The movie that killed 2d animation for DreamWorks

Have you ever wondered why DreamWorks stopped making 2D animated movies? In this short video, we'll explore the answer and discover how the movie Sinbad Legend of the Seven Seas played a significant role in the decision. Join us as we dive into the box office flop that caused DreamWorks to lose over $125 million and ultimately led them to shift solely to 3D animated films.

    As a kid when it came out, we were all fatigued from half baked, half adult adventure movies. Tarzan, Atlantis, Treasure Planet, Quest for Camelot, Prince of Egypt, El Dorado... then Emperor's New Groove put a twist on the trope but man, every movie was the same thing. And then we got Sinbad, another cultural legend rewritten, and after what Disney bastardized into Hercules? None of us were interested. Bland looking characters with the same Dreamworks face, a washed out palette, and 2D and 3D that did not blend whatsoever... it looked like El Dorado's cheap sequal in the ads. Oh, and 9/11 played into the whole anti- Middle East thing. The movie that changed it all up was Lilo and Stitch, not Sinbad and the sexy lady goddess and the sexy lady wearing pants in a historical setting smh...

    Critics do have some affect on the movie's sales but it's not a Critic says good, we buy Critic says bad, we dont buy Situation The box office flop can be contributed to 1. The change of focus to 3d animation from the masses 2. The costs associated with 2d animation outweighing the benefits 3. Competition in the market around the time of release 4. The movie itself is nice but it is not memorable ie it is not one of those animated films you need to see so people did just that, not see it

    The difference is in the $$ invested, the greater the amount invested in the budget, the more frames drawn are dedicated to animation, the current 2D animations for TV use a smaller budget and therefore shorter and simpler movements. That's why 2D animations have reduced so much in the West, because 3D is much easier to make and invest in, while the East gave in partially by merging 2D and 3D to make productions cheaper.

    @@sissysovereign1294 For those that don't appreciate animation as an art form, 2D animation is synonymous with children's entertainment, plus is a Princess Film, It says so in the title, and the trailers and marketing emphasized it's romantic and whimsical elements as Disney's triumphant return to classic fairy tales. Most people that aren't animation fans probably thought that is just a movie for little girls and ignored it completely. Tangled avoided all of that not just by being 3D (Which Shrek cemented as the golden standard for animated movies forr all ages) but also by changing it's title from "Rapunzel" (A princess) to "Tangled" which sounds gemder neutral and more dynamic. The trailers heavily emphasized Flint Ryder and Maximus as protagonists of equal footing to Rapunzel and they overly emphasized the comedic aspects while downplaying the romance and classoc fairy tale tropes. All of that made the movie look more like Shrek that anything else, like it's this wacky rapid fire parody of Disney Tropes but in reality is in fact just a classoc Disney Fairytale Princess romance movies played entirely straight.

    With the acclaimed release of Toy Story in 1995, Traditional 2D animation was already on it's way out by the end of the 20th century. DreamWorks had done two CGI movies (Antz and Shrek) by the time they released Sinbad. It's poor reception was the final nail in the coffin for their work with 2D animation, and from that point on their movies were either CGI or stop-motion. It's also worth noting that Shrek is the first CGI film to win the academy award for Best Animated Feature, so that probably helped convince some executives that CGI was truly the way forward.

    ​​@@zandriabeasley9626 Personally, I don't think it was about race. Disney has a very well tested formula for their princesses and Tiana was not their typical princess. That's why teens and adults loved her, but she didn't sell as much to kids as the other two you mentioned (and that's where the big $ lie). ✓Hair & Clothes: Tiana became princess in the very last scene and kids didn't get to see her long in her "princess form". Before that she was a hard working girl, with normal clothes and hair (she didn't get the "Disney's fabulously long hair" thing 😂) and then a frog. ✓Setting: Tiana's story wasn't set in an old fairytale land, it was set in a realistic place. ✓Super powers: I mean magical hair and ice powers?? How can you compete with that when it comes to children? ✓Catchy princess pop song or ballad: "Almost there" didn't really stand out as the main heroine's song (generally, besides "friends on the other side", the film doesn't have very strong memorable songs). That's a big miss for the little ones. That's why she didn't have the same merch success and impact that tangled and frozen had. And that's why kids couldn't become obsessed with her. Moana, who isn't white, ticked all these boxes and was a huge success and a kid's favourite.

    Sinbad is one of the greatest movies Dreamworks has every made and it’s just a beautifully animated movie in general. It’s one of the first movies that includes 2 and 3D animations during the monster fights- just like Disney’s Hercules so they were already planning to slowly movie away from 2D by adding little experiments in their 2D animation to test the waters. Problem was Pirates of the Caribbean got released first or closely with Sinbad, so everyone was paying to see “real” pirates and “real” action vs more animation. So they did 3D animation to look more “real” than the regular 2D animation Disney was putting out, still fit and blend in with more of the real live action movies while still being differentiated from Disney, it was a new advancement which saved time during the animation process, and it was cheaper to hire animators vs a whole crew, set, actors and make live action movies. Rise of the Guardians was a 3D animated movie that flopped (unfortunately idk how that happened) for Dreamworks but they still stick with 3D animation so it’s not really solely just the animation style per say that stopped Dreamworks from working on 2D movies- at least in Sinbad’s case, idk about Princess and the Frog since I adore that movie and didn’t even know it was considered a flop until now!

    That’s me with Pocahontas. I literally knew her real story as a kid before I actually watched the movie, and despite its not perfect, it’s still one of my absolute favorite movies ever. It’s really sad that a lot of critics f*cking complained about historical inaccuracies in a Disney movie, and unfortunately that’s manipulated Disney’s decision to make the sequel a bit more accurate to her real story by making her end up with the dude she married in reality. And the funniest but sad part is Disney KNEW Pocahontas ending with John Rolfe instead of John Smith was going to piss of a ton of fans, like they knew a lot of people would absolutely hate the movie. But they decided to anyway just to shut up the critics and very small minority that hated the original and complained about it. I will agree that Pocahontas shouldn’t have been based on a super dark and unfortunately real story, but if they had changed the characters’ names a lot less people wouldn’t have complained because the characters aren’t real or meant to represent real people. But a movie like Hercules has been growing in popularity lately and a lot of people simply ignore how inaccurate it is to the actual mythology, but Pocahontas isn’t treated the same way because she was still a real person.
