Antz - The character designs are so hideous. I simply couldn't sit through it. If you're gonna make a CG bug film, do it like Pixar. A Bug's Life is my favourite Pixar film. There's no way I'll ever like Antz,
The Road to El Dorado - well, except for perhaps, Cinderella 2, this has to be the worst animated film ever. From the redicolous opening sequence to basicly anything that incolved the slutty village girl character this is a complete mess. I also kept screaming throughout the film "what was Elton John thinking??" Sorry I just really hate this film.
Spirit - Although the story is fairly safe and it doesn't touch on anything we haven't seen before in animation, this is by far my favourite Dreamworks film. If you take out the boring Bryan Adams songs and the voice-over you have an awesome film. For once the character designs looked pretty good as well. And it has some awesome animation.
Sinbad - this one was okay-ish. The villain was awesome. Yet the "tradigital" aspect of the film stood in the way. They completely over used computer animation. It annoyed the heck out of me.
Shrek 1 & 2 - Well if you're gonna make an animated comedy, this is probaply the most uninspired way to do it. Aside from the lame stories and uninspired jokes I also hate the character designs. The stiff horrible human design of Fiona is horrible. Compare it to any human Pixar design. They're all better. Heck, I think even Disney with their limited resources will be able to do it better. And whenever I compare Shrek 1 to Shrek 2... I can hardly tell where the animation has progressed. Pixar on the other hand keeps outdoing themselevs every minute.
Shark Tale - for once I've avoided a DW film. So can't say anything about it really. I hated the character designs once again. Are fish not allowed not to look like Fish?? whatever
Madagascar - this one looks interesting. The trailer was sorta funny and the character design I like. First time ever I'm looking forward to a DW film.
Overall, I thought their traditional movies had a lot more guts than their CG film. I hate Katzenberg's attitude lately, saying he and Pixar are the only ones in the business who know how to do it. Aside from Shrek, what does he have? If your only hit is a franchise of movies making fun of the competition and throwing in some burp gags and karaoke at the end... isn't it a littl sad ?? When Jeffry K said that... made me wish Chicken Little is gonna break all possible records out there.
Fox isnt so bad though..
. IMO it wasnt a finding nemo ripoff it just came out at the wrong time. If It came out in 2008 ppl would not mention Nemo. I just didnt like it because it was stupid and i hate rap music.
. Also it had great music and memorable chracters.
