Sony won <br /> <br />For the movie I loved it.. Best CG graphics I have ever seen.. Storyline is a bit bland at times but has great action scenes. If your really into looking at details in a movie this will shock you on how well they did.. Every rock, every tree, snow, water has excellent detail. <br /> Rating: 4 / 5 To bad Microsoft is going to pull the plug on HD DVD so you’re just wasting money… Sony won

Great movies like this on both formats is why dual format players will be the norm in order to have mass market acceptance. <br /> <br />I love what they can do with CGI and it will only get better in the future. No more will we have to deal with technical limitations that confuse the artists attempts to tell a story.

What I got was Shrek 3. I was under the impression computer animation was talking about the effects used in the movie not an entire movie made on it. My misunderstanding is my loss. I would have never bought it knowing it was a cartoon. Sure call it computer animated, it is still a cartoon. I turned it off after 5 minutes and put it in my dvd collection right next to the Shrek and baby einstein DVD's. I will probably never watch it again. HUGE WASTE OF MONEY...

“The Hero’s Journey.”

Too bad.

We need heroic role models in the world, even if only on celluloid.
