It's big for a reason.

Comments: I've wanted to get into more animation films for awhile now, but I just seem to prefer live action given the choice. I've tried to rectify that at certain points, but it's never really worked out. Anyway, a buddy of mine let me borrow this as a "thanks" for letting him borrow John Carter; I'm notorious for not letting anyone, regardless of affiliation, borrow my movies. For whatever reason, I was in a trusting mood that day. So in return, I checked out Megamind tonight and rather enjoyed it. It's a fun romp that also serves as a good spoof of the superhero genre. I thought Will Ferrell's voice acting was really well done, and the story, while a bit cursory, was still entertaining. Will this lead to more animation diversions? Probably not, but you never know.
