My Take on the DVD
This was a great film and one that I now know which will become an instant holiday classic. I loved the animation and the concept. I have to say that after seeing this movie I am hoping that there may be a sequel or two in the future as this was such a fun show. On the DVD there are some great additional features that are featured on the DVD itself. I have to say that my favorite was the secret santa short. If you have never seen this show, you need to go and watch this today, you will not be disappointed!
