I've never seen Redline before now. I was crying with joy after the opening sequence for how energetic the action is, how good the soundtrack is, how rich and unique the animation style is.
@@SuLokify madhouse didnt go bankrupt from this movie but they are a shadow of their former selves, they made some of the most iconic animes of the 90s and early 2000s but haven't done much of note since. this is due to one of their core directors leaving though and taking a lot of talent with them to their new studio, not just their budgetary constraints.
@@jacklobb3510 In addition, that was actually one of Madhouse's cheaper projects. While other projects had 50+ people on them, Redline's core team was less than 20 people. Which likely contributed to the time over-run but kept the idea of what they wanted concise an reduced operating expenses. The movie largely flopped due to a non-existent advertising leading to it's release.
I never even heard of it until just now... ...Ok, I just came back from watching it. I'm sorry, but I absolutely hate this style of animation. I cannot stand it. No offense. lol
Like someone else said its not ALL done by hand but I think like 60% of it was? I could be wrong but regardless its still an insane amount of hand drawn frames either way.
I suggest doing a whole episode on Gendy Tartakovsky. The man is a genius when it comes to animation. You can go from the cartoons for kids that he started on like Dexter's Laboratory, to Samurai Jack (which is beautifully and incredibly artistic) to gritty darker Primal.
@@christiancline1131 Gendy has better action but lesser characters with some exceptions like General Grievous and Count Dooku. Anakin is different but I wouldn't say either better or worse and Kenobi is almost the same. Ventress and Padme are worse though.
believe it or not but it was also one of Madhouse's cheaper projects at the time which is why the production was allowed to drag on for 7 years. The entire dedicated team was less than 20 people.
The anime film I go to from time to time to remind myself what 'over-the-top amazingly animated' means. Not to mention that the film is really just the definition of cool.
I'd like to see the lads look at Batman: The Animated Series. The fact it was done on black paper is fascinating to me. I'd love to see them dig into it and some of the tricks the BTAS team did.
Here's a thought: compare the gold and silver age Disney classics to their various lower production sequels/tv shows. I know Cinderella, Aladdin, Little Mermaid, 101 Dalmatians, Lion King and Hercules are ones that got them and I'm sure there are others. It would be interesting to see where the sequels cut corners that make them look just a bit off compared to the originals.
Or the difference between the main studio, what is now Walt Disney Animation Studios, and the other animation studios that developed so many of those sub-par, money-grab sequels.
@@tzeege I’m sure he meant that, sometimes I accidentally call the renaissance era the golden era. I would love to see them talk about that topic too. The sequels always left out the shading to some degree and muted the colors or picked bland color palettes so they all end up looking flat and cheap.
I just finished the Clone Wars and started the Bad Batch. I'd love someone going over how the animation style evolved throughout the series. Season 1 to season 7 is a totally different show.

I'd highly recommend you all take a look at the "Animatrix" Movie, which I guess is technically more of a collection of animated shorts, each one animated by different animation studio, all based in The Matrix universe! The animation in each is distinct and just downright gorgeous, and the short "The 2nd Renaissance" is one of my favourite animated short stories of all time.
I just rewatched that this week and I totally agree. I really enjoyed the different stories with unique animation for each one. Yes sir, “The 2nd Renaissance” is amazing.
When things were at their very worst: 2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy. Scientists will say it was a global illusion. Beware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again. After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way. Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet - will seem to rise from the dead - will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one. One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist. Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent. "Many events, including ecological upheavals, wars, the schism in My Church on Earth, the dictatorships in each of your nations - bound as one, at its very core - will all take place at the same time." "Arab uprising will spark global unrest - Italy will trigger fall out" The Book of Truth
Redlines one of the biggest underrated gems in anime history.. they could have extended the movie to explain more of the characters in detail but madhouse would most likely go bankrupt.
IMO they didn't need to, Redline get just enough exposition done to not feel like its missing something, its just light and fun and one hell of a ride.
Not to mention that because of how underrated it is, the movie itself didn't even earn even half of the exact budget from producing it so it's a big and sad story for the earning that would have been made as the whole movie is made and HAND DRAWN for 7 YEARS and only made for about 8% back earning in the 100% of the budget to produce it ,truly a shame ngl(but it is a good ending for the author tho as that is a good stuff for his last anime to direct from his work)
I would absolutely love an entire episode dedicated to Redline. It's one of my favorite movies ever, and it deserves all of the praise and attention we can give it.
Crazy to think it was considered a flop too, only gained a somewhat beloved following after it's home video release. Personally, I think it's a serviceable film, VERY overrated and reliant on nostalgia, dwarfed by the behemoth blockbuster animations that came out in the late 90's. Definitely made for a younger audience, not sure what that dude is talking about.
When you guys look at redline, I would really enjoy a breakdown of the scene where Frisbee shows off the new engine of the trans am. The whole shot seems like a cheat, in the way Frisbee's hair and clothing moves due to the engine's violence. But it looks so. Damn. Good. Fave shot in the entire movie.
Fully agree, I've watched this movie more times than I can count and just got the DVD for my birthday. I can't think of a single frame that isn't gorgeous.
Sorry for the interruption, I know this has nothing to do with the video but its for you, to whoever is reading this and its urgent. One day millions of people will vanish, the rapture is near! Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior! And Live a Faithful Holy Life! He doesn’t want anyone to be left behind! time is short! Call me a crazy person if you want too, but what I’m saying is the truth and you don’t know and realize, that you need Jesus! You don’t know Him, because you don’t go to Him! He is your only Hope. Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, that He died for you and all of our sins, and He rose again 3 days later, then acknowledge that you are a sinner and that you need Him, repent and ask forgiveness, and believe and have faith that He is real, For He is the only way to Heaven! Now once you accept Him, you will receive the Holy Spirit, now while you are alive, read your bible, follow God, and live for Him. God Bless!
it’s worth mentioning that Richard Williams literally wrote the book on becoming an animator. the Animators Survival Kit is an indispensable guide for every single animator i know, including myself
Its insane that youre putting up this content basically for free. This is amazingly educational. You're really adding to cinematic literacy. The more the audience understands, the more we will be able to recognize what isn't good art, the more companies have to let artists make great stuff. (Although Disney can get away with everything with how big they've gotten..) EDIT: guys I know they are getting paid, they have sponsorships in every video and I'm not blind. But I can watch it without directly paying them, which is pretty significant for the quality of this information. Like, there's tons of videos with industry professionals explaining their field, but the majority of them just explain the basics. But with each of these episodes they really touch on great educational stuff. (not that this will 100% teach you how to animate, but it's still relevant to artists)
Their content is great, but it's not "for free". They have sponsors ad revenue etc. Membership to their site. No one could do all this for free... Yes we can watch it for free. All art is subjective though, not objective. Some one can find greatness in something you think is utterly shit.
There is absolutely no way that they would do this for free. Every video is sponsored and they run ads. If they didn't make money off of it they wouldn't do it, just listen to what Niko says about passion vs. profit at 10:14. Corridor Crew is in the business of making money.
@@dylanwatson8133 He's not saying they're not making money from it - he's saying it's free content, which it is. They create the content and earn money, we consume the content free of charge, or at least aside from the time spent wading through a few ads.
I'm not really into animation but whenever you have Eric as a guest, I'm constantly hooked by his love towards the animation and movies and by his knowledge. Thank you all, guys, for teaching me new stuff every episode.

