    This is what I want to see, different and interesting animation styles. Also, Chloe Grace Moretz is perfect for this role.

    I was vey excited looking at the talent behind it and I’m glad the people could finish their movie but… Doesn’t look that good?

    Animation-wise it seems that Hollywood took “ITSV stylization” and they understand “Hey guys, now we don’t even have to wait to actually render these things” and story-wise… That trope of the princess hasn’t been a thing for 40+ years so not really a subversion?

    I’m just happy Netlfix saved this. It looks great and hopefully holds to the standard of the comic. Which is really damn good.

    Had no idea this was coming so soon.

    Lot of influence from Patrick Osborne though he left thr project a while ago, you can still see hownthis builds on thr visual style of Feast.

    Wild how huch Spider-verse convinced thr industry thst other styles were possible.

    Holy shit! My first thought was “Wait, *that* Nimona? *Couldn’t be*.” And then the shapeshifting.

    I read this comic ages ago as it was being self-published on the author’s website. Always loved it, loved the cohesive narrative and characters and genuinely well done ending, which was very rare for a period of indie comics that either never made it past the first act or often just went on forever with meandering non-plots. Absolutely wild to see it suddenly appear again as a completely new project.

    Nimona is up there with Bone. A generation later, but the exact same type of work genuinely pushing the space (for Bone, indie publishing, for Nimona, web comics) and succeeding.

    Took me a while to warm up but by the end of the trailer, I was all in. I’m a sucker for a shape changer.

    In a year where Pixar’s latest film looks awful, Netflix is still sending this one directly to streaming?!? I’m keeping my expectations low.

    Had the chance to watch this a month ago, it’s surprisingly good. Initially the character of Nimona can come off a bit too edgy but as the film goes on she becomes a lot more likeable. The animation style may come off a bit generic but I still think it’s more unique than what Disney and Pixar have been putting out in recent years. The jokes mostly land and you can tell the film in general has a lot of heart. The right will certainly claim the film is “woke” but they can certainly go fuck a porcupine.

    Is this a film I personally would watch again? No, though animated films aren’t my cup of tea anyway. Do I regret watching it? No, it was a lot of fun and I think DNEG Animation and Blue Sky did a great job. It’s a shame it’s not getting even a brief release in theatres.

    I have known about this film for some time after it got shelved. So far it looks pretty interesting. Definitely going to check it out.

    I’m so happy that after two decades studios are finally over the Disney/Pixar animation style and we are getting innovation like Into the Spider-Verse, Arcane and now this.

    /r/notlikeothergirls the movie. I’m in.

    this feels like it would have been cooler in 2008 or something.
