I am not particularly interested in any movie where the biggest star
is the computer animation department. If I just want to watch a
Roadrunner cartoon I will watch one of the originals with the coyote
on the Acme rocket

It's a little more than that. It's really an experiment in motion
capture and in that sense, it more than suceeds according to people I
know who have seen it and are into movies.

I will probably like it if only because of what you can do with motion
capture and animation. I enjoy animated films.

Plus, the more they experiment with motion capture in terms of CGI,
the better and better the movies are going to be.

Think "Matrix" meets "Pirates of the Carribean" meets "Shrek". :)

The SFX are giong to be spectacular. "Transformers" is a fair example
of how far the state-of-the-art has come - that movie was awesome.

Yes, except for the plot line and the acting, if you could follow it.
