Take the Motion Capture Toys AWAY from Zemekis

I was going to say "poor Robert Zemekis", but I think I will change that to "poor kids that have to see a Robert Zemekis movie".
.
The latest from him is "Mars Needs Moms."  Yet another masturbatory exercise in "motion capture" that yeilds highly creepy images and movies that don't make money.  Just because motion capture gives him a stiffie - is there any reason we have to suffer this drek. On the creepy index, this ranks above Beowulf, but below Jim Carrey's A Christmas Carol.  Still nothing can come close to the ick factor of "Polar Express" (All Aboard the Train of Doooooommm.)

Finally, I can come out of the closet about the Polar Express. I found it so dark and disturbing that I haven't seen any of the other motion capture films. The promos for the Jim Carrey Christmas Carol made me want to run screaming from the room. It's all so creepy. Just because you can do a thing, doesn't mean you should do a thing. -svh
