Blarghagh Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 When a movie that relies on humor has no funny jokes in the trailer, I have little hope.
Jorian Drake Posted January 5, 2007 Author Posted January 5, 2007 When a movie that relies on humor has no funny jokes in the trailer, I have little hope. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> shrek 1-2 never show the best gags in its trailers
Surreptishus Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 (edited) Key to a Dreamworks CGI film: hire top grade actors for the voices, use ridiculous anthropomorphism, chuck in a series overtly self referential jokes in place of a story, insert montage. Repeat as necessary Unfortunately, Pixar's Cars used this formula... thats why it sucked. The NASCAR theme also made it suck. Edited January 5, 2007 by Surreptishus
Pidesco Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 Shrek 2 showed the best gags in the trailer. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
astr0creep Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 Next thing you know someone will be hyping this as "The Final Capter in the Shrek Trilogy". Ah crap it's me... <_< http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
Surreptishus Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 Shrek 2 showed the best gags in the trailer. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> True dat.
metadigital Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 I laughed at Pinocchio's clever disingenuity. :D OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Pidesco Posted January 5, 2007 Posted January 5, 2007 This is much better. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.

It beat the hell out of The Incredibles. Pitstop!

Cars wasn't bad, just comparing it to all Pixar's other films made it look bad. But when the worst film a company makes is good, just not awesome, that speaks lots for the company. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

I might have to watch it again though. Toy Story 2 is Pixar's best film

Surreptishus Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Its just a bunch of scenes where cars do human stuff.
metadigital Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 ... And there are no humans. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Surreptishus Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 Look man, I'm all for anthropomorphism in cartoons. The old WB toons are among my all time favourites. I just draw the line at cars going on a romantic drive together and... falling in love!

Why are these car-creatures shaped in such a way to take human-shaped passengers when none exist. That's just silly. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT

It felt less like a Disney story to me. The "I'm your father!" line alone was pure gold.
