The Alien Mutant vs The Spiritual Hoarse

[Captin "Hank" Murphy]

Which animated movie do you think will do better? Disney's "Lilo and Stich" or Dreamworks' "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron"?

From what I see from the previews and a few reviews, Lilo and Stich looks sounds like a extended a Saturday Morning Cartoon Special about depression, dead parents, and family. Being made out the era of Esiner-Disney, of course it has all the CGI effects, kiddie humor, and all the other bells and whisles to make the kiddies say "oooh aaah wow" so they can get all their LaS merchandice off the shelves and treat it like royalty, until the next Disney movie comes out and they'll just forget this one.(you are such a a-hole Esiner! :mad: ) This movie looks like it's for the guy who wants to see fancy eye candy.

Now Spirit look and sounds like an animated movie with substance. It doesn't have all the fancy CGI effects in ever shot, the goofy side-kick, the great evil powerful villan who wants to rule the universe, or all the other bells and whisles because it doesn't need it to tell a great story about having a free spirit. This movie looks like it's for those who want to see a good movie with a good story and substance.

Even though I like Spirit more than LaS, most likely LaS will make more will do better because Disney has been advertising it like crazy and the story in Spirit maybe a little advance for the kiddies.

I'm going to say Lilo and Stitch. I've been eagerly awaiting this movie for a long time now and have been even further encouraged by the hilarious trailers that the Mouse House has put together. While I think Spirit looks absolutely gorgeous I don't think the film has the staying power it needs. Not only that but I think the character of Stitch is one of the coolest looking character designs to be released by Disney in some time.

Hopefully Lilo and Stitch will be everything I believe it to be - a funny and entertaining movie that will keep me entertained through out the entire feature.

I'm looking forward to Spirit more than Lilo & Stitch. I may end up seeing both of them, but who knows.

Lilo & Stitch seems like it will probably be a heart-warming story, but nothing in the previews make it look all that funny to me. I'm sure there will be funny moments, but overall this doesn't look like a comedy, it looks like a feel-good family movie and I'll wait for the DVD for that. Spirit on the other hand looks like it's going to be something special and quite adventurous. There's a certain maturity that the previews also seem to suggest with the story and I like that.

...the movie I'm MOST anticipating out of all other animated films this year, however, is Treasure Planet. I'll probably see that at least a couple times.
