All I kept thinking as I watched the opening backstory was that Pixar would have done this a lot better in a quarter of the time. Let's just say I was pretty bored until Maximus the horse showed up. If it weren't for the horse, this film would have been a complete waste of time. The chameleon (Did the Chameleon have a name?) continues in a long line of Disney sidekicks and will be stocked as a plush toy in a store near you.
The songs were a bit disconcerting except for the one at The Snuggly Duckling. I'm thinking the entire film should have been set at the Snuggly Duckling. Those were the most entertainingly drawn characters and seemed to be having the best time. I think the bar was just down the road from the Thieves Bar in Shrek where Puss n Boots hangs out.
The film had a few laughs. The mother didn't die, which was odd for our blood thirsty Disney masters.
The most entertaining thing on the DVD was a quick trip through Disney's 50 animated features. The clips went by pretty quick and it was tough to guess all the names of the films as they showed the two second clips. I think I got about 35 of the 50.

So much for the flickr badge idea. Dammit
