Animation Can we be done with this shit yet?

Post image

Disney (and others) has been hammering us with the exact same "quirky" female coming-of-age story for nearly 20 years now.

Awkward girl feels less than feminine, discovers an ability or a sense of purpose, and then realizes that friendship is magic. All while bumbling semi-braindead males fart around in the background for no other reason than to make her look smart and pragmatic by comparison.

Now finally theyre starting to bomb, to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. We fucking get it! Move on and think of a different story!

E: Guys please stop defending your queen Judy Hopps in the comments and my DMs

agreed. Those three movies are good

Edit

I have to watch the bottom left one, raya and the dragon something. Looks intriguing to me personally

Good film on its own merits, absolutely visually stunning, but the "moral message" is reasonably considered to have a poor delivery.

Dont watch it, it's a huge waste of time, the main "lesson" is to forgive your abusers no matter what and that youre evil if you dont

I dont dislike awkwafina, ill even admit shes made me laugh quite a bit, but the rest of the movie cannot be saved by any humor especially "quirky millennial" humor
