If anyone has access to
Variety there's a cool cover story on all the "tent-pole" would-be box office hits like
Spidey 3,
Shrek and
Harry Potter this summer....
One of the photos they had on the cover was, apparently, a character from the upcoming "
Bratz" movie--now THAT looked awful.

I've never seen any CGI, EVER, that looked so plastic, rubbery, and doll-like!
(Or maybe that was the point???)
Basically, it makes
Hoodwinked look like
The Incredibles!

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

I loved
Hoodwinked to! Nice animation, and interesting story! Winning combination.
I'm also exited for the sequel! Which I hear, is getting a bigger budget.

Hmmm.

Well I saw a picture of one of them on the cover of Variety, and I'm pretty sure they were only talking about summer franchises.
At least it LOOKED like a Bratz girl. I"m not an expert or anything....
Either way, it was HORRIBLE CGI. Just putrid.

I heard from one of the producers on the Bratz movie that it was going to be live action. I forgot who the producer was (I want to say Paula Abdul but she was probably drunk if she's the one who said it) I know they said it. And I'm not sure if anyone brought this up already but there it is.

Did anyone see Sacha accept the award for Borat? I can't believe how different he is....! He's British, talks like a British guy!

(Speaks very good Hebrew too, so funny how few people knew that's what he was speaking in the movie!

)
He's a genius.....
Can't wait to see him in Mad 2! I hope he's in this one even more.

Another over-exposed Brit guy, like Gervais.

QUICK_EDIT
You don't think he's talented? Did you get to see Borat?
I found it quite funny, also you can see the deleted scenes on YouTube! (some kinda raunchy

)
BTW I still love Andy Ricter and Cedric's guys!

Song?
With three from DreamGirls and Newman just having won for Monsters recently? Your/Our Town was a very bland track.

I love Our Town - but I don't think it will win the Oscar.
