    Help me choose between a kiddie movie and a grown up one. Kiddies would either be zootrapilis 2 or Tafiti. Grown up undecided.

    Considering the rise of furry rock band media, whether in animated movies or comics, seems with the emergence of a new furry rock band animated movie in Billie Beat (from the same studio behind Tafiti: Across the Desert), quoting a friend of mine, "All roads lead to Rock Dog."

    A few years ago they made a Disney movie that featured his lady cousin, Tafiti. She was basically a sentient island. The theory tracks

    #2026inanimation From the country that brought us the oldest surviving animated feature ever, and also the excellent film Felidae, comes a pile of mush called Tafiti: Across the Desert. The plot is weirdly similar to Skydance’s new animated movie Swapped, but visually Tafiti is so dull and ugly.

    I should be not liking Tafiti: Across the Desert, given this is yet another German family-friendly foreign CG animated movie that should be sufferable, but there is enough charm and humour to make it tolerable. #BlazikersAnimationAdventure

    Tafiti: Across the Desert, in theaters this Friday, may look like Dollar Store Timon and Pumbaa, but it has some solid laughs and cute critters up its sleeve. It's nothing to write home about, but kids will likely enjoy it. greatlinesbeautifullines.blogspot.com/2026/01/tafi...
