Comment: You mentioned that if it worn't for the fact that "The Lion King" was released in 1994, you would've put it on the top 5 best list. If you did, which possition would you put it in, and how would it match up to "Kung Fu Panda 2" and "The Adventures of Tintin?"

Comment: Intro; Now let me by hypothetical and take a guess on what the lists will be like if you extended the list to top 6. B 6. Winnie the Pooh. 5.This film is full of depth and Puss still has the moves. B 4.I think that Ardmen is just what Sony Animation needed. B 3.This film shows us that westerns are not dead and they can work in animation, the characters are desert animals and I should know I live in Utah. B 2.Shen is indeed the best DreamWorks villain ever and it is nice that this studio has not given up on hand drawn animation. 1 Best.Good grief I love this epic film to bits. HM. I agree with you on 3D, Why didn't you tell me I love "The Lion King"! (don't anyone hate me for liking/saying it) W 6.Rio. W 5.It never clicked with me in any way whatsoever. W 4.The saddest thing about this film is I can actually see a good film out of this if we focused on Finn and Holly. W 3.My cousins can rant for hours on how bad this film is. W 2.The animation actually got worst from "The Polar Express" and this film is stupid. Worst.It was doomed, we had a good run with the first but it was no use. So far, 2012 has been shaping up to be better than 2011, but not as good as 2009 and 2010.

Comment: Arriety: Didn't see. Looks good, though. Lorax: Saw it. It was kind of a disappointment. Pirates: Didn't see it. Madagascar 3: Did not see. Don't care. Brave: Did not see, but looks much better than Cars 2. Ice Age 4: Didn't see, glad I didn't. ParaNorman: Will more than likely not see. Hotel Transylvania: Don't think so. Frankenweenie: Looks good. Can't wait to see it. Wreck-It Wralph: Considering it's about video game characters, it might work, or it might not. Not sure if I should see it. I want to see some more hand-drawn glory, Disney! Guardians: Looks interesting! Might watch it.

Comment: Toy Story 3 and The Lion King are both very, very, very overrated movies. I could write a whole book about why they are overrated. You act as if they both are flawless perfect masterpieces, which they are not.

Comment: @dylan- So the fact that he explained that Mars Needs Moms had no likable characters and was boring wasn't a good enough explanation for you?

I explain clearly my opinion on them. And seriously, please stop spamming the comments with these question. All your doing is just annoying me and Mr. Coat

Comment: You're reactions to each of the upcoming animated films were kinda vague. Which one are you the MOST excited about?

Comment: Thanks pokeanimal, Dylan, listen to what this guy said. And I do admit maybe I did overreact to Hotel Transylvania. It's just I'm not sure it'll work with a cast of 1/2 the stars of Grown Ups and Miley Cyrus XP. Don't get me wrong, I like Adam Sandler, but his recent stuff is just not that good.

Comment: You seem to be one of THOSE people... those who did NOT see "Leafie, a Hen into the Wild", a traditionally animated film from Korea (now available with official subtitles). Also, SHREK3ISAWESOMEHATERSGONNAHATE.

Comment: Also, here's what I think of the upcoming animated movies of 2012: "Arrietty": Not interested. "The Lorax": Danny DeVito as the Lorax. I wonder how that will turn out. "Madagascar 3": Maybe, maybe not. "Brave": OMG! That's gonna be awesome! "Ice Age 4": Can't wait to see that. "Hotel Transylvania": I'll wait for the DVD. "Frankenweenie": Can't wait for the trailer. "Wreck-It Ralph": Interesting idea. & "Rise of the Guardians": Sounds like a prequel to "Legend of the Guardians", doesn't it?

Comment: Best: #5: That was pretty good. #4: I didn't see this in theaters, but after hearing about how good it is, I wish i did. #3: That was one of the best of the year in my opinion? #2: OH YEAH! #1: That was BEYOND good! Worst: #5: It was okay. Glad I watched it once, but I'm not willing to watch it again. #4: I really like this movie more than its predecessor. #3: Haven't seen this one either, and I'm sure it's as mediocre as you say it is. #2: Goodness me, I HATED that movie too! #1: Saw that coming a mile away.

Comment: There is one thing I have trouble with Rango: WHAT THE HELL WAS THE EYEBALL IN BACKGROUND?! Please tell me it is not just a coincidence that the Disney classics are going to theaters in 3D. On the subject of new films of 2012...are you serious about the THIRD Madagascar film and a FOURTH Ice Age film?!

Comment: Okay, the two most recent comments really piss me off and I shall explain why as this applies to everyone with this mindset: (That fellow even stated something along these lines in his most recent video) It is NOT the JOB of a reviewer to BLINDLY AGREE WITH YOU!!!!! If all you're doing is looking at reviews to hear someone praise things you like while bashing things you don't, you clearly don't understand the concept of opinion and shouldn't be looking up Internet reviews in the first place! Just because Animat hates a movie you like, Richard, doesn't mean he SHOULD apologize to you because, guess what, it's his OPINION!!! And secondly, if you paid attention to his review of Cars 2 and look at the score he gave it, you'd know that HE NEVER CALLED IT A BAD MOVIE!!!!!! 6/10 IS A PASSING GRADE!!!!! WHAT OVERLY-STRICT SCHOOLS DO YOU GUYS GO TO WHERE 60% IS CONSIDERED A FAILING SCORE!!!!?? If you can't even try to comprehend where he's coming from when talking about these films, then stop watching his reviews because you clearly can't handle opposing views. (Oh, and Richard, it may piss you off that more than 75% of the people who saw Hoodwinked Too agree with Animat)

Comment: Best: 5. I really really liked this one! 4. I haven't seen this one yet. 3. This movie was more meh for me...it wasn't bad, just very odd. 2. While I don't like this movie as much as the first one, I still really like it! 1. Haven't seen it. Honorable Mention: I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! BTW, I saw Beauty and the Beast 3D, and I LOVED IT! Worst: 5. I actually liked this one! 4. I wish people would get off Cars 2's back, even if it is Pixar's worst IT'S STILL A REALLY GOOD MOVIE! 3. Never saw. 2. Never saw. 1. Never saw, AND I'M GLAD!
