FANTASTIC MR. FOX Movie Poster
I'm really looking forward to finally being able to see Wes Andersons, Fantastic Mr. Fox. The movie looks like a true Anderson film. I have seen a lot of people complaining about the style of animation, that the stop-motion animation isn't as good as it should be. Fact of the matter is, Anderson got the exact style he was going for. This is wat he wanted it to look like, if he wanted it to be a polished CGI movie material he would have done it.
The film is based on the classic Roald Dahl book featuring the voices of George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Willem Dafoe, Jason Schwartzman, Michael Gambon, Adrien Brody, Brian Cox, Anjelica Huston, and even Wes Anderson.
After so much treatment, the greedy farmers band together to end Mr. Fox. They ambush him at the base of his hole in the hill, and while Mr. Fox survives, his tail does not. Thus begins an obsession on the part of the farmers. They first try to dig the foxes out, but they are outdug by eight sets of paws. Then, they move to starving them out. This is unfortunate, as no other creatures living under the hill (though now more of a valley; a bulldozer was involved at one point) can get out, either. Mr. Fox is not a very popular figure until he chances across the idea of digging under the farmhouses...
Make sure to watch the trailer for the movie if you haven't done so yet! There is also a great behind the scenes look of the film that will help you appreciate what has been done. The poster for the film looks great! Check it out below thatnks to our friends at firstshowing, and tell us what ya think!
