There is definitely something magical about seeing an imaginary, yet completely believable world come to life through the medium of animation. Certain story concepts feel like they could only be told using the freedom allowed by animation.
You hit the nail on the wall, my friend. I've always had a soft spot for animation and very few people shared that love with me but seeing your video makes me feels like I am not alone. Thank you.
for me, i really love animation, and its definitely a grouping that nowadays gets such a bad rap that if youre an adult you can enjoy it, that its just something for kids, and so long as theres people with that mindset, animation will always an under-rated medium
Listen. I love animation. I personally love animation much more than live action. But saying it's better than live action is a gross exaggeration. They are both great mediums each with their own pros and cons. Neither will be able to replace the other.
Well said. At the end of the day it's just a subjective opinion, I personally think there's just much more you can do in an animated medium, and since I'm a fan of sci-fi & fantasy, it means there's no limit to what can be done! :)
COULD NOT agree more! Animation is basically all I watch 'cause I've just NEVER really clicked much with live action stuff, yk? Ofc, there are always some exceptions, lol, but still! LOVE animation SO damn much! (I miss 2D animation in Disney movies SO much! ;A;)
A good summary it honestly pains me how much live action isn’t used to what it can be cause when I was younger I did like it more than animated movies cause it was more cooler to me and now it seems as animated has beaten them and I’m ok with it
I agree with Mr. Munuera; animation is indeed so much better than live action. Animation can tell stories in ways live action cannot. For the record, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse was the most emotional animated film I have seen in a long time. I wonder what Miguel's thoughts on the looming threat of AI are?
I think AI will definitely revolutionize the industry, but in a way that enhances creativity and storytelling even more. I don't think it'll put everyone out of a job
@@miguelmunuera2601 it's by the same author as one punch man, but honestly it's much better in my opinion. It's one of the most grounded shows with some of the best character work I've seen, every character has a realistic and fulfilled character arc. Plus, some of the best animation I've ever had the pleasure of laying my eyes on, as it's done by studio bones. Honestly I could go on and on about it but it's relatively short and has a perfect ending so I can't recommend it enough
@@dominicpiovesan1715 oh my god it actually sounds amazing. You kinda made me wanna watch it as soon as possible. But maybe I'll have to wait until I start my anime reaction channel 👀
Animation is far more maluable than live action. To play with the medium of animation is like a child playing with clay. He can warp the very fabric of the universe within his hands. To use live action is like a child trying to play with a stone. It has already been set in place with it's rules and boundaries. Unchangeable, hard, rigid and souless. So to is live action. Man is not meant to be able to warp reality no matter how many fancy gadgets he has. His efforts will always be in vain. Usually with less than stellar results. For he is not made to do such things but to be content with what he has been given control over.
I don’t like how this Video’s title is Animation is better than Live Action. Look I like Animation but, Animation and Live Action should be both loved equally. Nothing is going to be better than one thing. Anyone agree with me?
Even I agree with you. But part of a successful RUclips video is being slightly controversial. I really love animation, and I stand by my arguments but of course there's a place for both in film :)
As a classic 2D animator, I love seeing videos of people with sensitivity to the point of knowing how to appreciate the art that is animation, very motivational! 😊
@@miguelmunuera2601 ahahhah, I admire your ability to talk to the camera. Yes! I'm a 2D animator, I post my work on my RUclips channel, I have many projects yet to come, I'm very inspired by Disney classics from the Renaissance era.😃 You're right, it's one of the most creative forms of art to work on in my opinion.
Yooo same here! I’m definitely still a rookie with it but animating frame-by-frame really gives you more appreciation for all the effort that goes into making these films. I’ll stare at an scene in a movie where there’s like five characters moving at the same time like “godamn that must’ve taken a lot of time.”
When it comes to forms of stop motion I definitely prefer claymation to cut out animation, mainly because you don’t have to worry about accidentally breathing too hard and ruining your entire scene. 🗿
I personally wouldn’t compare animation with live-action. Yeah, film overall is a visual medium, and it’s nice that are two different styles of filmmaking out there, but I wouldn’t try to compare them to each other. These two mediums strive for a lot of different goals and aren’t supposed to be directly compared. Not hating, just saying.
I definitely get where you're coming from. And tbh this is more an opinion piece of what I've preferred recently and why I have, but both mediums are definitely great :)
Haha thanks a ton! Appreciate the compliment, there's also way more where this came from. I love animation so I find myself inclined to make more videos about it going forward :)
This is why I've been watching more anime than western stuff recently. There's just so much good animation in anime, and practically all of the western stuff has been shitty live action or 3D animation but corporate and boring(aside from The Last Wish, Encanto, and Spiderman)
Facts lol, that's also been the case for me. Idk what Japan is doing but they're really doing some amazing animation. The west really needs to take notes..
