People need to watch the animated film before the live action. The only thing different was how a few of the characters looks changed. Other than that, it was SPOT ON FOR EVERYTHING! My expectations were low because of Disney but dream works BLEW IT OUT OF THE PARK! I think it’s because the guy that wrote and directed the animated film also did the same for the live action film. I don’t even want to watch the animated film anymore the live action was just so well put together. And the fact that Gerard butler reprised his role as Stoic the Vast?!?? OMG! I can’t wait to buy this movie to keep at home so I can’t watch it over and over again. I’m so excited for the second film that’s going to be released in 2027
