It is rather hard, nay impossible, to judge a film before we've even seen it. It's also very foolish, especially when we have so little knowledge about it.
Rest assured that while it is not Oddworld, it will have all of the same sensibilities that we love about Oddworld.
It is also more mainstream- they need to make a film like this in order to break into the film industry, to show that they're to be taken seriously, not just game guys who went to Hollywood to make another film of a game. It will get them the funding and the security to make the Abe film(s), and get new fans.
