I just saw the movie and loved it! it was so entertaining and well done. I like the look so much better than CGI. You can see the craftsmanship and the artistry in every frame. First I went to a theatre where the sound was only playing on the left channel. No way to see a film! So I then got a refund and went to a properly working theatre. there was a little short in front of the film called "Christmas Caper" with the Madagasgar penguins. I hope the 2 films come out on Super 8. Oh please Derann! Listen to my plea...! (Or Classic!)

Very much in agreement, Alan!
We saw these about two weeks ago and they were great! I would absolutely buy the Penguins short and might stretch for the Wallace and Grommit Feature as well.
We saw Chicken Little this afternoon, and while I'm not begging for Derann to do a feature length version, I was impressed enough with it to predict the era of Disney/Pixar is really over: Disney did great on their own here.
It gives me mixed feelings about the upcoming Toy Story 3. Is it really Toy Story without Pixar?
