They didn’t try and make all of the Pokemon resemble ‘real’ animals, they all look like themselves; lifted straight out of the games.

And it would have been EASY for them to just include Pokemon that only look like animals, but they’re also including the Pokemon with weirder designs, like Mr. Mime above, and Golurk, which is literally a rock golem

Now compare this to Sonic…

Sonic went too far in trying to make him a ‘real’ animal, resulting in him looking like a hairy little gremlin. He looks like a human wearing a costume…

Like, look at how Detective Pikachu designed Charmander

This comes from the D. Pikachu line of Pokemon cards btw

Now, what if they tried to make him a “real” animal, he’d end up looking something like..

You see the problem?

You made him a real animal, but he only looks like an approximation of what he’s supposed to look like… that’s why people hate the Sonic movie design so much and why you see so many people trying to fix it online.

There’s this weird fear that a distinctly cartoony design can’t work when you’re trying to put a CG character next to real people and that it HAS to look realistic… and that’s simply not true. it’s been PROVEN not true!

Detective Pikachu gets this, their designs are a perfect middle-ground between realistic and cartoon

this is it.

none of this “well a thing of cinnamon is $8 and each has 200 grams so a gram is like $0.4 and divided by four it’s really only $0.1 per serving.” no. spices cost money. if I have to buy a new spice, that’s more money. how much is one canister? that’s the price.

did I have to buy a new pot for this? how much did that cost?

do I need multiple pots? is there complex timing? do I need to set aside an hour to prep? all that costs money.

when you get fast food, the total price is right there. we can talk about how that total price is artificially deflated due to the exploitation of labor and the industrialization of food, but the fact remains that a ten-piece chicken nuggets meal at burger king is like $6, and making them yourself costs a lot in buying a whole thing of chicken plus flour plus eggs plus spices plus frying oil (not even counting that a meal comes with a side and a drink).
