Finally! When I was 4, and read this book, I knew they should have made a movie!

And plus, there seems to be a book-movie thing going on.

WHAT A TRAVESTY! For being my FAVORITE children's story as a young kid I was really hoping for something FAITHFUL to the book. Instead they absolutely bastardized it. Aside from the obvious (and ridiculous!) plot changes, they scrapped any and every opportunity to create something truly unique in the world of computer animation. The BEST part of the book are the illustrations!! What an amazing piece of animation this could've been if they had only been smart enough to actually bring these original drawings to life. Instead we got what looks like every other generic CGI cartoon they pump out half a dozen times a year! One of the biggest disappointments of the year....
