I have to disagree, Czarine. Just because you accept some fantastic element of a story's premise doesn't mean you can't apply logic to any aspect of it. We can suspend our disbelief easily for talking animals and living toys, but these characters still have to operate within certain boundaries of "realism" for us to continue believing. Imagine if in the climax of Toy Story, Woody discovered he could spin his pull string over his head so fast that it would act like a helicopter and he and Buzz could fly back home that way. Sure, we've already accepted that toys are alive and have human intelligence, but it works because they're still pretty believably limited. Woody flying would still be ridiculous.
That said, I think Bolt and company's incredible navigation skills are actually pretty believable. Consider all the true stories of lost pets traveling for miles and finding their way home.

That's actually what I meant. For me it isn't that hard to believe, so that's why I compared it with Toy Story.
If it actually was a ridiculous plot twist, I wouldn't make the comparison. I actually hate it when people don't think of good ways to solve problems in a story and just turn ez-mode on the plot and think of something ridiculous that saves the day (for example: Bolt suddenly noticing he has ultra GPS powers or something...). Should have made that a bit more clear in my last post though... ^^

They also can't talk, can they? Sorry but I think saying what you just said is like saying Toy Story is stupid because toys don't actually live. It's fiction man, everything's possible. i agree! go you! bolt is adorable, i would really love a dog like bolt! bolt is one of the best pixars, its right up there with monsters inc.
