Gack :;recoils in horror::

I just got back from seeing 'Doogal' with David and the kids. It was free; they're giving away cinema tickets with cereal and that was all that gave me comfort.

It is, and prepare to gasp in horror British people my age, the US version of the recent Magic Roundabout film, which wasn't supposed to be very good to start with.

No, I don't know why they spell it 'Doogal' when his name is 'Dougal'.

No, I don't know why Dougal has gone from being a grumpy old man to having a chirpy boy voice.

No, I don't know why Joanna Lumley was replaced by Whoopi Goldberg as Ermintrude the Cow when other people, like Ian McKellen, were still there.

No, I don't know why there were fart jokes, blatant mentions/homages of LotR, Pirates of the C, Harry Potter, CSI, Indiana Jones, Lara Croft and others my shell-shocked brain has mercifully forgotten.

I didn't like it. I'm not happy.
