    Let me run this one by you:

    Synopsis: A toaster, a blanket, a lamp, a radio, and a vacuum cleaner journey to the city to find their master after being abandoned in their cabin in the woods.

    Sounds silly, right? It's the synopsis of The Brave Little Toaster which was a very well made animated film and one could easily argue was the inspiration for Toy Story.

    I guess my point is there are some really badly made synopsis of some good movies (I read one for the Fifth Element that was "A New York cabbie goes off to save the world", and no, I'm not paraphrasing) So it's not something I would have as a factor. Imagine what some of the synopsis for Shrek would have been.

      There's a reason the Better Than it Sounds page exists on TVTropes.

      That said, Sausage Party sounds really dumb from the synopsis, and the cast list sounds like a DreamWorks-level attempt to cash in on big names because the story can't carry itself. Plus the tittle sounds like something dirty.

        I was thinking 'At least they didn't call it Sausagefest'

          Or "Hide The Sausage."

                Tell me about it. It's not often I end up in the gutter here (despite other members' best efforts), but this time....

                    An Oscar for a film about a sausage? Was the sausage's name Mayer, by any chance?

                      “There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
                      One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
                      The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers
