The Hobbit is a children’s book. Or at least it used to be. Before J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantastical Middle-Earth saga became fodder for a billion-dollar-grossing, Oscar-winning, New Zealand labor-law rewriting mega-franchise, The Hobbit was a classic of juvenile literature, written in a conversational style that was perfect for young readers. If you read the book as a kid, you almost certainly wanted to see it adapted into a movie. Today, your wish is finally granted. Kind of. There is a Hobbit movie in theaters. But it’s hardly a kids’ movie. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is a massive battleground epic,...

Once again, a simple and straightforward and transcendent and beautiful book by Dr. Seuss has been turned into a candy-colored 3-D animated movie with celebrity voices and excruciatingly inappropriate merchandising partners. The Lorax might be better than past efforts to translate the author’s vision to the big screen — EW’s Owen Gleiberman rates it a B+ — but really, the best thing that can possibly come of The Lorax is that it will encourage parents everywhere to buy or (gag) download the book that inspired it. It’s difficult to describe the particular magic of Dr. Seuss’ writing. The author,...

"The Lorax" is easily Dr. Seuss' best story and has been my favorite for years (with "The Butter Battle Book" being a close second). It opens with a young boy in a desolate world who meets a shut-in named The Once-ler. He tells the youngster a tale of how lush and colorful the world used to be before greed and blind industrialization turned it into a grey wasteland. And he does it all in Seussian rhyme. Then he shoots his seed off the balcony and down into the boy's hands... For years fans of "The Lorax" have had to settle for 1972's twenty-five minute TV special if they wanted to see the title character tromp his way through a decimated Truffula forest. Now though the creative team behind last year's CGI animated hit Horton Hears A Who! has set their sights on this story of ecological devastation and redemption. Ken Daurio...
