So my grandma lived in Lithuania back when it was an SSR (She says she was born right after ww2 for reference) and she liked the movies there, from what I can gather they were family friendly affairs similar to the first pirates of the carribean in tone, any comments and maybe recomendations for old soviete media?

It's a cartoon, but I like it very much. It's impressive how despite the changes the dialogue is almost verbatim taken from the book.
>>7888Moscow-Cassiopea is the classic
i also like Im staub der terne 1976 east german (i think it is in english too)
warning: the later has thot porn
>>9595this cartoon was always kind of gay because it is 90s abomination
im not against it, in the 90s it was a bit interesting (however i never watched it full)
but the style is bad
soviet books OTOH had neat art and illustrations. just so you know.
>>12064I frankly don't see why. The animation is neat, the short stories are never crass or outright stupid and it's fairly good at carrying across fixtures of Russian culture.
It's also a show aimed at 2-6 year olds, so it's not exactly meant to be comparable to a more mature cartoon work.
>>19310That was always hilarious series
>>19309hey, i didn't think anyone else knew about this… I have it on DvD
>>7555 (checked)
This whole channel is a gold mine.
>>19311>hey, i didn't think anyone else knew about this…Yes. most people have not seen it unless they are professional animators or live in Russia. I am Ukrainian artist though, picrelated, and indie animation is my passion, so no wonder I know the guy. Unfortunately the Soviet animation in general is underwhelming and its poor quality reflects the level of development of the USSR in general. It's very sad to see what kind of shit the Nips were producing in the 80-00, and what the Soviet/Russian animation industry was making…
There's also a very nice Russian/Soviet animator, Garri Bardin, he won Palme d'Or at the Cannes festival for one of his shorts, here's my favorite

>>19318Yeah that was a trend with animated content from all the animating studios of the time, embed related is from Saakians's ArmenFilm…
What do you guys think about the subsidy in animation in Eastern bloc countries. Cat City used to be translated over here along with Nu, Pogodi!.
Some absolute gems.

>>7564>Thats a long fucking stretch my dude. Also Cuba still exists…Cuba lost out on their support from the USSR and has to eke it out.
Can't really defend the embargo against Cuba. If anything, the USMC should make a landing and deploy american businessmen on Cuba's shores. Two marines per businessman should do the trick during the critical part in the surf.
