I disagree with it being interesting, but this is coming from somebody who never really cared about Ebert.It seems if you are an Ebert fan you'll like the movie, if you're not you'll leave the movie wondering why you should even care about everything you saw.

But the point is that it's not the big moments in your life that make you, but the many small ones. Yeah, I saw it and really have to disagree strongly. The movie's biggest theme was that life isn't just a series of milestones, it's the daily interactions, it's the small moments, that are random and sporadic yet somehow still meld into a complete picture in the hindsight. The more I think about it, the more this movie was a solid A+ this year, my third so far. (Other two were the LEGO Movie and Snowpiercer, three completely different movies. I can't really say which is my favorite because they are all so different)

WarCraft is also an original movie if you are counting Tarzan and Angry Birds. (For that matter so is Zootopia, Shazam, The Sandman, and Giants) -

I wouldn't say animation is underperforming this year,1.LEGO Movie was a huge hit2.The Nut Job over performed for what it was.3.Was anybody expecting Peabody and Sherman to gross over 115m? I felt like that was its expectation4.Rio 2 nearly matched the first, it did very well for what it was.5.HTTYD2 definitely underperformed but that's a single movie6.Planes 2 underperforming? Should we be shocked? That speaks more of how audiences are finally getting tired of the franchise. (Each one has dropped from the predecessor)I think we can say animation is underperforming this year if three of these happen1.Big Hero 6 fails to hit 200m2.The Book of Life fails to hit 100m3.The Boxtrolls fails to hit 50m4.Penguins of Madagascar fails to hit 150m

Eh, I don't really like Berg as a director. Friday Night Lights was pretty good, but everything else he has made so far has been a miss for me. He can direct some good war action though, so I would love to see him get his hands on a good war movie that can focus more on the action without losing out on the real importance of the story, like with Lone Survivor, that focused way to much on the battle and credited his survival mostly to his teammates, where in actuality the book focuses much more on the man who housed him and protected him. The film breezes past that, which is a shame given how that's the most interesting part of the story with the most commentary on the real situation in the Middle East. Lone Survivor should have been a drama with action, not an action with dramatic parts that didn't seem to fit. It was more about patriotism than the actual story. Anyways, I think Berg (Despite showing some potential as a director) would be a bad choice for this, monster movies definitely dont fit his niche.
