  1. MightySilverWolf on

    Audience reception is very positive, so we’ll have to hope that it manages to leg out. *The Wild Robot* is going to be tough competition though.

  2. Okay, guys. **Transformers One** vs. **Ultraman: Rising**. Both are kaiju/mecha(?) animated films that were animated by Industrial Light and Magic. Which one do you like better and why?

  3. NotTaken-username on

    It’s a crowdpleaser but I can see word of mouth skewing more negative among parents of younger children. Despite being PG it’s surprisingly violent and even pushes the rating to its limits between that and the language.

    Could be a bit much for younger children, some families may opt for The Wild Robot instead.