You should absolutely react to "Destino" - the collaboration between SALVADOR DALI and WALT DISNEY. It actually had been left unfinished for a very long time (since they figured it was simply too complicated and expensive to animate) until they completed it many years later with help of some CGI (How fitting for the channel). It's a fantastic piece of surreal animation and it's easily available on TH-cam. It's nice that you talked about Richard Williams and The Thief and The Cobbler. I've been requesting it since forever. I completely disagree, however, with the criticism that Williams focusing on visuals rather than the story is somehow a negative. His entire passion and career were built on the idea of creating visuals that would blow you away just by themselves. The Thief and the Cobler was meant to be a cathedral of hand-drawn animation.
Just checked it out. The hand-drawn stuff is incredible, but the cgi stuff really brings it down. You can really tell this was made by 2 masters... and some dude. Like a scene from "The Room" inserted into "The Godfather" with no explanation. That's still better than never getting to see it at all.
The animated Hobbit movie is so underrated. I’m glad you guys will get more people to watch this wonderful film. It made a huge impact on me growing up.
Truly a marvelous film. It's a shame to me that the audio did not make the transition to modernization; I remember it having absolutely excellent sound design, but original audio was somehow bungled in the digitization. The only places you can still find it is on VHS copies.
You guys have been sleeping on Atlantis: The Lost Empire. A seemingly forgotten Disney animated movie from 2001. Two sequences really stand out to me, the first being the intro about the fall of Atlantis, and the epic Leviathan scene. Would love to see your thoughts on these fantastic scenes
I love that movie. As an adult I can go back and watch it and enjoy every minute of it. I think it was the characters that made it so unique to me. "We're all gonna die", lol.
I have to point out that some of the first season episodes are kinda janky in places. However the show was totally ground breaking in many ways so I can forgive that. The whole idea of doing the backgrounds in color on black paper really made everything seem different. Which it totally was!
im not really a fan of anime, and the art style. its just my opinion, its hard for me to get into a show or a movie let alone a anime movie. But i was recommended red line by a friend because i really enjoyed the speed racer live action movie, and i fell in love with it. def has become one of the few movies ill actually watch more than once.
The most pointlessly complicated and visually overwhelming movie I've ever seen, and I love it for that. The scene where the spider alien mechanic is throwing around his beer while berating the main characters is the best example of that.
I’m glad Wren mentioned Love Death and Robots because I’ve been waiting for you guys to do a whole episode about that show! The animation is so impressive
When you remarked about how some people still see animation as "for kids," it stirred me. Saying that is like saying watercolors are only for kids. Animation can be for anyone, and it can be as adult or childlike as you want it to be. I'd love to show one of the animation poo-pooers something like _Fritz the Cat_ or _Heavy Metal,_ then ask them if all animation is for kids.
Fritz the Cat at least (I've not watched Heavy Metal) is more for teens than for adults. I would show them When the Wind Blows or Plague Dogs instead (then you can also collect a bucket of their tears to throw at them)
@@phillewis2630 So so, I feel Watership Down and other movies like Felidae (or any hiperviolent anime that live by nothing else) will instead make most of the anticuated think "adult" animation is only exploitation or sensacionalist film making, and in the case of the rabbit movie, the violence will make them not pay that much attention over the more interesting themes (dictatorships and communities). To make them respect animation, we need to beat them at their own game, mostly through the kind of movies that have appeal to less niche groups, including more regular people (those searching for romantic fare could watch something like Ethel & Ernest or Chico & Rita, for example) as well as the ones searching for something more explicitely intellectual but with little to no violence allienating them (like the movies I mentioned in my previous comment plus something like Tragedy of Man, Angel's Egg or Patlabor 2). I think those will feel appropiately "mature" for them :)
Hi guys, I love your channel, just a couple of corrections regarding “The thief and the cobbler”. I worked on the film in 1990 and I personally know Simon, the guy who rotated the city. It took him over a year to animate that piece, but the animation was done on normal 15’ field paper. The enormous layout that you see on the floor was drawn by Roy Naisbitt for a camera truck-out from the kings lips the whole desert and was called “Mouth to mountain”. It is 4 by 2.5 meters in size and contains some 3000 individual buildings. It took about 16 months of Roy’s spare time to draw and after he died I inherited that drawing. (No idea where to put it, as I don’t have a wall big enough for it.) Richard Williams did animate on 15' field ‘scope’ paper, which is 30 inches wide and pretty hard to flip when you’re animating. As to Brad Bird and his storyboarding process, the clips you show are already rough animation, not the full frame count but also no longer storyboard or animatic. I saw the animatic for the Iron Giant, back at Warner Brothers and it was certainly more involved then the Toy Story boards you showed here. Brad made extensive use of After FX to layer, parallax shift and move drawings, but the stuff here is certainly already animated. Keep up the good work, Toodlepip F.S.
@@captaintoyota3171 The first time I've seen this movie was when it was free on Manga entertainment's channel, and I watched the hell out of it. When my local con was coming around, I made it my goal to buy a copy. I luckily bought it for Blu-Ray. I always recommend this movie to people. Not just for the animation, but for the world building itself. As many people review this movie, they bring up the strong point of characters. Even though they're supporting charcaters, they have an amount of weight to them that makes you want to support them. The movie brings up it's history in such a short amount of time, yet you understand it. It has so many great things to it, that it's only weakness(to me at least) was the ending. I've grown to get used to it, but there still some things that I want to know. The movie has so many side theories from fans. It's just that great to me
@@Lazydoodle while I do love redline with a passion, and it's my favorite film ever, I would say there are more flaws than the ending (which I think is just perfect). Pacing is an issue, visual clarity in roboworld is another issue, trava and dezuna are a storyline the movie simply doesn't need, also they get really close to making a statement on the sexualization of the female body in the media but ironically fall flat on their faces doing so. Don't get me wrong, it is indeed my favorite movie, and it's an animation masterpiece, but it isn't perfect.
I've been waiting for a cover of Redline It's 7 years of pure talent being out onto film and it's the most insane yet incredible piece of animation I've ever witnessed

