I know that everytime I long for a time gone by that I risk being tagged as old and out of step with the new generation but I just can't let this pass without commenting on it.
Have you noticed that most of the animal movies don't really have animals in them at all ? They have animated caricatures or computer generated animals endowed with human voices and personalities. Or, god forbid, they have people with octopus heads as in the recent Pirates of the Caribbean movie.
Case in point, I slept through "Finding Nemo" because it did not hold my interest - even with the famous personalities voicing the parts , but one could not possibly have slept through "Old Yellar", "My Friend Flicka, "Lassie Come Home", or any of those great movies which had real animals!
I guess it is easier to artificially generate an animal than it is to train a real one but I would rather see real Penguins any day than hear Tom Cruise imitating a skunk - oh wait, maybe it is more realistic than I think - - -
