I love Pixar's work, too, but I don't think they've improved on the original Toy Story yet. Sure, their animation has advanced, but the original story is still their best film, IMO.

I'll be there with my daughter on opening day. I used to be anti-animation before I started watching Pixar's movies (and before having a kid). Their stories have impressed me.

But....when I first saw the trailer it bothered me that the animated water looked so murky. Is it just me?

Still, I'll be there.

I know I'll definitely not be seeing it at a General Cinemas near me.

I absolutely hate going out to see a movie anymore.

People just do not have any manners, or respect for others.

The only time I'll suffer the noise, and cell phones, and beepers, and seat kickers is for Matrix Reloaded, and Return Of The King.

However, when the DVD hits the stores I will be buying it.

Unless, of course, that turtle is the Jar-Jar of the Pixar world.

Aaaauuugh! Why do all these directors insist on using CG!
It looks like a cartoon!

To me the plot seems a little weak. Maybe I'm wrong. The whole movie about two fish looking for another fish? Couldn't they come up with something a little more...original? I'll wait for the DVD on this one.

I think it's safe to say that since this is a Pixar film, the plot is going to be pretty original. All the others have been so unique.

no way. I like pixar, they took toys and made them cooler, they took bugs and made them cooler, they took monsters and made them cooler, but freaking fish! The most boring creature on the planet. Even pixar wont pull this off.

Love the trailers and TV spots. And since I got nothing against fishes, gonna check it out for sure.

I think the plot's pretty original. I mean, when's the last time you've seen a movie about seafood looking for seafood. BTW, this movie isn't just about 2 fishes, there are ton of supporting casts.

I just saw a TV spot last night, with the little girl tapping on the glass and the starfish repeating "happy place, happy place, happy place."

One of the few movies that I've thought the TV campaign was as solid as the movie trailer.

I was in LA yesterday and saw the blue carpet being laid out for the premiere of this in front of El Capitan. Too bad I couldn't stay and watch.

I saw a preview screening a couple of days ago. The folks at Pixar do not disappoint....Finding Nemo is beautifully animated and packed throughout with humor and adventure with a touch of pathos.

The turtle is in the movie for just a very short time and seemed to be one of the more popular supporting characters among the people I talked to. The director actually does his voice!

Of the Pixar films, I still like the Toy Story movies the best, with Nemo next, then Monsters, Inc. and A Bug's Life. If you enjoyed their previous films, you won't be disappointed!
