I haven't seen a topic related to this movie and... given the interest in stopmotion around here thought a post might be in order.

 

I saw the film last week and thought it was a 'perfect' movie on many levels.

By perfect I mean so carefully crafted and finely detailed that I was completely captivated.

I was impressed by it's sense of originality and yet many elements of the familiar as well.

The story itself... well crafted.

 

There is a lot to talk about relative to 'Kubo' to include how computer modeling and animation drove their 3D printing) which continues to bring stopmotion into the digital age.

 

A side topic of interest to me is that of the physical aspects of stopmotion that picks up where 2D animation left off after losing it's physical artwork (the hand painted cels that became so collectible) when the process went digital.

 

Do I have any reservations regarding the movie? Always. ;)

But it's an impressive production.

 

There are a lot of 'making of Kubo' videos online and all have been well worth watching.

 

All in all 'Kubo and the Two Strings' looks like it was a lot of work and dare I say in this day and age... perhaps even a labor of love.

For it's over all presentation, craft and storytelling I think it deserving of many awards and honors.
