    When they talk about the simplicity about the mechanical arm, I think that's a huge plus. Because my brain can understand every movement and piece going on, so it looks interesting and functional. When I see something like a transformation on the Michael Bay transformers movies I just see a blob of nonsense, it's too complex so I just see visual noise and it's less interesting than this thing that I can read and understand how it works.

      Yup agree 100%. Yeah the detail of like the transformers is cool to see maybe once in a controlled environment, but with it always being that way it just kinda becomes visual diarrhea and looks like blurry shapes mashing into other blurry shapes. This arm has that level of detail where I think, Yeah this could actually exist to a degree and that really sells the awesome factor of it.

    "it's part of the performance."
    THANK YOU for mentioning that. Animation, once it all comes together, it's so much more....IN DEPTH than any live action anything ever. EVERYTHING goes into animation, even a characters pose cause it will say so much about the scene, the character, the tone. Your mind can connect to the body language of what's going on really easily with animation vs live action. You can see Jinx scream and slam her hand against the machine and go "oh she's kinda losing it." or see Powder crouched low on the ground, huddled in on herself and go "she's distraught." a character widening their eyes and their pupils constricting is so much more impactful than a human widening their eyes cause you can REALLY get up close and personal with it. Animation is an art, and the art is putting on a show. More people need to understand this.

      The only thing I didn't like (and it's very nit picky) is how obnoxiously overemotional Jinx could be at times. I understand it's part of her character, but it got to the point of being annoying sometimes. Like, oh here we go, she's gonna have another tantrum again.

    • @DarthRayj
      @DarthRayj 2 года назад +25

      @@pearodox That's not just part of her character, it's part of how someone who's been intensely traumatized repeatedly from a young age IS. I've been romantically involved with more than one person with Borderline Personality Disorder, one of whom straight up said Jinx in Arcane is highly relatable, and that is sometimes how people can act. Yes, it gets annoying, but like, it's REAL, it's not just Riot being quirky and making the character a trigger-happy maniac (which is actually more accurate to her in-game persona); they actually took the time to write her as if she was highly traumatized. It's part of why you don't ever know *what* she's going to do when she has a tantrum. Her in-game persona would be predictable and blow something up, but with Arcane, she might break down sobbing, she might blow something up, she might pretend like everything was fine but you'd still know something was off, she might blame someone else, she might blame herself, you DON'T KNOW what she's going to do but the possibilities are never good, for herself OR anyone else.

    My favourite part about the boxing scene that they didn't really touch on it how it sells that Jinx COULD have beaten Vi's score if she was more controlled. Between the braids, the follow-through and pose variety they're showing a *lot* of wasted movement, whereas Vi is always tight, controlled and in a centered posture. But of course that's central to both their characters: Vi is typically very controlled, whereas Jinx is right on the edge of losing it at any given time, and this is yet another fantastic example of how that's demonstrated via their respective fighting styles.

      Jinx x Ekko talks a lot about their previous relationship and hints how they deal their with memories, ekko using his memories for combat and jinx being haunted by her past.
      Vi and Jayce really shows how confident and experienced Vi is in a fight (sharp, clean objetive hits, dodges) compared with Jayce's anxiety followed by over excitement (overkill hits, slow big swings, close calls). That fight is extremely important to understand why Jayce changed his approach to the situation after he experienced a real fight with casualties.

    I've trained my dogs to understand anticipation movement... by doing that same looney toons movement before I dash across a space so now my dog barks and bolts forward just by doing that antic sometime even just doing slow motion movements makes them think i'm gonna run or dash!
    This further supports that dogs understand that reality has rules this was supported by a study that if a dog was shown a physics engine of a ball then they would be uncomfortable and confused when the creator animated the ball to move in a way that it wouldn't in real life!
    so I have been applying this methodology since one if my dogs is particularly smart in this area to see how far I could push it and train new rules to build anticipation that it's simply how that works... only to break those expectations by doing something completely different to see if he can understand that the rules I built originally never existed to begin with and can understand that there are rule of unpredictability... it's my hope to train him to think smarter with adaptive thinking by allowing him to understand that some rules aren't set in stone!
    and that new rules can be made!... I understand in this process if I could succeed i'd be making a monster who will manipulate you to get his own way... but as long as I get him to compartmentalise that to specific situations not situations dealing with humans it would be best... incidentally in this process i've found him slowly become more well behaved i've already trained him to give me his paw instead of barking loudly to say please and when I have a treat he does this now without command putting his paw on my leg or on any surface he can find pre-emptively to say please in advance!
    the older dog she I still have to say "paw" to... he however just gives me his paw without asking... often resulting in a hand shake because he has learned that if he does this he not only gets the treat but gets praised for being a such good boy!
    So there have been benefits to teaching my dogs critical thinking, with the older dog it doesn't work so much but due to the younger dog having the mentality of a puppy still... he is curious and fascinated always watching and listening to what family members do... he's studying us and is eager to learn more from us... which means he has untapped potential in intelligence that others could see due to his child like nature... but due to my autism I can relate in that regard used to being underestimated myself i'm developing a strong bond like an older brother!
    and I perhaps am the only one in the family capable of training and teaching him due to my unique position and my ability to understand emotive behaviour in both humans and animals just by looking and analyzing them there and then!
    I dunno how the studies of Milo and my training him may bare fruit for society but who knows what the future brings really anyways i'm gonna continue watching and stop tangenting

    Hey guys! I really think you guys should look into the "Love, Death & Robots" anthology from Netflix, some of the best, most high-quality animation and CGI i've seen in a long time! I rewatched both volumes recently and after watching your 'React' series I have a new-found appreciation for it. A LOT of the episodes use more realistic CGI (some episodes also seem to incorporate comping, mo-cap, or real footage), but many of the episodes use more stylised 3D-animation, I think you guy could give some really interesting criticism and/or feedback.
    But regardless of whether you see this or not, I love Corridor content and i'm glad to support you. Keep up the fantastic work!

I almost prefer animation to live action bc you're not constrained by what's physically possible, some stories just can't be told through live action. THis and SPiderverse are good examples. film and tv is so focused on making it look photoreal, when that was never the point. the point was to make art, and art doesn't have to look photoreal. From a writing standpoint, this show is just a masterpiece. there's like over 80 analysis videos on this one show, each one covering a diffferent aspect of the show. that's really saying something. truly an inspiration to all artists out there
