Do you think Russian animation will ever truly take off? ht

>>94317300
If it did not when we have access to all the great ones from the Soviet era, I doubt it will now with the awful shit made now.

>>94318133

things paid for by the state are going to competently made due to bottomless resources but also completely inoffensive and atopical.

greed might backfire and end up appealing(or downright creating) the lowest common denominator but wanting to sell you shit is how daring, new things are made.

>>94318259
This. They are actually making better and better movies all around. More of a global appeal. Nightwatch I feel was the start. Animation will continue to get better.

>>94317300
In a word: da.
Masha & the Bear looks better produced than the capeshit you see here, tovarishch.

>>94317300
I saw that short 2 years ago.

It was just a fucking short, nothing to make a thread about.

Remember where you are, anon. Take it from Ms Three seconds of screen time.

>>94320126
The fact she has no personality makes her so interesting (people can, and will, make up their own).

>>94317300
Not until country in the hands of criminals.

Why is their animation always so "fluid"?

>>94320861
The example you are thinking about is rotoscoping.

That, or different schools, different old cartoons to imitate.

Not with Tatarsky dead, no.
>m-muh Melnitsa
They ran out of steam after the third Bogatyrs movie and there are very few actually creative animators and they are mostly independent ones.

What? The OP? There are thirteen episodes.

>>94322261
Surprisingly, the English dub isn't terrible.

Ministry of Culture needs a fucking rehaul. I'm sure there are lots of talented animators who could use some aid, yet shit like Kids vs Wizards gets the sponsorship.

>>94322526
It's just a funds embezzling scheme. They know that nobody cares about Russian products aside from Masha and maybe Luntik, so they "finance" cheap shit to steal the money.

kids dont need daring things, they need good art to impulse their creativity and stories that teach them morals.

Plus....those legs.

any slavbros that can translate?

>evil deer

cute.

>CGI

meh.

>>94324666
There are three episodes out in English.

>>94322449
It's cute. Production quality is higher than I expected.

>>94317300
This is gonna sound weird, but as a rusfag, I feel weird watching most russian cartoons. Dunno why. Maybe because most of them are explicitly aimed at kids

>>94327272
Or maybe because nobody is even trying creating new designs, and instead aping the most generic westerns character designs.

*trying to create

>>94327272
Same here.
I haven't seen much russian adult-themed animation, like Pereval lately. Anime doesnt count.

>>94329497
I think Russia could pull off animating a short scifi or fantasy novel like Serbs with Technotize. I bet rusbros know some good reads.

>>94329497
>just watched Pereval a couple of days ago
Funny when such coincidences happen.

Still, there have been some good Russian cartoons. First three Bogaturs, Smeshariki (but only 2D episodes), Gem Mountain series, Kin-Dza-Dza movie (it got some mixed reviews, but I personally loved it) and this upcoming Courier movie looks pretty unique.
