LOL at the argument that Illumination or Dreamworks makes "cartoons" so it's a better fit vs Disney's "deep emotional" animated films.
Talk about a stretch. So is saying "cartoons" just another way to say shallow or slapstick or well... not as good of a film?
No. Both companies have highs and lows. Some are deep, some are surface layer fun. Minions, SLoP and the like are certainly surface layer- just as Madagascar and the majority of Dreamworks- but they also have HHTYD which is certainly deeper.
Then you have Disney- who, unless youre blinded by hatred of Disney, is clearly the winner of essentially all genres. They can have deep like an inside out, etc. But also surface like a wreck it ralph.
Illumination, Dreamworks, Disney and Pixar are all capable of making both "deep emotional" films as well as "cartoons" - whatever that even means.
There should be no debate on which studio has been kicking ass for a decade in it's animation. Hell, even Universal admitted it with their Dreamworks acquisition openly stating - in so many words - that they are now lined up to be the best animated studio behind Disney. So let's curb the fanboism.
So here's what we know:
-Nintendo now has a deal with Illumination
-It's great for park synergy
-I can't wait to see the movie
-Kubo and the Two Strings was robbed at the Oscars
