Really? Everyone else I've spoken to says Happy Feet was a preachy environmentalist movie (this from liberals, btw) that was nothing what they expected and, well, bad.

We watched Bednobs and Broomsticks the other day (GD hadn't seen it). I never realized before that this was a pretty sad grasp at Mary Poppins The Sequel. It has fun moments and the actors are great but there's a looming shadow over all of it....from the out of control inanimate objects to the street performer to the jaunt into an animated world....I'd know that sill-ya-wett anywhere. I loved it as a kid....
