I haven’t see The Polar Express, myself, but kaylasmom went to see it with Michaela when it came out. What took her out of the film was the voice of the Know-It-All kid who sounded like Mandark from Dexter’s Laboratory.
If I did see it, I wonder if I might have the same response.

No wonder … it’s the same guy who does both voices; Eddie Deezen.

1980: Watching Empire Strikes Back at one of those glorious old theaters with balconies and ass-numbing seats:
Yoda’s first line: “Feel like what?”
The whole audience: “GROVER!!!”

No, I don’t wear glasses. But I think this would still bug me if I did.

I wear glasses and it takes me out of a movie as well.
For me, it’s product placement.
Funny thing is, i’m fucked either way.
If they use a real product, i sit there thinking “Fucking product placement is ruining movies.”
And if they use a fake product so they don’t need product placement, i sit there thinking, “Hey, that’s a fake product.”
Either way, i’m sucked out of the experience momentarily.
So, you’re pretty much stuck with Quest for Fire, eh?
