Robbie Williams's part...

Drnnn. I didn't even know he was in this (I'M A BAD FAN!), but he was pretty damn good! Surprised me completel, since he hasn't done much acting in general. Sure he's been on tv a lot and performed in front of huuuge audiences, but the entertaining he does as a singer - while it is sort of acting - isn't the same as scripted acting of a character that isn't you. And look at Jon Stewart (whom I do love), who's performed in front of the camera for years, and even been in a couple of semi-successful movies, and yet pretty much... sucked.

You didn't know it? Amazing, that this work of Robbie has passed so many fans unaware. I like Robbie, though I wouldn't call myself a fan. I was impressed how good he was. And now I've got a problem. Whenever I see Robbie on TV I'm going like ''Dougal! I knew you'd make it!''.

Originally only watched the film because of Bill Nighy who voiced Dylan but came out to love all the characters nearly to death.

Yeah he's alright in it, but I've seen this film hundreds of times and I STILL can't believe that's Robbie. Everyone else sounds like them, but Doogal sounds nothing like Robbie at all imho.

I am ANYTHING but a pugnacious upstart
