Wolf’s Defining Shots

I can't fanthom to explain you in full how much of a significant moment this is in animation

You don't show blood in animated films, it's like almost a taboo thing. You can show characters getting beat up and bruised but never bleeding. It defies all corporate beliefs of making it a "kids movie". Even GDT's Pinocchio which has fucking nazis in it and guns shooting people never showed blood in it. It's just that sacred of a thing in animation that studios never cross.

But Puss in Boots, they showed it. Not only that, you get a fucking close up on it. Do you know how rare that is? The people who made it probably fought every tooth and nail to get this moment approved, because this is unprecedented in this industry. You don't show actual blood bleeding I cant stress how much this is such a nono in this industry.

But for this moment it's perfect, the inevitability of death in Puss in Boot's eyes, the amount of risk the studio took to get this moment in the film approved, shows how much DreamWorks really cares and wants this movie to not just be another haha kids film but for the adults watching it, the people who have seen the world and fear death, those with anxiety, get panic attacks, unsure about life the universe, getting married, being a family. These aren't ideas catered to kids.

Everytime I've seen people be like "oh studios need to stop making boring ass animations and actually make a film about serious topics and have better animation and care about the movie" THIS IS IT FOLKS. A STUDIO LISTENED AND IT'S OUT HERE IN YOUR FACE.

So seriously go watch Puss in Boots. It's incredible and you're missing out on something beautiful if you don't.

So I finally watched Puss in Boots 2....

[snovyda]

I have seen a lot of reviews for Puss in Boots: The Last Wish mention Jack Horner in the context of how refreshing it was to get a villain who is just bad, for once. Without any tragic backstory or anything.

I think it is actually deeper than just "refreshing" though.

I think that when we contrast him, in particular, with Perrito, who has an incredibly dark and tragic backstory and yet is still kind and caring to the world around him and other people he meets, we get an important message that we don't get enough of: kindness is a choice. And so is cruelty. No tragic backstory should excuse your horrible conscious actions. Your choices and your actions are your responsibility and your alone.

In an era when we have popular characters who commit mass genocide on planetary scales and their actions are somehow excused because their parents had gotten a divorce and their uncle was mean to them once, this is a crucial message to get. And a refreshing one indeed.

He's still my favorite fearless hero (Original under the cut)

You know, if it's the same to you, I think I'll just stick with "Perrito." I kind of like it, since that's what my friends call me.
