Meet the Robinsons — Please!

First, read Syd's post.

Now, go see it.




Seen it yet?
Well, if you can't be persuaded ...
ANIMATION WOW. I wasn't overly won over by it at the beginning... some of it was the stiff rigs of the characters as we don't meet any of the 'main' ones (besides Louis) right off the bat, but WOW did it ever get good. And Dick Zondag needs an Annie for that Bowler Hat Guy. Holy smokes. He wins. I think I might have to join Syd's church.
The story ... well, the story is good. It's rather frenetic and I kind of lost track of where I was once or twice, but it kept me so entertained I didn't notice. And it was genuinely entertaining, not just gag-to-gag-to-gag ... I mean, it was that too, but somehow it worked, just like it was totally random and absurd but worked. How did it work? Why does this not work in other movies? They try, but it fails! But the Robinsons can do it! How?! I don't know! But I do know that the Piñata directors need to watch it because THAT is zany yet fulfilling entertainment, dangit.

And: 2DBB203 ... is this a secret code? 2D Be Back..... what? Am I totally off track? What else can 2D stand for?
AND AND AND: THE NEW DISNEY ANIMATION TITLE CARD THINGY ... YES. YES. omg yes. Together with the quote at the end... I love you, Lasseter. It might not have looked like it for a while but you win. Along with Dick Zondag.

Ok, I'm crashing. Uhhh... yeah. Roughly 15 pages of sketchbook today, but not scanning them tonight, oh no.

Oh, no, I know that, goodness yes... I'm just wondering about the specific meaning for the 'BB203' part of the license plate. Assuming I've correctly deciphered the '2D' part. I mean, gee, look at the new Walt Disney Animation Studios title card, that positively screams '2D!! WE LOVE 2D! THAT IS WHAT WE ARE ABOUT!'
