      Yes, the animation work is not the best out there,; however, Theevan still manages to outshine any hollywood superhero blockbuster by weaving a beautiful fantasy yet authentic story about unconditional love. The setting itself is, intentionally, ambiguous leaving its interpertation to the eye of the beholder. Even though we cannot hear the characters' voices/personality, the ethereal soundtrack does a wonderful job in filling the gaps with the help of the viewer's imagination.

    I love the symbolism and imagery within this exquisite piece of film. It's a tale of grief, love, and sorrow. Meeya right of the bat is distinctive from the rest of the bald cast. She represents a person with free spirits and big dreams. Theevans time riding the dragon shows he too has dreams, but they aren't nearly as complex as Mias. Her journey represents the naive belief that dreams can be accomplished, and the dragon that ultimately kills her down is the reality that dreams are meaningless and life is pointless. Alas, Meeeyah is dead and we see the gripping emotions within this film. Theevans inner turmoil is expertly shown on screen as he combats the goblins. And as fire inevitably turns them away, the expert director shows us that light and happiness can turn away any dark inner thoughts. But once theevan finally faces the dragon in the climax of this art, the true message is shown. That the harsh truth of reality cannot be ignored. Yerevan calls out miyas name shows his acceptance, that meeeha is dead and being angry at the world would not change that. That death is permanent and inevitable. Theevan gracefully walking of the cliff shows this fact, and makes the true theme apparent. Life is like a box of chocolates, its made in a factory and everything is carefully planned out and you have no control over what flavors are available. But you can dream. You can imagine. Which is why Tibetans enters the house at the end, he is picturing his perfect reality. Dreams, acceptance. I compliment the complexity of this film, especially the ending. It's impossible to interpret the true meaning of this masterpiece. It truely is an enigma. It will be immortalized amongst the greats and analyzed by up and coming directors for years to come.

    Unlike these blockbuster films, Teevan actually contains substance, Here we have a strong comprehensive plot with amazing pacing, the characters are not ONLY relatable but progress wonderfully throughout this film. That aside, if the heart wrenching story did not catch you then maybe the animators eye shall?
    The lighting is absolutely phenomenal, stunning work honestly.
    I haven't seen anything this complex, yet easy to comprehend for my feeble mind. The animation is smooth and honestly appealing.
    I could go on about this but I'm running out of time.
    In conclusion to this comment, I will state that this is perhaps the BEST film to ever been made.

      My only complaint is that we didn't get to see Theevan's penis at any point. I feel like it really would have contributed to the film, and to the audience's understanding, if we could get at least a brief glimpse of his meaty uncut schlong.

    • @azuranokurobuchiumi
      @azuranokurobuchiumi 4 роки тому +2

      That is so right. Not only did Theevan include the best characters, writing, dialog, and plot, it also featured some of the best landscapes, fluid animations, and character designs that I have ever seen. For instance, that scene in which Theevan fights the dragon on the mountain inspired me to make three oil paintings of that scene, none capturing its beauty. The originality of this film is stunning, and from a visual arts standpoint, the animation on most Ghibli films don't even hold a feather against this marvelous masterpiece. Overall, 69 trillion out of 10.

    Theevan's story is really that of a real man. His tale full of woe, as he realizes he can't break the tide of Mia's departure. He tries his best, but alas fails the end product. Mia was the source of his healthy life, the end of her means the end of Theevan. As she goes her seperate way, you can really see the hardships he had to bear take form crushing his hopes and dreams.

    I dont think any thing on this earth could replicate just how heart touching and breath taking this short film is. I strive to make something of this high class

    This is an enjoyable weird movie, and I thank you for making it public, Danan.

    Yes, the animation work is not the best out there,; however, Theevan still manages to outshine any hollywood superhero blockbuster by weaving a beautiful fantasy yet authentic story about unconditional love. The setting itself is, intentionally, ambiguous leaving its interpertation to the eye of the beholder. Even though we cannot hear the characters' voices/personality, the ethereal soundtrack does a wonderful job in filling the gaps with the help of the viewer's imagination.
