Fun fact: the original show was extremely popular in Russia to the point where pretty much every Russian millennial had (or still has) a crush on Gadget. There’s even a cult dedicated to worshipping her.
can’t wait for the part where they look directly into the camera and say ‘remember when we were the shopkeepers that sold gummy ship accessories in the kingdom hearts series, that sure was strange’
@@disappointeddegenerate3186 I'd say that could actually make for a funny parody, but I think that applies to the whole movie so wtf am I talking about

I'm a sucker for shows and movies that shares different animation styles, like Gumball & Smiling Friends, but the "traditional" animation here looks really weird. It's like it's still a computer animated model disguised as a 2D character.
@@videogamenostalgia Yeah, it's just not well done, like they just slapped a texture on tge models and called it good. Anyone who wants to see 2D animation made using 3D assets actually done well can just look at worthikids right here on TH-cam.
@@videogamenostalgia It's weird because there have been some short films Disney made in the last couple years that blend 2D and 3D animation very well. Why they couldn't just use it in this film, I have no idea.
I think it's becoming clear that disney isn't very comfortable with animating outside of 3d for some reason. As someone who works exclusively with 2d animation, I'm pretty sure it would look alot better if they'd only used the 3d models as a reference point for stuff like perspective and angles rather than trying to mimic 3d by tracing on top of it.
@@DeepEye1994 I would argue it's worse than Space Jam 2 because at least Space Jam 2 brought back fully hand-drawn animation. This Chip n Dale "reboot" doesn't even have that.
It's funny that the movie is making fun of those mo-cap animated films Robert Zemeckis worked on, despite the fact Disney distributed two of those films themselves.
One thing that really bothers me is how much the 2D animation has been downgraded compared to 2D animation from the past Disney movies. They used to be the kings of 2D animation, but ever since abandoning it in favor of CGI, they’re 2D department is noticeably getting worse. It’s very telling that they had to rehire aging 2D animators for Mary Poppins returns rather than train new young blood. It’s honestly sad that they just abandoned their style of 2D animation in favor of this cheap looking cel shaded crap. At least they still utilize 2D animation in rough pencil animations for movies like Encanto so it’s not completely dead, but they’re treating CGI as the next step of animation rather than seeing it as a completely different medium.
There is still some actual 2D animation in the movie though, and it looks great. It's just a total shame they didn't seem to have the budget to do the main characters in 2D, kind of goes against the point of their concept.
sucks cause a lot of non-film people get their idea of animation and what it could be from Disney, and they're totally misrepresenting the potential of 2D here
The saddest thing is it’s not just Disney. Heck, Disney is pretty much the only big studio still even the tiniest bit in the 2D game. Literally all 2D animation is getting worse. I wouldn’t be surprised if it soon is essentially a lost art form.
I fucking hated the Corridor Crew episode he was featured in, every time he laughed that fucking laugh, it felt so forced and fake, almost as if it's some kind of "mocking call" of some fucked up animal.
I find it really insulting that they pull a "remember Roger Rabbit!?" I just want to say "remember Richard Williams!?" This film feels like it's dancing on his grave. As many have said before, the "traditional" animated model is **clearly** an just a 3d model with cel shading at a lower framerate while lacking squash and stretch! Not only that, the facial expressions feel muted and robotic. There's nothing inherently wrong with using 3d models to make "traditional" animation in order to save time and work. There are plenty of instances where using 3D models can be used to make animation that actually looks "traditional" (Worthikids, Fox in Space, etc).
>lack of squash and stretch That's it. Couldn't put my finger on it but that's probably the biggest reason the "2D" characters look like crap. Second culprit imo is the lack of realistic shading on them. Like, going back to Roger Rabbit every single shot with a toon character had an extra dedicated cel just for the shadows, helped along no doubt by the fact that Richard Williams was some kind of savant when it came to drawing three dimensional objects in motion. It really sold the idea that these were painted characters living in a 3D world. This animation sells the idea that Disney wanted to renew the copyright on a nostalgic franchise as cheap as possible.
That's what happens when you fire your entire 2D Animation Department 10 years ago and thought that 2D animation wouldn't ever be popular anymore. Disney is stupid for doing that and was the worst decision they've done.
Just wait til theres no one to hire anymore for traditional animation because they're all dead in a few years to come. The people at Disney are actually brain dead.
Modern day Hollywood trailers in a nutshell: Let's put some random recent pop songs that have nothing to do with the movie just for the sake of "being cool and hip with the kids".
Actually shat myself at the ponies bc it literally looks like they took those old SFM models from like 2012 or something, slapped it in there, and called it a day.
I watch someone react to this trailer and they said it feels like they wanted to make a Roger Rabbit sequel and they couldn’t, so they just used Chip and Dale instead. And holy cow that’s pretty accurate.
I heard a similar theory, that the script was originally written as a Bonkers reboot (a Disney afternoon show that had a zany cartoon cat with more realistic cartoon humans). The plot synopsis had a similar angle of cartoon characters solving real-world crimes. While this theory is probably not true, seeing as nobody actually remembers Bonkers, I feel that this plot would have been a much better fit in the Bonkers universe.
Oh, god. Did Disney just discover irony? Cool, looks like we’ll be getting vapid “self-awareness” for the next 10 years before they realize people moved on from it 20 years ago.
@@BigBossMan538 Honestly speaking? sincerity. Being self-aware while also being sincere takes a good writer since you're practically trying to connect two opposite ideas at the same time, but it can be done really well! Abed Nadir from Community is a good example of this. His main gimmick throughout the show is that he's able to point out the common movie and sitcom tropes that goes on within his and his friend's life, solely because he grew up with TV as a child as a form of escapism from his parent's divorce. Sounds a bit cheesy at first, but the overall execution is actually very wonderful.
Sadly, they already tried self-awareness in their kids' movies in a desperate attempt to ape Dreamworks in the 2000s, and it resulted in the miserable slog known as Chicken Little.
