...and reading a few reviews.

"Frenetic pace" seems to be the theme - it's in constant motion with the "motion-capture" technology.

Of the films out currently I want to see, it's at the bottom of my top 5.

  ...those are #1 and #3 on my list to see.
  
  A number of critics have put Dragon in their year's 10 best.
  
  Tin-tin?
  
  Not in one list I've seen.

    haven't seen the original or are Hollywood hacks.
    Now, I'm assuming reasonable critics that couldn't help but snicker at the remakes of "Psycho" and "Let the Right One In" that shamelessly copied the originals almost frame-by-frame.
    The lack of originality in Hollywood is only surpassed by the lack of critical awareness.

      ...is nearly 2-1/2 hours long and just by the previews, I can see it's much different than the Swedish version which I've seen.
      
      Neither film is original since they are based on a popular book, which I've read.
      
      Tin-tin is not really original either, based on a comic book.
      - Takes all the original and adds more stuff. Your point about Tin-Tin is illogical. nt - tinear 08:54:42 12/28/11 (2)
