Event: Alpha and Omega ahead of the premiere

Now in North America, more and more cartoons for the children's market are Schedule the premiere on Saturday or Sunday morning - that's a no-brainer from a marketing standpoint. But this is hard for us office workers who usually sleep from 9 to 5 and make up on weekends. Struggling to get out of bed today to join us - purely because Dennis Hopper, who left us a few months ago, has a cameo in the film.
Dennis Hopper plays the leader of the eastern wolf pack, and his animation is quite similar to him. It's a pity that it's just a cameo, there are not many scenes, and there are even fewer dialogues. But the character itself is more or less reminiscent of some of the villains before him.
Since the film's story takes place in Jasper National Park, Canada, a 15-second park promotional video was specially released before the main film, but the VCD (up to DVD) quality video and the grass studio quality sound are really good. It doesn't make people want to play at all.
There's not much to say about the feature film. For most children under the age of 10 who don't have much appreciation, 3D movies of such a subject will always make them jump. For audiences of other ages, it's not a bad movie, but at best it's another forgettable movie.
