Nope, no kids to use as an easy excuse for those movies.
I used to fantasize doing illustration while working for Disney, and would have loved such a position turning two dimensional drawings into three. Now they have computers to do most that kind of planning and measuring.
Okay, if you had children you'd understand the movie better. It's about imagination and having an outlet for it. See "naturalman1975' post up thread.
I was nearly in tears at the end. I was so totally surprised by what was really going on that I had to re evaluate my sons' love for Legos and how I am so wrapped up in the "directions" that I don't use my own imagination much anymore.
