Like it or lump it, (I love it), the film has been successful overall, something which is somewhat surprising given a) The reviews and b) The pretty poor advertising (at least here in the UK, there was almost nothing promoting the film's release a week prior, save the odd TV spot and *very occasional* poster in the window. You literally had to walk into a book shop to find out anything about the movie's existence).
"These are Gundabad Wargs! They will outrun you!" "THESE are Rhosgobel Rabbits! I'd like to see them try...."
