      Tighten before and after

      The plot is a lot like Avatar, but it's actually a bit earlier than Avatar.
      The beginning part is a bit long and dull, probably subject to investment, and the special effects have no surprises. However, the design of the big white whale feels good, including the Tairuo people have the characteristics of marine life.
      The whole story probably starts to get interesting in the part on the Earthship. Although it is a fixed routine, many plot designs are very exciting.

      A dilemma is a decision

      Sanskrit nairvedhika. It means to make a decision. That is, resolve all doubts with the holy wisdom without omission, and choose the equality of the Four Noble Truths.

      Surprised, I only saw this funny cartoon yesterday. The plot of the film is no different from the routine of most sci-fi films. It is all about the exhaustion of the earth's resources, and the last humans take a fleet to go on a long interstellar voyage to find a planet suitable for human settlement... .

      How long can this peace last?

      There is a happy ending at the end of the film, but I am a little pessimistic and don't hold much hope for this kind of peace. How long can it last? Probably a big question mark. All races are selfish, especially as a human being who has always claimed to be the master of everything, I am afraid that they will not be willing to become a race isolated in a hood. You
      might as well imagine the trend of the following things: In the first few years, decades or even centuries, the two races...

      Can you still believe in love and tolerance?

      I have been crying a lot lately. I don't know why
           this film is so fake. It's so fake. It's so real. When I was watching Tara, I was reading Yi Shu. And those who exist and live as an individual wish that the whole world would surround me wish that I was the only one in this world, I wish I was the only one in the world, I wish that all the young talents would be captivated by my smile and low eyebrows, Tara
            Ye How can I believe that you will help me unconditionally...

      the absoluteness of loyalty

      When I was sleepy, I was suddenly seduced by a very ethereal soundtrack.
      In fact, this type of animated film has the same level of sophistication under today's rendering technology. The difference is the ability to show and realize imagination. As far as this film is concerned, the visual depiction of aliens is still too traditional. The animals on the planet remind me of a whale in a Japanese animation, which is huge and makes people love it.
      The highlight of this film lies in the...

      It's like an animated version of Avatar. ....

    • By Verda 2022-03-28 09:01:12

      This film is a precursor to the invasion of alien planets by the earthlings, and it can be called a counterattack of "Independence Day". A few years before Avatar. Those human aircraft in intense aerial combat reminded me of the Crusades. In fact, at the end of the film, it is ironic that the kind-hearted aliens lead wolves into the house and place the dying human beings in their own homes. In the end, the greedy human beings will devour all resources...

      "If I am guilty, let the descendants accuse me. But remember, because of me, there will be descendants." I believe that if the general succeeds, no matter how many races are destroyed, he will still be honored as a hero by future...

      Did Avatar copy this movie? Too similar, right? The ending is just a pseudo-happy ending hidden under the veneer of peace. BTW, why should an animated film without a cute thing be made into an animated...

    Creative background

    In 2003, animator Aristomenis Tsirbas was told that "if you want to make an animated film outside of the studio system at the time, even if the animation is a low-cost alternative science fiction film, it is impossible." Sebass, who does not believe in evil, led a group of animators who also did not believe in evil to start making "Planet Tara" in his own home. They want to know if it is really "impossible to make an animation outside...

    3D production

    Now that you have already shot a 2D animated short film, why do you want to shoot another 3D movie? Sebas said that the reason for choosing the 3D expression method was because during the production process, it was discovered that if 2D animation was used, the planet Tairuo in his heart could not be expressed. Whether it is lighting or camera settings, I feel stretched. Especially the camera position problem. In 2D animation, the...

    Evaluation action

    "Battle for Terra" is an animated feature film made entirely on a home computer. The courage is absolutely commendable; however, the quality of the animation may not be comparable to the animation giants such as Pixar and DreamWorks. And don’t forget, this movie was made in 2007, even if it represents the latest animation production technology, it was the “new” technology two years ago... But then again, a movie is the most important...