They discovered it after Shrek came out and were gaslit into beliving their movies weren't good or were "cliche". Post Shrek was a bad time for Disney because they basically canned 2D animation and produce a lot of "self aware" stuff like this
Disney parodying itself is genuinely cringe. They act like they're smart for critiquing their Disney Princess line in a woke way, but it comes off as trying way too hard everytime. In fact it becomes an over-correction when they did it in Wreck-It Ralph 2 when they bash on the common aspects and do their own mimicking of buzzfeed-feminist takes on Ariel being a bad role model when she really wasn't.
It's embarrassing how the damn Screen Test for the cancelled Roger Rabbit 2, made in 1998 (th-cam.com/video/E_QsAfOIWZc/w-d-xo.html), has better cel shaded CGI than something made in the 2020's. This is clearly just going to be another Space Jam 2.
That looks great but it was so expensive and time consuming to make that cause of the man hours that had to go into it which can’t really be helped much with better tech. That doesn’t mean this looks good, just that it’s a shame we can’t get it likely due to the lower budget, straight to Disney plus movie where a ton of the budget is going to the recognizable actors.
I honestly would love to see a Roger Rabbit sequel but I’m afraid it’ll be another Space Jam 2 and quite possibly this movie all over…just another “MEMBA THIS? MEMBA THAT? MEMBA BIG CHUNGUS?!!” Requels need to fucking end asap!
@@carter_lovejoy I feel like even if people saw the original today they would call it that. Cause it did have a shit ton of references and cameos to other stuff. It’s way funnier and looks way better but it’s still a ton of memba this memba that. It feels like people have soured to that now almost completely because of movies like space jam 2.
That actually wasn't terrible. WHY? SINCE IT DIDN'T GO FOR REALISTIC HAIR. WHY do you have cartoon proportions on your 3d model then creepily realistic hair and skin on square heads (UP). That's Pixar's doing though, they started that trend. Since it was just a wanking contest to compete with Dreamworks. And we all suffered for it. 3D animation should have been used to replace CLAY ANIMATION while keeping the stylings.
It's amazing that Disney+ is supposed to be the future of movie and media consumption but it is just the new "Straight to DVD". Even Netflix doesn't has this kind of stigma on their movies.
refereces!! celebreties!! 2010s style meta humor!! remember the 90s? remember Roger Rabbit? I know what THAT is!! Look at how many IPs Disney owns!! yup it's one of THOSE movies.
Yeah, I haven't seen this trailer in months, but that part has stayed in my head. It just feels so off-putting that I can't help but stare while being repulsed.
Words can't describe how tired I am of reboots/remakes/whatever the fuck execs keep shitting out in place of having to take a risk on original ideas. Jesus Christ when will the era of rehashes end??
Yeah it’s true that Disney especially has been doing lazy sequels to things forever, I just think now with streaming services they’re more accessible than ever and everybody is being exposed to its shamelessness
@@coletrainhetrick I'm fully aware they've always existed. Doesn't change the fact that the massive corporations that own most of the entertainment industry these days haven't ALSO started heavily relying on reviving older properties into mediocre shells of their former existence because it's a "safer" alternative to producing original stories and appealing to the lowest common denominator is the fastest way to make a profit. Did you have a point to make?

"It isn't necessary to imagine the world ending in fire or ice -- there are two other possibilities: one is paperwork, and the other is nostalgia. When you compute the length of time between 'The Event' and 'Nostalgia For The Event,' the span seems to be about 'a year less in each cycle.' Eventually, within the next quarter of a century the nostalgia cycles will be so close together that people will not be able to take a step without being nostalgic for the one they just took. At that point, everything stops. Death by Nostalgia."
They're making fun of the uncanny 'lifeless eyes" the characters in Beowulf had. Though it's considered a dud, I have infinitely more respect for that animation team (as well as Zemeckis) than anyone involved in this.
At least Zemeckis was being experimental and tried to make an R-rated animated movie that justified having the rating. Disney is just making a crummy sequel that makes self-aware jokes to make up for its animation inadequacies.
@@libRteedude And how much of a hack writer do you have to be to say "hmm I want to make fun of the animation in Beowulf, how do I do it? Oh I know, just have the main character run into a CGI Viking who's standing on the sidewalk for no reason and start commenting on how the animation looks." ???
At this rate by 2025 every American film is just going to be creatively bankrupt le epic self aware remakes and sequels made solely for Redditors. Honestly pretty depressing.
I wonder how people would react to the meta narrative if it had Roger Rabbit as the central character instead of Chip & Dale. Because I actually like the "washed up 2D actor trying to stay relevant in a world that wants 3D CGI" concept in theory.
Seeing how the actual 2d charachters are animated in this dumpsterfire, I am of the opinion that it would be basically the same, but just more noticeable worse due to the comparison. Also, due to how uninspired is the washed up actor storyline is, I feel that It really wouldn't justify it's own existence.
I never watched Rescue Rangers, but they were chipmunks that had adventures right? Couldn't they just have an adventure? If you're going to make a movie about meta-commentary on various styles of animation, wouldn't it make more sense to use a franchise that is well-known for its use of animation? Roger Rabbit would make more sense to do this idea since it was a major leap forward in incorporating animation into live-action footage. They could have done this idea with Darkwing Duck or Gargoyles and it would have made just as much sense as Chip and Dale.
Now gargoyles would definitely bring ppl to watch, especially if they put any heart into it. So many characters and shows that ppl loved which never got the appreciation they deserved.... but nope let's just puke up the same crap over and over and over
damn dude the roger rabbit idea could've been a smart move for disney too -revival of roger rabbit. I thought they loved that sorta thing. This feels out of place and weird coming from chip and dale
Rescue Rangers was, allegedly, a sarcastic pitch made by someone who was pissed off about being assigned to come up with stuff involving legacy characters like Chip and Dale, but then the executives in charge took the pitch seriously and tasked them with developing their deliberately bad idea. Aqua Teen Hunger Force initially parodied that with the "they're detectives, I guess" angle. Knight Rider was an earlier example of the same kind of thing happening.
