What went so wrong here ? How would you fix it ? There's so much kino stuff here ( setting, animation...

It wasn't X-rated. Fritz the Cat will live forever.

The climax was the most messed up thing I ever seen in a movie. Glad I didn’t see it as a child or I’d be terrified of cartoons.

I actualy have a bunch of them saved to my PC because I like them so much. I went through the film and took screenshots of any clear shots of the backgrounds I could get. I don't think I got them all, but they are by far the best thing about this movie. I'd pay good money just to have high quality pictures of all the backgrounds released.

I love how you watch the film and ask yourself "how could this get any more trippy ?" and then that mind fuck of a climax happens

just recast Brad Pitt with Nick Cage and you've got a masterpiece

I would take Ralph’s original idea and turn it into an episode of an anthology like Twilight Zone, Creepshow, or Love Death & Robots.

What was even the original idea about?
Something about a cartoonist fucking one his drawings and then his half-human/half-cartoon abomination daughter taking revenge on him for creating her?

Several issues here:

1) It immediately makes people think of Roger Rabbit. I would de-emphasise Brad Pitt holding a gun on the movie poster. As a result, it ends up being unappealing to adults who think this is a Mickey Mouse production and also to parents who won't take their children to see this in the cinema because there's a sexy girl on the poster. No audience!

2) It's a Ralph Bakshi film. Has there EVER been a Ralph Bakshi film that would appeal to a post-1970s stoner crowd? Perhaps the closest is American Pop. Bakshi does not make movies with mainstream appeal. Even if he had full creative control with a massive budget and a switched on production team, the film would still lack structure and feel all over the map.

3) Obvious studio meddling that took away the hook of the story. Namely, a creator having a child with his creation.

4) Kim Basinger is in the film and we don't even see her titties. We don't' even see cartoon nipples. Come on, man.

That's all.

The artist fucks his creation, and the resulting child becomes a serial killer because they aren't fully human or toon.
I figure maybe they would of had a detective trying to figure the case out as well.
Possibly like a darker Roger Rabbit.

>Kim Basinger is in the film and we don't even see her titties.
the biggest flaw of them all

>would of

School has failed you.

Has there ever been a geniunely good Bakshi film ? You know, something worth recommending nowdays ?

There was a Polish version???!!!

ggg

???

the animation was not up to par to be a good live action hybrid.

Bakshi also punched the executive producer in the mouth.

dude how fucking sad is your life that you continue to do this in these threads daily?

I think I've saw nearly all of Bakshi's work back in college when our campus film society ran an entire semester on his films. To be honest, I don't think there's a single one of his movies that ISN'T an incoherent mess. The man's a technically brilliant animator, but can't tell a story to save his life.

I love American Pop and I only saw it last year, so that's not nostalgia influencing my opinion at least.

Bakshi is fucking awesome. I have only seen Fire & Ice, Wizards and LOTR, but I really need to expand into his other stuff.

Yet he still shits on Pixar and Dreamworks for being corporate animation, saying that nothing great can come out of it

It was a great movie, but I could never quite get the hang of the video game.
