This looks exactly like the movie I wanted 10 years ago

Is Captain Underpants the most tragic concept? He was invented right before a grown man in his underpants running around with two minors became questionable.

This.... actually looks pretty good. Could this be the kino we've been waiting for?

>>92409484

Poopypants has all his gadgets, so most likely edited

The fucker even supposedly builds the toiletnator

It's going to be great but I'm crossing fingers they keep Poopypant's backstory and not just HURR IM EVIL

>>92409541
I'm hoping that the toiletnator is the result of something else. Isn't Melvin supposed to be in this too?

jesus fuck I'm pretty sure they showed %90 of the movie, I hope they still have more things

There's no way they could just ignore it

I expect Poopypants to already come with his revenge plan in mind and to explain his motives later on

A professor who comes from a fictional place where everyone has a silly name, who ends up becoming an elementary school teacher because he gets laughed out of every science institution in the country.

>>92409606
It technically is all three of those. Pretty cool, right?

>>92409902

Movies like this piss me off.

Not because they look bad, but because they clearly illustrate just how fucking EASY it is to take a source material and make a good fucking movie out of it. Movies based on cartoons/comics/games/books etc. don't NEED to constantly jar with the original text and disappoint fans because a bunch of executives in suits decided to change shit.

This just looks like a flawless adaptation of the original comics. The comics that are so familiar with the youth of today. In comedic spirit, in visuals, and in general feel, this just works. It's not fucking rocket science, Hollywood.

I really love this scene. The kids are laughing at and protecting him for most of the movie, until he finally gets his superpowers and proves he's a true hero.

God these books had so many good villains
I hope they don't lump too many of them into this movie. Bionic Booger Boy deserves more than that.

The same can be said for a lot of video game movies, unfortunately.

If this movie does successful enough and gets approved by Dave Pilkey to set a sequel, what do you want to see?

Honestly, Wedgie Woman, she was GOAT

>>92410942
Blunderpants and the Purple Potty People.

I loved these books as a kid but I did outgrow the toilet humor, so I don't think I'd be able to sit through a whole film of it (not to be a wet blanket, I'm glad a lot of adults are looking forward to it), but I'm really excited that a 3DCG movie this stylized could end up being very successful. I want to see more 3D animated films this insanely cartoony & distinct-looking. Really happy for Dave Pilkey too, he deserves all the success he gets.

>>92410942
I totally thought Wedgie Woman and the good Captain were gonna hook up at one point, but that was probably just a younger me trying to push another catwoman fantasy.

>>92410160
Lots of original comics are pretty shit and I wouldn't want a flawless adapation of them anyway.

I mean, did people really want Civil war? God no.

>>92409271
This. I would have cared when I was in 5th grade, but now I'm 24.

>>92411327
>>92409271
You do realize there are kids nowadays who read Captain Underpants right? This isn't some wasted opportunity where they missed the mark by a decade. This isn't Saved by the Bell the movie, this is something that's still being made to this day.

>>92411472
I was saying how weird it is that it's exactly how I was picturing it, down to the weird al.

>>92411472
I don't think that's what they meant. Obviously kids still read Captain Underpants, I think they're just saying they wish they would have gotten this movie when they were a kid because they would have gone crazy over it.

The problem people have with them is that they don't sound like kids. Which to be fair, is done in lots of cartoons/movies with child protagonists but I think with George and Harold specifically, them being young kids are what shapes their characters.

Could Captain Underpants be able to beat Superman?

>>92415739
I don't know but he probably could put up a good fight

>>92410942

>>92411716
They grew on me, Thomas Middleditch played a kid before in Penn Zero and Kevin Hart is known to have a high-sounding voice.

I wouldn't mind kid voices, but I couldn't imagine George and Harold being voice by children keeping up with the very fast-paced deliver of the movie.

>>92413883
If Mel Brooks told us anything, is that the Jewish religion is hilarious.

>>92417616
He's saying that it pisses him off because it proves that movie adaptations don't have to be the unmitigated garbage that virtually all of them are.

>>92412044
seeing how the author of the cu books made other superheroes, there could be one.

