8) No Stars for Luca: A Fun Twist on Getting Knocked Out
The surprising moment of the character getting hit on the head in Luca does not react like a cartoon. It doesn't produce any stars or swirls in his head; instead, it confuses him. This breaks the convention that usually defines animation and injects some realism into a whimsical film. This moment forces the filmmakers to pay attention in a way that subverts the audience's expectations and shows how a simple and realistic response can be impactful in the same way an over-the-top one could be. Fans of this film will appreciate this more subtle but clever deviation of animation norms.
