John Marston Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Fun fact: My sister works for blue sky studios and she's admits that nobody on the staff actually gives a rats ass about these movies at this point, and this is simply fox milking a franchise for all its worth.Really? What does she do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancyarcher Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Really? What does she do? She's one of the animation riggers on a few of the movies (Ice Age the Meltdown, Epic etc). I've been to blu-sky studios a few times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kowhite Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) Well more power to them...movies are ok enough, if I made bank I'd churn them out too and laugh my way to the bank.Granted, I have no idea what international audiences see in this over any other animated film.Though I admire your sister...dem CG artists...more interesting work than I. Even if it's just Ice Age. Edited December 21, 2013 by kowhite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killimano3 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 They'll probably continue to make these movies as long as they continue to make absurd amounts of money overseas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 They could probably animate Sid getting bonked in the head for 90 minutes and make it a blockbuster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kowhite Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 They could probably animate Sid getting bonked in the head for 90 minutes and make it a blockbuster.Unfortunately, after this movie makes 900m worldwide, you won't get paid a cent for providing the idea. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 The Ice Age films cost less than $100m so they're profitable even if OS revenues decline. It'll be interesting how Rio 2 does, Blue Sky doesn't have any other franchises aside from Ice Age so it'll interesting if they can create another hit franchise. Epic did okay but they're not going to be a sequel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snitch Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I love this franchise. It's not trying to be too pretentious like Pixar's movies. It's a funny good time movie. DOM- 135 OS- 700 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Ah yes, "pretentious". The quick and easy phrase to bash any movie that tries to send a message. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kowhite Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Scrat made this a big hit and that's what the minions will do for Despicable Me franchiseWill do indicates the future. Minions have already succeeded like Scratch did for ice Age, maybe even more (we will see).Nonetheless, a very true point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