@miguelmunuera2601 Definitely, they need to take notes from Ufotable specifically. Idk if you know them, but they are the company that made Demon Slayer and the Fate series, seriously the best 2D(although they also incorporate 3D) animation I've ever seen. People credit the first Spiderman movie for the revolutionary combination of 2D and 3D animation, but Ufotable did it first. Even the stuff Ufotable made in 2011 looks way better than most anime today. On another note, there's an anime that really sticks out to me that wasn't made by Ufotable, and it's called Land of the Lustrous. They also use 2D and 3D and oh. My. God. It's so gorgeous, the art style is so unique, I could watch it a billion times for It's animation alone. The characters in it are made out of gems, and the way they animated their hair, eyes, and their insides when they shatter(dw they recover) is just stunning. Its so underrated, if you haven't watched it then I highly recommend it. Honestly I like the look of that anime much more than I do the recent trailer for Wish. Anyway, anime is just more creative than the western stuff recently too, so that's another reason I really enjoy it. I think it's because there's less competition(Well, also Covid and the strikes). I mean, Disney now owns Marvel AND Star Wars, there's pretty much nothing that can face them currently. When there's less competition, people take less risks, and therefore less creative. Anime is so creative because 99% of the time it's adapted from manga, and most manga is made by individuals or very small businesses, so there is a crap ton of competition. Also, I don't get why Disney has completely moved away from 2D animation. Like they think it's because 3D will sell better, but is that really true? Look at how much money the Demon Slayer movie made. Everyone I talk to wants 2D animation to come back, so how could 2D not sell well. Do they think it's outdated because 3D animation used more recent technology? Who cares? As of right now, you can do a lot more with 2D animation than you can with 3D, and 2D leaves more room for creativity. I really hope they do go back to 2D in the future, because if they think 3D is more profitable, they're wrong
This comment is amazing hahaha, love that you went all out. And 100% I'll have to check that anime you mentioned, ofc I know ufotable, they're amazing! And yeah that's what I've been wondering...why Disney doesn't do 2D, it would CLEARLY make them more money
As an animator, there is still no magic like animation. people say that things become less magical the more you know about them. Well, no matter how much I understand animation and the scientific principles behind how it's possible, I understand the principles of animation, I still have no idea how it's even possible! I mean of course I know how it's possible but like... DRAWINGS!?!?! LOOKING ALIVE!!?? or even puppets looking alive? I understand how it's possible, but nevertheless I am still in awe of its true magic. This is the one thing in the world that I would consider *real* magic. Not fake magic, REAL magic. By the way, if you want another animated media to watch, check out Zeurel's Monkey Wrench on RUclips. It's an independent animated series that's getting its third episode this december
I always like to think that there are movies that would be better animated, and ones that be better as live action. Ex A live Spiderverse would be terrible because it would be impossible to replicate in that format, but at the same time an animated remake a of live action movie like Green Mile or The Art of Racing in the Rain would be as impossible because the actual actors make it that much better-
Very true. There are some stories that are just so much better in a certain format. That's why the obsession of animating live action movies sucks 90% of the time
First of all... Awesome video! Secondly I agree with everything you said in this video, and as a simple girl who pretty much grew up watching anything Animated, dragged her Mom to the movie theaters as a child, eventually got into Anime as a teenager and want to learn how to Animate my own OC cat characters as a young adult, I think I understand now as an adult why I've always loved warching Animation because of the magical, mystical and wonderful landscape of colors, shapes, stories, and characters that we can possibly relate with... (my favorite examples are Lilio and Jim Hawkins from Lilo and Stitch and Treasure Planet respectively) and I'll admit that I love movies like Harry Potter and Lord Of The Rings mainly because I love fantasy content too but the way Animation can take yiu to incredibly amazing new places that you can't see or do in real life or live action, and when it comes to Anime it's pretty much the same experience only with a LOT more heavier emotions throw into the mix... (my favorite Animes are Clannad, Pokemon and of course Studio Ghibli movies) and yes i know that we know all that we use Animation and Anime as way to escape from reality or use it as a coping mechanism to deal with death or loss and that's OK, we all have our own different and unique "characters" about ourselves too and that's what makes us all special and I think that's what makes bith these interesting genres of content complex, interesting and pleasant to watch as well. As for anything that Disney has done to almost ruin themselves by making live action remakes of their classic Disney movies?... I have one thing to say about that ... THEY NEED TO STOP IT! Because clearly it hasn't worked before and it's not going to keep working now! Because it's like you said... "There's many impossible things people can do in Animation than in Live Action" and honestly? I wholeheartedly agree, nothing can beat the classics and I'm honestly happy that Disney is FINALLY getting their traditional act back together and making something marvelous like the new movie "WISH" because I believe it shows us that they still have the magical touch by bringing us something wonderful by bringing in 2D and 3D Animation to create something truly spectacular and it's a shame that most Disney fans aren't really appreciating the fact that Disney is finally going back to their roots and bringing us a new, interesting, unique, complex, awesome and amazing while making us feel like we're on a real adventure again instead of trying to make another cash-grabbing, re-hashing, nostalgia induced movie and I'm happy we got the old Disney back, at least for a short time but I'm hoping truer fans like me will see the wonderful marvelous and gorgeous looking new Animation movie for the spectacular new movie it's tuly meant to be and that goes for the new Studio Ghibli movie too, it's clear they hadn't lost their magic and I hope Disney won't truly loose their magic thouch either.