They had adventures and solved the crimes that were too small for the police, yep! Basically chipmunk detectives. I guess that's too hard to write, so Disney just opted for lots of pop culture references instead.
I'm not even close to the Chip and Dale/Rescue Rangers franchise and even *I* felt a little bit of myself die inside. Disney has *clearly* given up by this point. And that big fucking middle finger from Disney? "REBOOT!" and then tries to backpedal with "no one wants a reboot!" like are you fucking serious rn? I....I don't even...I'm just..dead inside.
For Smiling Friends, they were sent two versions of 3D Squelton: one with just key-frames and one with smoothed out animation, going with the key-frames because it was funnier. Some attention and cleverness can really make mixed media so much better.
That's why I care more for their animation studio than their live action stuff these days. Sure, they're not all winners either *(COUGH* Raya and the Last Dragon *COUGH)* but at least there's still more creativity in that aspect than any of their remakes.
I had this weird dream. I was watching the live action chip and dale movie, something went towards the red nosed one's head. Next shot, his head was missing. It looked like it was about to do that thing where it looks like a character got beheaded and then their head pops up out of their body, so I waited a couple seconds for it, but his body just plopped to the ground.
Disney saw how WB and HBO's Space Jam 2 was just a giant commercial for all of their streamable media properties and their CEO's were like, "WE NEED ONE OF THOSE!!"
It’s frustrating how a big part of this seems to have been made in a similar way to Spiderverse - 3D animation with a 2D pass over the top - yet does nothing special with it to show stylised and exaggerated 2D movements that people remember fondly from older animations
I'm legitimately irritated by how lazy "2D animated" Chip is. Like, if you pause around 6:07, you get a pretty good look at the linework on Chip's shirt and you can see that THE LINES AREN'T EVEN STRAIGHT! They're crooked and awkward and look terrible. However, this normally wouldn't be a problem in frame by frame animation, since each frame is only on screen for a tiny fraction of a second. As long as the linework is close enough to looking like the previous and next frames, then it's impossible to scrutinize the linework this way. But they didn't do frame by frame animation, hell, they didn't even do 2D animation. Chip is so obviously a 3D model that has some stuff drawn on it in blender or some other modeling software. They are so lazy to not even commit to the fucking gimmick that the movie is based on. The absolute worst part about this travesty is that Chip, Dale, Gadget, and Monterey Jack have already appeared in the new Ducktales show on Disney XD. They have good designs because the people who work on that show clearly have talent! Why did Disney not just hire them to work on this movie? Disney made Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a fact that they clearly know since they reference it in the trailer, which means that they have a documented process that both works and can be improved upon if needed for making 2D animation function in a 3D space. A team of talented people could absolutely pull this off with the right resources. The only reason as to why this movie looks so awful is because nobody with any control over the project cared. It's that obvious. Edit: I just noticed after watching the trailer in a different window that the reason why the lines on Chip's shirt are crooked is because the shirt is also a 3D object, so the shirt is covering the lines unevenly, so my point about frame-by-frame animation is moot. However, this just makes my point about how little they were willing to commit to 2D animation even more relevant.
Finally, a deserving live action masterpiece Also the "realistic" one looks so much worse than any of the liveaction alvin and the chipmunks. Good lord that face. Hollywood really needs to hire some more furries
@@anth636 I don't find it particularly funny since I highly doubt it will change. Disney wants to have it's cake and eat it too, have this quirky meta movie criticising their shit, and also keep making the shit
Hot take here: The chipmunk design and cgi in Alvin 4 actually looked half decent, and that was primarily because they did the next best thing and make them extremely cartoony and brightened up their design and models to make them pop more. How they took a step back is mind boggling
This would be cute if it was a re-imagined animation to fit the modern times. But it’s literally just “Cartoons and people exist in the same world and cartoons know they’re cartoons!”. So basically it’s Space Jam 2 and Chris Chan’s idea of paradise.
I feel like they made this movie with a lot of Covid restrictions and that’s why everything looks so disconnected. When they were making Rodger Rabbit and even Ted and Ted 2 they had a lot of people on set who were gonna be overseeing the animation aspect to make sure they could make it look as perfect as possible with even a lot of real life dolls to get the shadows in the animation just right. It really doesn’t look like they did any of that here.
I have no idea how Disney of all studios can make their 2D characters look horribly off-model in every damn scene but by God they did it 😍 Edit: Okay reading some comments, apparently it's not even 2D, it's just a 3D model dressed up to look like a 2D one That's both hilarious and tragic 🤣
I think Adam and most of the comments are being cynical about the wrong thing here. Maybe the animation doesn't look amazing, but they're doing something interesting with it at least. What we should be rioting about is that this is YET ANOTHER memberberry the movie. Studios are just going to keep making these Ready Player One-Space Jam A New Legacy-The Lego Movie Epic™️ Crossover™️ Events™️ until we do something about it. All of the people with interesting ideas are going to be forced to do this shit just to have a chance.
The style mashup just looks like I’m making a movie in SFM with assets ripped from other games. Also he’ll yeah iam8bit has a sick persona box set no sponsee
Ok. You know what. I'm ok with them making a joke about terrible animation without realizing that their movie has terrible animation in the same way I'm ok with X-Men Apocalypse making a joke about the 3rd parts sucking and then sucked itself. But DEAR GOD, this trailer is constant "AH HA HA HA HA *knock knock* WHO'S THERE? IT'S BAD ANIMATION" level of "jokes". It's cringe and the only thing you are going to achieve is to people more mercilessly ripping on your terrible animation because you JUST.WON'T.SHUT.UP about it. The writers of this piece of garbage should never be allowed to write "comedy" again.