The first Incredibles movie is still my favourite animated movie of all time. Like he said, it's about story and emotions. I'm also shocked how "old" it looks when I rewatched it later, especially because back then I though "oh my lord this looks so good", but it's the writing that always brings me back to this gem.
Would love to see an Anime Animator give some insight because I think Anime and Western all have a bunch of different focuses during production. I LOVE Western and 3D Animation works, but I feel like getting an animator who has worked on foreign productions can really bring a lot more insight on the details and choices that were made, rather than someone from a whole other industry speculating what they would've done. Absolutely love these videos, I think there's so much that we can enjoy from animation. Also the French are INCREDIBLE with their 2D animations. FANTASTIC stuff to be found there.
I mentioned this on a recent stuntmen react video and I'll repost it here: I'd love to see a video where you get and animator and a fight coordinator together and have them talk about how animated fight scenes are created, maybe looking at things like AtLA, RWBY, Cowboy Bebop, etc.
"That's the beauty of animation. It's anything you imagine. And at it's purest, it's being used to tell a story that you can't tell in any other medium." That needs to be said more.
Redline is my absolute favorite anime movie of all time! It's such an underrated movie that more people deserve to watch! It was worked on for almost eight years as Niko said, but it didn't bankrupt the studio, but it almost did.
Yeah it looks like something I'd have to watch. Though if I'm not interested in what red line is about, I can easily say that it has one of my favorite anime art styles
@@LoneHerald Even though the anime is about racing you don't have to be interested in racing at all to enjoy it. The anime holds up even for people that aren't fans of racing, I can assure you.
@@LoneHerald in short without spoiling anything... It's basically speed racers/whacky racers/death race and the fastnfurious movies all rolled into one movie.... And then set in space. Cus fuckit this is animé and they do whatever they want.
I love how seeing this group of people went from a small channel making wickedly unique videos to producing some of the best the internet has to offer.
I went to and graduated at Full Sail University, where my 2D animation teacher was not only one of the animators for the Iron Giant, but was also an animator for Shrek 2, among other things. My instructor told the class so many cool animation stories, I loved hearing about his work on the Iron Giant.
Love when Eric is on the show ad he seems to bring very specific things to talk about and so much background knowledge. Think it is better when the guests bring their own clips than just looking at random ones.
Excited to see Redline love! Saw it in 2012 and fell in love with it and have been recommending it to everyone who wants to watch an animated movie! Looking forward to the Redline episode :)
I watch redline every so often to see what an unrestrained artist can actually create. I love it. Wish more studios had the time and money to use their craft.
well even a simple Anime Called Date A Live had the studio bankrupt just to adapted 2 Volume of Light Novel to be a 12 episodes of a season 2 that was also the season 1 wasnt made by that studio
I consider Redline a bit of a tragedy, because it's a gorgeously animated movie with a highly distinct visual style and some absolutely jaw dropping moments that really show off the time investment. But everything aside from the visual aspect just... isn't very good. This gorgeous animation was just a colossal waste of time.
@@Biscotum I disagree. While the plot is relatively simple it works just fine. No glaring plot holes, good pacing and character development. Not everything has to be hugely elaborate or have a mind melting plot.
@@Ambar42 because there are dozens of other things that make Iroh. You aren’t like Aang just because you’re goofy and nice. It’s not a difficult concept. People are more than two minor traits
@@SnailHatan You act like Iroh is an actual person. He's a cartoon character and even with Avatar having given Iroh a "deep" background story he's very flat compared to actual human beings.
"There's a lot more to be said on 'Redline,' we'll do another episode where we go into it..." [puts down pitchfork and torches] Oh. Well, now I feel silly--guess I'll just keep watching each week. Thank you, carry on.
Come on, any self respecting Redline fan should understand the massive weaknesses the film had in pacing and dialogue. Story was so rushed its a shame. Edit: Well lets see how many fellow fans I trigger with this lol.
@@synthecysts That I do, but that doesnt change how rushed and unfinished the rest of it feels. It was the last time Japan ever gambled on an internationally released animation film that was not based on something with prior success. Its utterly beautiful and I love rewatching it every so often. But its a beautiful *failure*
I literally just watched Redline for the first time about a week ago. I was so impressed by how amazing it was. I'm so happy I finally watched it, but at the same time regretted not watching it earlier, as it was sitting on Prime Video for months, just begging to be watched.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit was such an impressive feat of creation. I remember seeing it really young and unlike a lot of other older movies, it was a complete trip to watch it again only a few years ago and see just how damn near perfect the interactions between cartoon and real actors are. love the show,, Keep it up!
I'm so glad you guys showed and talked about the Theif and the Cobbler. That 3d looking shot is just one of many in that film; it is absolutely insane! On the one hand 30 plus years is too much time for any company to take on. A story like theif and the cobbler wouldn't have made its money back. But even though a lot of the animation in the film is simply there for Willaims vision and doesn't really serve the purpose of the film's story I think it actually surves the purpose of the film. It's one of my favorite movies to watch because it is such a massive passion project. Its animation for the sake of the love and passion of animation. And perhaps the film didn't need to be that long to accomplish that but nonetheless, the peices of it that exist are a treasure. Ps. Would love it if you guys talked about Promare. I was completely blown away with its style and animation and I would like some insight on how they accomplished that.
This is super evident in the quality of a film imo. When there's a film I'm looking forward to, and you hear about numerous rewrites or director changes etc, it sets it up to fail.

I can't give a time stamp because it's been a while since I've watched the movie, but I remember my favorite scene being when they're in the garage standing outside the car and they start up the engine from the outside. It looks INSANE.
7:58 omfg . I can’t believe the amount of stress when it came to trying not to rip or stain any one of those papers when it came to moving on to the next drawing
@@darreng374 Being acquired and going bankrupt aren't the same thing. Usually one precedes the other, but it's still different. Semantic bs. lol I could very well be wrong about that, though. Idk. Madhouse's decline since the golden days has sucked to witness, but seeing Mappa shit out gold has been amazing. Clearly Maruyama is a god at his craft.
@@CoconutJewce It’s one of the last times an original idea, that isn’t based off of some pre existing material/manga (except for Trava: Fist Planet ofc), was animated. In my opinion that is what it made it so risky. I love redline with all my heart, but it was massive blockbuster flop in Japan, signaling one of the last times someone attempted to tackle such an immense “original” project. These days most original works/animations are created using the short movie genre.
I really wanna talk about Sonny Boy. That anime is awesome. The artstyle is simple (in the sense that there are no overexxagerated designs for the characters) and awesome.
@@Dokujamu If you mean it's the last time Madhouse did an anime original, that's not true. Sonny Boy is a currently-airing anime original. If you're talking about the industry in general, that's even less true. Look at Studio Trigger, Kyoto Animation, CoMixWave, etc... All have recently released anime without source material.
I’d love to see a big breakdown of Toy Story 1-4 and how the technology changed over the years. What kind of limitations did they have on the early ones compared to the latest. And how much easier did it get to animate?
When they mentioned combining 2d animation & rotoscoping, i always think about Don Bluth's films like Anastasia and Thumbelina bc even as a kid, I could tell the way the human characters moved was different than other animated movies back then. Would be cool to see a Don Bluth episode please please please! ♥️♥️🙏
Would love to see you guys react to "J'ai perdu mon corps / I Lost My Body", the first animated film to win an award at Cannes. It's a true masterpiece and a real labor of love for the creators
The first Incredibles is a masterpiece. Bird embraced the limitations, going for a Deco poster art look that is much cleaner than the other early Pixar. Story is top notch. You didn’t mention that the Iron Giant was CG, but with a custom filter that would add a certain amount of variability to the line art, so it looked hand drawn or traced. Also, have a look at Bird’s “The Spirit” concept trailer. Wish we could have seen that film!
@macross_56 Correct. I was referring to the character, not the film, as being CG--I see that I should have clarified. He mentioned this, but didn't mention that they wrote a program to make the line art for the CG objects appear hand-animated.
I love to see this level of passion for animation. Not only if it an amazing art form, it could deliver on big ticket action way before CG got the polish it does today
I recommend the anime ‘Violet Evergarden’, the lighting and colour in that anime are breathtaking! And the movement of her mechanical hands are just something else. It truly is stunning.
Me and my friends saw about 4 episodes of it at a party. I actually grew bored due to the unoriginal story (never got to the emotional parts which most likely would have saved it) and the boring designs. They all look like generic anime characters and her arms for the most part in those episodes are hidden. The backgrounds are amazing but it just didn't catch me in the first 4 episodes.
@Kaif Ali you absolutely can, though. If you're trying to sell me on an episodic story, but don't give me a hook, I'm not gonna stick around. 4 episodes in and still no hook to care is bad story pacing.
@@antonakesson that’s fine, to each there own. Like I said I enjoyed the way they use light, the fluid animation and I also liked the costuming. I got into the story and the character development of Violet but if it didn’t interest you than fair enough.
@Kaif Ali You very well can if the show failed to hook you in that time. If I grew bored then I am gonna judge the show for it since it made me not continue. If you mean I can't judge the overal story then fair enough but I wasn't. I was judging the story up to the end of ep 4 which had still not hooked me.
"Fantastic Planet" is an old, and beyond - trippy gem. Any of the Plympton (sp?) animated shorts. "Creature Comforts". And an OLD favourite of mine: "Twice Apon a Time". Keep em coming!
Just realized these guys haven't done any reactions to anything from the Evangelion franchise! Some analysis of the Angel fights in 1.1 and the art direction that gives us those 'epic scale' moments in the series would have been cool!
I’d love to see an episode dedicated to Evangelion honestly. It’d be really interesting to see them go from the original series to something like Thrice Upon A Time.
@@highdefinition450 Sure, but the visual effects of the later films is worthy of VFX reactions alone. The original has merits for sure, but vfx-wise I think it would be wiser to focus on the recent additions.
About how dated Toy Story and The Incredibles in a technical level, I feel like when I play PSX/N64 games compared to nowadays games. They may feel dated, but if they are well developed and fun, they are still worth your time.
i agree with the sentiment, but i have to disagree with the first incredibles feeling dated. that movie looks gorgeous to this day, and i would go as far to say that some of the stylistic choices in it were much better than in the sequel.
I've been commenting on their videos for the past few months hoping people would vote up so that they would notice it. Hence thumbs up here. Genndy Tartakovsky's work is excellent!
the evolution of Rooster Teeth's skills and how far they've come from some cheeky handmade animations of the Halo games to a full blown animation studio
Good idea to study the evolution from amateur game-engine hacking, through Poser animation tool, into a mixed professional production by the same team.
Hey everyone at CC, maybe look into another Robert Zemeckis movie, Beowulf, and maybe also check out Don Bluth's Titan AE. Also the original Final Fantasy Movie: The Spirits Within, with Alec Baldwin and Ming-Na Wen was in many ways ground breaking.
A Scanner Darkly is hands-down one of my favorite films and the rotoscoping style fits the tone and themes of the story perfectly. I'd love to see you guys give that movie a real go with a professional animator.
Did you guys see the CGI “Abbatars” this week when ABBA presented their new album and hologram show they’re gonna show in a very special venue which is under construction in London? The CGI is done by ILM! They look really real! Maybe comment on this and make a music CGI special with commenting on special and visual effects in music videos. Like the (still the best) morphs in Michael Jackson’s “Black or White”, Aha’s “Take on me”, George Michael’s “As”, etc. Love your shows. They are the best! Greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱.
I would love to see you guys get James Baxter on the show! He’s been in the industry forever, he was the main animator on Quasimodo and Rafiki, and also worked on a bunch of other Disney films.
I'm so happy seeing the love for the classic version of The Hobbit. I watched it and The Last Unicorn all the time as a kid, completely love the amount of kinda gnarly detail each character has. The texture makes them feel so much more real somehow.
I can't take the animated Smaug seriously. I don't mind that it's animated, but isn't he supposed to be a dragon, not like somebody just stretched a cat and gave him wings.
Redline actually didn't bankrupt madhouse but it was one of the reasons that it came close to and the 2007 financial crisis didn't help.madhouse is still around but they don't make shows on the same scale as before.a lot of their key staff left and joined or made other studios.
I’m totally that type of nerd to just start pointing out cgi, stunt and animation stuff I learned on this channel to every single one of my friends all the time. Thanks!!

