Wait what the fuck. You mean that the actual animated guy in the movie doesn't actually physically exist?
You've just fucked up my whole world OP.

>bruce willis is doing a voice

Welp. I guess everything is going to sound dull and wooden as fuck now. I hate celebrity voice actors. Very few of them can into voice acting.

how old are you?

It's probably not because of the actors, it's because of the sound direction. Anime movies tend to use normal actors too, and I never see anyone complain about their voices like they do about American movies.

That's mostly because of the same reason why non-Swedes think the Swedish Dragon Tattoo movies are better, when in fact the acting is so much shittier in them that they're laughable next to the American one. Because the non-Swedes don't notice the shit acting. Even then you get people complaining about the really shit anime acting.

As for Nips not complaining, that's just because they just don't complain about things.

Many people know Japanese to varying degrees, and even if you don't know any Japanese it doesn't mean you can't recognize problems in voice acting.

>As for Nips not complaining, that's just because they just don't complain about things.
I wasn't talking about Japanese viewers, but of course they complain about things like anyone else.

look at this big boy, he only watches REAL movies, with REAL blood. i wish i was just like him.

>Many people know Japanese to varying degrees

This does not really help unless you're familiar with how people actually act when talking the language. You can recognise French words, but that does not mean that you'll notice when the French guy is talking in a stilted and artificial manner that doesn't fit with how French people actually speak, you'll just be focusing on the words. Sometimes you can tell, like in the cases where people do end up complaining about anime voice-acting.

The bottomline is that yes, people can tell good and bad acting apart in the Japanese language. It's not some impenetrable mystery that only those who were born in Japan or have lived there for years can crack. I don't understand why there's so much resistance to this fact. How does it threaten you that people can evaluate Japanese acting?

About 99% of the complaints about anime voice acting are either "I don't understand Japanese, therefore the acting must be bad" or "everyone is a high-pitched little girl, or at least that's what I've heard."

That's because Japanese voice actors act, in a room, with other people they're doing the dialog with, while they all watch the thing they're acting in on a screen. That's why they don't generally suffer the same issues American voice acting does or come off as being so stilted.

>when in fact the acting is so much shittier in them that they're laughable next to the American one. Because the non-Swedes don't notice the shit acting

That is complete bullshit. I speak Nip, and their VA is absolutely better than you get in the west in general. This isn't always the case, but they are more likely to produce more higher quality dialog that you'd get from scattershot booth acting. It would honestly astound me if their practices didn't produce this. Though it goes without saying that American anime dubs are far weaker for just about every reason.

What did they mean by this?

Where's my Patricia Clarkson animated kino? I want more animated kino with soothing voices for fucks sake.

The standard in America from what I've heard is that the voice actors perform first, and the animation is made to match it. In a big budget movie they should all be doing their lines together, by all reason.

>In a big budget movie they should all be doing their lines together, by all reason.

But I don't generally hear of that happening. It seems to be a cultural thing that recording lines in individual booths is somehow the "way it's done" over there, and so the result is the actors trying to be 'expressive' in ways that are generally egotistical, then the final audio is selected and cut together from all the takes. Some good acting can result from this, but it generally takes a lot of work and is rarer.

this is why wreck it Ralph just didn't work for me
Pixar does it well but most other animation studios ruin their movies with their voice cast

>In a big budget movie they should all be doing their lines together, by all reason.

I think Rango is the only one that did it like this.

>Instead of recording voice-overs in booths, with every actor isolated from everyone else, most of the voice-over work was recorded on a set, with the actors voicing their characters while performing with their fellow cast members. This enabled the performers to follow the rhythms of their co-stars while also giving them room for improvisation.

hate this exact feel

I skimmed through some videos on YT and it seems likey always recorded separately, except in Frozen.

I don't know what benefit they think they get from not having the actors together.

>I don't know what benefit they think they get from not having the actors together.

It's for convenience.

They can be in different parts of the world / country which prevents scheduling conflicts and let's them get it done faster.

Well sure, but these are big budget movies and the voice recordings can't possibly take longer than film shoots, where the actors are together.

Normies wouldn't care about that when it comes to animated movies.

To be honest it's not like you could tell which animated movies actually had the actors together recording their lines vs. the lines done separately.

>Originally planned for a straight-to-DVD release, but unfortunately was given a wide theatrical run, being shown in 2411 theaters across the U.S, where it set a record for worst opening for an animated feature, earning $1.4 million on its opening day, and $6.6 million on its opening weekend, taking seventh place at the box office. It subsequently took in $23 million worldwide, on a budget of $18 million, becoming a box office bomb. It also received unanimously scathing reviews, leading to studio people manufacturing the only positive reviews.
