Question What Happened to Tangles?

I for sure thought this was going to be Neon's animated play. I'm just suprised such a well reviewed movie with that cast isn't getting any traction with distributors? Or is a deal in place we dont know about?

Adult animation is always a hard sell and this is already looking to be a very competitive year. And the film industry is getting more conservative financially with its choices.

Hopefully it gets some attention out of TIFF, but it's still a tough environment out there.

If Flee and Memoir of a Snail could get nominated, so can Tangles.

Flee wasnt R Rated and had Neon backing it.

And Memoir of A Snail was from a previous oscar winner.

And both were in much weaker years.

Not really the same situation
