Wes Anderson's amazing new film Fantastic Mr Fox is on the horizon and I'm super excited after watching the trailer here.
It looks epic and as always with Wes Anderson's films the art direction and attention to detail looks stunning. He does like his varying shades of yellow doesn't he? Also, I'm sure I've seen Wes Anderson himself wearing a suit exactly the same as Mr Fox...tweed and such. Brilliant.
I wonder what Mr Dahl would think of it...I'm sure he'd be well happy.
Another animated film out soon is the new Pixar movie Up.
I saw it when I was in California a few months back and it's rather special, mainly thanks to it being one of the first new 3D flicks. As you'd expect from a Pixar film, the quality of animation is brilliant, but it's the 3D-ness that will blow your mind. Worth going to see it for the experience alone.
The storyline - well, that's where it lacks a bit...the premise is simple, but it soon spirals into a contrived and random tale, a bit of a poor man's Howl's Moving Castle if you ask me. But it is definitely worth a watch, even just for the excellent short film that precedes the main feature. Out in October over here I think.
