Warner Brothers' "Storks"

Warner Animation's getting back into theatrical stuff again.

Storks deliver babies…or at least they used to. Now they deliver packages for global internet giant Cornerstore.com. Junior, the company’s top delivery stork, is about to be promoted when he accidentally activates the Baby Making Machine, producing an adorable and wholly unauthorized baby girl. Desperate to deliver this bundle of trouble before the boss gets wise, Junior and his friend Tulip, the only human on Stork Mountain, race to make their first-ever baby drop – in a wild and revealing journey that could make more than one family whole and restore the storks’ true mission in the world.

O hai Dr. Frasier Crane Stork.

Jokes aside, that trailer actually made me chuckle a lot.

Not... bad.

The trailer is actually clever and funny.

So, we'll have wait to see.

You know, this kind of seems dumb... Bbbbbuuuuuuttttttt... This was the same studio that brought us the Lego Movie, and I thought it was a dumb idea as well until everyone said "Dude, this movie is incredible!".

So you know what? I'm holding off my judgement until I know more about it.

I like that the Stork has Teeth.

The synopsis just does not fill me with much hope. IT sounds stupid to me. Hopefully, it'll go over better than what the synopsis isn't doing for it, if only because Warner Bros. could use another victory like The Lego Move was for them (a very good movie, in my opinion, as well!).

New Web Browser, same old Shokew.

Didn't watch the trailer because I avoid trailers, but that summary sounds pretty amusing, I like it.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

"He has to have ninja skills!" made me chuckle.

This looks like it could be pretty good and cute movie so far.

That actually looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun. Loving the humor so far.

Oh, I thought Kelsey Grammer was going to be the main stork? Oh well, him being the CEO makes more sense, I guess.

Also, a Donald Trump looking Pigeon who's the main "antagonist"... That's both topical and unfortunate, because even if the Pigeon isn't a slimeball, him looking like Trump will cause a lot of hate to the character.

This is certainly looking good.

One of only two non-Disney animated trailers I've seen this year that look any good, along with Kubo of the Two Strings.

It isn't so much that the Stork Boss looks like Trump than Trump making himself a living caricature.

And yeah this looks fun, in a wacky way.

So the film is coming out later this week and there's like 9 reviews of it so far on Rotten Tomatoes (6 positive and 3 negative).

Why do all CG movies look the same now? Seriously, this is visually indistinguishable from Hotel Transylvania or The Secret Life Of Pets.

House style is a thing, sure, but why must that extend across companies?

Similar animators using a style they are familiar with,maybe?

[up][up]

Those two movies have really big differences once you get down to it. Illumination's style has a lot of angles and thin lines in it, and Sony's style with Hotel Transylvania is them doing a 3-D version of Genndy Tartakovsky's style (which is already anime styled enough), but the movements are more cartoony and over the top.

Lemme rephrase: everyone looks more like a stick compared to other CG movies.

Anyways, the Rotten Tomatoes score paints this movie as looking fairly divisive. Perhaps Warner Bros. has made their Hotel Transylvania.

I liked Hotel Transylvania. But even I was surprised it got a sequel.