Thanks for the amazing comment!! Couldn't agree with you more on all these points. Also great choices in Lilo and Jim Hawkins 👀 great characters. I actually just watched WISH last night and plan on making a vid about it!
Absolutely spot on, Miguel! Despite CGI wonders of late, animation has unmatchable capacity of capturing (and captivating) the child we are or have been, of transmitting poetry and emotions through that child’s eyes, and heart, and in so doing touch our inner souls. There is no surpassing that. Look forward to your next video 👍
As a 2D animator myself, I agree with all your points! Something else I love about animation is that you can explore emotions in a way that live action can't quite do. When a character is sad, they look even more sorrowful than an actual human being, or when they're happy, they display intense exhilaration! It's easier for me to feel sympathy towards an animated character than a live action one personally. Sometimes characters displaying emotions feel more real than reality itself.
So awesome to get a comment from an actual 2D animation!! I feel honored haha. And yeah 100%, characters are so much more emotive in animation it's definitely a breath of fresh air
animation is probably one of the most important things to me, and its so incredibly disappointing to see the legend of zelda movie being live action. ive never been into zelda, but seriously?? its so awful to me. animation sends shivers down my spine and really stuns me, while live action never really has done that for me (besides some really good movies!! one being the greatest showman because the music is just so incredible to me and the meaning n dances) but live action can never really just capture the most stunning feeling of it all
Honestly I've never been into Zelda either and I also know that's just a crime..I totally agree too. Animation makes me feel things that life action rarely does
Well said, I have always believed the power of animated was limitless and live action was more limited, perhaps not with every example but the best of animation has given me more enjoyment than most live action film. Not to mention not every live action is for mature adults as they claim, just like animation is not just for kids but for people that want excellent storytelling and a visual feast.
@@miguelmunuera2601 yes, like you said it comes from watching so many amazing animated movies and shows as a kid, but as an adult you just appreciate the workmanship and skilled writing that made these cartoons great, to the point they feel timeless.
You ain’t lying at ALL! This is exactly why I haven’t watched Disney live action since Jungle book and ALLADDIN not because of what people whine about nowadays like is it preachy woke etc no it’s just the animated work is better! Little mermaid the animated movie feels Alive ,One piece live action was great but the anime is way better to convey the stuff I’ve seen b4!
I wonder why Hollyood hates animation so much.... because that is why western culture won't take 2D animation seriously as an artistic medium, because the people in charge of western entertainment detests it (not the audience).
@@miguelmunuera2601 no clue but that's what 3d is. More difficult but costs less. It's probably because you don't have to recreate assets in 3d like you do with handdrawn animation
I do see your point, but you hardly talked about live action Live action can be impressive as well, especially when it's filmed on location/set or uses practical effects. From Star Wars to Alien to The Dark Crystal to Jurassic Park to Pirates of the Caribbean, not all movies are meant to animated
weird that in your thumbnail you used an image from mappa 3D animation of attack on titan (instead of WIT's traditional animation ) to illustrate how good animation is 🤷♀
@@miguelmunuera2601it will never be kids movie is not more valuable than cinema liveaction some films are better as cartoon som are better on film why dont yall understand about that
YES thank you! Like seeing this makes me feel grateful to have grown up with older Disney movies that like my grandparents appreciated and hoped for me to be taught some valuable lessons on life to be prepared for
@@miguelmunuera2601 This might not be for you (the process of animation is not one many consider fun to watch), but it's an anime called "Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken"
Glad the algorithm threw your video at me. Totally agree. I will say though that you can stylize live-action too, but it looks much better in animation.
as a big animation fan since childhood I agree , lately alll animation content I adore since quarantine to binge or discover as less live action films or stories disinterest me for multitude of reasons!!!
