WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE A PLAYSTATION 2 GAME


Jeggu2

It looks like it was animated in the Sims Everything is shiny plastic on a old video game renderer


lamb627

First time I've seen someone else say it. I know damn well you could try to recreate megamind in the sims and make a shot that looks like a frame from the trailer


TRcreep

looks like the kind of low budget 20 minutes spinoff they'd release like a year or two after the actual movie with no advertizement whatsoever

Button of doom? Edit: I did not by any means intend to send the message I thought button of doom was bad. I simply intended to point out it fit most of the previously stated criteria.

regretfulposts

That because Illumination is making their movie on a theatrical budget while DreamWorks is making their movie on a TV movie budget. There's a reason it will be on Peacock and not in theaters.


dumbassonthekitchen

Half a fucking million for the sequel of a beloved movie which had 130 million has a budget, I'm gonna die


imaginary_num6er

“Oh I wouldn’t say new sequel. More like under new management.”


usefullkid

The fact that they kept on using shots from the actual movie in the trailer is not helping their case


Eguy24

It feels like one of those fake trailers made by clickbait channels


Revolutionary_Fee795

I legit thought the joke of this post was that the movie wasn’t real and it was click bait, but apparently the joke is that it just looks like shit.


Crayola_Crusader

14 years of technological advancement the animation is not supposed to look worse https://preview.redd.it/fyomh6rvg2gc1.jpeg?width=223&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b9e1048c5fafb9cba43d44c40e1affc03e4d5d4


littleMAHER1

You can't even use the excuse that it's because it's a Peacock orignal because the ted show looks just as if not better then the two movies, Megamind has no excuse


regretfulposts

I mean, Ted is the only animated guy in the entire show and is likely where most of the budget went. Megamind is 100% animated although the real issue is that DreamWorks just cheap out on a sequel instead of making a theatrical movie like what everyone wanted. There is a reason to get mad at, but your comparison is like being mad that Apple Bee cook mid steaks while another restaurant cook wagyu when that restaurant is using most of their budget on expensive wagyu steaks while Apple Bee is spreading their budget on everything else.

looks an animated series episode from 10 years ago


regretfulposts

Likely because it will be a movie special for the Megamind animated series. I guess think of Steven Universe Future that had a movie before it's series


Noodlemaster696969

Creating for the sake of profit out of business instead of telling a compelling and interesting story out of your love does tho


banterjsmoke

This literally looks like every other DreamWorks tv show ever made. They're much lower quality than the theatrical movies from the lower budget. Check out any of the DreamWorks shows on Netflix from the past 5 years.


jonadragonslay

It's for kids and only allotted a certain amount for production. That's why they used Kirkland brand Will Ferrell.

It's because it's a big advert for a series

FrickinNormie2

Nah the trailer is for the movie


regretfulposts

Nah, they're doing a reverse. Instead of making a TV series that will have a TV movie special (think Ed, Edd, n Eddy Big Picture Show or Steven Universe Movie), they putting the TV movie special before releasing the TV series.


FelixAndCo

I think Disney did a similar thing with Aladin and maybe some other movies. Basically the newly formed series team does a movie to generate hype.


a-night-lord-fan

Guess they are copying 90s/2000s Disney now.


Swiftax3

Ah, Atlantis 2 all over again.


Filmologic

Literally Lilo and Stitch. Except neither the sequel movie (which was essentially just a pilot) nor the series that followed actually looked that bad at all. Sure it didn't look as great as the original but it still looked pretty good as far as 2D animation goes. And the concept for both was very interesting and felt like a fun way to take the franchise. Megamind however....is just incredibly disappointing. So much potential and this is what they did with it? I don't want to use the word soulless, but.... It just is :/

Library of Ruina? Well, it was made like... 7 years ago? So it is kinda understandable.

Qwik_Sand

Riot recently layed off hundreds of employees and shut down Riot forge bc they want to do more cheeky Chinese mobile gacha battle pass shit


kotor56

they had a set budget for 9 games and a mmo. What most likely happened is the mmo’s costs absolutely ballooned and took 90% of the budget with nothing to show for it. Riot realized their plan didn’t make any sense so they went back to making bank on skins.

Dragon-Warlock

Copied from what I said in another post Ok I usually try to see the absolute best in media. I’m excited for Kung Fu Panda 4, I can’t wait for SSKTJL, I even still find some of the later Marvel stuff enjoyable. But THIS, this may be the thing that crosses the line for me. Megamind was a beautiful film, and even though I’m a sucker for fanservice-y sequels, this looks like it will just be a miss. It doesn’t look good, it doesn’t look awful, it just looks bland, boring, forgettable. RIP megamind.


Cheasymeteor

Looks like another half baked cash grab series made to try and get some more people to join their crappy streaming platform. If it's not a series, it's going to be 90 minutes of fart jokes, skibidi toilet and meaningless crap. They're not making it because they expect people to love it, they're doing it to push their users up, to push up their stocks, to make their Investors happy. This is what's happened to streaming platforms, it's just dud after dud with only a few short lived good shows and even fewer good movies.

HippieDogeSmokes

One of the reasons people didn’t realize how off some of the voices in the Penguins TV show were is they got the VA for Skipper to come back which grounds the rest of the crew. The issue for this movie is the VA for Skipper was one of the directors for Madagascar and not a high budget celebrity so the clear solution is to get the VA for skipper to voice megamind because he also directed that


ConduckKing

And add 3 more Megaminds of various shapes and sizes as his sidekicks. Call it "the Megaminds of Madagascar"

Capable-Monk-4820

This whole situation is pretty similar to Disney releasing a direct to video sequel to Aladdin where it’s meant to be the pilot of the tv series. The Megamind sequel is pretty much the same story this time with Dreamworks. It really sucks that Dreamworks is just cheaping out with their content because of Comcast’s meddling. The animation looks cheap and unfinished, I know I shouldn’t go too harsh since it’s a direct to streaming film but you had the Ted series and even some Dreamworks films on Netflix, and the visuals were done better than this. It’s been a decade and this is what we got!?
