Launching into this is always going to be a fairly thankless exercise. The sheer number of animated films makes this tricky enough, let alone the variety in style, tone and technique. Classic hand-drawn animation (The Jungle Book), anime/manga (Fist of the North Star), CG animation (Toy Story), overlaid animation (rotoscoping – A Scanner Darkly), stop-motion [...]
In terms of when comics started getting taken seriously and became ‘Graphic Novels’ there seems to be two examples of what shifted general thinking over to this mind-set in the late 80s. One was Alan Moore and Dave Gibbon’s seminal and celebrated Watchmen and the other was Frank Miller’s reinvention of Batman with The Dark [...]
Disney have just announced that Jennifer Lee will be co-directing their 53′d animation feature movie, Frozen alongside previously announced director Chris Buck. The movie features the voices from Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel, “Frozen” and tell us that Frozen will be the ‘coolest comedy-adventure ever to hit the big screen’. Jennifer Lee has writing credits [...]
It was a relatively poor few days in terms of cinema attendances this past weekend as the general public made the collective decision to make the most of one last dose of sunshine before five months of jumpers, freezing mornings and flood warnings. In fact, the market was so bad this past weekend, takings were [...]
Universal Pictures have given us this new and exclusive look at the amazing way in which ParaNorman has been animated. It’s been done using stop-motion which is a technique that is best known for being done at Aardman Animation Studios on TV programmes like Wallace and Grommet or more recently in Pirates: In an Adventure [...]
A musing on the absence of animation from the Sight and Sound poll and a shameless attempt to shed light on a neglected gem from the genre. The Sight and Sound poll is out and the dust has settled. A nun has sent Orson Welles plummeting from the top spot and a new film reigns [...]
Originally aired on CBeebies in 2008, it was the first computer-animated television series from Ludorum (who also made the latest series of Dennis and Gnasher and Marvo The Wonder Chicken) and episodes are still being made to this day, airing in over one hundred and seventy five territories in the world. The latest DVD release [...]
With the Queen’s Jubilee just around the corner, the creators of Peppa Pig have made and released a special compilation DVD featuring some of the most popular episodes from the hit television series, as well as the exclusive episode featuring the Queen (that also has a book released based on this episode). Despite the lack [...]
We all know the Universal Logo as we’ve all (probably) seen dozens of Universal Pictures movies but this brand new centenary logo edition is something else! Brian Tyler was tasked with conducting the orchestra that played the brand new opening and it really is spine-tingling stuff! I’ve placed the featurette with Tyler who talks you [...]
If the title alone hasn’t made your eyes and cursor dash to the video player below this text then to quote Mrs Landingham, “Well gosh, Jed, I don’t even wanna know you.” If you need a preamble then this is a Spike Jonze short using cut out animation called Mourir Auprès de Toi (To Die [...]
HeyUGuys is live at the O2 arena in London for the Empire Big Screen movie event for the full three days and we aim to have as much covered as possible. Right now we have the Walt Disney / Pixar Animation Studios Panel and we’ll be liveblogging the event right here on this page. You [...]
To celebrate the release of TANGLED, on DVD, Blu-ray Double Play & 3D Blu-ray from 23rd May, we are giving away five copies of the Blu-ray and DVD Double Play to you, our lovely readers! Synopsis: When the Kingdom’s most wanted (and most charming) thief is forced to make a deal with the golden-haired, tower-bound [...]
Our friends from Upbeat always give us top quality videos to host on HeyUGuys but this one (in my opinion) is their best so far! They got to travel to Disney Animation Studios in Burbank California and were given amazing access to the world of Disney where they explored just how the 50th animated Disney [...]
I’m not going to throw too many disparaging comments at this film before seeing it, but I can’t help but get a Garfield-like sinking in my stomach when I see the images and trailers for the new Smurfs movie. The cartoons series of The Smurfs had its charm but CG those blue things into the [...]
As has been widely reported, Harry Potter made a massive impact at the box office in the last few weeks, and continues to do so. Success was inevitable, and the level of success predictable. Harry Potter is one of the most popular book series of all time, appealing to fans both young and old. All [...]
Did you know the Italians call The Smurfs ‘i Puffi?’ Well, it’s true and the two dual character posters, seen below, are proof. Trailersland.com, an Italian movie site, snagged some pictures of these posters and have given us English speaking folks an opportunity to view them online. Thank you so much for bringing us with these puffi [...]

Kung Fu Panda 2 sees Jack Black back to kick some more badie butt alongside a support cast whcih includes James Hong, Lucy [...]
This week I watched five Animated films of differing styles and topics that were My Neighbour Totoro, The Incredibles, Nightmare Before Christmas, The Lion King and Grave of the Fireflies. Now we are around the half way mark at week 26 I’m starting to consider the films which are not on the list and wonder [...]

Director, Lee Unkrich was joined by voice artists, John Ratzenberger, Kristen Schaal, Jeff Garlin and producer, Darla K. Anderson as they attempted to recreate a scene from the [...]
Studio Ghibli are most famous for their feature films such as My Neighbour Totoro (pictured), Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke and many more wonderful films but they also occasionally make television adverts. They recently created an advert for a company called Nisshin Seifun Group to celebrate the company’s 110th anniversary. The advert was storyboarded by Goro Miyazaki, son [...]
