i finally saw that "triplets of belleville" film. what the hell is the deal with all the big noses ?.

European cartoons frequently have characters that look misshapen or have big noses...it's a stylistic thing I think. Kinda like UPA in the 40's and 50's. It doesn't surprise me that much since back when I lived in Israel and we barely had any TV, (no joke) one of the few things we did get were these weird cartoons from Europe. And they ALL looked like Triplets of Bellville.

**For a stylistic parody of Euro cartoons, check out The Simpsons "Worker and Parasite" montage from "Krusty Gets Kancelled"!

Maybe it's rebelling anime, whose humans have no nose at all?

Christophe Hery who's one of the niced humans that God ever made, has no noticable nasal dominance. my jaw is oversized. i write that off to excessive Heinz Noodle Numbers as a kid though. it was before the time of resveritrol and lycopyne. Swiss Chalet was considered a healthy Sunday dinner, ya see.
anyhow, the colour was beautiful though the God damn film dragged. i wanted to join in the Amercian confusion as to why other people liked it because it was foreign and slow but couldn't get over the nose problem and the rotoed computer graphic bikes and toy trains. (i really hope in the future people don't roto anymore cg to look cel; it shows boys). bloody depressing given Mon Oncle and Amélie. whatever, what the hell do i know. i can still recite the entire Smokey and the Bandit movie every time it comes on. Over The Hedge looks hysterical and original. nice goin Tim. i remember Timmy boy when he was still at Post Effects in Chicago. i was at Alias and Post Effects was one of the only places that had Alias. Tim you still ride'n bikes ?

Spaz, we're talking about "The Wild". You of all people should know that, right?

Decidedly so, Spaz. Decidedly so.

Is Spaz at all worried that his film will quite possibly be crushed by the box office giant that "Ice Age 2" is becoming?

Post by **Meg** » April 2nd, 2006, 9:04 pm

It'll probably die down by April 14th...

Yeah, but even if shows just modest legs, it should still make around $15M on that weekend, which is roughly what I'm predicting "The Wild" will open to.
