The only animation I'd ever like is stuff like final fantasy/beowulf. It looks so real.:eek::rolleyes:
I would prefer a film with actors though.

I believe it that it depends on some factors. if they only have a master set of people secialed in live films, but who have no experienced in any animation, then certain parts, like in the riddle, [spoiler]when Mearad turns the rock into a lion, or when the montain crashes down[//spoiler] will be ruined

Were if they are tured in a distored animated cartecter, but the land animation is good. It'll still ruin the mood.

Thats why I think a little of bother, in order to add the magic but keep it real.

I do NOT want the movies to animated b/c they usually screw those up big time. They make the people look all goofy and weird and it messes with your mentall image of them.

With normal people they make it more realistic and interesting b/c you can actually see REAL emotions on their faces.

I agree and disagree. I think that with the technology that they have now they can make emotions on animated character real and beleivable enough to get the point across to the viewer. and as for the real part i don't think it can actually be real unless the actors are actualy experiencing what the characters in the book are, which can't happen.
to me any movie made about the books will ruin my mental image but if they did make a movie i would rather it be animated that way i don't have to hate who they chose to play the characters and thus not be able to enjoy the books afterwards because i'd have the mental image of the actor/actress that i hate. if they made it in animation i'd still have the freedom to keep my mental image.

I agree with that point of view for animation, Daniel Radcliffe will now forever be my image of Harry Potter which is just awful...:( And that happening to the Pellinor books would be terrible! :eek:

True as that may be, (OMG, I sound like a sciencey person,AH.
um anyways,
when the movies are animated, the characters loose some of their look, if you know what I mean, or they loose some of the....the......the.......the......the realistic thingy that you get from the movie if it's done by ppl.
