"Live action? That sounds interesting."

It does. A live action Flintstones worked very well, so I could see this working well too.

My thoughts exactly. While I do think that CGI has it's artistic attributes, there is something more to hand drawn art. The skills and talent that were God given have a chance to shine. That is to say, those born with the ability to illustrate or paint, their talent is put on display. Much less technical than using CGI.

I don't know... maybe I'm not making any sense.

well as i've mentioned before, i really hate seeing the flash animation that's seen on tv these days. everything has a rubbery movement to it. it just doesn't have the flow that's in actual handdrawn animation. with the flash that they use, all you have to do is copy and paste limb movements as well as facial expressions with a mouse. it's pure laziness.

And they're getting paid for this?

Sounds like the way those corny ninja figures are animated in those Halloween and Christmas Specials that get shown in the...

Hey, wait a minute!

Careful now.

Yeah so... this isn't happening now. Popeye is sleeping with the fishes.

Would this movie have been successful anyway?

aaaand there goes the budget for the trailer.
