| I watched Monsters vs. Aliens last night on a whim, and was glad I did.  Pleasantly surprised by how funny and delightful it was.
 
 Toy Story 3 was amazing, and I loved it.  But I've been consistently surprised and pleased with this year's offerings by the "lesser" animation studios - with How to Train Your Dragon, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, and now Monsters vs. Aliens.
 
 It's true I haven't seen all that many live-actioners this year, but it's seeming to me that the animateds are more consistently good.
 
 
 
 Oh, and I loathed once-tops Disney's entry into the market.  The Princess and the Frog was horrible (imo).