>>92417616
That's the point, anon. Why does Hollywood get fucking Captain Underpants right, but not comic titans like Batman or Superman?

>>92417816
Well this movie seems to combine the first four books.
>Book 1: Hypno-Ring, Discovering how to turn Krupp/Captain Underpants back and forward.
>Book 2: Melvin playing a role, Talking Toilets and the Toiletnator
>Book 3: Captain Underpants getting his Superpowers
>Book 4: Professor Poopypants as the main villain.

>>92409144
I probably won't see the movie but I like that they seemed to put in thought on the style of animation and what would fit

>>92410160
Sometimes it can be good

Civil War or HTTYD

>>92418090

>>92418242
Oh shit I forgot about that.

The next movie is probably going to focus on Wedgie Woman, Melvin the Booger Boy (and the Booger-Borgs) and Captain Blunderpants being the final boss.

>>92418296
You could have Melvin be the greater scope threat (have the others be side effects of his various experiments) and maybe push Blunderpants to the last movie being the final 4 books and having him be part of Poopypant's time travel shenanigans

Here's a ending on what they could do.
>George and Harold with Captain Underpants are having their final battle with Evil George and Harold with Captain Blunderpants. Evil G&H brainwashed and grown Sulu, leaving their children Tony, Orlando and Dawn to convince their dad to return to their sense, what's worse that Evil G&H has removed Captain Underpants' powers. They decide to end it all by breaking both Hypno Rings and manage to trick Blunderpants into losing his powers, which due to plot-convenience ends the brainwashing on both Underpants and Blunderpants.
>Deciding they needed a nice principle for once, George and Harold swap Krupps, keeping the nice Mr. Krupp from the evil G&H universe while their mean Mr. Krupp goes to the Purple Potty Evil Universe, where he fits in due to his school being highly-regarded and peaceful with not a bit of bad behaviour, plus he can torture Evil George and Harold all he likes with permanent detention and other nasty punishments.
>Good Mr. Krupp stays in the real George and Harold's universe free from Blunderpants' brainwashing making improvements to the school. Everyone is shocked but pleased at Mr. Krupp's sudden change of heart even the teachers who have been given bigger paychecks.
>Everyone gets a happy ending (except for Melvin who is still a turd), George meets a young white girl who he starts crushing on while Harold meets a young shy Asian manga-fanboy who he starts crushing on but denies that he is gay. The move ends with George and Harold growing up as comic-book writers going to a movie premier (with Thomas Middleditch and Kevin Hart cameoing as themselves) of Dog-Man.

He comes from a foreign place where everyone has a silly name, and none of the universities would take him and his genius seriously cause they would spend all their time laughing at his silly name, so he forced everyone to change their names with his famous name chart.

In the end, when George asks him why he didn't just change his name, he later sends a letter to George and Harold from prison stating that he got his name changed to his grandfather's, which was, of course, Tippy Tinkletrousers.

My copy of "The Art of Dreamworks "Captain Underpants" today and Ive been reading through it.


Truly its going to be a wonderful movie.

Also the forward by Pilkey was a big tearjerker.

I wonder if they're going to do anything with "Flip-O-Rama". I know it probably wouldn't translate well to a movie but it'd be interesting to see them try.

>>92411543
Yeah but honestly, I'm glad they waited so that the CG could be improved. I mean, look at how great that shit looks.

>>92409144
I always imagined his Tra-La-Laaaa to be more shrieky, like that sound bit from the Hunchback episode of Courage the Cowardly Dog

>>92433988
I'm pretty sure they already said they would include it somehow, along with some other style changes.

I don't think I've ever seen a 3d movie nail the original 2d artwork quite like this has. It's like the book came to life.

granted I'm 25 so the appeal isn't quite what it would've been 15 years ago, but I'll probably end up seeing it sometime when it comes out and my cousins watch it or something.

>>92418398

Pilkey's art has a lot of charm and Charisma associated to it.

Helps explain why it's been a grade school mainstay for nearly 15 years.

>>92433711

Summary of the Pilkey foreword?

