Brand New Fantastic Mr. Fox Featurette
Fox Searchlight just made a brand new featurette for “The Fantastic Mr. Fox” available giving us some clues as to how director Wes Anderson and his crew used old-school stop-motion animation to bring the Roald Dahl classic to life.
Plot summary: Mr and Mrs Fox (Clooney and Streep) live an idyllic home life with their son Ash (Schwartzman) and visiting young nephew Kristopherson (Eric Anderson). But after 12 years, the bucolic existence proves too much for Mr Fox’s wild animal instincts. Soon he slips back into his old ways as a sneaky chicken thief and in doing so, endangers not only his beloved family, but the whole animal community. Trapped underground and with not enough food to go around, the animals band together to fight against the evil Farmers – Boggis, Bunce and Bean – who are determined to capture the audacious, fantastic Mr Fox at any cost.
“Fantastic Mr. Fox” is both written and directed by the Oscar nominated filmmaker Wes Anderson (The Royal Tenenbaums, Rushmore, Bottle Rocket, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, The Darjeeling Limited). The film features the voices of George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Wally Wolodarsky, Eric Anderson, Michael Gambon, Willem Dafoe, Owen Wilson, Jarvis Cocker and Helen McCrory.

Synopsis: Mr. Fox, Mrs. Fox, and all their fox babies live under a hill under a tree, along with Badger, Rabbit, Weasel, and all of their families. To make ends meet, every night, Mr. Fox steals a meal from one of the three crooked farmers–Boggis, a chicken farmer, Bunce, who has a little bit of everything but only eats duck liver, and Bean, who farms turkeys and apples and subsists solely on apple cider. With his keen sense of smell, and the farmers’ distinctive diets, Mr. Fox has no problem evading them.

Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince Review
“Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince“, the sixth entry into the series, is definitely the most leisurely of the movies to date. Clocking in at over 2 1/2 hours long, there’s no sense of urgency detected in Potterdom this time around. And why would there be? Young love is in the air. Never mind all that business with the Dark Lord and his minions, who seem to be waging an all-out assault against our heroes when they aren’t otherwise preoccupied with “snogging.”
A sampling of reviews:
Harry grows up in this one. That’s pretty much all you need to know right? Six movies into the Potter franchise, and your options for reviewing the film begin to see diminishing returns. No other successful series has gone this deep into a multi-movie story line with its main characters (and financing) intact. And there’s two more to go!
In The Half-Blood Prince Hogwarts has become as familiar as your grandparent’s beach house you get to vacation at once a year. It’s awesome and all, and you enjoy visiting, but you know its hallowed corridors like the back of your hand. Teachers, with whom you’re on a first-name basis, pass you in the halls – different landmarks and various patina of whoosie-whatsits flit around your head before you give them a second look. The magic has become second nature and commonplace to those of us who’ve already passed our OWLs…read more: [UGO]
Harry is distracted from his paper, however, by an instant flirtation with the young waitress, a saucy cutie who informs him, although he asked only with his eyes, that she gets off work at 11. She indeed waits for him on the platform, but the Chosen One must respond to his higher calling from Dumbledore (Michael Gambon), who either materializes, gets off a train, or has a pied-a-terre right there in the Underground. I for one will be disappointed if that waitress (I think her name is Elarica Gallagher) doesn’t turn up again in “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” whose two parts will conclude the series in 2010 and 2011…read more [Roger Ebert]
