This movie is beautiful and no one ever has heard of it :(
Jaxon Carter
I couldn't say for sure, but I'm guessing probably not. It's just a very good well rounded animated film, no more no less, but I wouldn't go calling it a pinnacle from a country that has so many other quality works to offer.
Andrew King
It's either that or The Hedgehog In The Fog.
Oliver Edwards
While there's a /rus/ thread up, does anyone remember that animation about the three astronauts in a really vividly colored world? It was two bearded guys and a girl and I think one of them plays chess against a big monster at one point. I cant remember the name but I know the animation was fantastic.
Luke Flores
The Hedgehog In The Fog is the best russian animation IMO.
Isaiah Gray
The Mystery of the Third Planet
Bentley Rodriguez
I was gonna say that thing with the hedgehog, beaten.
Jacob Murphy
snow queen is pretty basic for russian animation imo. Captain wrongel, treasure island, winnie the pooh, etc. Those are the ones I really enjoy.
personal favorite is The Bremen Musicians
Mason Rogers
snow queen > frozen
Luke Brooks
Frozen isn't even the same story tho
Cameron Collins
who needs snow queen when you can have fish waifu.
Dominic Smith
I NEED THE ANIMATION WITH A GOATMOM
I NEED MY FIX

I'm not as nearly as familiar with russian animation to feel qualified to deny or confirm than.
It is certainly an amazing piece of art but is not like with Hungary where all the astounding animation from there is attributed to Marcell Jankovics and just by looking as his work you can find the best animation from the country, which is in my opinion Tragedy of Man.
Adrian Roberts
No, Tale of Tales was
Too bad the creator went full Stallman afterwards
Christian Collins
No, this is.
Luis Wood
They're supposed to be "inspired by" the same Hans Christen Andersen story. But Snow Queen is the one that plays it straight.
Adrian Morris
Fuck, that was an astounding film.
Carson Davis
FUCK YEAH, CAPTAIN PRONIN
Isaiah Johnson
Hunchback Horse was pretty great, watched it in German but nothing rhymed. english version is all rhymed.
Jaxson Myers
forgot link. and sometimes it's called "The Humpbacked Horse" instead.
Ryder Sanders
There's a great animated version of a dr.seuss book where all the frames are painted on glass.
Jonathan Parker
I don't find the movie as a whole too impressive, but the animation of the Snow Queen herself is absolutely astounding. She barely does anything, but everything in her design and motions just radiates power, majesty and cold beauty.
I also like how she isn't defeated in some flashy plot contrivance, just calmly concedes that there's too much power of love for her to handle and teleports Kai and Gerda out

That's impressive, but the scale is completely wrong.
Parker Mitchell
Face too anime
Sebastian Powell
I think OP's talking about the quality of animation, not just how enjoyable a cartoon is.
Anthony Bennett
The body too. Well, making on-model r34 of her demands a level of skill that internet smut artists are extremely unlikely to possess.
Grayson Ross
this one always impressed me, sheer quality-wise
Carter Johnson
Haven't seen that one, usually the example of this style posted in Soviet animation threads is this

Jeremiah Martin
No, I think the "Mystery/Secret of the Third Planet" was. However I always felt that the real strength of Russian animation was in the voice work, characters and writing.

>Bolek and Reksio fighting American characters instead of welcoming them as saviors
Robert Miller
Frozen got rewrites
Jordan James
Maybe not the best animations wise, but i have always loved their "There Will Come Soft Rains" adaptation.

>Samurai Jack crossing swords with Gromozeka
Holy fuck how did I miss this one?
Parker Ross
Anddddddddddddddd save!
Thanks for the image user
John Garcia
damn, that was great
Jeremiah Baker
>tfw you've known about the Snow Queen for almost two years now but have still yet to watch it
While we're on the topic of Eastern European animation, does Jan Svankmajer's Faust count as animation with all the claymation and puppetry? Movie has some fucking god-tier imagery.
Connor Campbell
Nu pogodi BLYAT! SUKA! VODKA! CHMO IBANOE! YA TEBYA IBAL!

Just listen to that soundtrack!!!
Camden Wright
Why she bothered so much for such simple dipshit?
If she knew about imageboards all of us would be dead already.
James Miller
Jealous?
Caleb Wilson
She had a massive /ss/ fetish and couldn't contain herself
