Saw this last night, its well worth a watch. It wears its influences on its sleeve, but it transforms them in amazing ways and has one of the most interesting lessons/morals I’ve seen in a family movie.
Shitty movie detail: there’s bags under the characters’ eyes to reflect the all human hours it took to hand create this movie
Hoping to go see this Tuesday. I’ve had it on my calendar for ages
I don’t often read about movie reviews, so to this day I keep mistaking that a high number on Rotten Tomatoes means it’s a bad movie.
I mean… If all of their tomatoes are rotten.
Wife and I just saw it. Holy fucking shit I cannot "believe* how good that was. I am astounded with what they managed to do with stop motion. And if you haven’t been to Portland everything in this movie is true.
what I like about the movie’s Portland, it’s that the quirky nature of the city could be some of the weird magic from the woods bleeding into Prue’s world. And because the closest our world has to magic, is art, creativity and alternative lifestyles, it manifests as a goofy town where all the world’s weirdo gather.
