My kids like this better than Madagascar


Proving the rule that the more an adult likes a movie the less a young child will, and vice versa. I would prefer Madagascar, and my kids are OK with it, but they really love all the more childish (and annoying) things about The Wild.

I've come to think its a shame that Dreamworks rushed Madagascar out (ripping off The Wild) to ruin this movie.

It is way better than Madagascar. I used to be obsessed with this movie, and I hated Madagascar with passion for ripping it off -_-

completely agree.. Madagascar 1 & 2 are both terrible. The Wild is a much better film.

How can Madagascar be a rip off of The Wild if Madagascar was released before? I'm confused.

reply

Look at the CGI of both films. It's obvious The Wild was being made first. Madagascar looks rushed.

It could easily just be a case of different animation styles, it's nothing new. Are you trying to say any animated movie with a less realistic style was rushed?

When I became a man I put away childish things-fear of childishness & desire to be very grown up

reply

Not necessarily, but the fact that they choose a style easier to animate makes me wonder about it in lieu of the proximity of the two films' release.

I always found the Madagascar style of animation as a tribute to old Looney Tunes cartoons.
