    Wow. I can feel the heat radiating off the screen. There's anger coming through, but none of your complaints really read as coherent. First you're over there, complaining that the film had a message in the first place, and then you're saying that it's alright for an animated film to have a message, but hoo-boy, it can't be upfront about it - and, that the first act was all dancing which, well, it just wasn't. In fact, if I can recall, the first act is actually pretty heavy in setting up the environmental plot-line for the rest of the film. Is there dancing? You bet. But, being a musical, it's part of the storyline and it's not really trying to be ironic or goofy, so - what's the problem?

    It's strange, too - considering FSR gave "Happy Feet" a great review upon it's release. I dunno, mebbe you jus' wanna be different.

    I have to say I completely agree with the assessment of "Happy Feet". I watched this movie again very recently and was reminded of how thoroughly stupid the film is. You are also absolutely correct in what you say about WALL-E, Up and Bolt, movies I happen to really enjoy.

    A giant waddle backwards seems a bit of a stretch considering he's reprising a role in a film that won an Academy Award and was one of the top 10 highest grossing films of its year. Not that an Academy Award = great, but the film was actually pretty well received critically upon release. There is both artistic and financial merit to taking the role, even if you hated the film.

    Plus, it's very much in line with Williams' career decisions since the 90s. He'd do a The Fisher King and Good Will Hunting then follow it up with a Hook, or Flubber. Plus, his roles in family films are what probably allow him financially to warrant taking a role in something like World's Greatest Dad, The Big White, or One Hour Photo.

    I don't think the script has been publicly released, yet. There's really only one of Miller's screenplays widely available online, and that's "The Road Warrior."
