I'm not hating on it. I'm just not emotionally taken by it the way you are. It's looking like a pleasant but disposable diversion, which is pretty much what the franchise has always been. In hindsight it's actually perfect material for Blue Sky. Now, Home, yeah, I was totally hating on that.

goldenstate5 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I don't think it's passive aggressive at all. The point is that the film doesn't look like a masterpiece, but they did their damndest to make it look good. Sounds about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Maybe I just grew up with Peanuts differently than you guys did 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I suppose I have been slightly annoyed by the notion some have posited that this is a "real" kids movie as opposed to the "mopey" or "pretentious" Pixar films. Not so much here recently but it feels like a lot of the internet hype for this is based in that feeling. Still, I think I've generally been more optimistic about its box office chances than most 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't think Blue Sky is the company to fully handle the idiosyncracies that the property had under Schulz. Instead, it'll be a cute, harmless product. Nothing wrong with that, but I doubt it'll top Pixar's efforts this year. Being the third-best animated feature of the year is nothing to be ashamed about.

Blankments Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I just think the visual style looks absolutely lovely and reading the reviews, it sounds like it's as great as a big budget CGI Peanuts movie was ever gonna be. Doubt it'll top either Pixars this year, but I'm a sucker for any good animated film 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

langer Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Anyone else feels like this will only be a success in the US? Just like Tintin is strong in EU and weak in the US, Peanuts seems strong in the US and weak outside. Might just be me also... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
