I personally hate how hollywood thinks their little 3DCG escipades look good. I saw some posters at the movie theater, and I'd say that they did a rather accurate job of making garfield look more like a real cat... But... -.- *sigh* my goodness, what is John Arbuckle going to look like? And what on earth are they going to do as a plot? The old alien invasion gig, perhaps? I'll bet you anything (that isn't worth anything) that there's going to be a fast moving chase scene with upbeat music -.- *sigh*. There's a lot to be sceptical about, considering Hollywood's track record. But as one final note, I hate plastic looking 3D. I'd rather see cell shaded 3D than poorly lit plastic 3D. Now cell shaded 3D isn't so bad... if only it was animated to look like it is moving organically, instead of something that looks like it would fit right in with the crapimation they feed us in the majority of video games.
A friend of mine pointed out the trailer at Garfield.com (http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/garfield/). Actually, the character you HAVE to worry about is ODIE. They turned him into a beagle-like dog that looks NOTHING like the yellow long-eared drool-faucet we know and love. Heck- he doesn't even have a SPOT on his side like he used to.
(Thats another thing I dislike. They went all out to make sure Garfield looks as close to his cartoon self as possible, and then they skimp on Odie. They did the same thing with Brain and Penny in the Inspector Gadget movie... Well, they also made Dr. Claw look entirely different from how I imagined him but thats different..)

Finally, I noticed that most of the CRAPPY movies come out around my BIRTHDAY... Why is that? Am I a jinx?





....(Oh, and just for the record, one 'T' in 'Mat'. It's short for 'Mateoin'.)
