    I'm gonna start trying something new with the titles of my reviews to make them a bit more...eye catching, per se. I won't go full desperately clickbait, but give it a title that can grab more attention than what I did before where it was as simple as it got. Let me know if you like this new title format :)

    @WillieManga 4 года назад +24

    For what it's worth, this is the best movie based on a Dr. Seuss movie, honestly. While Jim Carrey was okay as the Grinch, he managed to play as Horton as faithfully kind as an elephant can be while still having some of that Carrey zaniness. That's the thing, a lot of these movies didn't seem to understand the point of the characters. The 2018 version of The Grinch played it too safe, The Lorax was convoluted and The Cat in the Hat was just awful and mean spirited. This film knows just what it needs to be. It understands the message of the original Horton books.

I originally just watched it because of Daveed Diggs and Keegan Michael Key, but I ended up loving the plot and the characters. It's turned from this 5-minute book of a stranger bursting into someone's home and pressuring him to eat something, into a heartwarming series about friendship. I can't wait for the second season!

      That movie irked me for a small reason: you see, Triton has a jail for prisoners. At one point he arrests Sebastian and the Catfish Club (how do I remember the band's name!?), and at the end the villain and her manatee sidekick are arrested. Thing is, one of the band members is a turtle, and as I just said, the manatee guy is then also placed in the cell. Turtles and manatees breathe air, and the cell is under water, with no absolute sign of access to the surface. Realistically, being placed in this cell would be the death penalty for air-breathing prisoners, so WTF, Triton!? Also the manatee didn't even deserve to be arrested and was simply put there cuz he worked for Marina. But he actually never did anything wrong and was rather sweet and cute, and he even tried to talk sense into Marina and was horrified at her plan. But still, the poor guy gets placed in the cell with his boss, where he's doomed to drown. WTF, Disney!? Manatees are endangered!

    Also, I had a very 'unhealthy' obsession with one of the characters in the film, Vlad Vladikoff when I was a child, and honestly, I still love him now as a young adult. Vlad's eccentric personality, his Russian accent, and just how goofy he is, despite trying to make himself to be a frightening creature, won my heart. He's just so silly, and I love him for it! 😅😅😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  • @WillieManga
    @WillieManga 2 года назад +1

    You know, it's funny how we complain when the animation goes overboard with movement and expressions only for this to both have it and do it right. Maybe it's because of the increased level of detail compared to Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. In that film, there's a distracting lack of texture to the character models, and the characters themselves move too unnaturally even for a cartoon. Not only does this movie put in more effort into the models and dial the animation back more, but I do gotta appreciate its use of lighting. And it also works to the movie's benefit on account of it being a Dr. Seuss movie. This is how you do surreal animation correctly.

    Congrats! You have two films left that are officially made by Blue Sky, one final Ice Age film, and the movie that gave us Bigweld. Yes, I am aware of the Disney+ knockoffs of a Rio 3 and Ice Age 7, but those are not official Blue Sky.

    I personally love this movie! It was my favourite blue sky film, until the peanuts movie came out. Not to mention it’s also my favourite Dr Seuss movie, though the live action Grinch is a close second, (which also happened to star Jim Carrey!)
    The scene where the who’s have to prove that they are there, can get really intense, I do find myself biting my nails just hoping they’ll prove it in time. That part where Horton gets caged makes my heart sink and I do nearly scream when the clover gets dropped but get a sense of relief when Rudy catches it in time.

    Horton hears a Who was good. Netflix's Green Eggs and Ham was amazing! Both of them are still the most charming and enjoyable Dr. Seuss adaptations in recent years.

What is it with Blue Sky and making cute characters like Louis,Una and Walter Beckett? Funny enough I had just finished watching the Ice Age series and Ferdinand! Oh well back to your review!

    I was still the textbook definition of a kid when this came out, but still remember going to theaters to see it. Some of the comedy still makes me laugh, some have probably stopped being as amusing as I might have thought, and there are some new things that make me laugh a little.

    ❤️💖 To be honest, this is one of my personal favorite Blue Sky films and one of the better animated film adaptations based on a children's book compare to what most animated films based on children's books failed to do. I saw this movie since I was in middle school and watched it again during a place with my sister in our trip to Mexico and I have beautiful nostalgia memories seeing it. I praised it for it's storytelling, writing, animation, characters, music and voice acting performances as well. 💖❤️

    For those of you wondering why Animat gave this movie an oddly high 7/10. It’s because he’s all way too nice to Illumination and rates the grinch (2018) 6/10. He new that Horton was objectively better so he was forced to give a 7/10.

    This movie is quite underrated imo, since despite not only being one of the best animated Dr. Seuss films, but one of Blue Sky’s better films, I rarely hear anybody talk about it. Rather than feeling padded out, bloated and artificial like The Lorax did, it truly feels like they expanded this simple book into a big and grand adventure of an elephant who is faithful 100%.

  • @EngineerRiff

    I never truly understood the Kangaroo’s motives. Why is she so up in arms about one animal’s silly belief? If anything, the kids’ll think he was making it up in the future and outgrow it. Why did she get the whole jungle to hunt down Horton and essentially imprison him? Can someone please explain those whole fiasco to me?

    • @Bleeding_Art
      @Bleeding_Art 3 года назад +2

      because even if the kids did grow out of it, the fact that there is another society scares her because then there is something to compare the ways of the jungle to and theyll start to question her leadership. She uses the excuse of saving the children as a way to save herself. She even admits to it in the end "when the children start to learn about worlds beyond the jungle theyll start to question authority, which leads to defiance, which leads to anarchy"
