I found the live stuff much more compelling (both technically and dramatically)--the CG was mostly ridiculous giant blue people running around plastic looking forests. I'd like to see it again in 2D just to see if that changes my perspective.
Like all the people, but the trailer didn't really give me any desire to see it. The great reviews made me go and it was really enjoyable. It's hard to say exactly what it was - good performances, smart script, etc., but it was a nice adult story.
Emily hadn't seen it. It's OK, but not the best ever for sure. I couldn't really tell what was different between the theater version and the "unrated," but it's been months.
log your movie viewing habits, whether viewing at home or out at the theater. log how many times you might watch a movie from your own collection within a span of time, too.

@Milky That's not exactly a ringing endorsement for Liz Berkley now is it?

Emily made me watch this because I'd never seen it and it's like her mother's favorite film.
WTF?

Zach Galifinakis still kills, though.

Netflix DVD (had since May)
I'd never seen it. It was OK, but I didn't really love it. Like Avatar, it's a James Cameron movie with too many endings.