This. We are in dire need of this episode
Yes pls
The best hand drawn Chinese cartoon around

Wait it's Korean tho right?
I've never seen Redline before now. I was crying with joy after the opening sequence for how energetic the action is, how good the soundtrack is, how rich and unique the animation style is.
One hell of a swan song for the studio that made it
@@SuLokify madhouse didnt go bankrupt from this movie but they are a shadow of their former selves, they made some of the most iconic animes of the 90s and early 2000s but haven't done much of note since. this is due to one of their core directors leaving though and taking a lot of talent with them to their new studio, not just their budgetary constraints.
@@jacklobb3510 In addition, that was actually one of Madhouse's cheaper projects. While other projects had 50+ people on them, Redline's core team was less than 20 people. Which likely contributed to the time over-run but kept the idea of what they wanted concise an reduced operating expenses. The movie largely flopped due to a non-existent advertising leading to it's release.
I never even heard of it until just now... ...Ok, I just came back from watching it. I'm sorry, but I absolutely hate this style of animation. I cannot stand it. No offense. lol
@@daemonthorn5888 well if it's not for you it's not for you. Nothing to apologize about.
Redline is a *masterpiece.* Absolutely insane animation - all by hand.
It’s not entirely by hand, but the bits that matter are.(they used computers to model some of the particle affects etc.)
Ofc they use hands, how are they able to animate without hands smh
Like someone else said its not ALL done by hand but I think like 60% of it was? I could be wrong but regardless its still an insane amount of hand drawn frames either way.
@@Pragabond it’s actually about 99% hand drawn the only thing that isn’t is the dust particles
@@Pragabond only some effects, all vehicle and characters are by hand
I suggest doing a whole episode on Gendy Tartakovsky. The man is a genius when it comes to animation. You can go from the cartoons for kids that he started on like Dexter's Laboratory, to Samurai Jack (which is beautifully and incredibly artistic) to gritty darker Primal.
Don't forget clone wars
Your also forgetting sym bionic titan
@@mysteriousmemethief Gendy Clone Wars > Filoni Clone Wars
Yes!!
@@christiancline1131 Gendy has better action but lesser characters with some exceptions like General Grievous and Count Dooku. Anakin is different but I wouldn't say either better or worse and Kenobi is almost the same. Ventress and Padme are worse though.
Redline is an absoloute masterpiece of animation, I've lost count on how many times I've rewatched it.
Redline is entertainment on steroids.
MACHINNNNNNNNE HEEEEAAAAAAAAD
believe it or not but it was also one of Madhouse's cheaper projects at the time which is why the production was allowed to drag on for 7 years. The entire dedicated team was less than 20 people.
it's definitely eye candy.
also it's all hand drawn, no CG work.
it also almost bankrupted the animation studio lmao.
@@GiordanDiodato It was totally worth almost bankrupting madhouse. There is literally almost no other animated film that comes near it.
I’m so glad Redline made it onto this show. A fantastic hidden gem imo
Is it really hidden? A lot of people I know have seen or at least heard of it.
@@Ghosteh36 it's definitely not mainstream
@@Ghosteh36 sadly no, most of my car mates hadn't heard of it but now they love jt
Stumbled upon Redline a few years ago and I've been showing it to anyone I can trap inside my house.
cant believe they actually reacted to it, I threw a comment on the last one recomending it but didnt really think theyd do it.
I loved the hell out of Redline.
The anime film I go to from time to time to remind myself what 'over-the-top amazingly animated' means. Not to mention that the film is really just the definition of cool.
@@SenseofNoneYT The textbook definition of "there is no limit on the budget"
Redline's a work of art. Every single frame of it.
Ran across it several years ago. It blew my mind
Proud to say it's part of my collection. One of the most gorgeously animated movies I've ever seen.
Any Red Blooded male does
The animation for The Iron Giant still holds up after 20+ years, it's incredible.
Because it's the perfect movie, obviously
no it does not, it looks like dog shit compared to todays animation style.
@@projectmortal42 Your taste is dog
@@projectmortal42 Quality bait.
Sooooo...per...maaaan
God, redline is such a masterpiece, I'm really stoked for the episode covering it more in detail!
I'd like to see the lads look at Batman: The Animated Series. The fact it was done on black paper is fascinating to me. I'd love to see them dig into it and some of the tricks the BTAS team did.
Yes, this!
On black paper? That's amazing! Almost seems obvious now, what with the dark color palette, but I didn't think about that.
my god could you imagine the sheer amount of ink they'd need if they had stuck with white paper?
@@fakename287 The dark scenes would have had far less impact if they were manually darkening them, thats for sure

“I’ve never seen the original Incredibles just the Incredibles 2” truly a tragic statement
My jaw dropped when he said that. The incredibles is a perfect movie.
the second one sucked
That really is a tragic statement.
Tf
“I’ve never seen the original Avatar just the Legend of Korra” truly more of a tragic statement
Here's a thought: compare the gold and silver age Disney classics to their various lower production sequels/tv shows. I know Cinderella, Aladdin, Little Mermaid, 101 Dalmatians, Lion King and Hercules are ones that got them and I'm sure there are others. It would be interesting to see where the sequels cut corners that make them look just a bit off compared to the originals.
Or the difference between the main studio, what is now Walt Disney Animation Studios, and the other animation studios that developed so many of those sub-par, money-grab sequels.
this is an idea to get behind
Most of those are from the Disney Renaissance, not the Golden or Silver Age.
@@tzeege I’m sure he meant that, sometimes I accidentally call the renaissance era the golden era. I would love to see them talk about that topic too. The sequels always left out the shading to some degree and muted the colors or picked bland color palettes so they all end up looking flat and cheap.
Great idea, I'd love that
I just finished the Clone Wars and started the Bad Batch. I'd love someone going over how the animation style evolved throughout the series. Season 1 to season 7 is a totally different show.

