[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 3847629, member: 20741"] Well - I had seen much of this before at Gencon - so it was not a surprise. The stills posted on the DragonLance movie site promised this level of quality for the past 9 months. People kept saying "those are just production stills". Yeah well - I know a *lot* about CGI and a reasonable amount about 2D anim. Those stills were looking bad from the get go. Look - you get what you pay for, more often than not. This was farmed out to an Indain animation company on the cheap and we got an on-the-cheap animated movie. It may be that it's actually decent when viewed as a whole. And....then again, it probably won't be. I'm a huge DL fan of course, so I'll buy it just the same, either way. The thing which bothers me the most though is that DragonLance is WotC's #1 potential film property. You would think that if they are going to bother to get something RIGHT, they would have got THIS something right. Better - FAR better to not do it at all then get it wrong. And who knows - it might still turn out ok - but I have been underwhelmed to date and continue to be. The music, however, appears to be remarkably good for a feature of this quality and budget - so there is some hope for it. [/QUOTE]
