    Sad, I thought this could be cute/thoughtful. I'm probably going to see it anyway sometime, my Dad has a man-crush on The Rock.

    That's disappointing, to say the least. I was so hoping that this movie would be fun to watch. The acid-peeing alien dog straight out of Alien and the WALL-E-like cute Rover dog are just about the only reasons now for me to watch this, given all the reviews I've read. The question is, though, are those two characters enough to satisfy me? I suspect not.

    So why do they look like they're from the 50's? Is there a backstory to that?

    @Pessimippopotamus: Yeah, given how much the Humaniacs look like astronauts (and they're called freaking "Humaniacs"), I thought we'd get some explanation. I bet it was in an earlier draft. This movie feels like it's been through a lot of drafts.

    @wanion: and instead of a bunch of penis tentacles they are going to give us a creature who has over a 100 penis tentacles and can subdue at least 40 girls at one time.

    An entire horror cartoon label? Awesome. Glad to see Disney can be free with their mother-killing and hidden sex references.

    I applaud the measure. We'll see how it really delivers when the first few projects hit the screen, but any progress in Western animation towards a medium rather than a genre is wicked news. Go Disney!

    "darker slate of animated films than the usual Disney cartoon fare"

    You mean, like The Black Cauldron or Land Before Time (the first one) or N.H.I.M.? Sure, I'm in anyday.
