this movie drives me insane (in a good way), because in the same way people were surprised that Spider-Verse 1 was 3D, everyone was surprised Klaus was 2D.
those two films did so much to pioneer new visual looks of their respective mediums, and i wish Klaus got more credit for what it did.

Comparison. The HD Collection one isn't a direct feed screenshot, but it frankly wouldn't help.
#2 is the PS1 version on PS5.
#3 is that version with the "Classic Arcade" screen filter

Loaded up the Grandia HD Collection to compare it to the PS1 Classics version.
I had to zoom in on just how much every bit of this bothers me. The mishmash of quality in every element. You can see the border cut through his eyes... and even a bit of the BACKGROUND peeks through.

Genuinely trying to figure out why when the return of streaming would be far worse than theatrical.
You're telling me that one of the most highly rated, beloved, tv shows with a fandom still kicking, that would pay money to see this, at a time when animated films are doing stellar, is not worth it?

“It turns out that banishing the slur from public discourse was, in fact, important. Because now it’s back and it turns out that it does matter when subtext becomes actual text, when terrible people enable open hatred and bigotry, encouraging others to emulate them, degrading us all.”
Perry: The return of the r-word
"These days, the r-word slur has become a staple of the American right wing, uttered with few professional or social consequences," David M. Perry writes.

Bari’s complaint was “there’s nothing new here” and while that’s untrue it’s also irrelevant
“we intentionally sent people to be tortured in a hellhole and bragged about it and The Hague is too good for everyone involved” is a story that simply cannot be told enough

Obviously, this is amazing BUT the thing I love most, is that it's directly poking fun at the desire/fetish to overanimate overlapping action & smears.
Asking someone of James Baxter's calibre to *intentionally* do this (as well as mess up the spacing on a bounce) is funny in the nerdiest way.