The only thing I see in these comments are praise. Sub or dub?
@@nelzelpher7158 in this case dubed is reeaally good , even after only watching subed animes either way the movie is amazing
@@nelzelpher7158 Dubbed is much better for this movie.
Redline is one of the greatest animated movies I’ve ever seen. It’s insane eye candy treatment.
The Japanese team behind that Hobbit movie also became Studio Ghibli! That’s why it has that Japanese key-frame heavy restrained style.
The Iron Giant will always be cinematic gold
It’s a perfect film
“Superman…”
@@dolko7175 Hell nah
Indeed
That movie should have ended with "Supermaaaaaan"
I'd highly recommend you all take a look at the "Animatrix" Movie, which I guess is technically more of a collection of animated shorts, each one animated by different animation studio, all based in The Matrix universe!
The animation in each is distinct and just downright gorgeous, and the short "The 2nd Renaissance" is one of my favourite animated short stories of all time.
I just rewatched that this week and I totally agree. I really enjoyed the different stories with unique animation for each one. Yes sir, “The 2nd Renaissance” is amazing.
Would be a great precursor to the Matrix 4 release date.
Huh,I thought it was a spinoff to how the omnitrix in benten was originally made
Totally! Each segment is pretty radically different in style, etc.
YESSSSSSSS

After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.

The Book of Truth
Redlines one of the biggest underrated gems in anime history.. they could have extended the movie to explain more of the characters in detail but madhouse would most likely go bankrupt.
theres a prequel short called trava and the fist planet
IMO they didn't need to, Redline get just enough exposition done to not feel like its missing something, its just light and fun and one hell of a ride.
Not to mention that because of how underrated it is, the movie itself didn't even earn even half of the exact budget from producing it so it's a big and sad story for the earning that would have been made as the whole movie is made and HAND DRAWN for 7 YEARS and only made for about 8% back earning in the 100% of the budget to produce it ,truly a shame ngl(but it is a good ending for the author tho as that is a good stuff for his last anime to direct from his work)
Well mad house did go bankrupt thats the thing
"I thought Clint didn't work here anymore." Best burn ever.
And a well deserved one, as well! 😆😆 Never seen "The Incredibles"?!!! I cannot understand how that is even possible! 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
too soon man just too soon
14:05
A double burn to both Clint and Nico lol
What happened to Clint?
I would absolutely love an entire episode dedicated to Redline. It's one of my favorite movies ever, and it deserves all of the praise and attention we can give it.
Erik just seems like such a nice bloke. I love his insights, the banter he gets from you guys and… I just love when he is on the show!
I’ve met people who have never even heard of the Iron Giant... I just can’t even describe how sad that makes me. What an absolutely phenomenal film
Crazy to think it was considered a flop too, only gained a somewhat beloved following after it's home video release. Personally, I think it's a serviceable film, VERY overrated and reliant on nostalgia, dwarfed by the behemoth blockbuster animations that came out in the late 90's. Definitely made for a younger audience, not sure what that dude is talking about.
When you guys look at redline, I would really enjoy a breakdown of the scene where Frisbee shows off the new engine of the trans am.
The whole shot seems like a cheat, in the way Frisbee's hair and clothing moves due to the engine's violence.
But it looks so. Damn. Good. Fave shot in the entire movie.
Fully agree, I've watched this movie more times than I can count and just got the DVD for my birthday. I can't think of a single frame that isn't gorgeous.
It's a shame, redline is such a crowning achievement for the medium too
Madhouse didn't go away because of it from what I can tell. I am sure they took a hit through.
AFAIK the animation studio Madhouse is still doing great and they are known as a household name, heck, they did One Punch Man first season
@@_Darkaeluz Won PAAAAAAANCH!
Sorry for the interruption, I know this has nothing to do with the video but its for you, to whoever is reading this and its urgent.
One day millions of people will vanish, the rapture is near! Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior! And Live a Faithful Holy Life! He doesn’t want anyone to be left behind! time is short!
Call me a crazy person if you want too, but what I’m saying is the truth and you don’t know and realize, that you need Jesus! You don’t know Him, because you don’t go to Him! He is your only Hope.
Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, that He died for you and all of our sins, and He rose again 3 days later, then acknowledge that you are a sinner and that you need Him, repent and ask forgiveness, and believe and have faith that He is real, For He is the only way to Heaven!
Now once you accept Him, you will receive the Holy Spirit, now while you are alive, read your bible, follow God, and live for Him. God Bless!
@@CobiVonSchweetz Yep, you’re a crazy person. Good luck getting out of the cult!
Redline is definitely an amazing piece of art. So much detail, and such a cool stylistic choice. I’d love to see more breakdown on it.
I totally agree with that!
I've watched it several times by now
Considering its development took seven years and used 100,000 hand-made drawings, this is an understatement.
iron giant is a HUGE classic to me, the mixture of character art, cgi, and the beautiful aesthetic will always amaze me.
"No following."
it’s worth mentioning that Richard Williams literally wrote the book on becoming an animator. the Animators Survival Kit is an indispensable guide for every single animator i know, including myself
If anyone's looking into animation, whether it's for school or self-starting, this book helps. It was one of the required texts when I started.
Richard willams really helped in my animation career too definitely one of the best animators bless his soul
@@IncandescentWriter Same, one of my teachers was just like 'go read the book' whenever we weren't sure about something lmao
It was essential reading in my animation studies.
That book is practically the holy bible for animation
I'm so stoked for the Redline episode. Would love to hear what y'all have to say about it.
Its insane that youre putting up this content basically for free. This is amazingly educational. You're really adding to cinematic literacy. The more the audience understands, the more we will be able to recognize what isn't good art, the more companies have to let artists make great stuff. (Although Disney can get away with everything with how big they've gotten..)
EDIT: guys I know they are getting paid, they have sponsorships in every video and I'm not blind. But I can watch it without directly paying them, which is pretty significant for the quality of this information. Like, there's tons of videos with industry professionals explaining their field, but the majority of them just explain the basics. But with each of these episodes they really touch on great educational stuff. (not that this will 100% teach you how to animate, but it's still relevant to artists)
100%
100%
Their content is great, but it's not "for free". They have sponsors ad revenue etc. Membership to their site. No one could do all this for free... Yes we can watch it for free.
All art is subjective though, not objective. Some one can find greatness in something you think is utterly shit.
There is absolutely no way that they would do this for free. Every video is sponsored and they run ads. If they didn't make money off of it they wouldn't do it, just listen to what Niko says about passion vs. profit at 10:14. Corridor Crew is in the business of making money.
@@dylanwatson8133 He's not saying they're not making money from it - he's saying it's free content, which it is. They create the content and earn money, we consume the content free of charge, or at least aside from the time spent wading through a few ads.
Redline is a timeless masterpiece of animation
Niko not seeing the first Incredibles is probably his biggest sin. Pretty much everything about that movie is a 10/10.
I'm not really into animation but whenever you have Eric as a guest, I'm constantly hooked by his love towards the animation and movies and by his knowledge. Thank you all, guys, for teaching me new stuff every episode.

