CG Movie that is not fairy tale? - Blu-ray Forum

hendra · 05-28-2009, 10:12 PM

Is there any CG movie that is not fairy tale? It seems that all of them are fairy tales made for kids. A Bug's Life, Finding Nemo, Shrek etc. The PQ is perfect and fantastic with Blu-ray but I don't like them because fairy tale is not the type of genre that I would want to watch. When will we see CG movie that crosses another genre like horror, psychological thriller, drama, action or sci-fi?

the new resident evil one? I haven't seen it...

Final Fantasy is pretty much sci-fi

Beowulf...

Help me out here people

GLaDOS · 05-28-2009, 10:23 PM

Does Flight Of The Osiris (Animatrix) count? I can't think of anything else than that.

Oh, and how about Appleseed? That's a CGI movie mixed with anime styling.

stonkeye · 05-28-2009, 10:26 PM

The res evil one was not that good in fact compered to FF is was rubbish.

Other than Final Fantasy films i cant think of others apart from Manga but i think there more hand drawn novels than CG.

I don't consider some of them fairy tales, only the ones that were actually from fairy tale books. Things like Wall-E, finding nemo, cars, etc are not fairy tales. Shrek on the other hand is a fairy tale.

stonkeye · 05-28-2009, 10:31 PM

I was working on the assumption by fairytale he meant kids films.

I maybe wrong and generally am....

Agreed, but the term "fairy tale" is definitely a matter of semantics and can have different meaning from person to person.

To the OP: would you consider something like Transformers or Speed Racer to be non-fairy tale-ish? Lots of CG in those.

Or maybe some of the Matrix movies...

GLaDOS · 05-28-2009, 10:40 PM

Transformers is now a live-action movie, but Speed Racer counts.

stonkeye · 05-28-2009, 10:46 PM

Appleseed-exmachina not sure if its on blu-ray though

Minimejer05 · 05-28-2009, 10:53 PM

Beowulf is a fairy tale I believe..but not for kids. The unrated cut is worth checking out.

jw · 05-28-2009, 11:04 PM

TMNT is CGI, its make believe or thats what I have been told

Russell_L · 05-28-2009, 11:12 PM

Well, if you're talking about animated titles that are not aimed at children, there are:

Persepolis
Watchmen
Waltz with Bashir (coming soon)
Paprika

I'm sure there are more, but these are the first ones that came to mind....

steve_dave · 05-28-2009, 11:23 PM

Appleseed Ex Machina is on Blu-ray Disc and it has great picture and sound.

Pixar Short Film Collection

Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Both Final Fantasy films

Available on import Blu-ray Disc from Germany is Renaissance.

...We'll get Wall-E to clean up that last one.

GamerPS3-X360 · 05-29-2009, 12:28 AM

Resident Evil: Degeneration...Sci-Fi/Horror...Pretty decent and worth at least a rental...

JJ · 05-29-2009, 12:45 AM

Final Fantasy? Dead Space? Appleseed ex Machina was awesome.

SonOfArathorn · 05-29-2009, 04:18 AM

Weird how finding nemo is a fairy tale...

Fable maybe..

Fairy tale?

OhDamaso · 05-29-2009, 04:29 AM

Appleseed Ex Machina. Fantastic movie.
