Did you know
- TriviaThe movie Orion watched towards the beginning of the movie, with the trash compactor and recycling, strongly resembles the ending of "The Brave Little Toaster", down to the face on the compactor fed by a conveyor belt.
- Crazy creditsThe opening DreamWorks Animation logo appears as a drawing, and has a scared Orion appear on the Moon and draw a light switch to change the dark background to bright white.

Featured review
Nice but way to jumpy
This was a nice movie and it started of great but about 20 minutes into the movie it changed with the appearance of a new character that from that point kept jumping in.
Every part where she appeared the story came to a grinding halt in my opinion and it started jumping everywhere.
The end tied it together quite nicely but it didn't make up for the jumping up until then. And the appearance of the new character spoiled the rest of the movie. If that character and setting had been introduced from the beginning I would have felt differently about it.
So all in all. It is a nice movie with a great story and great potential about facing your fears but it could have been soooo much better.