You should absolutely react to "Destino" - the collaboration between SALVADOR DALI and WALT DISNEY. It actually had been left unfinished for a very long time (since they figured it was simply too complicated and expensive to animate) until they completed it many years later with help of some CGI (How fitting for the channel). It's a fantastic piece of surreal animation and it's easily available on TH-cam.
It's nice that you talked about Richard Williams and The Thief and The Cobbler. I've been requesting it since forever.
I completely disagree, however, with the criticism that Williams focusing on visuals rather than the story is somehow a negative. His entire passion and career were built on the idea of creating visuals that would blow you away just by themselves. The Thief and the Cobler was meant to be a cathedral of hand-drawn animation.
Wow! Thank you so much for introducing me to that absolute gem of a video. Glad I followed through and went down the rabbit hole!
Just checked it out. The hand-drawn stuff is incredible, but the cgi stuff really brings it down. You can really tell this was made by 2 masters... and some dude. Like a scene from "The Room" inserted into "The Godfather" with no explanation. That's still better than never getting to see it at all.
@@wavion2 Hey dont insult my dude like that
Quite recently as in nearly 20 years ago?
@@highdefinition450 Years pass fast. I'll edit the original comment so it makes more sense.
The animated Hobbit movie is so underrated. I’m glad you guys will get more people to watch this wonderful film. It made a huge impact on me growing up.
Truly a marvelous film. It's a shame to me that the audio did not make the transition to modernization; I remember it having absolutely excellent sound design, but original audio was somehow bungled in the digitization. The only places you can still find it is on VHS copies.
You guys have been sleeping on Atlantis: The Lost Empire. A seemingly forgotten Disney animated movie from 2001. Two sequences really stand out to me, the first being the intro about the fall of Atlantis, and the epic Leviathan scene. Would love to see your thoughts on these fantastic scenes
But I myself find the story kind of boring
(Disclaimer that this is my opinion before 9 billion replies explode)
I love that movie. As an adult I can go back and watch it and enjoy every minute of it. I think it was the characters that made it so unique to me. "We're all gonna die", lol.
@@cinnamonrollypoly "Hey look, I made a bridge! It took me only..10 seconds. 11, tops."
dont forget treasure planet
@@Dead_Hitoriooooh, yes. Definitely an underrated masterpiece. I really liked Brother Bear, too.
Batman the Animated Series from the early 90's, especially the intro sequence is incredible. The shot of the batmobile taking off knocks me back.
Yes. THIS. The animation, VO style, the stories. This show was groundbreaking.
I have to point out that some of the first season episodes are kinda janky in places. However the show was totally ground breaking in many ways so I can forgive that. The whole idea of doing the backgrounds in color on black paper really made everything seem different. Which it totally was!
Redline is absolutely incredible. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed an anime feature film more in my life.
My favorite film
Agreed akira is a close second tho
im not really a fan of anime, and the art style. its just my opinion, its hard for me to get into a show or a movie let alone a anime movie. But i was recommended red line by a friend because i really enjoyed the speed racer live action movie, and i fell in love with it. def has become one of the few movies ill actually watch more than once.
I just about flipped when I saw the Redline shot in the thumbnail.
The most pointlessly complicated and visually overwhelming movie I've ever seen, and I love it for that. The scene where the spider alien mechanic is throwing around his beer while berating the main characters is the best example of that.
Finally the crew picked up on the greatness that is redline. Maybe some more people will now be able to witness this visual marvel.
I’m glad Wren mentioned Love Death and Robots because I’ve been waiting for you guys to do a whole episode about that show! The animation is so impressive
He mentioned it aaaaages ago I don’t get why they haven’t done atleast one video on it
The wait for Redline was insane but when it dropped oh man it was everything we wanted : D
One of my favorite visual movies that I just can't stop rewatching. Koite is a god of slow mo
When you remarked about how some people still see animation as "for kids," it stirred me. Saying that is like saying watercolors are only for kids. Animation can be for anyone, and it can be as adult or childlike as you want it to be. I'd love to show one of the animation poo-pooers something like _Fritz the Cat_ or _Heavy Metal,_ then ask them if all animation is for kids.
Fritz the Cat at least (I've not watched Heavy Metal) is more for teens than for adults. I would show them When the Wind Blows or Plague Dogs instead (then you can also collect a bucket of their tears to throw at them)
Animation is a medium, not a genre!
Same comment for Anime.
Show them "Corpse Party" and then ask them again, if animations are for kids.
@@thewindthatblows Watership Down as well
@@phillewis2630 So so, I feel Watership Down and other movies like Felidae (or any hiperviolent anime that live by nothing else) will instead make most of the anticuated think "adult" animation is only exploitation or sensacionalist film making, and in the case of the rabbit movie, the violence will make them not pay that much attention over the more interesting themes (dictatorships and communities).
To make them respect animation, we need to beat them at their own game, mostly through the kind of movies that have appeal to less niche groups, including more regular people (those searching for romantic fare could watch something like Ethel & Ernest or Chico & Rita, for example) as well as the ones searching for something more explicitely intellectual but with little to no violence allienating them (like the movies I mentioned in my previous comment plus something like Tragedy of Man, Angel's Egg or Patlabor 2).
I think those will feel appropiately "mature" for them :)
Hi guys, I love your channel, just a couple of corrections regarding “The thief and the cobbler”. I worked on the film in 1990 and I personally know Simon, the guy who rotated the city. It took him over a year to animate that piece, but the animation was done on normal 15’ field paper. The enormous layout that you see on the floor was drawn by Roy Naisbitt for a camera truck-out from the kings lips the whole desert and was called “Mouth to mountain”. It is 4 by 2.5 meters in size and contains some 3000 individual buildings. It took about 16 months of Roy’s spare time to draw and after he died I inherited that drawing. (No idea where to put it, as I don’t have a wall big enough for it.) Richard Williams did animate on 15' field ‘scope’ paper, which is 30 inches wide and pretty hard to flip when you’re animating.
As to Brad Bird and his storyboarding process, the clips you show are already rough animation, not the full frame count but also no longer storyboard or animatic. I saw the animatic for the Iron Giant, back at Warner Brothers and it was certainly more involved then the Toy Story boards you showed here. Brad made extensive use of After FX to layer, parallax shift and move drawings, but the stuff here is certainly already animated.
Keep up the good work,
Toodlepip
F.S.
I'm so happy Redline was finally covered, the opening race scene is so amazing

Yeah it blows ppl minds when i show it too them. Amazing

The first time I've seen this movie was when it was free on Manga entertainment's channel, and I watched the hell out of it. When my local con was coming around, I made it my goal to buy a copy. I luckily bought it for Blu-Ray.
I always recommend this movie to people. Not just for the animation, but for the world building itself. As many people review this movie, they bring up the strong point of characters. Even though they're supporting charcaters, they have an amount of weight to them that makes you want to support them. The movie brings up it's history in such a short amount of time, yet you understand it. It has so many great things to it, that it's only weakness(to me at least) was the ending. I've grown to get used to it, but there still some things that I want to know. The movie has so many side theories from fans. It's just that great to me
no it's Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust
Madhouse is God tier
@@Lazydoodle while I do love redline with a passion, and it's my favorite film ever, I would say there are more flaws than the ending (which I think is just perfect).
Pacing is an issue, visual clarity in roboworld is another issue, trava and dezuna are a storyline the movie simply doesn't need, also they get really close to making a statement on the sexualization of the female body in the media but ironically fall flat on their faces doing so.
Don't get me wrong, it is indeed my favorite movie, and it's an animation masterpiece, but it isn't perfect.
I've been waiting for a cover of Redline
It's 7 years of pure talent being out onto film and it's the most insane yet incredible piece of animation I've ever witnessed

The first Incredibles movie is still my favourite animated movie of all time. Like he said, it's about story and emotions. I'm also shocked how "old" it looks when I rewatched it later, especially because back then I though "oh my lord this looks so good", but it's the writing that always brings me back to this gem.

