Andreas Deja's "The Lion King" Scar animation

Who doesn't love "The Lion King"? The peak of 2d Disney's movies in my opinion, not to mention the amount of amazingly talented well known animators that worked on it. Andreas Deja, who was supervising Animator for the character "Scar", is one of many.

Ice Age 4 - Continental Drift Trailer

I love all the Ice Age movies. In my opinion, one of the few animation sequels that get progressively better and more fun. Can't wait to see this!

Mass Effect 3

Don't know about you, but I'm extremely excited for this. Big fan of the series. Only wish it was made into a tv show along the lines and style of the re imaged "Battlestar Galactica" series.



Fwah! EPIC

ParaNorman Trailer

I love stop-motion animation, and I love monster/ghost movies for kids (yay zombies!). "ParaNorman" directed by Chris Butler & Sam Fell, ticks all those boxes. I'm all for animations having more of darker undertones and looks to them and still being fun. It makes me nostalgic for the movies from the 80's and early 90's.

Looking forward to this one!

Dedicated to Parents of Two Kids

Awesomely animated 2D short entitled "Dedicated to Parents of Two Kids". I love the comedic timing of it all. Like when the dad sits down on the see-saw and the girl hangs in the air for several frames before tumbling down. With so much going on in parts, it warrants multiple viewings.

Enjoy!

James Baxter - Spirit line tests

James Baxter is awesome. Here's one of many reasons why. Two line tests from the movie "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron". If you haven't seen this movie (or think it's a pony movie for 10 year old girls - which unfortunately was how it was marketed) go out and rent it, or better yet buy it and study it for horse reference. It's one of the best animated movies in my opinion.
