Rock Dog

#1 Post by Myperson54 »

I personally think Zootopia looks bland and uninspired. Here's a movie that might be alright. Not as nice fur textures, but the animation is solid and the voice acting is nice and charismatic.

Yeah, the title is in Cyrillic and the subs are in Japanese, but the audio is English.

Always room for another coming-of-age story. I shall endeavour to watch both.

(Also, that's Chinese)

Ech, I saw the characters and assumed the entire thing was in Kanji. To be fair, Japan stole Kanji from China.

The entire thing is in kanji. That's how you can tell. If it was Japanese, it would have kana as well :P

But seems like a cute movie. Any idea on release, beyond 'fall'?

-- Edit: Or 'coming soon', since apparently I dreamt up the 'fall'.

Ah, of course. I completely forgot about particles and names that would otherwise be spelled out in kana.

I have no information regarding a release date. This is so new, 8chan's /furry/ board only had two posts about it, and it doesn't have a Wikipedia entry. Google searches yield sparse results.

setting looks rather anachronistic, or whatever the word for it is... past/future things in the same place, hadoukens alongside handguns, etc.

Certainly rather chinese-inspired, the trailer has piqued my curiosity.

This looks like a good movie. Definately not anythig I havent seen before, but it might have a new take and some good scenes.

(as others have already pointed out those are chinese subtitles, not japanese ones. I recognize a few of the characters here and there to tell)

So... this apparently is actually going to get released now. Or maybe? New trailers, anyway.

Looks like it's slated for 2017

Looks interesting, though it's movies like this that make me wonder why they need to be animals in the first place. I mean, for Zootopia it made sense because they made predator-prey relations an allegory for social issues in real life, as well as played around with how a city would work with a bunch of sentient species of animals. Here I just don't see a reason for it.

Why? Because of the diversity and variety in character design. And because it's a cartoon, and for expression.
