    1st off it was purportedly already done in the 1940s, so much for the *original idea* Pixar and Disney are pushing.

    Beyond that, while it's pulling 90+ percent, wow, i thought it was 60% at best.
    Wayy over the top dry out there stuff, as opposed to the trailers that make it look like a comedy-drama.

    Wanting to see what y'all think.

    Sidepoint on the trailers, a boatload of new animateds coming up.
    Including the makers of Wallace and Grommit doing a different set of characters.

    I thought it was a little depressing, but overall a good flick.

    I took my daughter yesterday and thought it was more of a grown up movie than a kids movie....pretty heavy concepts for kids to try to grasp. I was entertained enough but it was definitely on the low end of Pixar movies in regards to quality.

    Super creative though, even if it's been done before as you pointed out.

    I thought it was great, although I wonder if kids will really embrace this movie. This one has the requisite kiddie goofiness, but it feels alot more like WALL-E in that it's marketed for kids, but seems like it's written for adults. And I was probably the only person in the theater who laughed at the San Francisco gay joke.

    In comparison to other Pixar movies, I have only Toy Story 2, TS3, Up, and WALL-E ahead of it.

    I'm getting tired of Pixar making these deep psychological movies in the guise of a kid flick.

    Make Incredibles 2 already.

    Which is why I'll always despise Wall-E. That wasn't funny at all, it was pretty but so what, it's animation, and the "message" was so sanctimonious and generic but critics ate that up. That's where this self-righteous, self-important Pixar started. And don't even get me started on Toy Story 3, aka David Lynch presents Toy Story

    Great movie with great concept. For kids!?! Not really.. But I almost cried, until I realized my over sized ass was surrounded by kids.

    Solid movie, enough colors and wacky stuff for kids and smart enough for adults to enjoy.

    As an aside, I don't know how she did it but Phyllis from The Office has basically hit the jackpot when it comes to an otherwise useless actor finding another role that's absolutely perfect for her.

    Being that I'm originally from the islands, bruddah, I enjoyed the Lava short film. The movie was a little bit too deep for m children so I didn't entirely enjoy this one as much Up or Monsters, INC.
