While you may not agree
with the tenets of a corporate holiday just remember that even robots
have the capacity to love, as demonstrated in Romie-0 and Julie-8!
Nelvana are probably
best known for their oddball seasonal specials, so jumping off from
that this adaptation of Shakespeare's ubiquitous play is a
good fit for the supposed most romantic day in the calendar, right?
The sweeping tale of young love, family feuds and tragic ends is
compressed down into a family friendly half hour, workmanlike but
nonetheless energetic, though it does raise some alarming questions
about the far future society it depicts. Robot rights, sleazy
spacemen and other animated versions of the Bard's work are just some
of the topics of discussion we expend more thought on than expected!
THE SHORT VERSION
Robot romance
Odd couples
Android admirers
