Re: Big Hero 6

Finally saw the film Thursday. SO GOOD. I love it more than Frozen (which I merely liked) and I think I might place it just above Wreck-It Ralph (which I did absolutely love).

Okay, on to my spoiler-y thoughts.

Spoiler Show

TADASHI ;A;

I wish Gogo, Wasabi, Honey Lemon, and Fred had more prominent roles, for what scenes they were in they were perfect. The affection they felt for Hiro was really strong and they were great support to him when he didn't realize he needed it.

A problem I had, besides their lack of presence, was that their friendship was developed in a fast-forward montage. I wouldn't have wanted them to have wasted time developing it, instead I would have preferred them knowing each other before because I find it impossible Tadashi had been their best friend for so long and had never brought them home or over to the cafe.

Of course, that would have meant introducing us to them in a different way but yeaaah. Whatever.

(My whole wardrobe is going to be modeled after Honey Lemon's)

TADASHI ;~; It's always the good ones who die.

Baymax was too cute. I love Baymax. I teared up at least 3 times during the entire film because of Tadashi and Baymax killin' me softly with being perfect characters. The third time I teared up, my eye started burning from dry eye so it turned into actual crying I had no intention of doing and my friend was laughing at me. No regrets, though!

The whole ending was ;~; From climax with the portal to the ending when Hiro remade Baymax...;~; Just wish we knew what happened with red herring guy and Callahan.

ALSO STAN LEE FUCK YES.

Re: Big Hero 6

So what did you guys think of the villain?

I actually really liked that the movie gave him some geniune depth and dimension. He wanted revenge on the man responsible for his daughter's supposed death, which is actually sympathetic motivationMuch more than most of the other Disney villains. A huge step up from Hans, LOl

Re: Big Hero 6

I saw the movie a couple weeks back and was actually going to write a review on it, but I saw it half asleep and was on auto-pilot for a good chunk of it. I remember liking it, though some parts are a bit fuzzy.

I don't remember how I felt about the villain, lol. I think I liked him well enough though, I just have to see the movie again or wrack my brain for a while.

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long,
And live with me forever now,
Pull the blackout curtains down,
Just not for long, for long,
Because we could be immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals

The villain was okay. I agree he was a step above Hans. I don't think he is memorable by any means, though. He was still missing something and I can't pinpoint what. I think it is tied to the fact that Tadashi was an unknowing victim of his revenge due to a freak accident and I don't like that since Tadashi was great haha of course death doesn't need to have a reason to happen...Death rarely makes sense.

I did like that Callahan had a motive that the audience could feel for, but in the end I doubt many left the theater caring about him or his daughter.

Re: Big Hero 6

I've seen this twice now and both times were great. Really love how fleshed out and alive San Fransokyo felt.

Re: Big Hero 6

Whenever I see early concept art of Big Hero 6, I get sad because I think what a badass kids film BH6 could have been.

Re: Big Hero 6

I thought it was fantastic. Parroting what everyone else has already said, my only complaint was that the other 4 'heroes' didn't get enough screen time or development. What they did do though, they did very well. It was well paced, I didn't get bored in any scenes and it ended at the right time. I wouldn't be adverse to a sequel by any means (and for the love of all that is holy please don't let there be a Frozen 2. I love Frozen, but it needs to stop now).

For me personally, it's on the same level as Wreck-it-Ralph. Fun, cute and emotional. I really did enjoy it, and I think Baymax would make an awesome summon.

Re: Big Hero 6

it was a great movie. plot was pretty predictable but everything else was on the ball, pmuch a visual and musical treat that kids will love the shit out of. probably a little bit over-hyped but if we're going by that category it was as good, if not, better than frozen.

Re: Big Hero 6

Finally saw this movie after months of wanting to. I loved it! I'm really hoping for a sequel, because this was the perfect setup for another film. It would be the best opportunity for fleshing out the other characters, especially after that post credits scene. I felt it was fine for them to be more on the side since this was Hiro's story and essentially the origin story for the group.

Re: Big Hero 6

BluRay comes out this Tuesday, so pumped to see it again. None of my friends have seen it since they're wieners so we're thinking of having a viewing party sometime

EDIT: This and Feast just won the Oscar for best animated film and short

Re: Big Hero 6

I finally got paid and got to buy it yesterday. Actually...I watched it twice today. I'm so obsessed with the fist bump that it's my notification tone! XD

In liew of how much I loved the movie back in fall, I designed a Baymax amigurumi to sell at a recent convention in my state. Here's a couple pics of him. HE'S TOTALLY HUGGABLE AND SOFT. Workin on a self-warming one, naturally~ (ok, that's sort've a lie but a fantastic idea XD)

Thank you very much! He was a big hit, though I got a lot of folks asking why I didn't make armor for him. Hahaha, they're funny :3
I've also got buttons for a mini version, but I've yet to buy the yarn for that...I'm not very consistent XD

My mom actually liked the movie, which was odd because she's really disliked the recent ones by Disney and she was so skeptical of it in the first place. I get a good laugh every time there's a recurring joke, but this movie was serious, too. The theme of loss was a heavy one to choose, and being able to connect with Hiro emotionally was such a treat. I hope they make another and flesh out his team/friends.

I watched the bonus features and they actually admitted to having difficulty fleshing out the other characters because of all the different character relationships going on.

No problem!

I honestly think this is a great idea and would sell really well.

Re: Big Hero 6

Big Hero 6 was a big(sorry for the pun) surprise for me, I even think it's better than Frozen

I liked the characters and their interactions, the emotional tone of the movie: Baymax love X Hiro vengeance X Big Hero 6 Friendship.

The animation is top notch, great soundtrack and I can' find anything bad of the movie or any favorite scene because all of the scenes were magical to me.

Its great to see more people who enjoyed Big Hero 6. It has the makings for something even greater, which is why I really hope Disney announces a sequel for it.

Seconded! It's so cute!

Re: Big Hero 6

Thank you all for the compliments~ Perhaps I'll get an Etsy sometime and sell things like that online. I just gave that Baymax to my local GameStop manager for free. He's a huge fan, and he held one of the Majora's Mask NewDS consoles for me when they shipped extra a couple days ago. I was quite satisfied with my care~!

Anyway, back on topic. Hehehe. What did you guys think of San Fransokyo? I've been meaning to ask this for a while now. I mean, I myself loved it but one of my good friends who really loves the movie thought it was pretty but a terrible idea. She won't really tell me why. And my dad JUST said "Oh, looks like the Japanese finally took us over." I mean COME ON. What a jerk.

Re: Big Hero 6

I thought San Fransokyo looked awesome. Just the kind of place I'd want to live.

Re: Big Hero 6

I loved the idea of merging east and west culture. I'd totally move to San Fransokyo if it existed
