Weak CGI grafted into an embarassingly bad 80s-quality cartoon. It looks barely worth even direct-to-video distribution... unless they bundle it with the book.I'll wager by rough cut, they were refering to the choppy mish-mash of action scenes; that trailer had no cohesion whatsoever.Because honestly, unless they're going to completely redraw the artwork and rebuild/re-render the CGI, what you saw is pretty much what you're gonna to get.So be prepared for yet another craptacular D&D film experience.Because they don't have a smart producer like Avi Arad working for them.Remember every single Marvel-related movie or TV series sucked in various degrees until Avi started producing the animated X-Men in '93. Thereafter Marvel has released some pretty reliable entertainment (though Ghost Rider was laughable hack).Fantasy still lags behind most of the other genres, and D&D has no strong iconic figures compared to literature or comics, so I seriously doubt you'll see anything resembling a Peter Jackson-quality D&D-flavor film any time soon.I really wish they'd partner-up with the Japanese or even the Koreans. Maybe we'd finally get a high-quality animated movie with some solid western-style pacing and story-telling without their hard-to digest moé iconography.</blockquote>
