      I do see what the lack of understanding can do a bastard but lemme inform Y'all's this.
      We can do this now, and even quicker with the power of PCs can render this shit out.
      It's just that one- As it's been said, this shit ain't marketable. Hence why these near photo realistic styles of CGI styles are usually pretty costly if it comes to making smth profitable.
      Not to mention a movie like the Incredibles with a simple design philosophy and tone. I'd also like to point out the intricate details in that movie are actually pretty fucking great if you look closely enough.
      Add in Toy Story 4.
      These examples are just shit you'd probably say have bad animation, no, it's not bad animation.
      You don't like their design philosophy which is an entirely different argument.

    I love how the mayor is portrayed as a villain when we first meet him. He's so shady, and suspicious, that it's pretty easy to "sus" out that he's probably a bad dude. but, whatcha gonna do? he's the mayor, he controls the water, he has the trust of some people he manipulates. He perfectly encapsulates the idea of the corrupt politician as the main threat, but one you can't take head on at first, and have to be clever and amicable to avoid being found out that you're against him.

      I would have also lived to see a version where the secretary fox was the true villain behind it as she could be like a sly fox. The little exchange she has with beans at the tailor could be because she's the only person who has not given up her land. Maybe she is a red herring if you didn't immediately suspect the mayor as the villain. I'm still very satisfied with how they made the slow meticulous tortoise who can technically live up to 250 years be the antagonist.

    One of the things I find most fascinating about this movie is how, even though Rango basically bullshited his cowboy persona from the start he fully becomes it even before meeting Rattlesnake Jake and crossing the road, which fits the theme of our deeds making us who we are rather than what they say about us.

    I definitely remembered the plot details about Rango's freaky dream, about the water shortage, about Beans's weird tic of freezing in place at seemingly random, about Rattlesnake Jake, about urbanizing the town, about the random Mariachi Owls, even before watching this movie.

    I re-watch Rango every couple years. It still holds absurdly well today and looks better than most animated films you see. The amount of passion, care and attention for detail in this movie is mesmerizing. From the crew actually acting the scenes, stellar voice cast, from the research on the creatures, on top of those very heavily detailed designs. Rango came out during the boom of "CGI talking animals kids films" but it really stood out for the gritty character designs and more adult themes. It won a bunch of accolades, and well deservedly so.

    something that you didn't catch about Rango's Spirit of The West: He was voiced by Timothy Olyphant, who played Sheriff Bullock in the 2004 Western TV show Deadwood. The spirit of the west was Clint Eastwood, an iconic old western actor, and he was voiced by a famous modern western actor.

    I saw this movie in the drive in when it came out and I never really got it. Now as an adult who has become a fan of spaghetti westerns this movie makes total sense now. It’s a stylized homage to the spaghetti western but also has the awesome little detail that Rango (Jack Sparrow) faces off against Rattlesnake Jake (Davy Jones). Was a real treat hearing Depp and Nighy working together again. On top of that Hans Zimmer is a die hard fan of Ennio Moriccone. So it’s cool hearing Zimmer score a western. I mean, Zimmer uses the Two Mules for Sister Sara theme in Game of Shadows and Man with a Harmonica in Worlds End. Man obviously is a fan.

    Correction at 9:57, while Rango does make up the whole being brothers with rattlesnake jake he in fact isn't making stuff up about the spirit of the west. You may remember that the Armadillo gave a detailed description of the SotW to Rango earlier in the movie which to Rango brushed off as them being delusional and in the camp scene Rango then basically recites everything the armadillo said word for word.

    I remember rewatching the movie with the knowledge that it was made by Gore Verbinski, creator of the first 3 pirates films (which I loved) and the Lone Ranger 2013 (which I also loved). I will say, that definitely helped my liking of the film. I liked the film on its own, too, but it also worked as a Gore Verbinski action-adventure.

Really underated game, have seen no mention of it online, it and the movie pretty much defined a big part of my childhood.
