    Here's a fun fact about Forspoken: One of its credited writers is Amy Hennig, the woman behind the legendary Legacy of Kain series -- which I consider a personal influence on my vocabulary growing up -- as well as the Uncharted series. This is the equivalent of watching Leonardo da Vinci go from painting the Mona Lisa to drawing stick figures with a lump of dried poo.

If it was made for people who like fantasy epics with political intrigue, why have a comic relief and cookie cutter characters? If it was made for fans of worldbuilding, why is the worldbuilding so plot convenient?

    Jason Maurer, one of the directors of the film, was one of my professors in art College. If I remember correctly, he got two opportunities at once, he could do this film or direct a Halo game. We all kind of laughed when he told us this, considered how things turned out, but he doesn't regret the film. Despite how things turned out. He even has tattoos on his arms that are references to the movie. I think he saw it as a learning opportunity for him, and in a way, an accomplishment, how often does one get the opportunity to direct a film. Though, I'm sure he wished things had turned out better. Hopefully, I got all that right, it was like ten years ago since I was in college.

    Any offer for a Halo job would have been a couple years in after the Delgo work started, a choice to keep going with the movie or jump ship. Wikipedia says that Delgo began in 1999 but by late '97 concept "art, " sculptures, 3d scanner work and rough scripts were already being written. I know because I was there, and dislike revisionist history.

Anyway, the point of my comment was he had two choices and he chose Delgo, something that didn't pan out but still took it all in stride and respect.

A cool aside: another 3d dev who was there at the same time tried to sell the boss on doing short films at first, instead of a full feature all in one go... Boss wasn't hearing any of it. The 3d dev left for Turner and went on to do (at least) the early years of TOM for Toonami. The shorts panned out well.

    Let me tell you some facts about the production of this movie. Fathom Studios, the company behind this movie, began development in 1999 and animation work began in 2001. As you can tell, their in production hell for too long. This explains why Anne Bancroft and John Vernon passed away before the film was released in theaters and lost 40 million dollars at the box office. You can tell that this film was inspired by Lord of the Rings, Star Wars: Clone Wars, and that game by EA called Spore.

    The "comedic" relief guy is like, every single bad aspect of that trope all at once. He's A) Goofy to the point of being a hindrance to the group. B) Every line of dialogue is nothing short of punchable, from voicing, to the very lines as written. C) Instead of actively contributing to the strength of the party, his actions work in direct service to the villains. And D)He has a randomly undeserved "hero" moment with little to no development to make it funny, or a satisfying cap to a character arc. Like sure, we know he has a slingshot. But last time he used it, he was literally so incompetent he ended up compromising the mission. What, did he levelgrind offscreen? He should have been an annoying bumbling henchman to the big bad, as this would make the well better written (though still terrible) monkey kingdom give him a reason for his position despite being a militarized court jester, and subsequently, cut significantly down on the available screentime for him.

I think it comes full circle and works really well. It's just a shame it came out during the fastest period of development in CG. 5 years isn't much now, it was an eternity in the early 2000's

I guess the thing is we have all these aliens and fantastic races who can fly or breathe underwater and all that, and it makes sense that if they lost their special ability they'd feel as crippled as a human who suddenly lost their legs or something. So getting all these fake wings is pathetic butn understandable, someone trying to deal with a rather horrible emotional trauma.

But that could never happen in real life, right? RIGHT?!

    I think the implication is that it was Blue Guy who Delgo remembers saying that same line to him during the genocide. So Blue Guy sacrificed himself to save Delgo over feeling guilty for participating in destroying Delgo's village all those years ago. Also the movie isn't even that bad, just mediocre. It's the huge budget and long production time that makes it look like a disaster.

Heck, that isekai this season with the guy who becomes a vending machine in a fantasy world dungeon is more interesting! I mean, they defeat a fire-breathing monster with coke and mentos... that was hilarious. Nux Taku's pain when watching that scene gave me great delight.