Would love to see an Anime Animator give some insight because I think Anime and Western all have a bunch of different focuses during production. I LOVE Western and 3D Animation works, but I feel like getting an animator who has worked on foreign productions can really bring a lot more insight on the details and choices that were made, rather than someone from a whole other industry speculating what they would've done.
Absolutely love these videos, I think there's so much that we can enjoy from animation.
Also the French are INCREDIBLE with their 2D animations. FANTASTIC stuff to be found there.
Yo TFP!
Anyone from MadHouse or Ufotable would do since those two Animation Studios Made some of the most Beautiful Fight Animations
True an actual animator who has worked in the anime industry even as a freelancer would be interesting to watch.
its not that different
I don't think they could get a Japanese creator on the show rn but maybe they could talk to someone from toonami NA?
I mentioned this on a recent stuntmen react video and I'll repost it here: I'd love to see a video where you get and animator and a fight coordinator together and have them talk about how animated fight scenes are created, maybe looking at things like AtLA, RWBY, Cowboy Bebop, etc.
This would be awesome, I'd love to see this!
*Ninja Scroll*
YES!
True that would be a good combination to watch
"That's the beauty of animation. It's anything you imagine. And at it's purest, it's being used to tell a story that you can't tell in any other medium."
That needs to be said more.
Redline is my absolute favorite anime movie of all time! It's such an underrated movie that more people deserve to watch!
It was worked on for almost eight years as Niko said, but it didn't bankrupt the studio, but it almost did.
Never heard of it 😰😰
and as for why they did it? Well... they aren't called MADhouse without reason.
Yeah it looks like something I'd have to watch. Though if I'm not interested in what red line is about, I can easily say that it has one of my favorite anime art styles
@@LoneHerald Even though the anime is about racing you don't have to be interested in racing at all to enjoy it. The anime holds up even for people that aren't fans of racing, I can assure you.
@@LoneHerald in short without spoiling anything... It's basically speed racers/whacky racers/death race and the fastnfurious movies all rolled into one movie.... And then set in space. Cus fuckit this is animé and they do whatever they want.

So glad that you guys covered Redline, probably one of my most favorite animated works of all time.
I went to and graduated at Full Sail University, where my 2D animation teacher was not only one of the animators for the Iron Giant, but was also an animator for Shrek 2, among other things. My instructor told the class so many cool animation stories, I loved hearing about his work on the Iron Giant.
Eric seems like such a chill dude I love these episodes because you really see his genuine passion for animation. So wholesome
I’m so glad y’all talked about Thief and the Cobbler!
Love when Eric is on the show ad he seems to bring very specific things to talk about and so much background knowledge.
Think it is better when the guests bring their own clips than just looking at random ones.
Excited to see Redline love! Saw it in 2012 and fell in love with it and have been recommending it to everyone who wants to watch an animated movie! Looking forward to the Redline episode :)
I watch redline every so often to see what an unrestrained artist can actually create. I love it. Wish more studios had the time and money to use their craft.
well even a simple Anime Called Date A Live had the studio bankrupt just to adapted 2 Volume of Light Novel to be a 12 episodes of a season 2 that was also the season 1 wasnt made by that studio
You should check out jujutsu kaisen. Every fight scene feels like it has an infinite budget and time limit. One of the best animated shows ever imo
I consider Redline a bit of a tragedy, because it's a gorgeously animated movie with a highly distinct visual style and some absolutely jaw dropping moments that really show off the time investment.
But everything aside from the visual aspect just... isn't very good. This gorgeous animation was just a colossal waste of time.
How does one find it?
@@Biscotum I disagree. While the plot is relatively simple it works just fine. No glaring plot holes, good pacing and character development. Not everything has to be hugely elaborate or have a mind melting plot.
Niko is like a hipster uncle iroh, so humble and wise and always growing his brain! I love this channel!
Being humble and wise doesn’t make him like Iroh.
@@SnailHatan Why not? He's the definition of humble and wise... also nice and funny, of course.
Iroh didn't see the incredibles either
@@Ambar42 because there are dozens of other things that make Iroh. You aren’t like Aang just because you’re goofy and nice. It’s not a difficult concept. People are more than two minor traits
@@SnailHatan You act like Iroh is an actual person. He's a cartoon character and even with Avatar having given Iroh a "deep" background story he's very flat compared to actual human beings.
"There's a lot more to be said on 'Redline,' we'll do another episode where we go into it..."
[puts down pitchfork and torches] Oh. Well, now I feel silly--guess I'll just keep watching each week.
Thank you, carry on.
Come on, any self respecting Redline fan should understand the massive weaknesses the film had in pacing and dialogue. Story was so rushed its a shame.
Edit: Well lets see how many fellow fans I trigger with this lol.
@@scout360pyroz redline is not a movie you watch for plot though lol. fans love it because of the stunning visuals
@@scout360pyroz you know…you’re right but dammit…the animation, the premise and the character designs are so good!
@@synthecysts That I do, but that doesnt change how rushed and unfinished the rest of it feels.
It was the last time Japan ever gambled on an internationally released animation film that was not based on something with prior success.
Its utterly beautiful and I love rewatching it every so often.
But its a beautiful *failure*
@@SaltyDogFood dont forget the music. the music is a hell of a rush too.
Seeing "Redline" was like a breath of fresh air , the best animation i seen in a long long time. (When it came out of course)
It's still one of the best
It's still better than anything I can think of
Still is the best animation ever!
I literally just watched Redline for the first time about a week ago.
I was so impressed by how amazing it was.
I'm so happy I finally watched it, but at the same time regretted not watching it earlier, as it was sitting on Prime Video for months, just begging to be watched.
it is definitely cool when there is a stunning animation that has not yet been watching
Who Framed Roger Rabbit was such an impressive feat of creation. I remember seeing it really young and unlike a lot of other older movies, it was a complete trip to watch it again only a few years ago and see just how damn near perfect the interactions between cartoon and real actors are. love the show,, Keep it up!
Redline did not in fact bankrupt the studio (Madhouse), it is still producing anime today, the latest one being Sonny Boy
I'm so glad you guys showed and talked about the Theif and the Cobbler. That 3d looking shot is just one of many in that film; it is absolutely insane! On the one hand 30 plus years is too much time for any company to take on. A story like theif and the cobbler wouldn't have made its money back. But even though a lot of the animation in the film is simply there for Willaims vision and doesn't really serve the purpose of the film's story I think it actually surves the purpose of the film. It's one of my favorite movies to watch because it is such a massive passion project. Its animation for the sake of the love and passion of animation. And perhaps the film didn't need to be that long to accomplish that but nonetheless, the peices of it that exist are a treasure.
Ps. Would love it if you guys talked about Promare. I was completely blown away with its style and animation and I would like some insight on how they accomplished that.
"The process is easier when the vision is clear" - Wren dropping life wisdom.
A very good statement that would fix soooooo many issues in the world haha!
but the process of getting a clear vision is very very hard.
This is super evident in the quality of a film imo. When there's a film I'm looking forward to, and you hear about numerous rewrites or director changes etc, it sets it up to fail.

