  1. You know, I wasn't all that impressed with the stills. I hope the final product is better.

  3. I'm not too impressed, either. It seems like they're trying to be too literal in terms of translating the look of the cartoon to film. I have a feeling it's going to be CG laden, overly stylized, and hyper frenetic.
