For some reason, I get the feeling that this is going to be mediocre.
IMO an Animal Farm adaptation needs to be different and based on the casting this seems more like a typical animated production.
I hope I am wrong.
your instincts are probably on because it seems they’re casting stars not voice actors
Is just an overhyped kid’s book, lol. Is exactly what it needs to be. I’m sure Seth is gonna be a bad ass Napoleon.
It’s not a kids book, what are you on about?
Tbh they should be doing Animal Pound, the recent updated retelling of Animal Farm in comic form. Was actually really good.
I am open to fully novel interpretation that stray away from the original. Just make it feel different and unique.
Stray hehe. It’s good for sure, I hate remakes and recommend the comic!
Just looking at the visuals you can tell the tone is off. This is not a cutesy story with teacup pigs
It’s a classic, but not exactly what the world needs right now. The Orwell adaptation he should have done is 1984.

I wonder if the colonial cop could ever bring himself to hate Trump, were he alive today. Never quite managed it with Hitler. Had a lot of smoke for the guy who beat Hitler though. I’m sure those are unrelated. :thonk:
Yeah, I’m glad us leftists can agree that criticizing the people who beat Hitler - like Churchill and FDR, great men of history - is it self a damnable offense.
Idk I think leave this guy in the past. He’s a relic of the Cold War. We don’t need that propaganda anymore. There’s so many other, better dystopian fiction books out there that haven’t received their “definitive” adaptations, plus other more interesting original concepts people can do. Besides, maybe what people really need right now is people believing a better world is possible rather than accepting a crap one.
So we don’t even cast actual voice actors anymore?
Haven’t for a long time.
This sounds like a disaster.
i just listened to an audiobook version of this book & the cover art for it appeared to be ai generated so when i see this image i cant help but feel like its also ai generated.
So Seth Rogen is gonna be a pig who does his laugh all the time right?
As someone who absolutely adores the original animated film, I’m highly skeptical of this one already just by the fact they have to announce the “voice actors”. I just found out about it and it’s already on my “Do Not Watch” list.
This is satire right?
I love Andy Serkis. Listened to his audiobook ver of LOTR. Good stuff.