Straight to Disney+ is the new VHS sequel in the nineties. This is the same company that brought us timeless classics like The Little Mermaid 2: Return to the Sea, Tarzan & Jane, The Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 and Cienderella 3: A Twist in Time. Glad to see the company is finally going back to their roots.
Holy shit the scene with the ponies looks SO BAD and I just know that in the actual movie there's gonna be a cringey meta reference to bronies and it's gonna be somehow worse
I would forgive this movie's terrible animation, if it wasn't a "funny" self aware meta-commentary. Because acknowledging that you're a pointless reboot isn't actually funny, you're just acknowledging that you're a pointless reboot
"Da MatrixJam" is the best description for all these cheap, lazy, self-deprecating garbage fires. It's unfortunately going to be the standard for most films in the next decade, so we're going to need a shorthand to describe these shitty CGI monstrosities. The death of cinema now has its final nail in its coffin. RIP old friend, you were awesome for the first 50-70 years, then you became a worn-out piece of pandering dogshit. But I guess we'll always have the memories of your golden days, (until the movie studios start making copies of past films illegal unless they're rented on streaming services or shown a few times in overcrowded multiplexes).😞
I think it started with 22 Jump Street. No memorable jokes, just a bunch of "isn't this what we were doing last time? wink wink" and people called it brilliant.
I mean, what you're saying is what critics have been saying since the dawn of cinema. "It's the death of literacy!" Then, when cinema became an accepted artform, there were the dime a dozen sci fi alien movies of the 1950-60's that were the "death of cinema." Then, when Spielberg and Lucas began the era of popcorn movies, it was another "death of cinema." Fuck, there has been awful shit since the beginning, and will continue to be awful shit. However, there will still be quality, which are the movies that will survive the single clickbait cycle.
Here's a possible name. CineMeta Mess. Films that try to be high quality meta deconstructions of a film genre or the film industry, but just come off as out of touch and bad.
The '2D' models in this largely arent even actual 2D. theyre cellshaded 3D models trying to copy the style... which can be done to great results but here theyre done pretty wonkily. thats why they look bad. theyre 3D poorly costumed up to look like 2D because disney really wants to put as little actual 2D in any of these films cus guess which animators are unionised and which arent
They definitely wanted to do another '2D' Space Jam/ Who Framed Roger Rabbit type movie (I know its still cgi but still) but they decided they needed to make one character CGI so that it still feels high budget
In a parallel universe where Adam is straight, and wanted to fuck Gadget and not Scar, this is the movie that he is spending a decade making a review for.
Chip and Dale was my favorite thing for like two years when I was a dumb babey. It was probably an okay show but I haven't seen it since then and it's fine where it is in the past. I dunno who tf this is for.
When Adum said that different styles can work in the same film he was completely right, but that would require everyone working on it to know what they're doing and to care about the project. Here's an animated short film that utilizes that correctly: th-cam.com/video/d0v6IrUXlaI/w-d-xo.html
This looks like the most pathetic, shallow cash grab of a refresh I've ever seen. It looks like the animators had what fun they could, but those concepts are just ... what? Why mix in so much contemporary media and references to an IP from the 90's? Why does most of this teaser involve so many other IPs?? This just _SCREAMS_ Space Jam 2.5: Now With Chipmunks. ... Oh wait, Disney. Why did I expect creativity from that sweat shop?
Why are their voices like that? If they can make a chipmunk movie with high pitched voices they can do the same for Chip and Dale. I dont even know why they are bothering with this, kids these days wont even know who Chip and Dale are :/
I remember when they announced this people, people were excited, I told them that they really don't want this, they objected to me saying that stating, "the production didn't even start yet, man! How the fuck would you even know?", And I said I know. Now no one is talking about it now there's a trailer, where are those cowards who called me a liar?
Ah yes the "I'm making fun of stale/dated ways of making and/or delivering jokes but at the same time use exactly that type of humour because just being self-aware is enough" humour
Imagine if we lived in a world where there was any will at Disney to make a genuine, not snarky, not ironic, Rescue Rangers film, like in the style of something like The Rescuers, back in the day. Imagine how much everyone would enjoy that. Like actual people who liked Disney movies back in the 80s and 90s, and now their kids. But nah, we get this shit. Cranked out cheap, thrown out, "eat your shit and be happy we bothered" movies. Weee.
The Indiana Jones reference was because of Chip's outfit. Him and Dale on that show were dressed as Indiana Jones and Magnum P.I. for no reason. There's probably a Magnum P.I. reference in the movie too.
I hate celebrity voice acting with every fiber of my being. That’s just John Mulaney talking. He’s putting no effort to be anyone else. That ain’t Chip, he’s just John Mulaney. That’s just Seth Rogen. Ffs get voice actors who will put effort in
The Lonely Island are such talented writers and performers, but giving them an effects-heavy reboot working under Disney is quite possibly the worst environment to use them in.
Ever the optimist, I'm hoping this might be a honey i shrunk the kids situation, where they're able to work within the confines to make a good movie... Modern Disney is way different than honey i shrunk the kids though.
Oh wow. Disney stooped to doing the full screen title card of big hollywood actors to market an animated movie they're pushing? Are they Illumination now? (The answer is yes, but how the mighty have fallen).
6:36 What I don't understand is, they have Pumbaa with his 2019 voice and design, but Scrooge with his 80's design and 2017 voice. If you're going to do meta, at least have your meta-ness with some level of internal consistency. Edit: The movie has now released and I am both proud and slightly ashamed to say I correctly identified David Tennant by only a laugh.
Ya know the CGI joke would’ve been kinda funny if the characters seeing their friend “look different” were actually drawn and themselves not CGI.
They're so lazy today! It actually makes me mad. I'm so thankful Roger Rabbit came out when it did.

