Ralph Bakshi | Animation's New Wave

• Music Master or Music ...
Ralph Bakshi is a powerful figure in the history of animation. Seeing how bored he was with the conventions of the day, he seemed to single handedly forge a path of controversy and success right through the animated world of the 70's and 80's.
Love or hate his work, Ralph Bakshi's impact on animation can't be denied. Despite being forced into a corner consistently, he always seemed to come back with a completed animated project.
Like Scorcese, Spielberg, Lucas, Coppola, his vision and excellent study of what stories he felt needed to be told, changed the world forever.
To me, he's more than just a Master at Adult animation, and I can't be clearer when I think Ralph Bakshi almost single mindedly changed animation.

    Same here. Having watched his whole library of films, I've only gravitated towards one (or maybe two) of them. The rest never seemed to click with me - it felt like he was more interested in making his films explicitly shocking and subversive than telling an engaging story that made better use of the more mature rating. But when it comes to his ambition and position that animation shouldn't be limited by an audience, I wholeheartedly agree with him. A medium cannot and shouldn't be defined by a particular demographic. I mean, not all live-action films are for adults, so why should animation be limited to kids? Sadly, Hollywood is a machine that only regurgitates what it's already been fed. As much as Bakshi tried opposing the mainstream animation industry and succeeded, his contributions have also attributed to the bad stigma that most adult animation created in the US still suffers from today - from pointless shock-value to excessive amounts of adult content just to drive the point across that it's for an older audience. It isn't his fault, I should stress, but he did have a hand in shaping that mentality.

  • @drmilkweed
    @drmilkweed8 ай бұрын

    Bakshi's films are art and I love each and every one. There's something inspiring about living in a world where Disney the man defined animation and being like Bakshi. People deride his work as being pure shock value or intentionally disturbing and like, yeah! That's the point! That's what makes him so brilliant and what makes his films so noteworthy. He obviously really loves the medium of animation and he took it from a toy for babies and made it something that could tell serious stories, dirty jokes, tender moments, brutal inhumanity. He saw something nobody else did and fought like hell to let us see it the way he did, and for that I'm grateful to him.

    Seeing this and thinking about how Disney treated animation studios/artists like easily replaceable cogs in a Model T factory is frustrating. But beyond that is how TODAY in Japan animation studios pay their massive pools of artists crap. Utter poverty level wages, below poverty. I don't know how the poor buggers survive. Not to mention the same shitty (and worse) expectations and treatment in the games industry. They want the quality product an artist provides, but oh no they aren't willing to pay for it.

There was excitement and talk about it shortly before it arrived, maybe a few weeks or so. It definitely was considered a serious stoner movie and event, like laser light shows, a big concert like Zeppelin or Pink Floyd or something. So almost everyone went very stoned. Me and this one girl I was hanging out with, we went and smoked 2 joints behind the theater right before the movie started, then went in to see it. FUN TIMES!! I am sure this same scene played out in towns both small and large all around the world. That movie was awesome, I still feel real nostalgic about it!!

It's totally worth a nostalgic trip, but could have been so much more with a little more time and polish. The scene where Lord Nekron manipulates Princess Teegra's brother into slaying his own personal guard and then impaling himself, all the while his eyes bulging from their sockets, his body trembling as he fights the ice lord's dark magic, will forever haunt me. Or when Darkwolf roars *_NEEEKKRROOONNN!!!_* Overcoming the scrawny wizard's magic and sticking a dual-headed axe deep into his guts! No flashy CGI particle effects, no five minutes of slow motion.

    Ralph Bakshi is one of my all time favourite directors (along with Kubrick and Ken Russell) because like those directors his finger prints were all over his films and he actually opened up the doors and broke the rules (not just for animation but for filmmaking in general). But unlike someone like Kubrick who is well known and had clout (and a lot of there films are readily available on all sides of the globe) Bakshi's work is sadly only known within animation and cult film circles, and those outside those groups who happen to stumble across his work dismiss it from the surface level as p*rnographic, or mediocre or even racist, (to those who haven't seen Coonskin outside the poster) (and to anyone who say's Bakshi is a racist or his films are racist, I will fight you tooth and nail). Even though I'm one of the five people on earth who hasn't seen any version of Lord of the Rings, to those Peter Jackson fanatics who say the Bakshi film is crap, you are entitled to your opinion but you can't deny, if that film didn't exist you wouldn't have the Jackson films so give it the credit it deserves.

    I love that he said he doesn’t make movies for everyone. That’s the ideal of art for me. Many different kinds of people each making art from their perspective. Accepting all the quirks and flaws and subjectivity that emerges with the artistry.

    Very well done. Wizards changed my World when it came to animated films. It was the first adult animation I’d seen, and I loved it. Ralph Bakshi should receive some kind of lifetime achievement award, but he would probably give it back. Thanks for making this.

    I must've been too young to appreciate either Fritz or Wizards because I remember watching parts of them. No full scenes, just know bits and pieces, certain characters looked familiar, and that they weren't for little babies. When I was 16 I watched heavy metal and loved it so I'm certain Ralph's films will tickle my twisted fancy at 23 lol.
