Love, Death and Robots vol. 4
Can't Stop
Strings attached.
A marionette version of the Red Hot Chili Peppers perform Can't Stop "live". It's very weird to see one form of animation animating another form! I'm pretty sure it's computer animated because some of the moves pulled just wouldn't work with puppets and the faces and instrument playing definitely are. Obviously the music is great, but not sure why they bothered doing it!?
Close Encounters of the Mini Kind
Probe!
What it says on the tin, aliens visit Earth and chaos ensues. Looked like another computer animated short aping a different form of animation, this time miniatures and stop motion.
It was quite crude and LOL worthy in many places. Going through the other seasons, probably by the same people who did Night of the Mini Dead.
Spider Rose
More machine now than woman.
First realistic CG style of this batch. A woman alone in space is plotting revenge when a trade offer is made to her. Didn't go quite the way I expected, but it did end with the twist that I predicted.
400 Boys
The harder they fall.
Gangs in a post-apocalyptic(?) city are being wiped out, so they must band together to fight a common enemy. Firsty 2D animation of this batch, although all the characters are heavily stylised in an angular fashion with lots of black and white with the city bathed in orange.
The Other Large Thing
Feline fine!
A cat with big ideas is introduced to a helper bot by his owners, chaos ensues. Very Pixar-ish looking.
Golgotha
Don't **** up!
Aliens visit earth to meet a special dolphin! And it's one man's job to be the emissary for the human race. Live action with the aliens, obviously, the only (CG) animated element.
The Screaming of the Tyrannosaur
Are you not entertained!?
Gladiatorial games, held above Jupiter, with dinosaurs!! Realistic looking, but with an ever so slightly cartoony-ish feel, I was thinking Arcane like, but I would say, looking at images, that's the other way around cartoony with a realistic tinge.
How Zeke Got Religion
Unholy experience.
WWII set horror where a highly effective bomber crew is sent on a mission to bomb an unusual target.
Another 2D one, not as stylised as the other one, but still quite unique.
Smart Appliances, Stupid Owners
Follow the instructions.
A lot like Creature Comforts by Aardman Animations except with inanimate objects.
For He Can Creep
Cat got your tongue.
Set in 18th century London, the devil has an offer for a poet, but the poets cat isn't so sure.
3D animation by Polygon Pictures that looks like cell shaded art rotoscoped over live action.
Pretty solid season apart from the first one, although I would say nothing stood out in a WTF way with the story or a wow way with the animation like the previous ones. If I were to pick a favourite or two, I would say the more comedic ones of Mini Kind and The Other Big One were mine. Tyrannosaur was pretty cool and Zeke was interesting, but I wouldn't necessarily say I need more.
