Arthur Christmas Poster and info
(His sweater is missing some reindeer`s running around his upper-chest)
Info:
James McAvoy, Hugh Laurie, Jim Broadbent, Bill Nighy, Imelda Staunton, and Ashley Jensen, have joined the voice cast of the 3D, CG-animated family comedy, Arthur Christmas. The highly anticipated film, produced by Aardman Animations for Sony Pictures Animation, is slated for release November 23, 2011.
The plot
Set on Christmas night, the story of Arthur Christmas at last reveals the incredible, never-before seen answer to every child’s question: ‘So how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?’ The answer: Santa’s exhilarating, ultra-high-tech operation hidden beneath the North Pole. But at the heart of the film is a story with the ingredients of a Christmas classic – a family in a state of comic dysfunction and an unlikely hero, Arthur, with an urgent mission that must be completed before Christmas morning dawns.
Good grief.. Highly anticipated? Might be good. I still think fondly of "Flushed down" and beeing a huge Aardman fan, they might do good on the story. The poster is truly a teaser and dosent really say anything about the feel, other then the unlikely goofy hero with a heart of gold steps up.. Who knows. Might be fun
PS: Havent Ive seen that face before? Oh, thats right...

L.A. Noire Explores The Subtleties of Crime With Nuanced, Digital Actors
I've always been bothered by how out of sync, how unreal, digital actors look in video games. That's exacerbated in the sorts of games they expect you to read anything into the folks you run into in a game.
Imagine trying to tell if someone is lying to you when they're wearing an ill-fitting rubber mask. That's essentially the issue with most dialog-heavy video games, until now. If Rockstar is to be believed, this is a game created to "render every subtlety and nuance of an actor's facial expressions and emotions."
Why does that matter? Because in L.A. Noire you play a detective in the Los Angeles of the 1940s. Rockstar says the game has you trying to solve crimes through a "blend of classic action, clue-finding and interrogation, allowing players to analyze every subtle nuance of an actor's performance in order to get to the truth."
If they can do it, if these aren't just canned animations, then L.A. Noire could become an important piece of interactive fiction. More importantly, it could be one of the first games that allows you to use some of the real-world skills investigators tap into to solve crime.
It's worth pointing out that the game will include Mad Men's Aaron Stanton as lead officer, Cole Phelps, Fringe's John Noble, and a cast of "esteemed actors," working alongside director Michael Uppendahl (Mad Men), according to Rockstar.
L.A. Noire is due out this coming spring.

Now, this is Oscar worthy!
Nooo, Parker Posey! Great, and interesting careerer`s is the other way!
*sigh*
I love Parker Posey, but this is really a step back.. Im basing this entirely on the lame ass "american pie" poster with the incredibley sucky tagline.. Even if this is a joke, its a bad taste one..
Update: I found a trailer.. This is not good... *tripple-sight*

Hate/Love from CRUSH
Hate/Love from CRUSH on Vimeo.
Created by the Leo Burnett Agency in Toronto, "This is the opening created for the 2010 Advertising and Design Club of Canada (ADCC) Awards. The film taps into an insight we think every creative feels - love for the business when things are going well, and hate, when things aren't."
This video seems to sum up the duality of corporate world and the two sided emotions many feel working within the environment. If you cannot relate to the video, consider yourself one of the lucky few.

Wizzdesign presents The Thunderclaps - Tudor Petru - Incredible music video
France continues to kill it in the music video world as seen in this latest piece of greatness, an un-offical video for The Thunderclaps called Tudor Petru. In collaboration with WIZZ, this animation collective are still students at the powerhouse that is Gobelins.
Having worked with WIZZ on Jesus 2000 last year, they came in with their footage and camped out for two months to create one of the more captivating and energetic pieces of live-action and 2D mixed-media we have ever seen. It also gave me tons of AKIRA associations. Incredible timing and weight on the animation throughout. I wished more movies and games understood this consept
