Blue sky with no bright spots

Due to the acquisition of Fox, Blue Sky Studio is about to be merged into Disney, and Disney already owns two animation gold signs, the headquarters and Pixar. Since the Ice Age has been rotten, Blue Sky has been in the box office in recent years, and there are no awards for awards. It may no longer produce animated cartoons released by mainstream theaters, and "The Adventures of the Bull" is very likely to become Blue Sky's "posthumous work".
The film itself is fairly well-made, provided that you don’t compare it with Disney, the plot, rhythm, atmosphere, picture rendering, and music are nothing but surprises and surprises. It can be seen from the average score on Rotten Tomatoes and the MC score that the film belongs to A film of average quality, but fortunately, the entertainment is good, and some of the plots are quite funny, suitable for big friends and children to watch together. It should be noted that I have high requirements for animation pictures. Against the background of Travel Notes, I personally feel that the details and background of the film are very unreal. Disney can guarantee that each animation will invest more than 150 million US dollars, and Pixar has more than 180 million US dollars. In terms of technology, cartoons spend money and The comparison is obvious for no money.
Since this year is a small year for animation, "The Bull's Adventure" was nominated for the Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film, but "Dream Hunter" has an obvious lead, which has basically killed the suspense of this award.

    Three and a half. Another animation that mocks humans from the perspective of animals. The farm bull’s longing for the bullring and thinking of the "Xanadu" of "Escape from the Clone Island" is a scam that never returns. In the last paragraph, the change from bullfighting to bullfighting not only blacked out the cruel sport of bullfighting, but also maintained the dignity of the bullfighter to a certain extent. In the face of deliberately provoked anger and justified killings, the best way is to end the fight with peace. This is more interesting than watching the glacier squirrel being stupid

    An affirmative-action fairy tale that points directly to reality, from "escaping shameful but useful" to "non-violent, non-cooperative", Ferdinand, who is rigid on the outside and soft on the inside, tells us that the world should not be black and white, and the stereotype of a patriarchal society. All impressions are thrown away. Boys are not necessarily masculine and girls are not necessarily petty. There are third, fourth, and N paths between becoming beef cattle and bullfighting. @2018-01-21 21:08:29

Ferdinand quotes

  • Lupe: Don't just think of it as a fight. Think of it as a dance!

    Hans: A bull, dancing? Is this some kind of hilarious joke designed to make me laugh?

    Greta: You see, horses, we have the beautifulest legs for the dancing.

    Klaus: But bulls have short stubby legs.

    Hans: Ja, look at me.

    [waddles around on his knees and haunches]

    Hans: Moo, moo, moo!

    [the lipizzaner horses all laugh]

    Lupe: Go eat a schnitzel, you pasty-faced glue stick!

    Ferdinand: It's okay, Lupe. THey're right. I mean, how could a big clumsy bull ever do something like this!

    [does the flamenco dance Nina taught him]

    Lupe: Whoo! Check out my boy cutting a rug!

    Dos: That was good!

    Greta: You call that dancing? Nein! THIS is dancing!

    [They perform a polka]

    Angus: Three against one is hardly fair. Lupe, get my pipes!

    [Lupe plays various kazoos like bagpipes and he does a scottish reel]

    Angus: Well, put that in your kilts and smoke it!

    Greta: Don't celebrate yet, you rump roast! Try THIS!

    [the horses do a mix of ballet and gymnastics, ending by forming a heart with their heads and rumps]

    Bones: Oooh, I HATE those horses!

    Una: [Seeing where this is going, plugs in a boombox and puts on some hip-hop] It's showtime.

    Bones: I'm goin' in!

    [He joins in with a breakdance, and the three horses and three cows start an epic dance battle, which the horses are winning, until...]

    Maquina: Argh!

    [Joins in on the cow's side with robotic dance moves and the four do a grand synchronized finale, which the horses try to top but collide]

    Hans: Watch where you're stepping, dummkopf!

    Greta: Who are you calling dummkopf!

    Klaus: You have four left hooves!
