The Polar Express

[Santa Monica]

Check out this trailer. Looks to be really cool, like Pixar quality IMO. It's like the photo realism of Final Fantasy with a better, more engaging story.

Looks really cool. A year away, though!

Human figure animation is really improving.

Wow, that looks fantastic. I'm excited for that one to come out. I used to love that book. I still read it almost every year around Christmas time. I definitely will have to read it again when I go home for Thanksgiving.

I thought it looked like crap.

Good trailer. I was suprised on the animation for the film. I thought it was live-action. Anyone else besides Tom Hanks gonna be in it?

I can't believe they wasted that beautiful animation on a dumb Christmas story with Tom Hanks.

The trailer might have been mildly entertaining if it built up to SOMETHING. It came out looking like no big deal.

AWESOME! I too heard about this film a while back and thought it was going to be live action. Animated makes it far more surreal and amazing!

This is such a great story.

WOW!!

Tom Hanks' voiceover skills are very underwhelming, at least in that trailer. The animation was not really that great, and the composition was horrible.

I expect more from Zemeckis and Hanks.

Wow, pretty amazing looking, but I'm not quite sure if I'm on-board (no pun intended) with this hyper-realism in CGI. I prefer animation to be more stylized. Technically awesome though.

Your optimism astounds me.
