I wish they had the budget to do proper 2d instead of cell shading 3d, or at least make the cell shading better.
Other than that, looks really fun and I'm looking forward for it.

Chip n’ Dale: Rescue Rangers | Official Trailer | Disney+

Maybe its a VR Chat joke. The premise seems to involve cartoon characters updating to "modern CG" but the joke immediately doesn't work when the "2d" characters are blatantly 3d.
Blame 21 Jump Street for self-aware reboots/comebacks lol
Don't think it's largely a budget thing for the cel-shaded characters since Flounder and others background characters are pretty clearly traditionally 2D animated. The workflow is probably much more attainable having the main characters be of the same medium since they interact alot in a live-action setting.
It's inconsistent, but the movie seems like a fever dream mess as is so *shrug*

Don't know if I care for this angle, but I'm all in since I love Chip and Dale and the original series...BUT, I think a 100% immediate improvement would be to just make Chip and Dale sound like Chip and Dale. Forget their "real" voices.
It is expensive to do what Roger Rabbit was doing. The brief 2d in this movie doesn't seem like its anywhere near that elaborate with the lighting or interacting with real objects. Has that drawn on a pc tablet look to it too.
Wow! Hey, look!
It's so many of the things that I knew from when I was a child person! Hah!

Okay, I'll give it a shot.

I don't think they are trying to emulate Roger Rabbit's style to a tee. Inspired by it, definitely, but as you said lighting and real-world interaction aren't there. With that in mind, I doubt they couldn't have Chip or Peter Pan in 2D at the quality of 2D we're seeing because of budget reasons. Creative decisions aren't always led by how much of a budget you can throw around.
This really should have just been a Chip and Dale flick and not tied to Rescue Rangers. Completely off tone.
Yup, Denmark as well.
Edit: Did not expect that. That was almost an "I'm going to a movie theater for this" moment.
I'm pumped for this. They're basically combining my favorite childhood show with one of the best films of all time (Roger Rabbit) and I'm digging all the different kinds of animation.
The cel shaded instead of 2D sucks but in the trailer it varies how noticeable it is, and I be it wasn't in the budget to do properly.
Going by the trailer, their 'normal' voices are ones they put on for tv. I can live with it.

ARE THEY EVEN CHIP AND DALE?
IT'S CHIP AND DALE NOT ADAM AND STEVE!1
Is the dwarf with the "weird dead eyes" a specific reference, or just a knock at bad CGI in general?
It's a knock on films heavy on the uncanny valley effect like Beowulf etc.
It's not Peter Pan though, it's someone named "Mean Dean"
Though tbf, I had no idea about the story of Peter Pan's original VA so I can see why this rubs people the wrong way but also I'm seeing people run with "Peter Pan's the bad guy!" and that's not right.
It's like Roger Rabbit, that means this Mean Dean is the guy who played Peter Pan
I figured he'd be an obsessed fan/cosplayer. You might be right though.
A reference to the mid-2000s era of motion capture cgi films. Beowulf, in particular.
Looks like I was right in my assumption that some sort of gestalt entity was made out of harvested Toon parts.
That claymation detective does have me wondering if Gumby's going to show up. Also I'd VERY much love to see Chip and Dale have to deal with Alvin, Simon, and Theodore at some point.
Also, I spy with my little eye, the hat of a Smurf amongst the harvested pieces.

Bad CGI in general, kinda a knock to that era. You can see it referenced more so at the end of the original teaser video.

It's not Peter Pan but it's a pretty uncomfortable association to know the tragic history behind Peter Pan's VA and then to see a character like Mean Dean who is meant to probably be the guy who played Peter Pan in this universe.
I think in this universe Peter Pan plays Peter Pan, as it seems Chip and Dale play Chip and Dale.
It seems like all the cameo characters are hand-drawn animated while main characters like Chip and that Peter Pan villain are cel-shaded CGI. It's obvious they cut back the budget on this thing. I bet cel-shaded chip was a stand-in while making the movie and they said "Eh. Good enough."
