I loved TS3, but I have seen some people respond to it with a "been there done that" reaction.

I don't think Wall-E teaching the blob-humans to walk and farm and talk to each other face-to-face and get out of their Walmart Hell-cruise is "minor" or "little," and the portrayal of humanity having become the Hell-cruise in the first place seems a bit subversive to me, as do the Harrison Bergeron themes of The…
@disqus_jc0YTPDJYw:disqus Despicable Me isn't Dreamworks, it's Illumination/Universal.
Something that explains why this movie exists: Disney was working on Monsters Inc 2 on their own without Pixar before the purchase. TS3 was the same (though Pixar had come up with TS3 ideas of their own long before the purchase made it a contractual obligation). Not sure about Cars 2. Finding Dory seems to exist as…
Are we sure he's saying Up's not good or is he saying it was the last movie of the Golden Age?
I don't think it's the best but I would put it on par with Finding Nemo (which I would say is quite a bit overrated).
Would Short Peace be eligible? Since Combustible was already submitted for the short Oscar and made the semi-finalists.
Ah, Hunchback. How big were the bribes to get that a G rating?
Smart way to twist the formula: the boy is the dinosaur's pet.
@avclub-4c37107b9dedb73b90f677930bf7728b:disqus Prince of Egypt counts as Great Dreamworks IMO. Very underrated movie, that one.
And since Bruce Timm did the designs and Batman appears in the first episode, does Freakazoid count as some alternate dimension of the DCAU?
Detail I'm now wondering about: Cinnamon Bun's nightlight is Jake. I guess it could be some other dog, but Jake was also his "girlfriend" in another episode, so I'm really curious what's up with them.
@avclub-32b63dd70d870580128d83e930199e1c:disqus Might George Takei have a greater cultural impact? A more positive one at least because everyone loves George Takei.
@avclub-b6e5391be8277308d0801a0be95ac706:disqus That article brings up the "Disney was an anti-Semite" meme, which has been proven false (he was an anti-Communist nut, though, and that crowd did overlap with anti-Semites, explaining how that meme got started).
Anyone else kind of nervous about the idea of Broadway-style movie pricing? And ticket prices varying on a by-film basis? Box office numbers are going to be hell to read in such a scenario (unless the focus shifts, of course, to number of tickets sold rather than total gross). Though maybe it could be promising if…
Poor scripting AND an awful lead performance. Everyone else in the movie ranges from passable to actually pretty fun, but Hayden Christensen kills the movie flat (also, that "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!").
@avclub-94d8526a5fae933806f65b8a0f49301a:disqus Exception: Bruce Timm's cartoons made it work.
I wish they had the guts to go through with their original plan of making it a more explicit satire of religion and the conflict between Christianity and Judaism (http://twitchfilm.com/2013/…. As it is, there's something profoundly strange about seeing a movie made by and starring a bunch of Jews who somehow don't bat…
Didn't Tarantino and Aaron Sorkin work on The Rock?
Might J T Doggzone be a collaboration between this gang? Jake's a dog and his name start with J, Tiffany's name starts with T, the extra g could be for Gareth, and the two gs could also represent twins, who also have to get in the "zone" for their tricks.
