It is online the trailer of Igor.

It looks pretty promising to me, although I think that this article on it has a pretty unfair question:

could this be the next Nightmare Before Christmas?

I think that the movie could be very good, but the standards set by Tim Burton's movie are pretty hard to achieve. Not that it is impossible, but the trailer didn't make me feel like that. The influence is pretty clear, but I have to see the movie first.

This is being produced by Paris based Sparx studios, and it is one of the movies I'm looking forward to. =)

Aren't those guys at Aardman really awesome?

It amazes me how they make everything so strong, from the ideas to the final animation. =)

The last one I knew about is their series of shorts with some environmental messages for Animal Planet. They are so cool that we can even download them in Quicktime format!

Next June 21st there will be 20 years since the release of "Who Framed Roger Rabbit".

In an earlier post you could watch some very cool videos on the making of the film. Now I saw this, pointed out by André Forni on his blog:

And now, the original Jessica Rabbit in one of her most memorable scenes:

It is online the new trailer of DreamWorks' Kung Fu Panda.

I'm really looking forward to watch this movie. In addition to everything we can see for ourselves in the trailer, it also has a strong recommendation: Jerry Beck, from Cartoon Brew, watched the movie in a pre-release session and recommended it publicly.

"I believe is one of the best CG animated films I’ve ever seen.

Yup. Right up there with The Incredibles. Dreamworks has done it. No joke."

Would you believe in him? Would you go for his taste? Well... I did when he recommended Surfs Up while everyone was talking only about Ratatouille. I can say I didn't get disappointed at all. =)

Composition is a subject that I always like to read about.

The great animator Carlos Baena wrote brief post on this. It is brief, but is a good reading. =)
