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.

That's what they said about The Passion of The Christ. Listen, you get some actors desperate for a hit (Ben Affleck) to do the voice work, throw in a catchy song sung by someone other than Ben Affleck (over the credits even), release it in 3-D IMAX in select cities, and it'll make $100 million and get two Oscar nominations.

Make Purvis eat Santa Claus and burp out his hat; they'll show it every year on TBS and you'll get residuals for the rest of your life.
