This movie was better than it had any right to be
>>
>>94545814
I'm still mad that Johnny didn't sing the full version of Stay with me
>>
Yeah I thought the movie was pretty amazing a lot of sing threads lately I guess because it just came to Netflix a lot more people have been watching it
>>
>>94545814
recently saw it in a park after eating a bunch of watermelon with my dad who cried at the gorilla parts.
shit was weird
>>
>>94545814
No. The music was good, and the performances were on point.
The movie as a whole was a by-the-numbers underdog movie that was completely spoiled in the trailer.
>>
>>94546100
Holy shit man try to make the marketing a tiny bit less obvious
>>
>>94546135
Netflix subscriptions start at 9.99 before as many great movies such as the latest Marvel movies, trolls, the Minions movie and many great TV shows such as Daredevil Jessica Jones Luke Cage Orange is the New Black and don't forget to check out the upcoming Defenders order your subscription today

it was easily better than Zootopia

Oh shit, I was hoping it was coming ever since I noticed Moana there.

>>94546393
Woah anon, let's not get too crazy here.

I've seen like three sing threads in the past hour
I just watched it with my niece and nephew the day before, further lending credence to my belief that I can psychically influence 4chan discussion
>>
>>94546462
I've noticed this phenomenon on /a/ before after I watch an old anime, I find a thread on it
>>
>>94546331
Don't forget Sing on netflix make sure everyone watches SIng please watch Sing it didn't do great so we're trying to get more people to watch it on Netflix and buy SIng related merchandise please watch Sing

I keep thinking this movie is about as close to a 3D cgi muppet movie as it can get without actually being a cgi muppet movie.

It had the plot majority of the muppet movies have.

do you think he kills people then puts them in a gorilla suit and then fucks them pretending its him?
>>
Sing is a solid, likable little time-waster. The story is a bit thin, but the characters are fun and engaging. It's not Zootopia, but it's a little more substantive and less goofy-frenetic than Illumination's other films.
>>
>>94546800
Nice doubles
>>
>>94553898

>it's not Zootopia

Of course it isn't. That movie was preachy Disney garbage made by sjws.
>>
>>94550154
it outperformed moana in my country. and sing had an incredibly shitty dub with the animals singing with their english voices and it felt so fucking weird. meanwhile moana had one of the best localizations ever.

i hate this world
>>
>>94554020
i pretty much lost all respect for the movie when i learned the director said he believed in white privilege and used the movie as a way to signify that and how "oppressed" gay people like him are
>>
>>94553898
oh no you mentioned Zootopia, here come the crazies to respond to it
Seriously, though I agree. It was cute, shallow yet fun. Wouldn't buy the DVD, but was pleasantly surprised while watching it on a plane.

and that other one, who teaches her son to feel inferior about himself because he's not white.
All I wanted to enjoy a good movie with talking animals, not find out it was going to be part of some delusional "agenda" against whites.

Fuck you.Disney. Fuck you.

K. Maybe I used wrong word. this should explain what I meant.
>>
>>94545814
I really liked it. I'd watch it again.

The songs were good, and I liked the fact that all the stories of the characters all connected to eachother, but still stayed independent.

I saw an interview saying that every character was meant to grow in some way at the end of the film, and I definitely see that. (Well, in everyone but Gunter, but he was a joke character anyways)
>>
>>94556069
Also, if anyone here has done any type of performing, Sing does a great job of showing what it's like to be a performer.

I did musicals back in high school, and Sing nailed that "everyone's in it for the show" aesthetic.

Not really, it was just as lazy and forgettable as everything Illumination has done hell the characters didn't even need to be animals unlike Zootopia where it played to the theme of the story and was the basis of the most of the humor in this it was largely done for marketing and the character designs aren't even good.
>>
>>94555994
>basing your opinions on what the movie wasn't instead of what it was

They removed the shock collars and stuff for a reason you know.
>>
>>94546393
Anon, no.
The character design and the world building of Zootopia alone are easily better that all this movie.
>>
>>94557370

Shouldn't ever consider them in the first place, but nahh "muh white guilt" tells us we must keep them, until it was almost too late.
magic's gone.

The most waifu-able character.

>>94545814
Sing pulls off two commendable feats. The licensed music usage didn't feel cheap or exploitative, and the ensemble storyline was juggled efficiently. It's a testament to genuine appreciation for performance and judicious story editing.
>>
>>94560721
I might cried if the trailer didn't spoil it for me
>>
What was your favorite song from the movie, /co/? This one was mine, even if we only hear a snippet of it in the movie itself. Also, Johnny was my favorite contestant by far, especially since I'd have love to see more of his dad's Gorilla gang, even if Johnny already had the most development out of the contestants by far already.

I dunno, it was pretty dull and predictable.

The only good character is the main character.
>>
I really liked it. It might not be the best movie of 2016, but definetly worth checking out.

That said though, I think what killed it in the eyes of the public were both the trailers and the fact that it's another movie with animals in a single year.

Zootopia designs were more clever and made sense, sure, but these were still cute.

Was there really a point to them being animals? They didn't really play into the different species being people aside from a joke here and there...

It was pretty good. One thing though...

>Opera singer's main song is Golden Slumbers by the Beatles.

>Opera singer is also a major diva.

>Make opera singer alpaca and not a beetle, which would have been a great visual gag
>>
Just got done watching it and it was alot More enjoyable than I'd thought it'd be.

Making the characters animals is the only way to use stereotypes without being called on it.
>>
>>94561390
Does there need to be a point?

Though this movie could've easily been made in live action and been pretty much the same.

Nope they just wanted marketability and there's no harder market to retards then having cute animals sing pop songs!

>>94561559
As far as good animated movies about music that aren't musicals, only Bakshi's American Pop comes to mind.
>>
>>94561567
I just realised that those three rabbits are the exact same fucking model. The ears are exactly the same. The first one only has hear head tilted forward.

God damn they're cheap.
>>
>>94561390
Have you seen how Illumination renders humans?

Using animals is a way to up the cute factor and to use more streamlined designs, which is what cheaper studios have to do to compete with Disney and Dreamworks who both have sunk massive fortunes into rendering technology so they depict every hair follicle in breathtaking detail.
>>
>>94562135
>which is what cheaper studios have to do to compete with Disney and Dreamworks
According to Box Office Mojo, Illumination movies average $700.1 million, while Walt Disney Animation averages $544.3 million.

The budgets for these movies have more to do with fiscal discipline than anything else.

In Zootopia, it was the entire point. In Robin Hood, the filled the stereotypes(foxes being sneaky, hens being cranky, bears being burly etc)

Here, there is little to no reason for many of the animal choices. Hell you could have made the protagonist a koala, a wallaby, a panda, or a racoon and nothing would have changed.
>>
>>94562414
You're missing the point. Illumination has money. Their parent company is Comcast/Universal, who has money. They are not a cheaper studio. They just choose not to compete on technology.

Dreamworks did, and now their tech is going to be cannibalized by Illumination.

Ash is the only character in which her animal traits is actually relevant with her needles poking out when she performs the rest could have easily just been humans.

Honestly, I haven't seen much waifuing of her ever since the movie premiered in any of these threads. Really seemed to be a pre-release thing for whatever reason.
