Nothing like a little revisionist history...

You mention Pixat in passing, but you didn't linger near enough to give proper honor. Pixar started the industry with Toy Story and they continue to lead.

When slighting Pixar over the humans in Toy Story, you forgot to point out Dreamwork's hokey humans in Father of the Pride. I'm just guessing that you didn't have enough research to speak to that so I thought I would help you out.

Also, did you consider Pixar's use of rendering techniques that were used to create Sulley's hair in Monster's Inc? Rhetorical, I know, of course you didn't. No one else has come close to sopying that yet. Donkey may have been a lively character, but a matted, lively character.

I realize that you need to be seen congratulating Dreamworks Animation for their new IPO, but really. Don't trash your integrity in the process - c'mon, love yourself!
