I get the feeling that Sinbad is already bad because it’s mythological and has scary creatures in it! Woo! Prepare your soul for doom!
Hmm. I’m no piscophile, but aren’t goldfish freshwater? Kind of awkward to have a freshwater fish in a movie largely set in the ocean.
I think they pretty much set themselves up for awkwardness with having the fish talk, Miller
I’ll let the author of The Two-Thousand-Pound Goldfish field that sticky one:
Can I toss in some only somewhat relevant Simpsons quotes? Such as
and
Sorry, couldn´t understnad a single word in that sentence.
I took my daughter and saw it, today. Pretty damn good, even if I was in a sold out showing with a gazillion screaming kids.
FWIW Ellen De Generes did an absolutely astoundingly good job. Her and Willem DaFoe’s voice acting stole the show, IMO.
I think Jesus was gay. All the scribes and pharisees were trying to nail him.
So, um, nitpicky question: since when is Alan Cumming gay? His imdb biography has him listed as formerly married to a woman, and romantically linked to Saffron Burrows.
I thought that was the Romans?
And the worst part of all this? We’re going to have to go through it all over again when the Christian Right finds out Albert Brooks is Jewish.

Sounds to me like an art department doing its job, just like Degeneres did hers: brilliantly. The job, after all, is to create a particular character - a fish, whose sexual orientation has nothing whatever to do with the story. The art department’s job is to make the fish look good, and a gold fish next to an orange clown fish wouldn’t be nearly as good looking as the blue Dory. The actor’s job is to bring the character to life. And Degeneres did a fantastic job, arguably the best in the show. I mean, isn’t the point of the reviewer’s idiocy that her sexuality has nothing to do with how well she does her job? The actor represents the fish, not vice versa.
We (the whole theater, in fact) were belly-laughing over the whale episode. It was hysterical. She does poignant well, too, and her timing’s impeccable.
Oh, and the aquarium was a salt-water tank. It said so specifically when they read the copy off the new filter the dentist installed.
With a name like that, he oughta be in porn films. Regardless of orientation!
Alan Cumming self-defines himself as “pansexual” or “omnisexual”, and has french kissed an ape to prove it ;).
Let me be the first to say “Hot monkey sex!” Ha!
Now let me be the first to run for the hills, dodging rotten tomatos…
Well of course they will! Doesn’t everyone remember how, after Disney’s Mulan was released all those kids wanted to be foul-mouthed standup comics?
(for those of you who don’t get it, the voice of the small dragon in Mulan was done by Eddie Murphy)
You say that as if it were a bad thing.
No, you’re thinking of The Simpsons.
Yes, let’s note that there was no outrage that Mulan used the voice talents of Harvey Fierstein - a known homosexual!
:eek:
The horror, the horror… :rolleyes:
Esprix
And here I thought the Christian Right’s uproar over Mulan was that it exposed kids to the pagan beliefs “those people” followed, such as praying to ancestral ghosts and thinking of dragons (Satan!) as benefactors. :eek:
