I'm not surprised. That's a genuinely good movie, and ought to do well anyplace where people appreciate animation.

And anywhere the movie's content hasn't been distorted by an ill-conceived advertising campaign (durn it, WB- what were you thinking???)

[PeppeRaskell1]

Sabotage, probably.

Has the movie premiered anywhere else? How's it doing?

Well, I'm not surprised at all. It's a good movie. I'm like Sharklady, the WB commercials could annoy people. So could the music videos on Cartoon Network.

I'm not supprised. The foreign countrys like anything with good special effects and action or animated. Why do you think they made Spy Kids 2 or Jurasic Park 3 when they are bad movies? Thats were people make the real money from places like South America, Africa, Australia, or Europe. Asia doesn't count because they are on to Hollywood's scemes. ;)
