9 (the rag doll post-apocalypse)
Jun. 17th, 2012 07:27 pmSOGP bought a copy of the 2009 animated movie 9:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0472033/
It is visually very beautiful, and has a very different look from many of the big houses' animation style. Fresh.
Its story is really unfortunate. Rather than a plot with holes, this is a series of holes suspended in very beautiful visuals. The visuals are so good that I have been trying to figure out how to use the material of the film and recut it with new dialogue to make sense. It is such a shame that so much very good work was wasted on a crappy script.
It probably didn't help that "District 9" and "Nine" came out the same year, but even without that confusion, it was destined for the remaindered bin.
