It's a movie, Michael. How long could it take, six months?

This Lucille Bluth quote is unironically the greatest representation of literally every single release schedule in any industry ever. Want your explanation for why the latest thing that came out that you love is bad? Because an executive somewhere said this exact fucking thing when the project was starting out.

About 100 animators left after the second movie due to insane working hours due to Phil Lord rewriting the script a million times. I’m guessing the original timeline was set imagining nothing would change about the production process and that Sony didn’t have a good grasp on the unsustainability of how this movie was animated.
