Well, I feel pitty for all those who can't speak french or german.
About the animation,
Partial it is more standard, a good standard, and partial it is wow.
The walk of Enchaton into the pyramid, is soft and smooth, the moving of the feet are great, can't describe it other ways.
I think I can seperate the work with ASP and the other techniques.
Just, the cut of the film is not always good.
The story itself, nice but not real amazing, as you described.
I wished they had the time to screw it up a little bit more.
Abd the music? hehehe, yes, I've got the soundtrack CD, no, not my favourite.
During this time I discovered an other animation movie by Michel Ocelot
"Azur & Asmar - The Princes' Quest"
3D - but you think it is a living picture from an amzing childrens book or old ornaments from old books or arabian buildings, played by old fashioned marionetts.
(No Pixar style!)
For me it is the better choice, and the soundtrack is also great.
