Not even going to bother

Okay, i haven't even seen it, nor do I intend to. I guess my commentary is that I wouldn't pay 8 bucks to see a cartoon. If this was 30 years ago, or 20 years ago, or even 15 years ago, there were special effects that just couldn't be done. The man hanging off a clock face in a 1930's movie is REALLY HANGING ON A CLOCK FACE! The job of the director was to make us think that the actor was in peril...it helps get us into the escapism. But a cartoon? We now have special effects that can make us believe men are fighting dragons, that orcs are marching to our walls, that elves are shooting bows....whatever....but to make a cartoon just seems a cheaper way of getting my 8 bucks. I won't slam the movie cuz i didn't bother to see it...but i won't be bothered to see it, either..
