if you like the 1st one and thought THAT was a must buy then this one is even better IMO. Also looke for the $5 off coupon as well and I think Blockbuster has it on sale for $22.99 as well.

I loved the first one and was less impressed with the second. Both are gorgeous BDs though.

Had this since Monday, can't wait to watch it probably tomorrow. I have heard that it is pretty good, put it in just to check out the picture quality for a little bit and it was fantastic.

Just watched it. Very nice picture even if I don't care for that style of CGI animation. It had it's fun and funny moments though. I thought the TRUEHD was pretty good though not on the level of a KUNG FU PANDA.

Just watched this (from Netflix). It was cute, but definitely a rent and not a buy - the highlight are the penguins. PQ and sound were both good.

One thing not mentioned in the review is that there are two 11-minute segments from the upcoming "Penguins of Madagascar" TV show under the "More Penguins" link of "Extras." Both are quite cute, with HD picture and dolby sound.

Just got this tonight myself. Haven't watched my copy yet but went through some of the extras. Make sure in the More Penguins section that you press right on the 2 selections to access 4 short slips from the show. (Easter Eggs i guess) 2 can be found for each listing under the more penguins option.

For any lurking Canadian on the board. Future Shop has it on sale for $25 this week. Got it price matched at Best Buy and got it with my Skipper Beanie Baby included.

Put in the camp of not liking the first one much but really liking the second. The second was a much better film, funnier, better story, etc.