sucks cause a lot of non-film people get their idea of animation and what it could be from Disney, and they're totally misrepresenting the potential of 2D here
The saddest thing is it’s not just Disney. Heck, Disney is pretty much the only big studio still even the tiniest bit in the 2D game. Literally all 2D animation is getting worse. I wouldn’t be surprised if it soon is essentially a lost art form.
The face-palm and genuine frustration at Seth's laugh getting the spotlight for the same joke for the trillionth time since 2005 had me dying
I fucking hated the Corridor Crew episode he was featured in, every time he laughed that fucking laugh, it felt so forced and fake, almost as if it's some kind of "mocking call" of some fucked up animal.
I find it really insulting that they pull a "remember Roger Rabbit!?" I just want to say "remember Richard Williams!?" This film feels like it's dancing on his grave.
As many have said before, the "traditional" animated model is **clearly** an just a 3d model with cel shading at a lower framerate while lacking squash and stretch! Not only that, the facial expressions feel muted and robotic.
There's nothing inherently wrong with using 3d models to make "traditional" animation in order to save time and work. There are plenty of instances where using 3D models can be used to make animation that actually looks "traditional" (Worthikids, Fox in Space, etc).
>lack of squash and stretch
That's it. Couldn't put my finger on it but that's probably the biggest reason the "2D" characters look like crap.
Second culprit imo is the lack of realistic shading on them. Like, going back to Roger Rabbit every single shot with a toon character had an extra dedicated cel just for the shadows, helped along no doubt by the fact that Richard Williams was some kind of savant when it came to drawing three dimensional objects in motion. It really sold the idea that these were painted characters living in a 3D world.
This animation sells the idea that Disney wanted to renew the copyright on a nostalgic franchise as cheap as possible.
THEY GO BACK TO YAVIN IV!
REMEMBER THE REBEL BAAAASE?!
That's what happens when you fire your entire 2D Animation Department 10 years ago and thought that 2D animation wouldn't ever be popular anymore.
Disney is stupid for doing that and was the worst decision they've done.
Just wait til theres no one to hire anymore for traditional animation because they're all dead in a few years to come. The people at Disney are actually brain dead.
I miss hand drawn Disney movies.
The amount of disrespect they have for hand drawn animation and acting like they've moved on when they clearly haven't is making me go feral
They’ve been making bad decisions for a very long time now
Ah, yes, Saweetie and Doja Cat. Because when I think of Chip & Dale, I think of extremely thotty music.
Modern day Hollywood trailers in a nutshell: Let's put some random recent pop songs that have nothing to do with the movie just for the sake of "being cool and hip with the kids".
Some of the 2D assets kinda look like VR chat models. Probably not the first person to make that comparison though.
I thought some of them looked like the Rick Sanchez model in fortnite... just completely out of place and weird
This is because the "2D" animation is actually cel-shaded CG animation.
Actually shat myself at the ponies bc it literally looks like they took those old SFM models from like 2012 or something, slapped it in there, and called it a day.
Those fan-made Gmod models looked way better than this, excuse you.
Where were they?
im confused
how the fuck can disney use that!
do they now own hasbro or something?!
Not even that, they look like the Gameloft models.
@@graphitetailgrace3870 wAIT NO FUCK, UR RIGHT
I watch someone react to this trailer and they said it feels like they wanted to make a Roger Rabbit sequel and they couldn’t, so they just used Chip and Dale instead. And holy cow that’s pretty accurate.
I heard a similar theory, that the script was originally written as a Bonkers reboot (a Disney afternoon show that had a zany cartoon cat with more realistic cartoon humans). The plot synopsis had a similar angle of cartoon characters solving real-world crimes. While this theory is probably not true, seeing as nobody actually remembers Bonkers, I feel that this plot would have been a much better fit in the Bonkers universe.
But Roger Rabbit literally cameos in the movie. I don't understand.
The mixing of different animation styles is pretty ambitious 10 years ago with Gumball did it.
And they did it better despite having a fraction of the budget
@@rockycuro7737 eerhhhhhh......
Oh, god. Did Disney just discover irony? Cool, looks like we’ll be getting vapid “self-awareness” for the next 10 years before they realize people moved on from it 20 years ago.
What makes for good self aware humor?
@@BigBossMan538 Honestly speaking? sincerity. Being self-aware while also being sincere takes a good writer since you're practically trying to connect two opposite ideas at the same time, but it can be done really well! Abed Nadir from Community is a good example of this. His main gimmick throughout the show is that he's able to point out the common movie and sitcom tropes that goes on within his and his friend's life, solely because he grew up with TV as a child as a form of escapism from his parent's divorce. Sounds a bit cheesy at first, but the overall execution is actually very wonderful.
Sadly, they already tried self-awareness in their kids' movies in a desperate attempt to ape Dreamworks in the 2000s, and it resulted in the miserable slog known as Chicken Little.
They discovered it after Shrek came out and were gaslit into beliving their movies weren't good or were "cliche". Post Shrek was a bad time for Disney because they basically canned 2D animation and produce a lot of "self aware" stuff like this
Disney parodying itself is genuinely cringe. They act like they're smart for critiquing their Disney Princess line in a woke way, but it comes off as trying way too hard everytime. In fact it becomes an over-correction when they did it in Wreck-It Ralph 2 when they bash on the common aspects and do their own mimicking of buzzfeed-feminist takes on Ariel being a bad role model when she really wasn't.
I guess I can officially say that turning 2D characters into CG characters in the same movie is my new least favorite trope.

Implying Uncle Ian wasn’t the true hero of the Alvin & The Chipmunks movie
It's embarrassing how the damn Screen Test for the cancelled Roger Rabbit 2, made in 1998 (th-cam.com/video/E_QsAfOIWZc/w-d-xo.html), has better cel shaded CGI than something made in the 2020's. This is clearly just going to be another Space Jam 2.
