⭐️ ABOUT THIS VIDEO
Recently I saw a lot of online discourse around Elio, Pixar, and the Bean Mouth "Calarts" art style, as well as reasons as to why did not perform very well, so I decided to do my own video, giving my own personal input as an animator, but most importantly, discussing "what makes a good movie in the first place?"
0:00 the backlash against 'elio' recently...
2:44 art, character design and the bean mouth syndrome
8:47 story, representation and relatability
16:29 so really, what makes a good film?
