I know the story. Read it to both my kids.

I am sure we will buy the movie and show it at slumber parties.

Guido - dd not not know the story line?  There is a book and an original movie... I liked the original movies, so I'm hesitant to see if because I figure I will be disappointed.  But the other sources are heavy on the environmental message so I would assume this would be also.

Other being a movie based on an environmental activist type book... is the movie well done?

Nope, didn't know the story and, frankly, wouldn't matter. My 6 y/o enjoyed it, which makes it a-okay in my book. As for being "well done", I found other attempt at Seuss books better. Still, I wasn't disappointed. Can't go terribly wrong with Ed Helms, Danny Devito, and Betty White.

Now, "Project X", that one there SUCKED so bad I walked out. First time I ever did that.

guido, you mean this http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1636826/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1636826/)? I wouldn't go see that if they paid me for it, and I mean serious money.

Did you go see "Jack & Jill" with Adam Sandler? If so, I don't think I would hire you.

So with so many movies being geared towards saving the enviroment, and you can pick and choose from the animated movies, how is this different from this combination of a Crosby, Stills, and Nash song that was not part of a movie, but was released as a music video showing clips of the movie set to their song? Thirty years later the difference is what you want to save, but the message from Hollywood is the same.

I have no idea why I thought "Project X" was about monkey's.
