Thoughts so far on 2011 Animated Movies?

Okay. A mod will also need to lock this one up.

#82

Yeah. A mod could lock this if they want since were already a month into the New Year.

#83

Yeah, I guess that’s pretty fair. Until then we’ll probably have threads for individual movies that are coming out in spring, such as The Lorax.

Personally, I think this thread should stay open until at least after the Oscars, because I may want to discuss them.

#84

Yeah, you’re probably right about having a new thread in summer. I don’t think this thread should be locked before then.

#85

The other thing is that many movies haven’t been released on DVD yet, such as Puss in Boots and Adventures of TinTin. I consider my list of 2011 movies still incomplete. :slight_smile:

#86

The Adventures of Tintin comes out on DVD on March 19th (in the UK at least) and Puss In Boots comes out on April 2nd (I assume that’ll be earlier in the US). So it has to sort of be mid-year because by that time all of the 2011 films will have had DVD releases :slight_smile:.

#87

The DVD release date for Puss in Boots is different in America, probably because it was released before here. It comes out in two weeks from tomorrow.

I’ll rank the ones I’ve seen:

  1. Cars 2
    I thought the animation was good, like the part when Holley and Finn were going up that elevator thing at the party in Japan. They looked so shiny and real! There were more characters I really liked in this one more than the first one. In the first one, there was Red, and in this one, there were Red, Francesco, and Finn.

  2. Kung Fu Panda 2
    I like the action and setting. I also love the characters. I love how they portray a snake as a good character (Viper).

  3. Rio
    I love birds, so that’s enough.

  4. Rango
    I thought the characters were cute. I didn’t like how it was kind of dark, and how they portayed a snake negatvely. He’s not really the villain, but I still feel like it was negative.

  5. Gnomeo and Juliet
    It was interesting and a cute variation on the story. I also like that Elton John was involved in it, and his music was in it.

I really liked all five of the ones I saw.

My favorite movie of the year was Rango and my least favorite was Cars 2.

#90

I agree about Rango, but the worst I’ve seen of last year’s crop was Mars Needs Moms.

#91

I agree with Mars Needs Moms.

#92

Rio is my always favorite.
