@Klebert L. Hall: Between the "milking " machine and the implied cannabalism, I doubt Pixar would touch it.

Great campy movie tho'!

I'm optimistic that, if anyone can plant the seed of conservationism in the hearts of a generation of kids, Pixar can.

Yeah, and i used to think a Pixar movie about a rat cooking in a French restaurant had to be the "worst idea ever."

"Apparently the world is ready for a zany romantic comedy about extinction and forced breeding."

Nah, that was A Boy & His Dog , and it happened 30 years ago...

I just don't see the humor in the extinction of any species, much less breeding in a kids movie. This is gonna suck hard.

Forced breeding in a kids movie? Good luck with that!

As long as it doesn't go from cute penguin movie to "don't overfish the arctic circle" I'm cool.
