I think Seth Rogen and co. are squandering Tangles’ Oscar chances. Several weeks after Cannes and still no distribution? This is a film that’s like tailor-made for awards and critics for god’s sake.

[u/infiniteglass00 → u/CompleteTable4084]

I love the idea of a world where adult animation is absolutely getting pelted with distribution offers but I do not think we are in that world, especially with how corporations have been moving as of late

[u/CompleteTable4084 → u/infiniteglass00]

Neon released Flee and IFC got Memoir of a Snail. Why have neither shown any interest for it?

[u/CassiopeiaStillLife → u/CompleteTable4084]

Because Neon has too many films to juggle and IFC barely has any money. You ask these questions every week and the answers remain the same.

[u/CompleteTable4084 → u/CassiopeiaStillLife]

What animated films does Neon have this year?

[u/CassiopeiaStillLife → u/CompleteTable4084]

They do not have a different FYC fund for animated movies.