Finally Redline, that film is the most gorgeous piece of media ever released
Makoto Shinkai has entered the chat...
I can't give a time stamp because it's been a while since I've watched the movie, but I remember my favorite scene being when they're in the garage standing outside the car and they start up the engine from the outside. It looks INSANE.
The intro was just good times with scar entering superfast buildmode
That was my first thought too :D
Yes
Yes!
😂😂😂
7:58 omfg . I can’t believe the amount of stress when it came to trying not to rip or stain any one of those papers when it came to moving on to the next drawing
Given that Madhouse is still making anime today (currently airing the mindfuck that is Sonny Boy), I don't think Redline bankrupted them. lol
It did, they were just bought out by NTV and lost Masao Maruiyama as the boss
@@darreng374 Being acquired and going bankrupt aren't the same thing. Usually one precedes the other, but it's still different. Semantic bs. lol I could very well be wrong about that, though. Idk.
Madhouse's decline since the golden days has sucked to witness, but seeing Mappa shit out gold has been amazing. Clearly Maruyama is a god at his craft.
@@CoconutJewce It’s one of the last times an original idea, that isn’t based off of some pre existing material/manga (except for Trava: Fist Planet ofc), was animated. In my opinion that is what it made it so risky. I love redline with all my heart, but it was massive blockbuster flop in Japan, signaling one of the last times someone attempted to tackle such an immense “original” project. These days most original works/animations are created using the short movie genre.
I really wanna talk about Sonny Boy. That anime is awesome. The artstyle is simple (in the sense that there are no overexxagerated designs for the characters) and awesome.
@@Dokujamu If you mean it's the last time Madhouse did an anime original, that's not true. Sonny Boy is a currently-airing anime original.
If you're talking about the industry in general, that's even less true. Look at Studio Trigger, Kyoto Animation, CoMixWave, etc... All have recently released anime without source material.
I’d love to see a big breakdown of Toy Story 1-4 and how the technology changed over the years. What kind of limitations did they have on the early ones compared to the latest. And how much easier did it get to animate?
Not easier, It just got a 1000 times more complex but they have 1000 times more computing and men power.
When they mentioned combining 2d animation & rotoscoping, i always think about Don Bluth's films like Anastasia and Thumbelina bc even as a kid, I could tell the way the human characters moved was different than other animated movies back then. Would be cool to see a Don Bluth episode please please please! ♥️♥️🙏
Yes! These people need to react to Anastatia! And possibly some older dreamworks movies while they are at it!
Would love to see you guys react to "J'ai perdu mon corps / I Lost My Body", the first animated film to win an award at Cannes. It's a true masterpiece and a real labor of love for the creators
Every single time I watch The Iron Giant...
I'm not crying. You're crying.
We're all crying
Why aren't you crying you coward
Oh! You must have the extended cut like I do. The one with the onion fairies.
"SUUUUPERRR-MAAAN!"😥😥😭😭
That scene always gets me!
"You stay. I go." 😥😥😢😢
The first Incredibles is a masterpiece. Bird embraced the limitations, going for a Deco poster art look that is much cleaner than the other early Pixar. Story is top notch.
You didn’t mention that the Iron Giant was CG, but with a custom filter that would add a certain amount of variability to the line art, so it looked hand drawn or traced.
Also, have a look at Bird’s “The Spirit” concept trailer. Wish we could have seen that film!
@macross_56 Correct. I was referring to the character, not the film, as being CG--I see that I should have clarified.
He mentioned this, but didn't mention that they wrote a program to make the line art for the CG objects appear hand-animated.
I recently got recommended by TH-cam redline - frist yellowstone race and i gotta say, that 13 minutes were breathtaking
I love to see this level of passion for animation.
Not only if it an amazing art form, it could deliver on big ticket action way before CG got the polish it does today
I recommend the anime ‘Violet Evergarden’, the lighting and colour in that anime are breathtaking! And the movement of her mechanical hands are just something else. It truly is stunning.
Me and my friends saw about 4 episodes of it at a party. I actually grew bored due to the unoriginal story (never got to the emotional parts which most likely would have saved it) and the boring designs. They all look like generic anime characters and her arms for the most part in those episodes are hidden. The backgrounds are amazing but it just didn't catch me in the first 4 episodes.
@Kaif Ali you absolutely can, though. If you're trying to sell me on an episodic story, but don't give me a hook, I'm not gonna stick around. 4 episodes in and still no hook to care is bad story pacing.
@@antonakesson that’s fine, to each there own. Like I said I enjoyed the way they use light, the fluid animation and I also liked the costuming. I got into the story and the character development of Violet but if it didn’t interest you than fair enough.
@Kaif Ali You very well can if the show failed to hook you in that time. If I grew bored then I am gonna judge the show for it since it made me not continue. If you mean I can't judge the overal story then fair enough but I wasn't. I was judging the story up to the end of ep 4 which had still not hooked me.
"Fantastic Planet" is an old, and beyond - trippy gem. Any of the Plympton (sp?) animated shorts. "Creature Comforts". And an OLD favourite of mine: "Twice Apon a Time". Keep em coming!
Just realized these guys haven't done any reactions to anything from the Evangelion franchise! Some analysis of the Angel fights in 1.1 and the art direction that gives us those 'epic scale' moments in the series would have been cool!
I’d love to see an episode dedicated to Evangelion honestly. It’d be really interesting to see them go from the original series to something like Thrice Upon A Time.
The original's ok
@@highdefinition450 Sure, but the visual effects of the later films is worthy of VFX reactions alone. The original has merits for sure, but vfx-wise I think it would be wiser to focus on the recent additions.
Another excellent episode guys!
About how dated Toy Story and The Incredibles in a technical level, I feel like when I play PSX/N64 games compared to nowadays games. They may feel dated, but if they are well developed and fun, they are still worth your time.
i agree with the sentiment, but i have to disagree with the first incredibles feeling dated. that movie looks gorgeous to this day, and i would go as far to say that some of the stylistic choices in it were much better than in the sequel.
I still play Quake over the recent Call of Duty, which is an absolutely bloated game that took way to much space of my xbox.
I’d love to see you guys have a look at Watership Down, especially the intro animation!
This film always scared me as a kid 😂
Same for Plague Dogs
I will die on this hill, please do a deep dive or talk about Genndy Tartakovsky's PRIMAL, its amazing!
Genndy Tartakovsky & Ralph Bakshi!!!!
I've been commenting on their videos for the past few months hoping people would vote up so that they would notice it. Hence thumbs up here.
Genndy Tartakovsky's work is excellent!
Primal and the original clone wars series.
Absolutely!
Or Tartakovsky in general, (Samurai Jack and his Clone Wars as well as Primal)
Love Eric, he's got such a great, chill energy. Have you looked at Treasure Planet yet? Musker & Clements are interesting in general.
the evolution of Rooster Teeth's skills and how far they've come from some cheeky handmade animations of the Halo games to a full blown animation studio
I liked the Machinima stuff better
Good idea to study the evolution from amateur game-engine hacking, through Poser animation tool, into a mixed professional production by the same team.
If only they had competent writers.
Hey everyone at CC, maybe look into another Robert Zemeckis movie, Beowulf, and maybe also check out Don Bluth's Titan AE. Also the original Final Fantasy Movie: The Spirits Within, with Alec Baldwin and Ming-Na Wen was in many ways ground breaking.
“I thought clint didn’t work here anymore” haha got him!
Did he leave?
@@fightwithonefilms yeah
@@carpetsellerman4177 what? Why not?
@@xMANSPID3Rx he just wanted to do his own thing
@@lag00n54 oh fair enough. So no bad blood or anything?
A Scanner Darkly is hands-down one of my favorite films and the rotoscoping style fits the tone and themes of the story perfectly. I'd love to see you guys give that movie a real go with a professional animator.
Did you guys see the CGI “Abbatars” this week when ABBA presented their new album and hologram show they’re gonna show in a very special venue which is under construction in London?
The CGI is done by ILM!
They look really real! Maybe comment on this and make a music CGI special with commenting on special and visual effects in music videos. Like the (still the best) morphs in Michael Jackson’s “Black or White”, Aha’s “Take on me”, George Michael’s “As”, etc.
Love your shows. They are the best! Greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱.
very good idea !!
that would be a very good episode and be very different
They dont react to music stuff because they will get attacked by music producers.
@@mf-- just had look at the CGI online it almost looks real from a distance but not 100 precent, still interesting.
I would love to see you guys get James Baxter on the show! He’s been in the industry forever, he was the main animator on Quasimodo and Rafiki, and also worked on a bunch of other Disney films.
YOOOO REDLINNNNNE
Redline is the only film I can rewatch a million times, currently at 900...
Redline, the animation, the soundtrack are just next level. Made the right choice buying the film and giving it a watch
I'm so happy seeing the love for the classic version of The Hobbit. I watched it and The Last Unicorn all the time as a kid, completely love the amount of kinda gnarly detail each character has. The texture makes them feel so much more real somehow.
I can't take the animated Smaug seriously. I don't mind that it's animated, but isn't he supposed to be a dragon, not like somebody just stretched a cat and gave him wings.
Redline actually didn't bankrupt madhouse but it was one of the reasons that it came close to and the 2007 financial crisis didn't help.madhouse is still around but they don't make shows on the same scale as before.a lot of their key staff left and joined or made other studios.
SO GLAD you guys took a look at REDLINE. Hot damn what a visual treat.
I’m totally that type of nerd to just start pointing out cgi, stunt and animation stuff I learned on this channel to every single one of my friends all the time. Thanks!!
