Blarghagh Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 When a movie that relies on humor has no funny jokes in the trailer, I have little hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surreptishus Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 (edited) Key to a Dreamworks CGI film: hire top grade actors for the voices, use ridiculous anthropomorphism, chuck in a series overtly self referential jokes in place of a story, insert montage. Repeat as necessary Unfortunately, Pixar's Cars used this formula... thats why it sucked. The NASCAR theme also made it suck.

Cars wasn't bad, just comparing it to all Pixar's other films made it look bad. But when the worst film a company makes is good, just not awesome, that speaks lots for the company. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
