Abounding Anthropomorphisms!

I've just about had it. Talking rats. Talking penguins. Talking dogs. Someone, please make it stop! Disney, what have you done to the world?! The most recent addition to the line of personified animals is Ratatouille, a movie about a talking, cooking rat in Paris. But before I go off about unreal rodents, how about those penguins? Let's see, March of the Penguins in '05, Happy Feet early this year, the spoof Farce of the Penguins also this year, and now Surf's Up, which my little brother has already seen two or three times. Then, the zoo films. Madagascar in '05, then The Wild in '06, and Over The Hedge last year. Now, Underdog (to my chagrin) is coming out later this year. Synopsis: talking, flying dog. Rewind one or two years and you will find a movie titled Good Boy featuring a... talking, flying dog. You all know of the other classic talking animal movies that have scratched, smiled, and slobbered their way onto the big screen. I'm not saying it's a bad thing to have children movies, I'm just saying that we need a break. Once someone popularizes a theme(zoo escape, penguins), everyone hops on the band wagon and beats that poor little idea into the ground until we're all sick.
