Flushed Away

[Galactus]

With the creators of both Shrek and Wallace & Gromit involved maybe this could be one of the better animated movies this year.

 

[Poeman]

i think happy feet will be the best animated or over the hedge

Dunno..Nick Park is an Oscar machine, he just churns them out

It's an Aardman production, it's going to be good. Not sure why they chose to go with CGI though, I would have prefered they stuck with stop-motion.

 

[Hunter Rider]

NEW! Trailer Hi-Res

(20.3Mb)

 

[The Guard]

That shrieking snail is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Ever.

It's a MUCH longer process with claymation.

 

[black_dust]

Some of the stuff they are doing is way to ambitious for stopmotion, ive seen some of the behind the sences stuff and it looks cool, its got some stopmotion in it, but not all that much.

 

[The Amazing Lee]

Looks cool though

 

[Hunter Rider]

Looks cool though

Yeah,i think OTH looks better but this looks better than Cars IMO,Jackman's voice is perfect

 

[primemover]

Not digging this one so far, but the pedigree is solid, so I'll have to see.

 

[The Amazing Lee]

I think because the basis is british, it's easier to get into it

But yeah the Slug was hilarious up:

Crood Awakening will be a total stopmotion one. Due in 2008

Set in the prehistoric era, a man's position as Leader of the Hunt is threatened by the arrival of a prehistoric genius who comes up with revolutionary new inventions ... like fire.

I'm aware. The outcome is worth it.

Yeah. That became apparent in the recently released trailer where the scenes towards the end of it displayed quite a bit of complexity. I can understand why they wouldn't gamble and bother with the pain-staking process of stop-mo for a feature film without their most popular duo, but I still would have preferred it. Chicken Run did fine. Ambition should always be at the helm of any project.
