neutral · AI labelView post →Random thought here: Compared to a lot of similar characters like her, I feel that Susan Murphy aka Ginormica, in DreamWorks' Monsters Vs. Aliens works so well as a giantess protagonist because of how relatable she is to the audiences watching the film for a few different reasons. (1/7)
neutral · AI labelView post →Monsters vs. Aliens (2009) I adore this movie, it's up there as one of Dreamworks' funniest animated films and not a single joke in it is unfunny. It's quite by the numbers in terms of plot but the comedy, characters and voice cast more than make for that.
positive · AI labelView post →I've only seen it once or twice, years ago, but I still don't think I've ever seen a movie that comes as close to being as profoundly empty as Monsters vs. Aliens. That movie just conveys SUCH large spaces, with SO few living beings in them, it just feels very... off, on a fundamental level.
negative · AI labelView post →Is it bad to say that I kinda agree with Stella's take here? Apologies to my fellow Zillennials and my Gen Z youts who might have actual affection for the film (besides getting *awakened* by a particular poster advertising its French dub when she was 12), but Monsters Vs. Aliens wasn't all that...
negative · AI labelView post →I think Big Hero 6 has sort of become Disney's equivalent to Monsters vs. Aliens. A solid movie that's gotten good representation from video games and even a TV show and shorts, but still overshadowed by being released in-between more popular films and never got a legitimate sequel to this day
neutral · AI labelView post →🧌NEW VIDEO👽 DreamWorks and Nickelodeon worked together to co-produce a few series of shows based on DreamWorks movie properties... but Monsters vs. Aliens was their last... let's talk about that! Video Here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uqzm...
neutral · AI labelView post →I've heard a lot of different comparisons to deride the N.Sane/Nitro-Fueled art style, namely the character models, but IMO there's only one that’s correct: They look like C-tier DreamWorks films from the mid to late aughts like Monsters vs Aliens and Bee Movie.
negative · AI labelView post →Monsters vs Aliens (2009) Found this pretty entertaining actually. The antagonist is kinda lame as hell but the main cast carries enough to get past that. I really appreciate Ginormica actually, a lesser movie woulda had her take heavy backseat to the other monsters. It was nice.
positive · AI labelView post →Monsters vs Aliens is another standalone DreamWorks film this time with classic B-movie monsters facing off an alien invasion. A human girl named Susan (Reese Witherspoon) becomes a giant woman, and is placed in a secret government program with other monsters to what else, fight off evil aliens.
neutral · AI labelView post →And speaking of Katzenberg: I am sure others have commented on this, I know Animat has, but seeing how Lord Farquaad was modeled after former Disney head Michael Eisner, did the team behind Monsters vs. Aliens intentionally design Gallaxhar, the villain of the movie, to look like Jeffrey?
neutral · AI labelView post →I realize the real case is far more serious but all I can picture is this scene from the Dreamworks movie Monsters Vs Aliens

positive · AI labelView post →That reminds me, on the plane ride here I watched the animated Super Mario Bros movie and Monsters vs Aliens for 1st time SMB: it was aggressively okay. Competently paint-by-numbers. MvA: really weird and fun? Now I'm upset I hadnt seen it sooner

neutral · AI labelView post →With the Boss Baby: Back in Business airing tonight, this will be just the fourth series based on a Dreamworks movie franchise to air on Nickelodeon, after The Penguins of Madagascar (2008-2015), Kung Fu Panda LOA (2011-2016), and Monsters vs Aliens (2013-2014).
neutral · AI labelView post →It will never fail to entertain me that when SFGate reviewed the Tesla Diner the film playing in it's drive-in theater was Monsters vs. Aliens. Aka the film where Colbert Report-era Stephen Colbert is the president.

neutral · AI labelView post →Monsters vs Aliens was a movie I thought was a fever dream I imagined as a kid until people starting bringing it up again. I need to rewatch it, I don't remember anything about it except for the slime guy (and I'm 99% sure that's because of this meme)

Conrad Vernon, Rob Letterman Once Susan becomes gigantic after coming in contact with meteor gunk, she and a team of misfit monsters battle an alien invasion. The first film produced in the stereoscopic 3D format.
neutral · AI labelView post →Yeah, I do like the first CWACOM, (I agree with him on the second one though), and Monsters vs Aliens which he also considered a bad 2009 animated film is honestly a guilty pleasure like Shark Tale.
neutral · AI labelView post →Heard the guy who scammed him for the fake Monsters Vs Aliens 2 movie is apparently part of the "Pooh's Adventures" fandom, and the idea of getting scammed out of your money by someone like that is frickin hilarious.

neutral · AI labelView post →He already played the role of POTUS in the 2009 classic movie Monsters Vs. Aliens, him doing it for real would be a pretty amusing coda to that.

positive · AI labelView post →You may have a differing and very wrong opinion, but for me, Kiefer's best role in any film or show that he's done, is that of W.R. Monger in the highly underrated and preposterously unsequelled Monsters Vs Aliens www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lq1...
positive · AI labelView post →Ugh... I just realized I need to say "this is not AI, this is from Monsters Vs Aliens - a real movie. A really GOOD movie"
positive · AI labelView post →Sorry dog but I watched Monsters Vs Aliens and it did nothing for me. It had one memorable line in the entire movie and Rainn Wilson was in it
negative · AI labelView post →I wouldn't call Monsters Vs. Aliens a good movie, but the size stuff was pretty good

positive · AI labelView post →You know the movie Monsters Vs Aliens, right at the start when the UFO is detected and the UFO monitoring station guy is like, "That's not supposed to happen! I only took this job because aliens never actually show up!"? That's how Dems are with the arrival of fascism.

A flip phone, an ipod, and a CD player would be on the desk, too. Teck Decks and Legos would be scattered across the floor. VCR on the TV stand with box full of CDs--store bought, rented from Netflix (back when they used mail out movies in CDs), and self- burned/pirated CDs. (Good) Disney and DreamWorks movies would…

negative · AI labelView post →I’d fight for Giganta from Monsters Vs Aliens to be on there. Sure, she’s a riff of the 50 woman, but I also know Aot50W didn’t have a kiss like that movie did that may or may not have had EFFECTS on young minds.

positive · AI labelView post →103: Monsters vs. Aliens 🔁 i think if this concept had been executed like 10 to 15 years later and leaned way harder into the B-movie pastiche element of it all, it could have been something? as it is, feels like a weird diagonal branch between Bee Movie and Megamind on the DreamWorks family tree
neutral · AI labelView post →The 2019 Addams Family incarnation of films feel like a Despicable Me film or any Illumination film. The directors -Greg Tiernan and Conrad Vernon-previously directed Sausage Party and the latter did Monsters Vs Aliens and an executive producer on Wylde Pak.
