Nimona (2027 film)/Tropes


 * Awesome Art: The character designs fir the film are great. They perfectly combine the webcomic's art style with a Disney-esque art style.
 * Awesome Music: Kathryn Bostic's music os top-notch. The score feels cinemstic as if intended for a big-budget summer blockbuster, and the songs are both a perfect fit in the story and enjoyables on their own right.
 * Creator's Oddball: For Disney Television Animation. Unlike most of its films, Nimona has no ties to an existing Disney property no is intended to lead to a TV series, making it the studios' first stand-alone movie (unless you count Fluppy Dogs, which was intended to serve as the pilot for a series, but the series wasn't green-light).
 * Family-Unfriendly Dead: The Dictator is burned alive by Dragon Nimona. Onscreen.
 * He Also Did:
 * Director Sage Cotugno has also worked as a director on series such as The Owl House and Star vs. the Forces of Evil. She was also a storyboard artist on Gravity Falls.
 * Writer and co-producer Molly Ostertag was oreviously a writer in The Owl House
 * Animation supervisor Kofi Fiagome was previously an animator for The Owl House, while animation supervislr Dana Terrace was that series' creator
 * Hilarious In Hindsight: In this film, Nive Nielsen stars as the protagonist with a traumatic past who faces against a character voiced by Anna Lambe. Come Walt Disney Animation Studios' Divided in 2029, and their roles are completly inverted! Througth it may jump to Harshe In Hindsight since Nielsen's character dies at the end.
 * Just Here For Godzilla: Given her work on She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, most audiences would watch the film only because its based on a work by Noelle Stevenson, even if they don't know if she is actually involved in the project.
 * LGBT Fanbase: Makes sense, considering the comic also had one. But this one went to the next level after the film was released, and had Bellister and Goldstein kissing at the end.
 * Older Than They Think: This is NOT the first time Noelle Stevenson has worked in a Disney TVA production. She has previously worked as a writer on Wander Over Yonder and DuckTales.
 * Shout Out: Among the objects Belluster stole are Pocahontas' necklace, a statue of Goliath, Luz' Witch's Wool, and Mickey's sorcerer hat.
 * Visual Effects of Awesome: The animation is just beautiful. Every scene is a wonderful example of the fluidity and beauty if hand-drawn animation, comparable to the of Disney's renaissance period even througth most of it was outsourced. And the in-house animated sequences are even better. They are even more fluid yet never feel out of place.
 * What Could Have Been: A Nimona film adaptation was previously in the works at Blue Sky Studios, with Patrick Osbourne directing and Chloe Grace Moretz starring. But the project was cancelled after Disney shut down Blue Sky.
