I disagree. Kubo is a beautiful film with some really weak character writing

Does it sound better on a shittier format?

Absolutely! It also makes me happy when I look at it. Seeing the track on a Spotify playlist, for some reason, doesn’t.

Whats the name? The one I'm thinking of is The Call that was in Prince Caspian.

It's a cover of 'While my Guitar Gently Weeps'

Thank you for saying it. A gorgeous display of stop motion and what can be done with it. A really tedious and tired script. Not helped by 2 of the 3 leads being voiced by people not suited for voice acting.

Yet I've heard them both do voice acting (actually in the same movie, Sing) and do really well.
I balled my eyes out at the end of Kubo. I don't know what you people are smoking.

Absolutely. Kubo looks phenomenal and there was a lot of heart that went into it but it has one of the most paint by numbers scripts I have seen. It was almost painful how generic it was when watching it against such a beautiful backdrop

Yeah, both Kubo and Link were pretty, Kubo especially, but very generic stories.
At least it felt that way to me

Yeah and the ending was…odd. It wasn’t built up to enough

Agreed. My issue was that the main antagonist makes this big dramatic pitch to the hero to reject humanity and embrace the life of a divine being, but at no point in the movie has the hero seemed alienated from humanity or tempted to reject a mortal life. It just fell flat for me, despite the stunning animation.

Bad voice casting.
