BRING BACK TRADITIONAL ANIMATION ALREADY GODDAMMIT

[spatch]

Just saw the trailer for Hoodwinked.

Holy crap. It looks terrible. It doesn't even look like someone's demo reel from back when teapots, brushed chrome spheres and checkerboards were all the rage. I did better animation with my 486/66, a copy of POVray, and two nights' worth of rendering. (It was called Purvis The Blob and it wibbled.)

And this one defies all logic. Or maybe you'd like to explain to me why the cows (as evidenced by their udders) are speaking in tough guy voices?

I don't want to hear anything about how it's supposed to be for the kids, blah blah woof woof. Kids deserve better.

Yeah, kids also deserve fairy tales not filtered through some "hip" satyrical lens. Y'know, these stories have been around for hundreds of years ... maybe there's something in them that's actually valuable in itself, not just as fodder for parody to show everyone how cool you are.
