A redeemed Jesper delivers the presents with Klaus, and the marriage of the Krum and Ellingboe children forces the family elders to grudgingly end their feud. On the other hand, everyone learned immensely and I’m confident that we’ll be better prepared next time around.Well, I can only hope that more companies and producers will be willing to consider traditional animation as a valid vehicle for storytelling, and that more creators will be willing to take chances and explore uncharted paths.
