The series have likable characters, intelligent writing, humor and heart. What more could you want from a children's TV show (or any show for that matter)? I enjoyed the animation style too, because I really miss the traditional 2D animation. Don't get me wrong, I love 3D movies, with each new one in the cinema, the CGI gets more impressive and enjoyable and I would certainly miss them if they stop making them. It is just that traditional animation has its charm too and the number of 2D movies has gone significantly down in recent years. Anyway, in the case of Big Hero 6 nothing of the spirit of the original movie is lost in the transition to 2D TV show. And for those who are fond of cats, there are cute cats now and then in the background, the subtle (or less subtle) anti-cat attitude, other movies and shows love to indulge in, is completely absent from these series.
... View MoreOne of the few animations I was hooked on almost immediately upon watching was Big Hero 6, but this serialized version is horrible. The drawing style is too simplistic, the animation is choppy like it was some flash game, some of the voice actors are different, but all of them sound weird when they speak... there is unfortunately nothing to like about this version of Big Hero 6, at best you can tolerate a couple things, so it's a complete disappointment.You could argue that it looks like it does because of budget reasons, but more than 3 years passed since the movie and I don't think I need to go into great detail how much computer technology can progress in 3 years. Then there's Dreamworks Animation that creates very good serialized 3D animated cartoons (Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness, Dragons: Riders of Berk / Defenders of Berk / Race to the Edge, etc.), so I don't understand why a megacorporation such as Disney can't do the same with a serialized sequel, so it appears more similar to its predecessor.
... View MoreKids have to be realistic here, they can't expect the same animation quality for the series than the movie. Sure, the transition from the CGI of the film to the 2D animation of the series takes a little while to get used to but by the end it flows perfectly. And kids must understand appearance is not the only thing in a movie or a series. Big Hero 6 The Series feels like a sequel, the humor is there, the action is there, and most importantly the heart is there.
... View MoreThe animation is crap, the movie was so beautiful, but this? This reminds me of the direct-to-video sequels Disney made in the late 80's and 90's. I can not stand it. Why has it has to look like an 70's cartoon drawn in a sweatshop. There is no need for it too look this bad. As you can see I am disappointed because I love the movie and well.....aaaargh!
