Why It's Better Than Snow Dogs
- The story is well-written.
- A majority of cast members from the first film return (except for Crispin Glover).
- Seeing 2015 as the stereotypical future was interesting.
- Nice futuristic looking objects like hoverboards.
- The idea of having a book become a distraction for the space time continuum was a good idea for a conflict.
