How to train your dragon

It's rare for me to see a film twice at the cinema. I did it for The Incredibles (more than twice) and I just did it again.

This film is really a rare pearl. The pacing, the characters, the direction, the story is all so well balanced that it grabs you gently in until you are breathless.

Congratulations to everyone who has worked on this movie. IT IS AWESOME!

Now I want a dragon :P

Megamind from Dreamworks

 

Trailer

This could be quite an interesting film. There was a spot in the trailer where I think the facial animation was just SUPERB!

Having said that, what about Despicable Me ? Seems almost on the same storyline to me. We'll see.

For now I can't wait for How to train your dragon. The art book is awesome!

Later.

Elk Hair Caddis

Great short film by a bunch of students of the Animatin Workshop in Denmark.

It's a crazy story I admit that, but I love the mix of stop motion and CG and how they did the mouth on the various characters.

Well done!
