Animation is such a limitless medium. So many things that could

You kind of said it in your opening sentence, the fact that you can't do it in live action the only limitation is your own creativity

The Itano Circus.
Even with all the advances in cg, I've never seen it done properly in anything other than 2d animation.

>>89852481
Oh shit I wrote the question twice without noticing.

>>89852635
Yeah but do you have any particular segments or animation tropes that you are uniquely fond of?

>>89852791
It's hard to narrow down, there's a lot I love about the art form.
I guess something that's a lot rarer to see now a days is just fluid movement like old Disney

I am on my phone right now, I'll post aome stuff later.

Does anyone have some webms from that film about Van Gogh done entirely in oil paint?
That's a prime example of 2d animation never dying.

My favorite bit of animation is when the hot dog fucked the bun and then pissed on it

epitome of art forms.

has it even come out yet?

>>89852481
I fail to get the feeling of adventure with live action. With some exceptions, but animation can express and chase thematics more accurately, or perhaps more importantly, with 'less background noise'.

They are not completely independent of our world and its effects, but they can always be fresh if they so desire.

>>89854938
Don't think so.

I hope the plot is up to snuff. Especially since we don't know what it is.
I hate when the writing falls too far behind the animation.

Little Nemo. Got'dang beautiful

And then here's an adaptation from the 80s that's pretty good

>>89855367
Damn that's good. I've been meaning to watch Little Nemo (1987) for a long time, but it always slips my mind.

As a kid I owned the BOX of the vhs, but the tape itself had been inexplicably missing for years.

>>89855367
You see it's stuff like this that made me believe in magic as a child.
Good animation is truly a wondrous thing.

>>89856061
I had it, too, as a kid. There's the original from 1911, the two short pilots from the 80s, then the movie, and they all look fantastic.

What are the chances of this ever getting remade again? Since it'd likely be CG, is it possible to capture the charm and wonder without traditional animation?

>>89856061
the actual movie looks somewhat different, that was more of a pitch reel from my recollection(Little Nemo In Slumberland had a very long and tortured development history)

>>89855367

Too bad the film that came out of it was a mess of ideas, and barely coherent.

After having spent some time actually sitting down and reading through dozens of Little Nemo strips, I think a plot where Nemo and Flip try and reach Princess Camille could work.

Impi would have to be radically changed for modern audiences, though.

Hayao Miyazaki worked on it for a while, and he called it "the worst experience of my life"

I'm sure the animation is great, but I can't see anything but the chick constantly grabbing her crotch and tit

Man, I equally would love to do that, but then I would equally hate doing that.

I love animation.

>>89857704
I don't mean at all to take anything away from that movie but that is a saddening amount of green screen.

>>89857901
It's not like they could do without it.

>>89857901
They've got to do SOME composite work. The backgrounds are still stop-motion, but animating an entire battle WHILE keeping track of every wave and swell of the ocean in the background would add decades to the production time.

>>89852481

There's just something so innately charming about seeing a work of art come alive. Like a magic trick that never gets old, even when you learn how it's done.

As for specific tropes, I really love blustery wind effects, like seeing loose hair or clothing get suddenly blasted by wind. Avatar was the best at this, probably for good reason. Also billowy smoke and particle effects - hell, part of the reason it looks so impressive in traditional animation is because it's so comparatively easy to do with CG.

>>89852635
>the fact that you can't do it in live action the only limitation is your own creativity
So basically current hollywood after they stopped using practical effects in favor of animated CGI.

Oh bother

>>89856817
I'm not an animation expert, but for some reason, it always feels like from the Fleischer stuff I've scene, they use colours different than early Disney.

at once both beautiful and spooky

I really love seeing a mix of 2D and other mediums, like 3D or live action.
>>89857297 Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Metropolis, and Amazing World of Gumball are all great examples because they meld together so well together. Even Futurama's use of 3D is stylized very well.

I'ts also great to see experimentation like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYJAYUf1BN4

>>89854938

I remember that it still had a while before it would be done. They are painting the entire thing. Worse is that they have to film it, then go back and paint each frame.

>>89857901

to make it worse they use a lot of CGI too.

Does anyone have some recent animation reels worth watching?

>>89860950
What do you mean?

>>89852481
Really love this. Is this from Box Trolls? It certainly looks like Laika, but not really like Coraline or Paranorman.

>>89856196
Good lord. I've seen this in gif form many times, but the gif always stopped when it got to the baby part. Everything afterwards is exponentially more impressive than what was already very impressive.

>>89856917
Fuck me that's some cool shit. Everything about this aesthetic, down to the camera, is awesome, and the way the animation manages that is incredible.

>>89860018
I really appreciate all that Gumball does to use as many possible animation techniques that they can cram into a show. Basically every family in Elmore has a different art style or animation technique used for them, plus the photo-realistic backgrounds. It's a truly unique aesthetic.

Yep. Box Trolls. It's the after credit scene.

inb4 that fag that "worked on SU too"

>>89859857
I think it's, at least in part, that the color palette itself is larger because of all the realistic lighting he does, requiring so many more shades of each color.
