Depends on how resource-heavy it is, but generally yes. Even more so if you learn how to optimize.

Depends on what movie you're talking about, and what hardware you have access to.
Something like LOTR on a common desktop computer? Don't think so, at least not in our lifetimes.

That's probably possible now imo. Very difficult but doable. Especially if you use render farms. (as an individual not a company)

this was in blender? huh, didn't know that
pretty neat

yeah, but the studio had to make changes to Blender to be able to complete the work

they went bankrupt anyways a couple months ago

to be fair, pretty much every animated film requires some modification of their software to accommodate the new things they're trying to do

They actually moved to Maya which is what caused them to fail. But nice try.

Then they deserve it, quite honestly. Coping blendlet. Fuck FOSS, fuck blender and fuck you too. :DDD

Watch Werner's presentation at ASWF's Open Source Days, esp. after 7:25. If you read between the lines, you'll see that they were having trouble with Blender and the increased scope of their last productions, e.g. having to read and re-process the full Blender scene to render even a small part. They started implementing USD to sidestep this, and to have better exchange among software, another weak point of Blender. But they began this mid production, and that always has a great chance of failing.

IIRC, for example, one producer pulled the plug after months pressuring TA to show renders, and they failing to do so.

It's good that they tried, and brought many good things to Blender, but it could be argued that, were they using production-ready software, as a relatively small studio, they wouldn't have gone down.

tl;dr: If you're considering Blender for a production, better watch ASWF's OSD "Open Source Production Renderer" talk, by Stefan Werner, 7:25 - 10:10. If you decide to go ahead with Blender nonetheless -- you have been warned.

I'm a blendlet and I'd never use Blender for making an animated movie. I only use it for modeling. Blender sucks at managing large scenes and the whole rigging and animation process.

i don't want to make animated movies in blender, but what about animated shorts? i want to recreate scenes from my favorite movies. these scenes would only last a few minutes at most.

Yes, if you use Eevee instead of Cycles.