That looks great but it was so expensive and time consuming to make that cause of the man hours that had to go into it which can’t really be helped much with better tech. That doesn’t mean this looks good, just that it’s a shame we can’t get it likely due to the lower budget, straight to Disney plus movie where a ton of the budget is going to the recognizable actors.
Even Into the Spider-Verse pulled off the 2D aesthetic very well.
I honestly would love to see a Roger Rabbit sequel but I’m afraid it’ll be another Space Jam 2 and quite possibly this movie all over…just another “MEMBA THIS? MEMBA THAT? MEMBA BIG CHUNGUS?!!” Requels need to fucking end asap!
@@carter_lovejoy I feel like even if people saw the original today they would call it that. Cause it did have a shit ton of references and cameos to other stuff. It’s way funnier and looks way better but it’s still a ton of memba this memba that. It feels like people have soured to that now almost completely because of movies like space jam 2.
That actually wasn't terrible. WHY? SINCE IT DIDN'T GO FOR REALISTIC HAIR. WHY do you have cartoon proportions on your 3d model then creepily realistic hair and skin on square heads (UP). That's Pixar's doing though, they started that trend. Since it was just a wanking contest to compete with Dreamworks. And we all suffered for it. 3D animation should have been used to replace CLAY ANIMATION while keeping the stylings.
It's amazing that Disney+ is supposed to be the future of movie and media consumption
but it is just the new "Straight to DVD". Even Netflix doesn't has this kind of stigma on their movies.

Remakes have existed for all of time,3ven before movies existed. They aren't going to leave unless people stop paying for it.

@@coletrainhetrick I'm fully aware they've always existed. Doesn't change the fact that the massive corporations that own most of the entertainment industry these days haven't ALSO started heavily relying on reviving older properties into mediocre shells of their former existence because it's a "safer" alternative to producing original stories and appealing to the lowest common denominator is the fastest way to make a profit. Did you have a point to make?
@@BOFAMET I like how you said "did I have a point to make" when you just regress into an airhead douchebag and skipped over what i actually said. You can't help but be an ape can you? Even towards people thst aren't even antagonizing you.
"It isn't necessary to imagine the world ending in fire or ice -- there are two other possibilities: one is paperwork, and the other is nostalgia. When you compute the length of time between 'The Event' and 'Nostalgia For The Event,' the span seems to be about 'a year less in each cycle.' Eventually, within the next quarter of a century the nostalgia cycles will be so close together that people will not be able to take a step without being nostalgic for the one they just took. At that point, everything stops. Death by Nostalgia."
They're making fun of the uncanny 'lifeless eyes" the characters in Beowulf had. Though it's considered a dud, I have infinitely more respect for that animation team (as well as Zemeckis) than anyone involved in this.
And let's not forget HE DIRECTED Roger Rabbit, the movie this wants to be, which makes this feel extra insulting.
At least Zemeckis was being experimental and tried to make an R-rated animated movie that justified having the rating. Disney is just making a crummy sequel that makes self-aware jokes to make up for its animation inadequacies.
@@libRteedude And how much of a hack writer do you have to be to say "hmm I want to make fun of the animation in Beowulf, how do I do it? Oh I know, just have the main character run into a CGI Viking who's standing on the sidewalk for no reason and start commenting on how the animation looks." ???
At this rate by 2025 every American film is just going to be creatively bankrupt le epic self aware remakes and sequels made solely for Redditors. Honestly pretty depressing.
I wonder how people would react to the meta narrative if it had Roger Rabbit as the central character instead of Chip & Dale. Because I actually like the "washed up 2D actor trying to stay relevant in a world that wants 3D CGI" concept in theory.
Seeing how the actual 2d charachters are animated in this dumpsterfire, I am of the opinion that it would be basically the same, but just more noticeable worse due to the comparison.
Also, due to how uninspired is the washed up actor storyline is, I feel that It really wouldn't justify it's own existence.
@@makeitthrough_ I honestly really love that idea
I... still wouldn't watch it, honestly. Animation's still shit, and it'd still feel desperate either way
RickRaptor105 My god! Hello there! I'm your biggest fan!
Looks like a movie that was actually made almost a decade ago, and they just now decided to release it.
The live action/animation style always looks terrible and hasn’t been pulled off even remotely well since Who Framed Roger Rabbit
If it was made a decade ago the animation wouldn’t be so bad.
Some of the jokes and references feel that way too, like those ponies and the motion capture animated films Robert Zemeckis made.
@@alexanderfreeman3406 ironic how animation beside cgi has devolved so badly
I never watched Rescue Rangers, but they were chipmunks that had adventures right? Couldn't they just have an adventure?
If you're going to make a movie about meta-commentary on various styles of animation, wouldn't it make more sense to use a franchise that is well-known for its use of animation? Roger Rabbit would make more sense to do this idea since it was a major leap forward in incorporating animation into live-action footage.
They could have done this idea with Darkwing Duck or Gargoyles and it would have made just as much sense as Chip and Dale.
Now gargoyles would definitely bring ppl to watch, especially if they put any heart into it. So many characters and shows that ppl loved which never got the appreciation they deserved.... but nope let's just puke up the same crap over and over and over
i grew up on rescue rangers this is so insanely painful
damn dude the roger rabbit idea could've been a smart move for disney too -revival of roger rabbit. I thought they loved that sorta thing. This feels out of place and weird coming from chip and dale
Rescue Rangers was, allegedly, a sarcastic pitch made by someone who was pissed off about being assigned to come up with stuff involving legacy characters like Chip and Dale, but then the executives in charge took the pitch seriously and tasked them with developing their deliberately bad idea. Aqua Teen Hunger Force initially parodied that with the "they're detectives, I guess" angle.
Knight Rider was an earlier example of the same kind of thing happening.
They had adventures and solved the crimes that were too small for the police, yep! Basically chipmunk detectives.
I guess that's too hard to write, so Disney just opted for lots of pop culture references instead.
