Saw it. Reminded me of my youngest when he was learning to swim. I laughed out loud at, “are you cussing with me.” Very funny!

After spending some time piecing the trailers together. I realized that this movie is going to be just awesome. Did anyone catch one of the farmers trying to swim in a pool? I paused it and it looked hilarious!

You guys are taking your kids…my kid is taking me. He is now 25 and grew up on Roald Dahl. If the trailer is any indication of what the film will be, it is going to be a treat.

I found out that the the middle third is close to the book. This adaption is looking pretty awesome. I’m taking my kids this weekend. You will have to tell me what you think of it.

That’s pretty sweet that you got to be involved in the conference call. My 4th Graders and I just finished reading the book. Knowing the movie was coming out I wanted them to be familiar with the book before they saw it over Thanksgiving. I fully intend to take my kiddos to it as a family outing over the holiday.
I think the book had some great literary qualities to it (I use Roald Dahl a lot) and I’m going to be curious to see which parts of the book actually made it into the movie. Though the book story is brief, hey, they made a movie out of Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs and Where the Wild Things Are so why not Fantastic Mr. Fox. It seems to be the trend!
