Frankenweenie Character Images

I am a HUGE fan of Tim Burton and he is set to return to stop motion animation with his new movie Frankenweenie.

Now we are going to have to wait until October to check out this black and white 3D movie but it does promise to be one of the animation movie events of 2012.

Burton favourites Winona Ryder and Catherine O’Hara are back to lend their voices to the movie while Martin Short and Martin Landau are also on the cast list.

And we have some new character images for you to take a look at. Meet Bob, Bob’s Mum, Elsa Van Helsing, Mr & Mrs Frankenstein, Persephone, Sparky, Toshiaki and Victor.

Frankenweenie is a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life – with just a few minor adjustments.

He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, Victor’s fellow students, teachers and the entire town all learn that getting a new ‘leash on life’ can be monstrous.

Frankenweenie is released 17th October.

Wreck-It Ralph Trailer

Walt Disney Animation Studios have teamed up with Emmy®-winning director Rich Moore to bring Wreck-It Ralph to the big screen.

And while the movie may not be out until the beginning of 2013 we have the first trailer from the movie for you to take a look at:

Ralph (voice of John C. Reilly) is tired of being overshadowed by Fix-It Felix (voice of Jack McBrayer), the ‘good guy’ star of their game who always gets to save the day.

But after decades doing the same thing and seeing all the glory go to Felix, Ralph decides he’s tired of playing the role of a bad guy.

He takes matters into his own massive hands and sets off on a game-hopping journey across the arcade through every generation of video games to prove he’s got what it takes to be a hero.

On his quest, he meets the tough-as-nails Sergeant Calhoun (voice of Jane Lynch) from the first-person action game Hero’s Duty.

But it’s the feisty misfit Vanellope von Schweetz (voice of Sarah Silverman) from the candy-coated cart racing game, Sugar Rush, whose world is threatened when Ralph accidentally unleashes a deadly enemy that threatens the entire arcade.

Will Ralph realise his dream and save the day before it’s too late?

Wreck-It Ralph Trailer is released February 2013
