Brad Bird has proven himself, at the very least, as a writer to be a source of wonderfully fantastical and fantastically wonderful animated films. This of course goes for children who when set down to watch or taken to the cinema to see the films; are drawn in and lost until the credits roll. However this also applies to the more mature audiences in some ways, who are most likely going to be somehow subjugated to a 'children's movie'. From the heart string strumming Iron Giant to the anthropomorphised rat just doing what he can to chase his dream in Ratatouille. The Incredibles is the only other animated movie that he has written and directed and if you haven't seen it already and you're between the ages of 'just learned how to read' and …show more content…
The action sequences are so well done that most live action movies could take a page out of this films book. There’s a subtlety to the central focus of family which is built upon throughout the progression of the narrative and the growth and actions of the characters with in it. This ability to have fully fleshed characters that move within the scenario placed so that the story follows and builds around them rather than having them plod along from plot point to plot point or doing things just because it is required is testament to Bird’s ability as a storyteller. Of course this is obvious to those that have seen any of his other films such as The Iron Giant (1999) and Ratatouille (2007) as he shows that animation shouldn’t be constrained to immature jokes and pretty colours or juvenile concepts but that they can be stylised in sepia and colour; they can be gritty and heartfelt and they can also take mature looks an oriented look at how a family fights and sticks together. That makes it easy to see why Pixar signed him up. The studio famously known for its original animations makes a perfect fit for The
Napoleon Dynamite is one of the best movies portraying loneliness and nerds. It is the story of Napoleon in high school and his lonely adventures. All the main characters feel separated, misunderstood, and have nobody to relate to. Napoleon has no friends and lives in his own fantasy land. He is avoided by everybody. His brother seems to be mislead, wanting to be a cage fighter but staying home all the time hopelessly trying to find love and attention on the internet. Their grandmother is never there for them, though she lives her own life right beside them. They live next to a huge field, reinforcing their isolation. Practically every home in the film is
One main idea of this book was that with the right mindset anything is possible. This is proven in the book when Louie is in the concentration camp and has to hold up a large piece of wood while having the Japanese guards stare at him. This shows that he had the mindset that he could outlast the guards and that he could overcome any obstacles in life.

I think people would impress at the visual in his film because it makes them escape from the reality and release from stress. Moreover, using the same characters causes a result as meeting your own family or friend because you have an attachment with them. Even though they change their personality or hairstyle, you still have that feeling. Most of his films have influences from literature (which we can see the details in summary two) such as Roald Dalh and if you read Roald Dalh’s books such as The Witches or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, you won’t deny that they are more than the normal children's fiction. Wes Anderson creates films by mixing the value of literature into his films.
The unique animation style plays an important role in making UPA so popular at that time. Tired of the same Mickey Mouse gags, people love McBoing Boing and Mr. Magoo. UPA’s style is completely different from Disney’s. UPA did not use talking animals, but use human beings instead. In Disney’s shorts, there are always talking animals and the gags in Disney are used over and over again.
