>movie made from 65,000 frames of oil painting on canvas, using the same technique as Van Gogh, created by a team of 125 painters telling a story of Vincent van Gogh brother after his suicide
>lose to CGI shit by Pixar with bunch of mexicans characters
That really activates my pinata

>disney wins
why are you surprised
>Production for the film began with a live-action cast filming against a green screen. After filming, editors composited Van Gogh paintings into scene backgrounds, and finally cut the movie together as usual. However, once the actual film was complete, they shot each individual frame onto a blank canvas, and artists painted over each image. The entire process, from the actual filming to completion of the paintings, took four years to finish. Even Welchman himself admitted, "We have definitely without a doubt invented the slowest form of filmmaking ever devised in 120 years."
not animated
>implying they didn't use layers for backgrounds
>dude it was difficult to make, that means it's automatically better
Brainlets on patrol.
What were you expecting?
>be Vincent
>sold only one painting ever
LOL
You mean
>Disgusting unwatchable rotoscope animation
right seems awesome for me imo, but these effects can be achieved on literally any photoshop app nowadays
good luck doing a CGI movie though, not playing devils advocate, but left seems like it took a lot more effort from first impression
The Van Gogh movie looked very cool but the story wasn't told particularly well. Coco had a pretty compelling story and great visuals.
Still mad about Boyhood too?
this.
Loving Vincent is the biggest oscar bait in 21st century. Can't prove me wrong
The Academy Awards are not about art, it's about politics.
why does it matter? his name will outlast you
Coco was awful, The Last Dinosaur tier overly sentimental garbage
IT TOOK 125 PAINTERS TO BE MADE
nobody cares about a shitty painter
LITERALLY JUST PAINTED OVER REAL FOOTAGE
LITERALLY COULD HAVE BEEN MADE MY CHILDREN
Glad it didn't win SHIT
No it wont. I'm picasso, cunt.
Not sure if shitposting or actual liberal fags but Sup Forums is pretty much done for either way
How is this any different the A Scanner Darkly? Was that nominated for best animation?
by that measure rotoscoping isn't animation either then?
all this did is remind me of how kubo and the two strings was also robbed
I found that movie to be boring. It looked really nice, but I just couldn't get into it.
Loving Vincent
>gimmick movie
>rotoscopy
>sort of OK script
>mellow biopic, because Van Gogh´s life was boring
Coco
>pixar formula
>twist at the end
>the same bag guy reveal speech at the end so he confess his crimes like MONSTER INC, Toy Story 3, etc
>if I kill someone I will do a movie about how I did it.
Both are OK movies, the best animated movie of 2017 wasnt even nominated.
>DUDE EVERY FRAME WAS HAND DRAWN LOL
Come on, it looked nice but narratively speaking it was nothing special. At least Coco was original.
>At least Coco was original.
>original
In which sense? nothing in coco was original.
stop crying you lost
I dont like Loving Vincent at all, but again, how is coco original?
>getting triggered by the oscars
Poor snowflake.
You can say the same about every live action movie, Blade Runner 2045 took more work to make then an indie romance drama.
That doesn't make it better though.
This should have won.
That's right, it's not.
But it is.
is this a qt middle eastern girl gets corrupted by the west movie like persepolis
There is a big paradigma in what is considered a good animated film.
The oscars are just a sympathy vote, considered only by the belief that animated films are aimed only towards children,
and since Pixar is so good at making emotional porn is inevitable that so much as children and adults feel really connected to the movie. I don't really blame them, I liked and cried watching coco
my only complain is how out of place Loving Vincent felt in relation to the other nominees , It felt like a real film, it's really another kind of contemplative beauty, for me it was fucking amazing, but it really didn't belong in the concept of best animated film
youtube.com
looks comfy as fuck user, downloading the torrent right now
> It felt like a real film
This, it deserves better than the Oscars pity category in general.
> Comfy
It is.... for a while, at least...
That wasnt animated for the most part tho.
Van Gogh was an evil white male, It's disgusting that a film about him would even be nominated in the current year.
Fuck off disneyshills
But Coco portrayed mexicans as liars, thieves, murderers, bad parents, and irrationally angry freaks.