This is 2d animation is so much better. Live action is dull and boring. If Disney wanted to bring in younger audience or old time fan, then they should bring back 2D animation just like they did with that short animated film for their 100th anniversary. Of cruise knowing Disney didn’t. Disney relies on too much A.I. and making live action film that won’t make money. Plus, poor casting choices. Their actor/actresses were very toxic and placing their self insert into these characters that doesn’t need to be. To me personally, Disney doesn’t care. Sure, they say they care about the fandom with their fake smile, they really don’t care at all. Disney lost the magic for - I don’t know how long. I believe they are too far gone at this point.

I wholeheartedly agree, nothing can beat the classics and I'm honestly happy that Disney is FINALLY getting their traditional act back together and making something marvelous like the new movie "WISH" because I believe it shows us that they still have the magical touch by bringing us something wonderful by bringing in 2D and 3D Animation to create something truly spectacular and it's a shame that most Disney fans aren't really appreciating the fact that Disney is finally going back to their roots and bringing us a new, interesting, unique, complex, awesome and amazing while making us feel like we're on a real adventure again instead of trying to make another cash-grabbing, re-hashing, nostalgia induced movie and I'm happy we got the old Disney back, at least for a short time but I'm hoping truer fans like me will see the wonderful marvelous and gorgeous looking new Animation movie for the spectacular new movie it's tuly meant to be and that goes for the new Studio Ghibli movie too, it's clear they hadn't lost their magic and I hope Disney won't truly loose their magic thouch either.
Thanks for the amazing comment!! Couldn't agree with you more on all these points. Also great choices in Lilo and Jim Hawkins 👀 great characters. I actually just watched WISH last night and plan on making a vid about it!
Absolutely spot on, Miguel! Despite CGI wonders of late, animation has unmatchable capacity of capturing (and captivating) the child we are or have been, of transmitting poetry and emotions through that child’s eyes, and heart, and in so doing touch our inner souls. There is no surpassing that. Look forward to your next video 👍
Thanks for the amazing comment! I couldn't agree more
As a 2D animator myself, I agree with all your points! Something else I love about animation is that you can explore emotions in a way that live action can't quite do. When a character is sad, they look even more sorrowful than an actual human being, or when they're happy, they display intense exhilaration! It's easier for me to feel sympathy towards an animated character than a live action one personally. Sometimes characters displaying emotions feel more real than reality itself.
So awesome to get a comment from an actual 2D animation!! I feel honored haha. And yeah 100%, characters are so much more emotive in animation it's definitely a breath of fresh air
animation is probably one of the most important things to me, and its so incredibly disappointing to see the legend of zelda movie being live action. ive never been into zelda, but seriously?? its so awful to me. animation sends shivers down my spine and really stuns me, while live action never really has done that for me (besides some really good movies!! one being the greatest showman because the music is just so incredible to me and the meaning n dances) but live action can never really just capture the most stunning feeling of it all
Honestly I've never been into Zelda either and I also know that's just a crime..I totally agree too. Animation makes me feel things that life action rarely does
What’s your favourite animated movie??
Gotta be Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, oh my god what a movie
no surprise there
@@israelcadetftwsierra8254 what's yours?
I can't pick just one
Princess Mononoke
Props to you for not saying cgi is bad, plenty of these other kinds of videos have downplayed it.
CGI has done some absolute wonders, no point hating on it imo
Well said, I have always believed the power of animated was limitless and live action was more limited, perhaps not with every example but the best of animation has given me more enjoyment than most live action film. Not to mention not every live action is for mature adults as they claim, just like animation is not just for kids but for people that want excellent storytelling and a visual feast.
Couldn't agree more!! I also think that the best animation has given me more enjoyment than the best live action, there's just something about it
@@miguelmunuera2601 yes, like you said it comes from watching so many amazing animated movies and shows as a kid, but as an adult you just appreciate the workmanship and skilled writing that made these cartoons great, to the point they feel timeless.
Ngl Animation And Live Action are great in their many different ways especially most of my favorite films are some animated and some live action
Well said!
@@miguelmunuera2601 thanks! 😄
You ain’t lying at ALL! This is exactly why I haven’t watched Disney live action since Jungle book and ALLADDIN not because of what people whine about nowadays like is it preachy woke etc no it’s just the animated work is better! Little mermaid the animated movie feels Alive ,One piece live action was great but the anime is way better to convey the stuff I’ve seen b4!
