I haven't been too optimistic about Disney's 'Planes.' The spinoff of Pixar's 'Cars,' 'Planes' is the story of a cropduster, fittingly named Dusty, who dreams of competing in an aerial race...but his crippling fear of heights may keep him from achieving his dream. Today, a goodly amount of new footage…

For a while now, Disney has been working on adapting the Marvel comic 'Big Hero 6' into an animated movie. Today, the first concept art, the official logline, and preview footage have arrived. Based on the comic series by Steven T. Seagle and Duncan Rouleau, the big screen animated version will be directed by Don Hall ('Winnie the…

I didn't make this but it looks pretty damn awesome!

I'm getting a very heavy 'Cars 2' vibe from Pixar's upcoming film 'Planes.' I'm not talking about character design/logistics, that connection is evident from a mile away. It has more to do with 'Cars 2' specifically, with a thin concept stretched too far. Still, as with all Pixar, I'm hoping for the best. Today,…

Just when you thought we were done with revisits to the wonderful world of Oz, Summertime Entertainment is readying another trip for 2014. The studio has just signed a distribution deal for their 3D animated musical 'Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return.' The film is derived from both …

While director Henry Selick may have a very distinctive style, but his animated films are all wonderfully unique. His films include 'Coraline,' 'James and the Giant Peach,' and …

Disney's latest short film 'Paper Man' has earned an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Short. Though it is typically Pixar that manages to pretty much dominate animated films of any length, but Disney has stepped their game up considerably with 'Paper Man.' Now, you can watch the short online. Originally playing before …

Rating-Some Ole' Bullsh*t!!   2009 and 2010 were the worst summer movie seasons, like ever. For every good movie that was released during them (District 9, Toy Story 3, Inception, Iron Man 2) we had a ton of shitty movies that accompanied them. And G.I Joe: The Rise of Cobra was one of the bad ones, yet not as bad as some of the others were. It is just flat-out stupid.   G.I Joe: The Rise Of Cobra is about... well, it's about a team of soldiers trying to stop…

One of my favorite filmic surprises of the last few years was 2009's 'Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.' The voice cast, the stunning animation, and the superbly clever script made for a truly unique movie that I often revisit. When it was announced that a sequel was in the works, I couldn't have been more pleased. Today, we have our first glimpse at …

Just when you thought Pixar had the market cornered on adorable concepts for animated films, here comes Dreamworks with 'Turbo.' It's the story of a snail who dreams of winning the Indianapolis 500. The squishy underdog, voiced by Ryan Reynolds, is suddenly endowed with super speed that makes his dream a little more…

Has it really been forty years since the last Peanuts feature film? Good grief! Well fear not, fans, Charlie Brown and the rest of the gang are about to head back to the big screen in a major way. Fox has secured the rights to the …

Dreamworks Animation has unveiled the first poster for their upcoming film 'The Croods.' The story takes place in a prehistoric era and focuses on the Crood family led by Grug (voiced by Nicolas Cage). The poster is beautiful and really speaks to the hard work the animators have put into the film. My…

It's always a good idea to look ahead, especially if you happen to be a major studio. In the case of DreamWorks Animation, they aren't just looking ahead, they are lining up all the necessary elements and locking in release dates for a long slate of new films. The list of projects will secure their continued…

I have been desperately looking forward to seeing the new animated film 'ParaNorman' since its eerie, enigmatic first teaser that so adeptly utilized Donovan's 'Season of the Witch.'The story revolves around a young boy who can communicate with the dead and must save his town form a sinister curse. This latest clip from the film gives us a good idea of how Norman sees the world, and also lends a…

For those geeks of you who haven't been living in a cave for a while, the new Marvel animated show, Ultimate Spider-Man, has been met with much, much dislike by the community at large. This is because it was not only heralded by the cancellation of the, well, spectacular show, The Spectacular Spider-Man (which, if…

Rating-(Low)Full Price!!

The Lorax is one of the best animated films I've seen since Kung Fu Panda 2. In this movie, the main character Ted Wiggins (Zac Efron) lives in a city where technology rules. All the trees are gone. He sets out to find a tree to impress his true love (Taylor Swift)…
