength of the movie overall. I love the emphasis on key frames which give the action a comic book-like feel. finally I would say the mashup of a gritty and glitzy setting with cutesy, cartoony characters just works so well. it definitely reminded me of Zootopia, but throwing all the debatable thematic content of that film out the window in favor of maximizing style.The Bad Guys isn't deep or challenging, it's just a well-executed, thrilling ride.

Why would you need anything more? You can get on with the rest of the impressive scenes and jokes when you do not have to elaborate on why your antagonist is bad.

Humor was also Seinfeldian more often than low brow potty humor, which was a pleasant surprise. Character writing was also great and gave most characters their own unique charm, as you said. All the characters are unique and enjoyable, so I'd have liked a small peek into all of their backstories and how they came together. I think that could have been a nice place to plant seeds for their eventual redemption, like young Nick Wilde wanting to join the scouts and having that viciously thrown back in his face causing him to enter a spiral of bitterness into adulthood, until that was finally broken by someone dedicated to fighting societal norms. But that's a very minor complaint compared to everything this movie brings to the table. I hope more people give it a chance now!

I'm so glad you mentioned the books! So many wouldn't know the film is based on a children's comic book! Also stylish artwork in animations is ALWAYS a plus. It never ages badly, it gets better over time. It should always be something that's always considerd and not taken for granted.

I never heard of the books myself, but the movie was a bunch of fun and had a lot of humor in it. I really loved the crime thing where it tells you their name and just small info about them, that you have to go back and pause to read what it even said lol. I really enjoy Sam Rockwell as Wolf, his voice fits so good. I saw the ending come and the twist, but even so it was fine. The fact all wolf had to do was hide his tail in order to be in disguise like that is what would give him away, which is just silly.

Well, no, actually I think his little mustache also fell off... Wolf's I mean.

[@Thiccems_Mcgee]

He didn't know it would happen in both instances, so he didn't prepare

[@madmouse1016]

I kinda assumed this would be a good movie from the first peeks of it, and now I can't wait even more to watch it for myself x3 both this and Turning Red are some of the most hyped up animations for me and I haven't been this interested in watching something animated that isn't an anime, in a long while.

Saberspark: "Diana is bae" Furries: Ladies and Gentlemen, we got him!

[@Marksman3434]

I think Diane has the potential to awaken the inner furry that everyone has but denies that they do

[@TacticalTerry]

Definitely the new Lola Bunny haha

[@benchattin]

Her design was intentional lol.

[@andrewgreeb916]

Keep telling yourself that

[@kamikeserpentail3778]

Everyone is a furry eventually.

This generation's designated furry awakener

[@LoveSickWorld]

I’m really hoping we are really in this animation renaissance, while I really miss 2D animation this sort of stuff is some of the best you can do with CG

7:20 THANK YOU for saying that!! More people need to understand this.
