Title: Horton Hears a Who!
Post by: Zovistograt on March 16, 2008, 12:43:41 PM
So I went to the movies today and saw this movie...yeah, that's right.

And it was amazing.  Really.


Basically, if you like or ever liked Seussian stuff, or at least awesome CG-animated environments, you'll love this.  This is, imo, better even than the other stuff to come out of this studio (Ice Age, for example).  The story is simple yet complex and is masterfully executed with some great added touches, and the dual climax scene is a great work of imaginative art.

If you like watching the Pixar and Dreamworks CG-animated movies, I suggest you don't miss this one.

Definitely.  Dr. Seuss belongs in CGI, not live-action :P

It looks good. But i'm broke (Ok, not really. But i'm not spending it  >:() and my parents probably wouldn't pay to see it.

Ratatouille was amazing.

In terms of technical computer animation, I think it's safe to say this is a bit more cartoony but still in the same league.

Also, there's a ninja anime dub spoof in there that made me lol hard.

I saw it yesterday, and I agree full-heartedly with Zovi. It was a very imaginative movie, and well done. Especially the spoof on Ninja Anime. XD

I'll take your word on it, Zov. Besides, the Cat in the Hat movie was just dumb, it was a intercourse ing idiotic idea to have Mike Myers in a cat costume. (I like Mike Myers, but never EVER put him in a cat costume) The Horton movie looks good though.