>liars, thieves, murderers
not really, that's just one guy
>bad parents, and irrationally angry freaks.
actual mexicans claim that it's a pretty accurate description. It's part of their culture I guess
this, praising something just because it took a lot of effort is a modern disease
if i crumbled a small piece of paper, dipped it in ink, threw it on a clean piece of paper, repeated this process 10,000 times a day for 5 years every day and made a cartoon out of it - does it deserve more praise than anything else?
> Not really, just that one guy
Not really, Hector lies a fair bit during the movie, trying to get through the day of the dead customs, lying to Miguel, and a fair few others. Miguel also lied to Hector about him not having any other family, as well as lying to Imelda by immediately breaking his promise to her.
Both of them are also guilty of theft, Miguel steals Ernesto's guitar, twice, while Hector has apparently stolen a fair amount of shit from the old skeleton guy who dies, as well as the lady who works at the warehouse.
Well.. shit, you're right.
By that logic, boyhood should have won just because the 12 years film making
Literally every year some Oscar voter comes out saying they didn't even watch the animation nominees and just vote for the most famous (which is obviously the Disney one).
It's not a contest of artistic or technical innovation, it's a contest of popularity. This award and the Original Song award are a fucking joke. The Oscars can't judge best original song because they know fuck all about music and they can't vote for best animation because, not only do they know fuck all about animation, they also for the most don't consider it art on the same level as traditional movie making. They consider it a pity award, a containment if you must. Don't have to snub a potentially Best Picture nominee for being animated if we just give them this award in a category made for them where we pit it against some Disney schlock and fucking Boss Baby.
should have been called the breadloser because it didn't win shit lmao
>why a technical category should reward the movie that did the most with said technique? let's give the award to sappy cgi movie #5147
Intricacy doesn't equal quality. Boyhood was garbage and it took 12 years to make.
Best animated film isn't a technical category. It's just a movie that's animated.
>hand drawing things makes them better
Is that why your girlfriend is drawn on the back of your hand with a biro?
animated movie is pointless category, pixar wins every time
The category isn't technical, unlike cinematography.
It's judging the best film which is animated, not which movie is the most technically-impressive. An animated movie made with stick figures that has a great story will get an award over a movie that took 12 years to make with an OK story.
We'll it worked didn't it
you Faggot
that would be "The Artist"
...
is loving Vincent a good movie or not?
that's all I care about
Beautiful film and i found the story really interesting personally.
based
thanks OP
I love when movies try hard like actually painting shit and stuff
It's clearly not a technical category because mo-cap movies like TinTin and A Scanner Darkly are not eligible despite how well they're animated.
This.
The last Oscars was a big middle finger to Trump.
I'm not a Trump supporter but I turned off the TV knowing it'll be like that and just waited for the results the next day.
GKIDS has these movies up for this year. Do you think they'll get at least nominated?
Older members of the academy are senile, and younger ones are all AIDS-ridden SJWs.
It looks beautiful, but what a fucking boring concept for a movie. "based on a true story" is already pretty shit. Who cares about Van Goh's life story though
>getting snubbed over Boss Baby and John Cena bull movie
Why does the Academy hate Japan? Did they lose their fathers in Pearl Harbor or something?
The Oscar membership is full of Disney employees that vote for their own movies. That's why they keep winning.
Sufjan got robbed. He should have won. like Elliott Smith
That would be The Shape of Water my guy
I agree. But nobody watched it or even knew about it. That makes me sad
DUDE COMPLICATED = GOOD LMAO
God, you Sup Forumsfaggots will whine about everything.
I don't think so. It was pretty bad.
>didlo scroll holder
loving vincent was an okay idea poorly executed. Most of the shots were dead apart from very small parts of the frame and it had the effect of making van gogh's style look dead and lifeless.
movies are not better because they're about a subject with certain plot points you fucking turbo moron. if you think coco is worse, fine. but it's not worse because DIS MOVIE ABOUT DUDE WHO BRO DIED >;(((((
>one took more time to make so it must be better
die
I watched both and while Loving Vincent is a beautiful film it's still very straightforward. Coco is incredibly well made and very inspirational, it fully deserves the win.
To his brother no less
I was not that impressed with Loving Vincent. They basically wasted their gimmick - the images were created in an interesting way, but the images themselves were nothing special. If it were live-action, it'd look like a really boring episode of television.
They never take advantage of their format to do anything really unique, visually or narratively. So the rotoscoping technique is impressive for about 5 minutes, and then you're left with a fairly dull, unremarkable biopic
