MY CHILDHOOD IS OVER.

WHO AT SONY DECIDED TO TURN THE BEST CHILDREN’S PICTURE BOOK INTO A STUPID CG MOVIE WITH A DUMB STORYLINE?

I used to love this book. It always made me so hungry, especially because the citizens of Chewandswallow got to eat things like spaghetti and meatballs and pancakes all the time instead of miso soup, bean sprouts, rice and natto. But it was also amazing because there was never any explanation for their strange weather system: it just was, and when things got out of control, they sought a solution. There was no main character, no weird invention, no science behind it. Building a raft out of giant slices of white bread was normal.

Then again, my memory of the book is pretty fuzzy…but my gut feeling tells me that this movie is JUST WRONG.
