I saw this last night and it's really terrific. And this is coming from someone who was getting tired of films with magical martial arts people.

But, it's funny and thrilling. I couldn't believe that I was watching animated characters and afraid someone was going to get hurt. That sounds ridiculous, but that's just how good the animation is. And the film is filled with some absolutely gorgeous visuals.

I would say that this is now the front runner for Best Animated Feature--and that's something given just how good Horton was.

I saw it yesterday and I have to agree with you. I wasn't too enthusiastic about seeing it, but I thought it was great.

It's leaps and bounds better than HORTON. Fantastic!

I thought this thread was going to be about a restaurant.

I'm glad there's a good family film from someone other than Pixar.

Was it just 2 years ago that there were like a million crappy animated movies about funny animals? Over the Hedge, Barn Yard, Madagascar, etc...

Sorta threadjacking but a friend of mine saw WALL-E last night at an advanced screening and absolutely loved it. He said it's the best Pixar film yet and an instant classic.

It looks pretty cute. But now that I have the choice of the theatre or the movies, I think I'll probably wait for this on Netflix. Looks adorable, though.

that thrills me about wall e. It looks so good.

Kfp is gorgeous visually--worth the big screen trip.
