I love all the movies these guys do, but my favorite is still Coraline
subbadubba
If you must blink, do it now
ManOfFocus
No joke, when I saw it, the theater had a blackout exactly during that line. In the darkness, someone shouted "GOD DAMN IT SOMEONE BLINKED."
BinxTheCat
It was a great movie....i cried..
yourmotherisanaardvark
I cried too!!
AntonChigur
LuftMeister
I was very mild to this movie. Just really didn't grip me, still worth a watch for most though.
lurkmorepostnever
I agree glad i saw it but not nearly my favorite animated movie.
Br0doSwaggins
Loved the cover of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" at the end
FullMetalBitch
I known I want to learn it ninny shamisen! It's the perfect combo of American and Japanese
XtraKrispified
You can watch it on Netflix now.
MarshmallowFluffernutterPie
Except that its story was trite and stale.
SleepDeprivedAstronaut
OK FINE I'LL WATCH IT
PiGiSpi
It was very good, but I think people are overblowing how good it was.
LapisScarab
Solid good movie, though I think it could have been better written, characters were a bit confused. Still don't regret seeing it though.
grizzlybeerz
The animation in this is absolutely some of the best out there. Truly incredible. Can't wait to see what these guys do in the future.
frankreynoldsthefrogkid
The storytelling in this was amazing. I loved the origami show
3L3M3NT50
The only good thing about that movie is the animation, the story is not that great in my opinion.
Ops11197
Dagordae
Very pretty. Too bad the story was utterly generic and they completely wasted Takai. Nice cover over the credits though.
DamianWinters
The movie was decent, I thought Zootopia was a much better animated movie released last year though.
LuckyWristbands
The story was as cookie cutter and predictable as ever, but premise and execution were Glorious
DishingOutTheDukkha
The story seemed a bit rushed/forced and a few of the voice actors did not seem to fit their character. Maybe I was too hyped.
DishingOutTheDukkha
Worth the watch though. Coraline too.
batteryforeverlow
Watched this just yesterday. Great animation and an even better story.
wobbu
"Even better story?" Pretty debatable. The ending was a spit in the face, and the beetle didn't contribute much to the plot or dialogue.
Dagordae
The story was incredibly generic. Honestly, that was the weakest part.
TheBeeSneeze
I disagree
notallyllama
I, love, you, monkey?
LynchlessMob
Moana was better....since we're injecting opinions here.
derpaderps
For the art style or the content?
insertnamehereifyouwanttobecool
What's it about
whiskeysix086
I've heard that Moana is great as well. It was a stacked year in that category. I too loved Kubo and the Two Strings
lionsilverwolf
Didn't like Kubo at all, but Moana made me cry. Twice.

Stop motion with me, stop motion with me

Everything Laika does is phenomenal. It's tragic that they keep losing out to Disney/Pixar.
WiqidBritt
They got that Nike money though, it's a labor of love for them. To the benefit of everyone.
Lilly64
They make great stuff, but even having loved everything they make, it's much more niche. It's excellent, but lacks Pixar's broad appeal
MrMightyMackerelMan
To be honest Pixar deserves all of their fame.
SideEffectsOfJuice
They do. They very much do. But still, I wish we had room for more big names.
MegaDiogenes
Pixar are a sequel machine more than anything (recently).
Schmuck4hire
That's because Disney purchased them. They've been reassurring people that all sequels are their ideas and not Disney's, but I feel like 1/
Schmuck4hire
it's in their best interests to protect Disnet. 2/2
MrMightyMackerelMan
What about Coco?
retrohellix
Ice T's wife?
MegaDiogenes
mmmmmmm
MegaDiogenes
The only film that isn't a sequel amongst their current and future projects.
CrankyLittleStormCloud
Coco is far too similar to Book of Life for my comfort.
Kobayen
Oscars are an indication and voting process. And more often than not, the ones voting only watch Disney.
drickanderson
The stop motion work in this just blows my mind, and the song at the end gets stuck in my head for days.
Tylendal
...while my shamisen gently weeps...
subbadubba
While my guitar..
stiligFox
I really thought it was 100% CGI until the very end, this is best stop motion I've ever seen
Ihavewaytoomanyfavoritestosort
Laika is basically one of the only two major studios still doing stop motion.
MustacheTheWhale
Who else makes stop motion movies?
Ihavewaytoomanyfavoritestosort
I thtnk they're called Ardman, those guys who do the Wallace and Grommit shorts.
FullMetalBitch
I know! Regina spektor's voice with that shamisen was perfect! I'm trying to learn it on my shamisen now
infamousxiii
habe you seen megamind?
SomethingCleverAndFunnyThatHasentBeenTaken
So your saying I should watch it?
SickOfThisCessPool
Watch it!
Twiddlederf
Absolutely
Valawyn
*you're
lionsilverwolf
My gf and I were so goddamned bored. It's a BORING MOVIE. Technically impressive but holy shit. 0/5 not even for the spectacle.
Neablis
It's fantastic. Great move to watch with a significant other/friends.
aleister94
Yes, and if you must blink make sure to do it beforehand
feralbritches
It's on Netflix now
ILaughUntilICry
The animation was good but I feel the plot had much to be desired. But I think I'm the minority on this opinion.
nnugles
There are dozens of us (possibly)
LionHeat
JUST DO IT
dbizzles
Solid 3/5, imo.
onecowboytoo
5/7
dbizzles
6/10
optimusgoose
Look up how it was made before watching so you know just how insanely talented these people are
ZzaLord
Isn't it done by the Latino guy (and I think lady) that was/were on the surface pro commercials??
