Saturday Night at the Movies

Posted by Scaramouch on May 20, 2006.

After a prolonged absence, a brief return for Saturday Night at the Movies. i took my kids to see Over the Hedge today, and every single coming attraction was for an upcoming CGI animation, some of which I'd never heard of before, and all of which looked interesting. With Ice Age 2 and Hoodwinked already behind us, I think 2006 is going to be the banner year for animation, so let's take a look at some trailers:

The one you must all have heard about, Pixar's Cars, which didn't really get me excited until the most recent trailer.

Discover the hidden world at the bottom of your toilet (!) with Flushed Away.

An all star cast and a trailer that looks spookily real, happy penguins means Happy Feet.

The juries still out on Ant Bully - seems to be retreading familar Antz territory.

Whereas Open Season looks like it might be injecting a surrealist “edge” to their anthropomorphic comedy.

Playing on every paranoid fear we humans have, Barnyard shows the truth behind the animal conspiracy.

Of them all, this is one I'm really looking forward too - from Spielberg & Zemeckis comes Monster House.
