also the changed mood of the music depresses me, the original is so good cos the music is fun and happy not traditional hollywood epic
It's almost exactly the same (pretty sure it's only the last bit that really gets more epic) and it's a first teaser. I wouldn't even assume this is what the actual music will sound like in the move.

Reading this I mixed up Nick Park and Nick Frost at first, but serendipitously now I have the PERFECT pitch for the pair of actors for Wallace and Gromit...

I don’t understand the point of this considering everything looks the same except with real people. Yes, I know people say live-action remakes are unnecessary. But I thought, at the very least, there would be a more realistic look to everything.
They suck from an artistic standpoint but are a slam dunk from a marketing one. You're reusing everything and get to cash in on that sweet sweet name recognition. Is it a good film? God no. But if...

Yeah... I can't remember the last time I was excited by CGI in movies, to be honest. Practical effects are so precious. Every time I can do something on set, that is what I do. Lighting beats...

This has... nothing. They're basically just doing a shot for shot remake without ANY personality. even the dragon looks the same, only with a high res bumpmap. I don't even mind leaning on the same IP. But come on, this is like asking an AI for the live action version of a movie that already exists. What's the point?

I looked for an hour, but if I find the much better 30 minute respectective on the history of animation and why it was never properly respected, I'll post it here
If we want more from this series, why not another animated sequel? Why put all this effort into redoing a movie that we can already watch, and is less than 15 years old. It's just a soulless cash...

It's just a soulless cash grab relying on (very recent) nostalgia.

"Please Don't be live action"
*Inside me * "Search your feelings, you know it to be true."
Et Tu, Dreamworks? I thought you were the anti-disney.
Boomer Rant aside, it looks really good on a technical level. Toothless is composited really well into the scene. I'm sure the cast is well experience, but I'm also glad I don't see any onligatory "Butts in seats A star with questionable role" as well. I'm sure it'll be fine, but It's pretty much the opposite of what I want from an animation studio
but whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Whatever the market will bear

I feel like I’m trapped in some kind of Groundhog Day time loop the same movies keep coming out over and over again
This seems so totally unnecessary. The animated movie is great, and recent! This would be like remaking Moana
😬
That one is still a couple years off: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moana_(2026_film)
When it comes out, the animated movie will only be ten years old lol
We're due for a live action Wallace and Gromit, yeah?
Oh my fuck, I can actually picture how this would look.
Nick Park wouldn't do that to us though, right? Right?

That just be your Air Bud of the 2020's with extra steps.

This reminds me of that old "Live Action Zelda" trailer
