Location: Nome Alaska. I wish, but for now I'm going to have to deal with Texas, USA



I think the storyline for wolf quest ******. It had WAAAYYYY too much indian and spirit stuff in it. It was too wierd to enjoy. I read the script and I was BAAAAADD. I could've done better (I'm sure alot of other people could have too) For those of you who like wolf quest, no offense intended. This is all my opinion. So please don't take it personally. :wink:

I sort of agree, but i don't think that it was so bad that it was unbearable to watch. I think the whole weird technical stuff is a bit over the top, but it was still Balto, and there is no bad Balto :)

If they had left out all they mystical mumbo jumbo, I think the movie would have been good and enjoyable, even with a song or two, if it had been written better. The characters needed a little more development, and I think some of the lines and characters were just plain cheesy or cliché.

Yes, it was kinda spiritive but maybe the makings of Wolf Quest wanted to show the Eskimo ways instead of the white but I can see all your guys' points it was kinda hard to follow after awhile but still it was a good sequel but you never know what the makers were thinking of when they put it together...

Yes, I think that WQ would have been better if it had been more realistic. The main reason is that Balto was a real story, so it felt strange to see for example wolves "making one with the tree"... I'm not saying that the magical things in WQ were that bad, but it didn't fit for a sequel to something based on real events.

I agree with everyone on this. Sure, the mystical powers and other stuff just takes the story a bit too far off the sane chart. I mean, I didn't really mind it (I really never understood the whole "becoming one with the tree" part either . . I mean, no one could really do that for real . . . but hey, it's a cartoon. They can do what they want.)
I do believe that an exceptable sequel for Balto should have been more realistic, but the Inuit totem stuff was actually cool. It should have been put to better use in it though.

I wasn't a big fan of wq. The whole spirit stuff was kinda odd. Since Balto was based on a true story, I would expect at least semi-true sequels. Oh well, it wasn't that bad I guess.

actually I thought the eskimo spirit stuff was pretty sweet. 'Course I also think that kinda stuff is really cool. Wolves + Native American stuff = awesome to me. I will say It was slighty wierd at times tho.

I think being part native myself that that was a good idea to give you a look at what Alaska is really about, thats what kind of people are there Natives.And I think it would not make any sence if they had not done that.But yes the computer stuff could go.And I think they were trying abit to hard on WQ but loved it all anyways..lol
