Also, let's stop calling #Disney's live-action re-dos "remakes" because they are demakes [en.wikipedia.org]: photorealistic-ish CGI is a less capable medium than other #animation styles. It was obvious with The Lion King but it's always true. The beauty of animation (be it "traditional" or #CGI) is the ability to depart from physical constraints to make characters more expressive and tell stories that would be impractical on film.

Restricting your storytelling to one of the least expressive artstyles out there cannot elevate the story, only weight it down with steel boots. Remember how much the novel animation style + expressive faces contributes to #Nimona and #KPopDemonHunters. The Disney style would have made them very dull.

Watching #Nimona again (middle kid's down from college and had not seen it yet)...

I forgot just how masterful the #animation is. The slow side-eyes, head turns, comedic interruption. The timing is just amazing. And blocking, and acting, and lighting...

The side of me that shapeshifts is, as a #trans person, life giving. And that's not a nihilistic or opportunistic thing. It's a dose of chaos magic that transcends prison walls when met, internal or external (and there's a number facing us all), on the journey towards self. Every transformation is the real me. And that epitomises the human condition. A fossilised state is not the real you either. You're a unique, unfolding journey. It's just that we have no alternative 💕🏳️‍⚧️

I knew absolutely nothing going in. I saw a clip on TikTok where #Nimona first meets Ballister, and she had a very funny "Bugs Bunny" vibe. That was enough to sell me on it.

So imagine my shock finding it's set in a "cyberpunk Camelot" of sorts.

And I had no idea about the shape-shifting element.

Interestingly the setting doesn't seem to add much to the story that couldn't have been done in a more traditional era. But it IS a refreshing and welcome twist.

The cast is quite good; Chloë Grace Moretz, especially, sells the chaos-maker-masking-deep-pain of it all.

The climax of the film really hit me hard, seeing this poor aching creature resorting to something I wouldn't have expected to see in an animated feature.

Excellent film, filled with a lot of heart.

My only real beef is the last couple seconds of the film. I'd have had much more respect if they'd left things on the note that it did. Much like Speilberg's "A.I.", it goes on a beat too long, unable to commit to a meaningful, melancholy ending. (Which is what dinged it a star, for me.)

Real good stuff, otherwise!

4.5/5
