A 2 hour kids movie is in a word impossible! 90 is the industry standard... sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less... but there is pressure that keeps movies 90 minutes long, and I bet that's on the end of the theaters and cinema chains to get as many showings of multiple blockbusters...

The last few were just not made under the same leadership. LTS showed big signs of improvement, but it did seem like watching the beginning half hour of a movie and the last half hour, and skipping the middle... but MFS suffered from bad (and bland) directing, Oz suffered Pop Culture shock, and...

That's the thing with Nanco... Some of their plush looks REALLY good (basing it on a variety of licenses, that is) some of them don't. The Simpsons ones tend to look as good as Simpson plush and 3-D merchandise could possibly look. I'm guessing the Pepes on e-bay are all used and stuff...

That's the only thing that's kinda a bother... the fact that it's generally that sort of plot... Not that I won't see this opening day. I'd shove kids out of my way to see it. I just hope it's successful enough to lead to other films.

Dude... if Scooter's there, there's no doubt Beau would be at LEAST somewhere else in the movie. Even a non-speaking cameo role.

That's precisely what bothers me about the widescreen/full frame stuff. The obligation to use as much new material that's widescreen as possible, but when it comes down to it, when they have to use full frame stuff (cough cough Elmo's World) they use it. It's a discrepancy. They refuse to use...

Princess and the Frog would have done SOOOO much better than it did if it got THIS cherished release date... but they put too much stock in that Christmas Carol film that was a huge, ugly flop, and tossed PnF to fight against the surprise hit of Avatar and the "I can't believe there's a director...

I'll answer both. Sababa's Wembley was made to give the illusion of the multicolored layered hair of the Puppet under studio lights...' sort of like this poser. It's sort of the same paradox as Gonzo's nose color... when the light hits it, it refracts and colors that weren't present can be...

I heard a rumor that he was to be played by Corey Burton, who performed his voice in one of the video games.

I hope whatever Dreamworks has doesn't compete that hard with it. Especially since I hear it's the third Madagascar... :rolleyes: I like Madagascar and all, but 3? And the plot sounds terrible. But it really seems a Thanksgiving release MAY be more beneficial than a straight out Christmas...

Plus, they're totally cheap and will reuse ANYTHING that's not nailed down. I was pretty disappointed it was a reused Ernie and Bert's Great Adventure, even though it seems to be an oversight. Plus, I didn't see it for 2 years, not 2 episodes like a certain OTHER segment. Though they still...

Well, the DOI always comes to vacation weeks in my area. When we get an SSL over here it's just after (sometimes during) April vacation. So I wonder if they schedual a lot of them during vacation weeks in certain areas, or it's just in MA... I remember seeing Toy Story on ice (the ONLY ice...

I've seen some of these at actual stores (not the easiest ones to find, since they're only available in educational stores in higher end neighborhoods), and they actually look pretty good in reality. Though, The Red is probably the best looking of the bunch. If some of the colors on the other...

Tron wasn't exactly a big hit in the 80's... it just garnered a cult following. I'm sure it could do SOMETHING with all the buzz it got... Harry Potter and Narnia may hinder it... but it couldn't possibly be any worse at the box office than the original one. That said, I'm trying VERY hard to...

Anything done well and done right can work... We all can appreciate the work that hundreds of artists do, but it all comes down to directors, direction, and directing. Polar Express at least has the excuse of trying to look like the art from the book... but the hyper realism, motion capture...

I can't really get on that without starting the obvious political banter... I hate the right's claim to piety as much as I hate the left's passive aggressiveness. This all dated back to the 1970's, and the founding of the "Moral Majority" which again came out of people not liking Hippies, and...

Someone BESIDES Peter Griffin once said that homosexuals should have the right to be married so they can be as miserable as the rest of us. Truer words were never spoken. Now, not trying to step on any toes, but marriage is a human ritualistic ceremony. It's all about symbolism that NO ONE...

Does anyone have any info on this episode? In the clip are the B for Boot "machine" The 2 headed monster in a sketch about same and different a sea shell being uncovered in stop motion from sand A street segment where Leo, Telly, Dexter the juggler, and a bunch of kids are "partying"...

Nah, nah, I'm not referring to you, but rather that exact scene in the movie that was trying to "ape" the "anime" look. That exact scene is what US audiences think anime is. As for it, I thought it cute but far too far out of place in the movie, and that sequence should have been the first...

2 things... I HATE the American view of generified DBZ sorta looking "anime." I've seen a LOT of series that do indeed look like that, and I've seen plenty that don't. if anything, most modern ones look VERY Western (at least their comics). Naruto has a very marvel quality to it, One Piece...
