portgas Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I'd be a shame if it wins an Oscar. Zootopia and Moana are much more superior movies in pretty much every aspect, from music to visuals. Is Kubo's stop-motion impressive? Yes, it is. Is it more impressive than Disney's groundbreaking CGI? No, and it's marginally above their previous work Boxtrolls and way below these two monsters. Kubo's story sucks profoundly, too. There's almost nothing it does that other nominess don't do better. As much as I'd like a stop-motion movie to win and get some mainstream attention, I don't think it's the right year for it to do so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me Kubo is much better than Zootopia, which i really liked. Kubo is just magic on screen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The story doesn't suck at all but Zootopia is, for many reasons, generally considered the better one yeah. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) A lot more people saw it but that doesn't mean everyone would think it's better if they got equal attention This isn't a Crash v Brokeback situation. Both films have a legitimate case but I don't think Zootopia needs it as much Edited February 26, 2017 by tribefan695 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) Spotted Kubo in the wild! Billboard for DiscoverTheForest I've seen similar billboards for Kung Fu Panda 3, but that was for fatherhood.

cannastop Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I wonder if anyone thinks that Matthew McConaughey was a good addition to this movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the LEAST of the problems the usual Laika archaic borefest presents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
