    It's current release date alone shows that Paramount and Nickelodeon have zero faith in this and rightfully so.  Who in the tinted blue hell thought this was a good idea?

    The only saving grace of the film is how cheesy it is. Might be something entertaining in that sort of way like Sharknado.

    Insomniac Game- they have a great, laid back culture and are very appreciative of their fans. The have a forum on their website which I'm a prominent user of and it's a great place. Plus they created my favorite game series.

  3. I was 9 and a half five years ago... be more self aware and realize more of your own issues. Don't completely fall apart when people start to turn on you and don't become incredibly withdrawn.

    Try to work on your art more constructively rather than having a high opinion of it. That's bad. Don't get upset over people moving away because you have no control over that.

  4. A new DreamWorks Animation film was announced a few days ago. It will reportedly be the first distributed by Universal (the new owner of DWA which I made a topic on a few months ago) and is slated for 2018.

    Plot:

    "The story follows a desert-dwelling marsupial known as a bilby who has lived under a rock his entire life before he is kicked out by his parents and told to get a life. He does so by going on a road trip with a band in the Australian Outback."

    Doesn't sound very promising, but maybe when we see more of it I'll change my mind.

  5. My mother keeps reassuring me I'm not autistic- yet I obviously am. Plus I believe my father has stated once or twice to me privately I am.

    I'd like for her to be honest with me because this would explain pretty much everything about me.

    If you were to talk with me for like half an hour it's immediately obvious with my mannerisms and the way I communicate.

    Most companies say they won't show stuff but in the end they do mention them on their press conferences even if its not the full information.

    They wouldn't have said three months in advance during an investor briefing they wouldn't.

    It would be awesome though if this was all an elaborate ruse and they're unveiling the NX there.

    I'm hoping Nintendo gives us a sneak peek of the NX as well as info on the new Zelda. As for Sony, i'm looking forward to the FFVII remake and probably some RPGs. Microsoft could show something nice also. Let's see what happens when the show gets started.

    Nintendo will only be showing Zelda U and some other upcoming Wii U games (already announced though). No NX.

  8. Runs from the 14th to 16th.

    PREDICTIONS:

    Sony: 

    -PS4 Neo announced. Will be $400 and launch this October.

    -More The Last Guardian and Final Fantasy 7 remake. 

    -Horizon Zero Dawn delay.

    -Whatever Sucker Punch is working on will get announced, same with Bend.

    -New Ratchet & Clank possibly.

    Xbox:

    Don't care. Probably a similarly upgraded Xbox.

    Nintendo:

    I will be watching Sony's for whatever Sucker Punch and Bend's games are, a new R&C potentially and TLG. I will also see Nintendo's out of pure curiosity (they're fucked)

    This movie looks really terrible. How did this get delayed by 2 YEARS. They could've spent this time developing Tintin 2. But nope they waste time releasing this.

    Separate teams.

    If this is one of your best animated films, why are you implying that you no longer liked it?

    Sorry, but I also have a few arguments with some of your thoughts:

    -How did Viacom have creative control of the movie? I might've missed something, but still.....
    -The movie never intended to be marketable. Heck, the Cars movies didn't exist just to make money. It made money because it happened to be marketable. This is just me saying this, but the SpongeBob characters never experienced having the CGI look outside of video games, and the staff made the experience worthwhile. Also, if the staff could nail the stop motion models for "It's a SpongeBob Christmas," then they could nail making the SpongeBob characters CGI. More-so, it felt like making the SpongeBob characters CGI for a few scenes seemed like the best thing to make the movie successful, considering that Hollywood currently has zero demand for hand-drawn movies. At the very least, the CGI wasn't as realistic and ugly-looking as...say, live-action Yogi Bear, Scooby-Doo, and Garfield. That was my greatest fear of what the CGI could've looked like, and I was instantly happy that it didn't when I saw the look of the CGI SpongeBob characters. In other words, I'm probably just one of few people who think the CGI in the movie was a good thing.
    -SpongeBob was out of character? He was still his happy little self, spite not being incredibly naive.
    -Comparing Patrick's character to someone trying to kill you is rather extreme. I mean, he's part of the angry mob, and they wanted to use SpongeBob as a sacrifice, but I think the whole idea is that nobody, even the townspeople have any idea what happened to the secret formula, as it disappeared, so they have to resort to extremes. Also, Patrick's character does get better by the time the main characters enter the real world.
    -Continuing on, it's logical for the townspeople to resort to extremes, because without the formula, no one can make Krabby Patties, and they think Plankton is hiding it. It's also logical for the townspeople to turn against SpongeBob for siding with Plankton. I think the main idea is that the townspeople wanting to use SpongeBob as a sacrifice, because they think they betrayed him, is too silly to take so seriously.

    I still like it, but it's a flawed film. It's similar to my thoughts on the Ratchet & Clank movie. I got enjoyment out of it, but it was still very flawed as a movie.

    -Vincent and other crew, like Paul I believe have implied that Viacom got more involved starting with post movie and demanded tighter deadlines and cut the animation budget, and allegedly some people were reworking drawings and boards so they'd be easier to animate and save on retakes. That's what I've been told though, so don't quote me on that. It makes sense considering it's one of Viacom's most profitable IPs.

    -The CGI was obviously there to sell tickets and toys. Alvin and the Chimpmunks and the superhero craze are the obvious reasons. I agree the CG was well-done and actually looked pretty great and faithful to the hand drawn animation, but it didn't need to be there.

    -I haven't seen the movie in a few months but I remember he did some very stupid things, even for SpongeBob. The opening scene with the ketchup farting was OOC. Granted, they improved on him being annoying, so that's a step up in my book.

    -Eh, him ditching SpongeBob at the beginning is still kinda weird. I remember there was some concept art with him in the place of Plankton at first. Personally they should've used Squidward. He has a very interesting dynamic with SB.

    -You have a point here, but the pacing of that moment is broken when they suddenly go on land and become CGI.

    do you have a favorite fruit?

    Grapes or Watermelon. Bananas are okay as well, but I don't like the texture of them.
