> The animation is really impressive. Skin looks like skin--there are pores and everything. The other computer animated stories were about creatures with hard surfaces: plastic toys and insects. But this movie takes place in forests, fields, and swamps, and is about people and animals, and it all looks *real*.

The animation was clearly a big step up from previous films. It still had that angular, awkward quality to computer animation, but it really made me wonder how long it will be before it will be difficult to distinguish flesh characters from animations. The forms and colors are almost there; humanoid movement needs a great deal of work still. It's fun to think about what the artists could do with realistic animation. Outlandish characters, impossible stunts, infeasible locations, and small egos are all tempting possibilities.