>>92411543
Oh yeah, I agree too. Little kid me would've gone apeshit for the movie. Still looking forward to it though, it's one of the rare few movies I'd go out of my way to see

>>92437276
You gonna go see it alone, with friends or are ya bringing a younger relative

>>92418398
Yeah, first thing I thought was how good the animation looked. It's got style.

>>92425300

My best friend is moving out of country otherwise I'd drag her with me because I know Captain Underpants is up her alley

They did so all the time in the books, I would be disappointed if they didn't

>>92426887
The last shot better be George and Harold screaming "oh no" and "here we go again!"

Does Kevin Hart accept his character is a fag? I don't think he'd like that

>>92438091

Man, I hope my seven year old cousin is into this, because I really need an excuse to see it.

We're gonna have another storytime of all the books right before the movie, right?

>>92421223
Basically Pilkey has a Hideaki Anno-styled breakdown and really crazy shit happens, even for Captain Underpants standards.

>>92424523
Wedgie Woman can be like a intro villain that Captain Underpants fight, Booger Boy and his Cyborg Offsprings can be the main villains of the sequel, and then the end of the trilogy should end with Captain Blunderpants and Evil George and Harold as the final boss.

>>92442204
Not quite. The hiatus was because his dad died. Took him out of the book writing mood to say the least.

3d animation's advancing.
fast.
yeah, we'll still get the usual pixar and disney same-y shit, but movies looking like this are gonna keep on comin' each looking better and more stylized than the last

>>92442426
The first Toy Story's looked fucking terrifying, and Tin Toy gave me nightmares as a kid. The same thing could be said by Shrek which used realistic human models which haven't aged well.

>>92418398

This isn't the early 2000s anymore. There's no reason why a big budget 3d film shouldn't be more expressive than a 2d television cartoon.

>>92442510
Even small-budget movies like the recent Asterix CGI adaptation of Mansion of the Gods looks amazing.

>>92442510
No, my point was it bothers me that 2d cartoons aren't putting in nearly that kind of effort. Not in the amount of animation since you can't expect as much out of a tv production vs a movie production, but in basic things like key expressions and poses that gives life to the way characters act on screen and carry themselves. The Captain Underpants trailer looks like someone literally injected their life force into it and it makes a lot of 2d western animation today look like puppeted zombies

>>92442731

the only time television animation ever looked good was when they put money into it like the spielberg cartoons.

>>92434332
Buying right now. I want to see more of those rigs, the animation is very sophisticated.

>>92442783
A show that doesn't have a lot of money for fluid animation can make up for it with creative storyboarding and directing choices. PPG and BatB (to an extent) utilized that.

The many dialogue heavy cartoons of course usually don't really need more than the minimum of having the characters present on the screen, but sometimes I'd just like to see more variety

I can't believe they actually managed to keep the style of the books so intact in the move to 3D. Why the fuck isn't every adaptation like this?

Hollywood is only just now figuring out how to conserve 2D aesthetics in 3D

>>92412178
>full color
What is this heresy?

>>92411543
I think it's because of nostalgia pandering. 80s-90s nostalgia has been in vogue for a while now, but even early-mid 2000s nostalgia is now infecting pop culture.

Malcolm in the Middle, That's So Raven, Invader Zim, Zoey 101, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Captain Underpants, Arrested Development, Ben 10, Hellboy, Samurai Jack, The Ring, and Prison Break have been getting/will get revivals and/or sequels, in line with Hollywood's tendency to rehash old properties. Some of them might be good, but others could be shit like Ghostbusters 2016.

>>92411543
(cont) Also the series ended in 2015 and that's just two years ago

>>92409144
I always wondered why they never made a Captain Underpants tv show, when I read the books as a kid the stuff seemed perfect Nickelodeon or CN material.

The CG in this movie nailed the cartoon illustrations by Pilkey and Krupp's voice actor is perfect. I can't say the same for the two boys though.

>>92449985
And 3d animation is still a young medium, it's basically an infant compared to other visual media. It also depends a lot on the available tech and software for what it can and can't do.

>>92425206
