Even the preview was boring.

I completely forgot that Patrick Stewart deigned to lend his voice to this movie. Wow.

I loved that movie as a kid. My brother and I would easily watch once a week...I had dialogue from the preview memorized. Oh man!

@3: Same, except maybe the "once a week" part. But it was fun to watch. Come on, it's a movie about BOOKS. It's better than half the crap that gets pumped out for kids today.

Ah, Christopher Lloyd. He even makes up for yet another movie with Machullahy Culkin (O ye of hard-to-spell name) screaming.

Unfortunately, no trailer ("bande annonce"), only a still from La Lectrice (miou miou).
