An Idea for Croods 3??

Even though they’re probably already working on it lol.

So I find myself thinking about that concept art for Croods 2 and the scrapped characters. I’ve thought since the beginning that I wished something could have been done with the designs. I’ve been mulling an idea about it tonight for some reason so here goes:

Croods and Croods 2 were funny as heck and if they made a third film of course the focus would still need to be on comedy. However! I feel like if the Croods 3 were to end the whole shebang, and it probably should, then it should be the most daring of the Croods movies, with the most to say and, well, just “goes there”. 

The first Croods movie actually briefly touched upon a few of these kinds of issues but I think they need to really tackle them head on in a final film. What am I talking about some of you might wonder? Abuse. Of course though none of our main players would commit such acts, so we need a new family with these problems. And I think I know just the one!

Croods is in need of a proper, hate-able villain... And I think this guy should be him.

They probably originally designed him as more the bumbling/overbearing but ultimately loving/caring and well-meaning type dad like Grug is supposed to be. However, since Grug already fills that role, I think this guy would be better suited as a villain/the dark combination of Grug’s strength and Phil’s intelligence and need for perfectionism. Like he might get along with both dads at first bc he has things in common with both, but eventually he gives off the vibes as being the kind of guy who expects what he thinks of to be as perfection/idealism, or else. His own general appearance gives off this vibe, but then you look at the art of his potential wife...

This woman... Bugs me so dang much. XD;;; Like the art itself is cute, she looks fun and fun to draw, but she looks so disgustingly perfect for a cavewoman, and she especially looks out of place as a Croods cavewoman. But I think that could be what possibly elevates this character and makes it make sense. Maybe there’s a reason she looks and acts so unnaturally “perfect”. Maybe it’s bc it’s what her husband demands of her, and her perfection reflects her fear of her imperfections ever being seen...

After all, the caveman stereotype we tend to think of is a much more violent type of man. Grug himself taps into this violence when he thinks he needs to protect his family, but I just can’t stop thinking about that “joke” Gran made about her father essentially tearing her apart from her true love and actually SELLING her to another mate. THAT’S FKIN CANON LIKE DAMN. So why not have at least one villainous caveman type character? Why not have one jerk who is willing to pull his wife by the hair and order her around who the others eventually have to square up against as a true family?

Also I feel like this girl...

And this one were probably meant to be sisters, maybe...? They look too unlike each other to be the same character I think, but I also think that’s what they should do with her. Like the first image is who she is forced to be at first by her dad, making her into a mini version of her mother who he also molds through intimidation. But the second image could be closer to what she really wants to look like/looks like by the end. Cavegirl BFFs are great but what about a whole Cavegirl Posse, dude!

Also speaking of Gran, if this third story were to focus more on issues like these, I feel like it would only be fair to go back to Gran’s issues too. But that doesn’t mean we can’t still have just a lil fun with it lol...

Like I’m thinking it would be hilarious if Gran just casually mentions something horrifying happening to her in her youth like she did that one time at the dinner table, and she’s laughing it off at first, but then Hope/Dawn or Eep/Thunk or someone casually remarks to her, “Wow Gran, that actually sounds really awful! If that happened to me I’d probably be traumatized for life!”

At which point it slowly dawns on Gran how messed up it actually was. She slowly starts to sob. It gets SUPER massively uncomfortably awkward while she’s crying, all the other characters look really unsure what do to at first... Finally, one of them reaches over and gives Gran one or two quick pats on the back, and she immediately stops sobbing and exclaims in her normal voice, “ALRIGHT, I’M OVER THAT! I’M TOO OLD TO BE TRAUMATIZED! GIMME MORE FOOD!” XD

I hate when creators give up creative control over their works. As a writer, how the hell are people okay with this when it often just turns out to be for the worse? YOU’RE the only one who knows your own vision not anyone else. Especially when you’re writing something not too grounded in reality, your vision will be extremely hard to live up to from other people.

This is why follow-ups and remakes often suck and why shows go downhill after their creator leaves them.

Contenders and Rules can be found here. Next week will have no poll, just because of IRL conflicts. The next Dreamworks poll will release on 12 December 2023.

(Also feel free to add in the tags or notes whether I should still keep running the Dreamworks Tournament separate from the Illumination Tournament in the coming years)

EDIT: The conflicts have changed, so I will hold the next poll next week!

“Loss of limb, (just one if it helps)”

13 years later and I still can’t believe Dreamworks had the balls to just amputate a 15-year old kid and handled it in like the best way possible.

DreamWorks has always had such mature themes now that I think about it, and they introduced them and handled them in a way that seems so natural to children.

Hiccup’s amputation is such a good example.

DreamWorks didn’t gloss over it either, and even they continued, in every show and every movie from then on, to show what it’s like living with a disability like that. There were some things Hiccup had a harder time doing than before, but in no way did it get in the way of his goals and dreams.

I didn’t understand how important that was when I was a child, watching the movie for the first time, but I understand it now.

DreamWorks has guts, and I’m so happy that they do

#one of httyd hidden messages is that disability doesn’t define you #I actually had a conversation with a friend the other day about DreamWorks #it’s my favorite studio #it really feels like every movie is made for kids and adults #think about the messages in their movie that adults relate to and understand #spirit: suppression and a chilling history lesson about Native American #shrek: you are beautiful and perfect just the way you are #croods: sometimes you need to break out of your comfort zone #puss in boots 2: literally a lesson in accepting that nothing lasts forever so you have to cherish it while it lasts #Kung fu panda: believing in yourself is what matters most #and here I’m not including other anazing movies with mature themes such as #el dorado #rise of the guardians #madagascar #sinbad #and so on #yeah I’m obsessed #but that’s okay #it’s something that makes me happy #thank you anon you made me go insane #httyd #how to train your dragon #hiccup #anon #ask #rant #text post #commentary

I can shit on The Croods: A New Age as much as I want,but what can’t be denied is that the plot greatly highlighted two extremes: Croods and Bettermens.While the cavemen can be overwhelming,they’re also straightforward and affectionate with each other.Meanwhile Bettermens are aware of the need of privacy,but they lost the ability to openly talk about their issues,which resulted in Phil having secrets from his wife and both becoming passive aggressive.

In the end both parties learned something from one another:Phil and Hope became more open and ongoing,finally trusting their daughter to do her own thing; Grug started respecting Eeps and Guys wish to be independent from him.These families found the golden middle between closeness and giving space.

#the movie’s still a big no-no for me #my family chose this instead of shrek 2 to watch during new year and i haven’t recovered since #croods a new age #the croods #dreamworks #cartoons #movie analysis

I finally watched the croods: a new age and have a headcanon

Dawn will be scooped too. She shall be scooped and picked up like a weightless feather by Eep. Just like she does with Guy.

Dawn will be doing chores but Eep wants to hang out, but Dawn has to finish first. But she’s taking forever. So Eep helps her by scooping her up and sprinting to the kitchen where the dirty dishes need to go

Then she runs to the farms to be watered, then the seal-chickens, then those mammoth cow things, and then they’re done. All while carrying her cause its faster of course!

Dawn has no idea what is happening.

She tries to convince Eep that she can walk but its a no cause they are faster this way. So she tries going for the ‘aren’t I heavy’ angle

And that’s how Guy ended up being scooped by Eep’s other arm.

And that’s also how Thunk and Eep started racing again. With her running while carrying both of them as added weight and less mobility...mostly less mobility
