What dose /CO/Think of Ralph Bakshi

His only worthwhile work was on 1987 Mighty Mouse.

He is perhaps emblematic of the "Disney Dry-spell" (most of the 70s and 80s) of the kind of guy who could get animation made that wasn't afraid to stick to any "for-kids" conventions.

I'd have to say probably Fire and Ice is his most entertaining flick almost for Darkwolf alone.

I like his work and judging by interviews and commentaries he seems like a pretty cool dude.

It's a jewish guy obsessed by putting niggers on his movies and pretending it's cool because it's so seventies and "underground".

I wished there were more scenes with the Don's crossdressing sons.

I wish there was a official soundtrack out there.

Probably my favorite work of his, though "best" is up for debate.

Its weird to me that a piece almost 40 years old that followed out of the boom civil rights era of that was the 60s had a better grasp on race relations in America than almost any other piece thats tried to tackle in since then.

Plus this scene was pretty nice.

it makes sense. you can't handle a serious issue that people have trouble talking about while being censored in any way. bakshi is the only guy who gave no fucks

there was a little bit of that all throughout the 70s really. TV was starting to say all kinds of shit you just couldnt say before, and in doing so, it was literally saying more. really sucks that didnt continue and now they censor all the niggers and fags and other words like that out of the likes of sanford and son, all in the family, all that good shit.

American Pop is my favorite movie. Certain parts of it make me cry every time I watch it.

Right? Like, theres something very grounded with how this movie approached the issues at hand, not just the race issues but any other sort of social comments you can pull from this movie (theres tons). It's something thats rare to see in even peripheral media today, where that fine line of obtuse flooding vs acute ignorance actually gets rode appropriately and not just polarized to one side or the other like everything else these days

Shit was just Brer Rabbit with a different name.

Bakshi was an amateur film maker who happened to be an animator. If you can get past the imagery, it was mostly social commentary in a gritty fashion.

Wizards was great and obviously the most approachable film he ever did along with Lord of the Rings. The other stuff i would say is for people who REALLY REALLY like Bakshi or are seriously interested in pop culture for the 60s and 70s

I thought Coonskin was good, it somehow took me back to childhood in a weird way I can't explain considering I was born in 1989, but something about it made me feel like a kid again

Bakshi makes ugly movies about ugly people, and they're beautiful.

No seriously, they are. I especially love how you can always see the New York he grew up with and knew best-- a grimey, scuzzy, murky haven. It's honest.

Hey Good Looking is fairly approachable from a visual standpoint, language is a bit coarse but no more than watch "A Bronx Tale" or "Ganges of New York."

The character designer later worked on the Chipmunk Adventure, I think.