I'm not even close to the Chip and Dale/Rescue Rangers franchise and even *I* felt a little bit of myself die inside. Disney has *clearly* given up by this point.
And that big fucking middle finger from Disney? "REBOOT!" and then tries to backpedal with "no one wants a reboot!" like are you fucking serious rn? I....I don't even...I'm just..dead inside.
“No one wants a reboot!... Or any of the other rehashed crap were pumping out, but it makes money dammit!”
This movie looks like a VRChat lobby where you can try out fanmade models.
They're gonna try to make NFTs based on this, aren't they?
For Smiling Friends, they were sent two versions of 3D Squelton: one with just key-frames and one with smoothed out animation, going with the key-frames because it was funnier.
Some attention and cleverness can really make mixed media so much better.
Remember when Disney making new IPs was the norm, and not the exception? Now for every Encanto, we have 200 Live Action Remakes.
That's why I care more for their animation studio than their live action stuff these days. Sure, they're not all winners either *(COUGH* Raya and the Last Dragon *COUGH)* but at least there's still more creativity in that aspect than any of their remakes.
Most of their movies are based off of something else. Disney has rarely ever been original.
@@isaacman112 There's a huge difference between adapting a book/fairy tale and adapting something the same studio already made two decades ago.
Nothing sez hip, current, and relatable like raunchy rap music slapped over a lazy ass nostalgia grab.
Parrodying and criticizing other movies and styles, in a heartless and soulless meta reboot
Wow that is hilarious
I had this weird dream. I was watching the live action chip and dale movie, something went towards the red nosed one's head. Next shot, his head was missing. It looked like it was about to do that thing where it looks like a character got beheaded and then their head pops up out of their body, so I waited a couple seconds for it, but his body just plopped to the ground.
I can't belive how ugly this looks. As a RR fan, I'm offended.
Disney saw how WB and HBO's Space Jam 2 was just a giant commercial for all of their streamable media properties and their CEO's were like, "WE NEED ONE OF THOSE!!"
It’s frustrating how a big part of this seems to have been made in a similar way to Spiderverse - 3D animation with a 2D pass over the top - yet does nothing special with it to show stylised and exaggerated 2D movements that people remember fondly from older animations
this trailer would have me more optimistic if 1. they did ACTUAL 2d animation consistently and 2. roger rabbit didn't do it already
The sheer audacity to criticize other animation styles when it looks like this.
I'm legitimately irritated by how lazy "2D animated" Chip is. Like, if you pause around 6:07, you get a pretty good look at the linework on Chip's shirt and you can see that THE LINES AREN'T EVEN STRAIGHT! They're crooked and awkward and look terrible. However, this normally wouldn't be a problem in frame by frame animation, since each frame is only on screen for a tiny fraction of a second. As long as the linework is close enough to looking like the previous and next frames, then it's impossible to scrutinize the linework this way. But they didn't do frame by frame animation, hell, they didn't even do 2D animation. Chip is so obviously a 3D model that has some stuff drawn on it in blender or some other modeling software. They are so lazy to not even commit to the fucking gimmick that the movie is based on.
The absolute worst part about this travesty is that Chip, Dale, Gadget, and Monterey Jack have already appeared in the new Ducktales show on Disney XD. They have good designs because the people who work on that show clearly have talent! Why did Disney not just hire them to work on this movie? Disney made Who Framed Roger Rabbit, a fact that they clearly know since they reference it in the trailer, which means that they have a documented process that both works and can be improved upon if needed for making 2D animation function in a 3D space. A team of talented people could absolutely pull this off with the right resources.
The only reason as to why this movie looks so awful is because nobody with any control over the project cared. It's that obvious.
Edit: I just noticed after watching the trailer in a different window that the reason why the lines on Chip's shirt are crooked is because the shirt is also a 3D object, so the shirt is covering the lines unevenly, so my point about frame-by-frame animation is moot. However, this just makes my point about how little they were willing to commit to 2D animation even more relevant.
Finally, a deserving live action masterpiece
Also the "realistic" one looks so much worse than any of the liveaction alvin and the chipmunks. Good lord that face. Hollywood really needs to hire some more furries
The issues are with the producers who have the final say in character design, I don’t think they’re furries (yet)
Yeah, but thats the joke
@@anth636 I don't find it particularly funny since I highly doubt it will change. Disney wants to have it's cake and eat it too, have this quirky meta movie criticising their shit, and also keep making the shit
Hot take here: The chipmunk design and cgi in Alvin 4 actually looked half decent, and that was primarily because they did the next best thing and make them extremely cartoony and brightened up their design and models to make them pop more. How they took a step back is mind boggling
Really.
Adums reaction is priceless. 9:14 I’ve never seen him look so disturbed before.
This would be cute if it was a re-imagined animation to fit the modern times. But it’s literally just “Cartoons and people exist in the same world and cartoons know they’re cartoons!”. So basically it’s Space Jam 2 and Chris Chan’s idea of paradise.
I feel like they made this movie with a lot of Covid restrictions and that’s why everything looks so disconnected. When they were making Rodger Rabbit and even Ted and Ted 2 they had a lot of people on set who were gonna be overseeing the animation aspect to make sure they could make it look as perfect as possible with even a lot of real life dolls to get the shadows in the animation just right. It really doesn’t look like they did any of that here.
Good to get a furry’s perspective on anthro character designs
I was genuinely excited for this for only 10 seconds then loathed looking at it lmao
Oh yeah, this is what fans of the original show want
I have no idea how Disney of all studios can make their 2D characters look horribly off-model in every damn scene but by God they did it 😍
Edit: Okay reading some comments, apparently it's not even 2D, it's just a 3D model dressed up to look like a 2D one
That's both hilarious and tragic 🤣
I think Adam and most of the comments are being cynical about the wrong thing here. Maybe the animation doesn't look amazing, but they're doing something interesting with it at least. What we should be rioting about is that this is YET ANOTHER memberberry the movie. Studios are just going to keep making these Ready Player One-Space Jam A New Legacy-The Lego Movie Epic™️ Crossover™️ Events™️ until we do something about it. All of the people with interesting ideas are going to be forced to do this shit just to have a chance.

