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.

Not sure why I never noticed with the last trailer but seems Chip and a lot of the other 2D characters are just 3D with cel shading? Now I can't unsee it and I don't think I like it. :|
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.
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.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.
Yup, Denmark as well.fun fact: in German we call them Chip n' Chap not Chip n' Dale
actually I think this might be for quite a few european countries
Going by the trailer, their 'normal' voices are ones they put on for tv. I can live with it.
It's a knock on films heavy on the uncanny valley effect like Beowulf etc.Is the dwarf with the "weird dead eyes" a specific reference, or just a knock at bad CGI in general?
I feel like perhaps we need to re-examine Peter Pan's role here…
It's like Roger Rabbit, that means this Mean Dean is the guy who played Peter PanIt'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.
I figured he'd be an obsessed fan/cosplayer. You might be right though.It's like Roger Rabbit, that means this Mean Dean is the guy who played Peter Pan
A reference to the mid-2000s era of motion capture cgi films. Beowulf, in particular.Is the dwarf with the "weird dead eyes" a specific reference, or just a knock at bad CGI in general?
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.Is the dwarf with the "weird dead eyes" a specific reference, or just a knock at bad CGI in general?
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.It's not Peter Pan though, it's someone named "Mean Dean"

I think in this universe Peter Pan plays Peter Pan, as it seems Chip and Dale play Chip and Dale.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.

The real villain has already been leaked. Its super dumb.Wouldn't it be wild if Roger Rabbit ended up being the secret villain?
Me too, just read his wiki.
Give us the deets.
Wow. You weren't kidding. This sounds stupid as fuck.
