ScootsMagoo came out of the closet to say:
I would have given this a mere 5, but the subtle Spinal Tap reference gives it a 5.5(which is like 11). If you missed it, it's a poster in Fiona's bedroom. It features 2 guys playing guitar, two midgets in the corner and the word STONEHENGE.

AH! HELL YEAH I SAW THAT! I kept trying to see if they had an 18" Stonehenge on the poster couldn't tell.

I thought this movie was fantastic. I really didn't expect it to be better than the first (which I loved). And I guess it really wasn't b/c it felt just like the first to me. Like they made 'em at the same time and the writers were at the peak of their wit throughout the entire thing. It just felt like a continuation of the first one (I'm talking about quality here...obviously it's a continuation b/c it's a sequel) and that's a GOOD thing.

Technically some of the human animation STILL gets to me. In some scenes like the King in the bar under a cloak it seems totally motion captured but in all the others it seems a little too stiff. But that's really all that bothered me tecnically. The facial animation was stellar. Christ when Charming is putting on the BK Crown and just staring at the King while chewing his food...just go back and watch his facial animation...subtle and PRICELESS

There are a ton of things I want to mention but I'll just say that it's just fantastic overall.

I laughed out loud a LOT during this movie (which I rarely seem to do now-a-days :( ). However there is one scene in particular where I just loving lost it and was weeping for five minutes straight. The hairball scene...Jesus H Christ I was crying...my contacts were gumming up...I couldn't see the screen I was laughing so hard. If you've had a cat and seen them choke up a hairball before it's all the funnier.