Straight to Disney+ is the new VHS sequel in the nineties. This is the same company that brought us timeless classics like The Little Mermaid 2: Return to the Sea, Tarzan & Jane, The Hunchback of Notre Dame 2 and Cienderella 3: A Twist in Time. Glad to see the company is finally going back to their roots.
Saw the thumbnail and ooh boy that character design is VERY deep in the uncanny valley.
Holy shit the scene with the ponies looks SO BAD
and I just know that in the actual movie there's gonna be a cringey meta reference to bronies and it's gonna be somehow worse
I would forgive this movie's terrible animation, if it wasn't a "funny" self aware meta-commentary.
Because acknowledging that you're a pointless reboot isn't actually funny, you're just acknowledging that you're a pointless reboot
"Da MatrixJam" is the best description for all these cheap, lazy, self-deprecating garbage fires. It's unfortunately going to be the standard for most films in the next decade, so we're going to need a shorthand to describe these shitty CGI monstrosities. The death of cinema now has its final nail in its coffin. RIP old friend, you were awesome for the first 50-70 years, then you became a worn-out piece of pandering dogshit. But I guess we'll always have the memories of your golden days, (until the movie studios start making copies of past films illegal unless they're rented on streaming services or shown a few times in overcrowded multiplexes).😞
I think it started with 22 Jump Street. No memorable jokes, just a bunch of "isn't this what we were doing last time? wink wink" and people called it brilliant.
Cinema hasn’t died, it’s just that actual good film is much more difficult to seek out.
I mean, what you're saying is what critics have been saying since the dawn of cinema. "It's the death of literacy!" Then, when cinema became an accepted artform, there were the dime a dozen sci fi alien movies of the 1950-60's that were the "death of cinema." Then, when Spielberg and Lucas began the era of popcorn movies, it was another "death of cinema."
Fuck, there has been awful shit since the beginning, and will continue to be awful shit. However, there will still be quality, which are the movies that will survive the single clickbait cycle.
Here's a possible name. CineMeta Mess. Films that try to be high quality meta deconstructions of a film genre or the film industry, but just come off as out of touch and bad.
This trailer is so soulless it took a part of me with it.
The '2D' models in this largely arent even actual 2D. theyre cellshaded 3D models trying to copy the style... which can be done to great results but here theyre done pretty wonkily. thats why they look bad. theyre 3D poorly costumed up to look like 2D because disney really wants to put as little actual 2D in any of these films cus guess which animators are unionised and which arent
Ah yes, the sequel movie to 2018's "Hi, Look At How Many Things We Own or Can Otherwise Temporarily Own".
The people that make these kinds of things think they are being so clever but in reality they are making the cringiest shit imaginable.
They definitely wanted to do another '2D' Space Jam/ Who Framed Roger Rabbit type movie (I know its still cgi but still) but they decided they needed to make one character CGI so that it still feels high budget

It looks like the animators had what fun they could, but those concepts are just ... what? Why mix in so much contemporary media and references to an IP from the 90's? Why does most of this teaser involve so many other IPs?? This just _SCREAMS_ Space Jam 2.5: Now With Chipmunks.
... Oh wait, Disney. Why did I expect creativity from that sweat shop?
I don't even know who Chip and Dale are; I thought this was another Alvin and the Chipmunks movie at first
Why are their voices like that? If they can make a chipmunk movie with high pitched voices they can do the same for Chip and Dale. I dont even know why they are bothering with this, kids these days wont even know who Chip and Dale are :/
They want to make a nostalgiabait movie for Rescue Rangers fans but also wanted to have a famous main cast so they can sell tickets better.
I remember when they announced this people, people were excited, I told them that they really don't want this, they objected to me saying that stating, "the production didn't even start yet, man! How the fuck would you even know?", And I said I know. Now no one is talking about it now there's a trailer, where are those cowards who called me a liar?
Ah yes the "I'm making fun of stale/dated ways of making and/or delivering jokes but at the same time use exactly that type of humour because just being self-aware is enough" humour
Chip looks like a fucking Garry’s mod rig
This whole movie is a perfect example of the glass house metaphor.
Imagine if we lived in a world where there was any will at Disney to make a genuine, not snarky, not ironic, Rescue Rangers film, like in the style of something like The Rescuers, back in the day. Imagine how much everyone would enjoy that. Like actual people who liked Disney movies back in the 80s and 90s, and now their kids. But nah, we get this shit. Cranked out cheap, thrown out, "eat your shit and be happy we bothered" movies. Weee.

I want a Chippendale to tease me
I dont think I've ever seen a trailer that made me want to jump off a skyscraper before but this one does it.
Mixing the animation styles this tastelessly makes the movie feel like an asset flip
The Indiana Jones reference was because of Chip's outfit. Him and Dale on that show were dressed as Indiana Jones and Magnum P.I. for no reason. There's probably a Magnum P.I. reference in the movie too.
Honestly glad they're releasing it on Disney+.
Means I can [LEGALLY PURCHASE] it as soon as it comes out.
I hate celebrity voice acting with every fiber of my being. That’s just John Mulaney talking. He’s putting no effort to be anyone else. That ain’t Chip, he’s just John Mulaney. That’s just Seth Rogen. Ffs get voice actors who will put effort in
I blame Shrek for popularizing this.
The Lonely Island are such talented writers and performers, but giving them an effects-heavy reboot working under Disney is quite possibly the worst environment to use them in.
Ever the optimist, I'm hoping this might be a honey i shrunk the kids situation, where they're able to work within the confines to make a good movie... Modern Disney is way different than honey i shrunk the kids though.