Yeah they don't even COMPARE tbh. Although I'm very curious to see how the one piece live action compares to the anime
I wonder why Hollyood hates animation so much.... because that is why western culture won't take 2D animation seriously as an artistic medium, because the people in charge of western entertainment detests it (not the audience).
it's not even the filmmakers that hate it either. it's the executives
I don't necessarily think they hate 2D animation. I think 3D animation is just more cost-effective maybe?
@@miguelmunuera2601 yeah 3D animation is a lot more cost effective (although truth be told it's more difficult than 2D animation)
@@Xenderman how can something be harder to do but more cost-effective?
@@miguelmunuera2601 no clue but that's what 3d is. More difficult but costs less. It's probably because you don't have to recreate assets in 3d like you do with handdrawn animation
I do see your point, but you hardly talked about live action
Live action can be impressive as well, especially when it's filmed on location/set or uses practical effects. From Star Wars to Alien to The Dark Crystal to Jurassic Park to Pirates of the Caribbean, not all movies are meant to animated
I agree don't get me wrong, but this was more of an opinion piece on why animation is better. That was the argument I was trying to make :)
weird that in your thumbnail you used an image from mappa 3D animation of attack on titan (instead of WIT's traditional animation ) to illustrate how good animation is 🤷♀
Why? They're both still great animation. Plus the characters are 2D animation
Animation childish?!? 🫢 🫠
😳😳
@@miguelmunuera2601its very childish aminated movies are for kids not for adults
@@Dcuniverse60 not at all, you're missing out on the depth and seriousness of animation ;)
I don't freakin' understand why so many studios lately see Live Action is a boom, is it so much cheaper to make a live action movie?
Honestly I'm not sure..makes no sense
@@miguelmunuera2601true that and amination is takes a long to make more so longer than a liveaction movie spider verse i proof of that
Animation is not better than live action
Why? 🤔
It depends there are both great live action movies and animated movies
@@miguelmunuera2601it will never be kids movie is not more valuable than cinema liveaction some films are better as cartoon som are better on film why dont yall understand about that
Cinderella (2015), The Jungle Book (2016) and Pete's Dragon (2016) are the top 3 Best Disney Live-Action Remakes. ❤️❤️
I really need to watch these!! I've only seen the jungle book live action remake
YES thank you! Like seeing this makes me feel grateful to have grown up with older Disney movies that like my grandparents appreciated and hoped for me to be taught some valuable lessons on life to be prepared for
That's so awesome honestly!!
Watch Texhnolyze, best animated show of all time.
Another anime recommendation, damn I'm gonna have to get watching these soon! I just checked it out and it looks so awesome..
@@miguelmunuera2601 This might not be for you (the process of animation is not one many consider fun to watch), but it's an anime called "Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken"
FACTS
Hahaha hell yeah!
I feel like animation has way more character and emotion than live action is
Same!!
Glad the algorithm threw your video at me. Totally agree. I will say though that you can stylize live-action too, but it looks much better in animation.
Yeah that is very true, and I considered that but like you said it just looks better in animation
as a big animation fan since childhood I agree , lately alll animation content I adore since quarantine to binge or discover as less live action films or stories disinterest me for multitude of reasons!!!
Right?? I just don't feel that it gets the respect it deserves unfortunately..
I hope the people can keep this freedom of creativity 🙏
I feel like the creativity has definitely declined in the past decade but let's hope it goes back up in western animation
This is 2d animation is so much better. Live action is dull and boring. If Disney wanted to bring in younger audience or old time fan, then they should bring back 2D animation just like they did with that short animated film for their 100th anniversary. Of cruise knowing Disney didn’t.
Disney relies on too much A.I. and making live action film that won’t make money. Plus, poor casting choices. Their actor/actresses were very toxic and placing their self insert into these characters that doesn’t need to be. To me personally, Disney doesn’t care. Sure, they say they care about the fandom with their fake smile, they really don’t care at all. Disney lost the magic for - I don’t know how long. I believe they are too far gone at this point.
Yeah they really don't seem to care about good films as much as they used to..
I would take Fight Club over any animated media 1000 times over !
I definitely respect that
Agreed
I think its the story first but animation can push it beyond what live action can do
Well said
Also why do you have so little subscribers? Your videos are amazing
@@Samsstuff10 Thanks man really appreciate it! Honestly I guess it's just because I started a few months ago and I'm still figuring RUclips out, but I know it'll grow in the future :)
KIDS MOVIE ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT HAHA
