3/4 cast members are great and then there's Rosie O'Donnell what the FRICK were they thinking? Like how many dicks did her friend Madonna have to suck?
Oddly enough, I just watched the movie with the director's commentary last night. For Rosie, he said it was the laugh, her having massive interest in the cartoon and a good amount of knowledge (she's the reason they included "Bedrock Twitch"), and after she finished her audition she immediately went into a 10 minute thing of her stand up which the casting people loved.
Everything about the movie was kino besides the script.
Shows the quality work people can put into a movie even when its obviously not that great.
Now compare this to "critically acclaimed" capeshit.
Zero talent behind the camera
Barney has always looked like a scrawny geek next to Fred, and Moranis fit the vibe of the character. Going by the "they're cavemen", none of the women in the movie would've look like they did (maybe not Rosie, lol.) Wilma doesn't look sultry enough though

Hale Berry is in that movie (smoking hot outfit too)
I’m so tired of pretending these goyslop shows from boomers youth are good.
Hanna Barbara was know to do everything as extremely cheap as possiable.
The animation was absolutely shit. >But the jokes were good right?
No! It was unbearable. It only got watched because only 4 channels existed and boomer parents didn’t buy books for them to read.
It is just so embarrassing bad
I miss when movies had this kind of art direction and costumes. They look so realistic but cartoonish at the same time. I don't know how to explain it.
back when happy meals were cool enough that even adults wanted them
Not even kids like modern happy meal toys they go straight in the garbage as soon as the car reaches home
>infact I still do somewhere
I bet you park your $20,000+ car outside and your garage is full of boxes of old magazines, goyslop junk food toys, old rusted camping gear, and other literal trash.
It was culturally relevant when it was new. As a result, it is a snapshot in time that shows an American culture as it was. I watched it as a kid in the 70's-80's and found it entertaining. A lot of the jokes went over my head because a number of the celebrities they were satirizing weren't as relevant.
Same thing with Looney-Tunes. It is entertaining, but unless you were alive in the 30's-40's or a fan of the era and understand the zeitgeist and culture of the time, you might not get a lot out of it.
Both are historically meaningful in animation and worth checking out if you have never sat down and watched them in any serious manner. But I only recommend it if you have an attention span that hasn't been destroyed with social media.
How many times are the boomers going to push the 1960s single family suburban family and their neighbor couple as some idolized end game for adults?
.
So fricking sick of boomer culture
So tired of every Christmas song being a boomer song,
So tired of complaining about 2.1 kids and then lawn mowing being shown as what most people do on Saturdays.
So tired of it all.
3/4 cast members are great and then there's Rosie O'Donnell what the FRICK were they thinking? Like how many dicks did her friend Madonna have to suck?
I guess it's a comedy and she was a popular comedian at the time
Ricky Gervais is a pretty popular comedian though but I wouldn't cast him as Betty
>though
*too
don't know what went wrong there
>don't know what went wrong there
I do
Rosie was literally stunt casting since she used to do the Betty laugh on her popular talk show.
Her talk show didnt premier until 1996. 2 years after this movie. My mom used to watch that shit.
WOWWW ZOWWWEEE YOUR A BIT OF A DETECTIVE AINT YA?

Huh, well at least I understand it now but I still don't agree with it.
rosie was fine. she was funny and fit the cartoony atmosphere. if you want a hot skinny betty there's a million porn parodies to choose from.
Rosie has never been funny
fat betty was wrong to me even as a kid born in '85 so looking it up... i was barely 9 years old and knew that fat betty was harsh to even look at
Yes. But cinema was better back then and so it seemed worse than it was. Same thing happened to The Lost World by Spielberg.
Turbokino
This was during the time they forced that black actress into everything
Halle Berry?
ye
she wasnt forced. She was hot as frick.
I wish they forced her onto my wiener if you know what I mean.
She was already a popular actress at the time so there was nothing forced about it other than to lend more star power.
>nothing forced about it other than to lend more star power
more like "this is for the dads in the audience"
Goodman carried the whole movie

Wilma should've been hotter. i don't mind Rosie O'donell as Betty
All things considered it was interesting to see a more difficult than usual cartoon world be depicted in live action fairly accurately
Rosie O'Donnell was perfectly fine as Betty and not any less believable than fricking scrawny nerdy ass Rick Moranis as Barney, a caveman.
Republiturds are the biggest line towing partisan hacks and literally can't enjoy anything that they're instructed not to.
There wasn't enough child sex trafficking in The Flinstones for me to angry about.

Why do you hate her anon?
>how do you like your coffee?
Absolutely bestial
feet
Halle is a coloured lady, not the other thing.
This scene activated my puberty
It’s funny that dale cooper was the villain

Just like in Twin Peaks https://youtu.be/TR6b3cfW19c

keep crying loser.

practical sets instead of cgi
I had most if not all of them, infact I still do somewhere ..

Yeah like during the beanie baby craze when mcdonalds had some you would have adults buying happy means for them.

Nah I'm a neet and live with my parents, I don't even have a car.
you sound poor
zoomers need to know about this
Speaking of Flintstones, was the Flintstones cartoon actually good enough to warrant such popularity it had?
Yes. The first season is great and the simpsons and family guy stole a bunch from it.
It was basicially the first cartoon that had episodes with a plot. Just just a short like looney tunes or popeye
It is fricking terriable. You would have to be 9 years old mentally to enjoy it,
