Another writer shared this m answer from legendary Simpsons writer John Swartzwelder & I’m sharing it as well. I read this interview when I was on Rick & Morty & every single thing I’ve written since then (comics, movies, TV, whatever) like this. Frankly its the only way to write imo

also, man that Pete Doctor quote
also taking a glance at what stuff was cut down through all the meddling did track with my suspicions I had with Half 1; Half 2 (WMM slowmo and a few other bits aside) feels the least meddled and most emotionally raw, while the stuff they cut out really left the first half harder to connect with
okay that did take me out a bit lmao
I don't think I've ever seen an animated film do that in a hot minute and it did stand as a bit jarring kjadljkasdklas
So I’m genuinely curious… Blender by now has the tools to make traditional animation within the software, has anyone been developing its own Deep Canvas (a Disney tool developed for Tarzan)? Where one paints backgrounds ontop of 3D assets and it is saved as seamless art?

Hoppers and Turning Red are 100% a star or two over it but fuck man, this one REALLY got to me
me going into Elio expecting it to be a mess from the mutters I heard about studio meddling and ending up being a blubbering wreck during the last twenty minutes:

President Trump’s new executive order attempts to restrict mail-in voting, which would make it more difficult for millions of people to cast a vote.
We’re taking him to court to protect our right to participate in our democracy.
Thomas stock in Canada right now for some reason:
The political history of the U.S. since the 1970s is basically that thing where a species' predator disappears and the species overpopulates and destroys the whole habitat. If centrists really wanted a "Normal" right, their top priority would be to bring back the left

Photoshop getting royally fudged on W11 more or less shelved a big thing I was prepping to work on after that
but hooo whenever I get it to work on here again
I'm going to do a separate thread about this at some point, but the short answer is that if you don't have a pre-existing, active fanbase before you start... then it's VERY hard to raise the funding you need to make indie animation.
