Look at this 24 year difference in animation

It has come a long way

When I was a kid, the top picture looked just as good as the bottom picture


Also, I'm on a bit of a Toy Story kick right now..
Of all things

I remember on 🩶💀🤖, there was an episode that was so well done, it was starting to push the envelope of 'almost too real'.
And that was a few years ago.

Its amazing how good animation has got.

Im particularly loving the new 2.5D animation direction that is bringing 'art' and 'style type' back into it and adding creative uniqueness to animation.

Two that come mind are the Spiderverse movies and the Arcane series.

They blow me away.
Give me goosebumps they are just SO GOOD

@OogieBoogie love, death, and Robots?? Oh yeah, I still have to watch that. I haven't yet.

Yeah, stylized art is super cool. It's impressive to animate photo realistic images but it begins to all look the same. It'll plateau I think, it'll only get so good before it can't be improved anymore


Spiderverse looked super unique
@caPnAhab i think we've already reached the max point with animation realsim.

And AI has taken that over anyway.

Which.....i think is a good thing . It's bringing the 'art' back into it.
Which is what animation was all about in the first place.
Disney... Ghibli....it's all coming back to the artists vision and away from the technical perfection.

Not dissing Pixar... fucking LOVE Pixar💪....wish Disney hadn't bought them. But i think the organic is coming back into it.

@OogieBoogie I am not excited about AI, personally. Not really much organic about it

Mer.. I might just be misunderstanding you
@caPnAhab oh no....im not keen on AI either.

I meant artist driven animation, (like the two i mentioned). Where they rework the animation and add hand painted style over the top.

I think its a fabulous evolution of the art.

@OogieBoogie Okay good, we're on the same page.

I think it's ironic then that Ghibli's art style is used as a basis for AI to learn and regurgitate

That same art style. I'm sure you've seen it lol
@caPnAhab i dont think i have seen that.

Ive seen some AI shorts of animation....but it was more stuff like this

I like that AI can create wonderful pictures.... but i think the human 'realism' of it needs to be stopped ir capped somehow.

Its just that creepy uncanny valley shit.

There needs to be a compulsory visual 'stamp' ir watermark on it or something

@OogieBoogie ooh that cat gives me the creeps. I'll admit, AI can be fun but should definitely be regulated some how
@caPnAhab yeah...its kinda funny....but also ALLL WRONG atst😭
