Hog-Hug – It seems John Lasseter actually played a fairly large
role in “turning the picture around”. Even before Disney bought Pixar, Disney had him over to get his
ideas on the in-development stuff. Once he actually came in control, Lasseter made it a little more of the
Director’s story (I forget his name), who was an orphan himself.
Yeah, I’m sure John helped a great deal- but I just don’t think it’s right
to say “Well the only reason it didn’t suck is cuz John came in! D:” I wasn’t sure what exactly John
did in the film, so I was speaking generally.
Anyway. I just wanted to say that our love for John and
everyone at Pixar shouldn’t blind us from other individual talent. 
Oh, I see what your saying now. Very good, your
absolutely correct! 
Hog-Hug: I get what you mean- I’d just like to see a
Disney cartoon film as good as the old times without help of anyone from Pixar. The Disney company used to be
really great, and now it seems they just spew out films for money.
I wish I could decipher the things that
Lasseter thought up and the things Disney thought up.
I do and
don’t agree. 
Disney and Pixar are seperate companies, but they’re partners now. I think it’s great that
John can help them out, and I think it’s great Disney can do the same for Pixar. The more minds the better,
definately. But I understand that you meant you just hope Disney is capable of greatness again- if they were
FORCED to be on their own. I definately agree. They shouldn’t DEPEND on John or Pixar, but I think the
partnership is great. (Not that you said it wasn’t.)
Luckily Disney is under some new leadership, and
they’re going through a LOT of changes- with the help of Pixar and some new individuals, I really think they can
bring Walt’s original vision back. 
I kinda wish I could see which parts of the movie were John and
which were Disney. Maybe I could be like Lewis and somehow invent special glasses for it.
Yesterday, I traveled with my parents through 2 states to watch [i]Meet The
Robinsons[/i] in Disney Digital 3D. The movie itself just gets better and better! The glasses added
depth, but they didn’t make things pop out. Still, the experience was enjoyable, and now I have a souvenir.
I paid more attention to the score and songs. I’m lovin’ them now! My favorite tracks are Danny
Elfman’s “To The Future!”, “The Future Has Arrived” by The All-American Rejects, and
“The Motion Waltz” (Emotional Commotion) by Rufus Wainwright, which I think sounds similar to the track
“The Prologue”.
~~=oP
It was great. I
loved it. I had my doubts, but alas they were put to rest. Bowler Hat Guy was the best character.
Wow, two states!?
You’re a MTR “ook”! (Your word again Mitch)
Yep, this is the second generation of 3D
movies. As you said: more depth, less “pop out”!
Well the thing is that Meet the Robinsons
would be very ANNOYING if everything popped out. You know? It isn’t that kind of a 3-D movie. There are two
kinds of 3-D movies:
There are the 3-D movies that are MADE to pop out at you, and they usually play in
special theaters. (I used to live in Washington state- in Seattle we have the Pacific Science Center which has an
IMAX theater that plays Hollywood IMAX and then the special IMAX features that are always in 3-D and are usually
really cheesy. There was a pretty cool one about dinos, though.)
And then there are the movies like Disney
Digital 3-D, which just makes the picture clearer, more vibrant and like GasDuude said, these films just have a
little more depth. Sometimes there are pop-out MOMENTS, like Carl and all his stretching, but for the most part,
Disney Digital 3-D just means “Better picture and a little more fun. ;)”
This might be a little OT, but yes, your right Hog-Hug.
Anybody else see
Spy Kids 3D? Honestly, one of the cheesiest movies I’ve ever seen! It’s like the
whole film was just to have stuff fly out of the screen! It was really sad…
I didn’t see it because I KNEW it
would be horrible. 
(Haha) Yeah, well you
“knewed” right! The other two weren’t actually too bad, in fact their fairly fun rides, but
Game Over was just a(nevermind)!
[spoil]Oh, that was funny during
Carl’s instructions. “Do these glasses make me look fat?”[/spoil] That would be a
cute easter egg for the DVD.
~~=oP
I agree!
So I just got back from watching this movie. I must
say it was a rather good one. I loved it so much. It had a great story and creative ideas. It was so inspiring
too.
So you’d give it a "thumbs
up"?
Here is my grade. It is really, really
good. I loved it a lot. It isn’t an A rating, but definetely not a B rating either. I think I will give it a B+
or an A-
I’d agree with a B grade.
Not fantasmic because in my opinion, it needed to be WAY longer to be A+++ awesome- but definately not bad at
all, and a very cute, heart-warming story I’ll be happy to enjoy again and again.
I’d praise it more,
but I don’t want to go into too much detail again, unless everyone wants to hear it… again. XD
Most people gave it a B grade. I am not sure if this movie is award worthy. What do you all think?
I’ll give it a B+ for effort – the fact of the matter
is that I would watch it a hundred times just to view those last ten minutes of film that really had some
heart to them. The rest of the film was rather slow and typically fast-paced in
parts, but other than that…it was an enjoyable ride. It kept me entertained, that’s for sure.
As
for award-worthy: Ratatouille is going to beat [i]Meet the
Robinsons[/i] at the Oscars paws-down next year. Or, at least, I hope it does!
