Well if it's completely animated then I'll go to see it for that fact. At least when everything's animated you don't have to endure the stark contrast of a real body and a fake one in the same movie (like a CGI Yoda talking to Obiwan).
That's true!

There's nothing wrong with the core of the story, which is why I think a movie would work a lot better than the written form. So far this movie is getting mostly decent reviews. 71% at Rotten 'Maters.
