We geeks love animated movies. Especially when those animated movies cover geek topics like Sci-fi, aliens, monsters and Japanese Animation. Two such films are coming next year, and they look to be rather entertaining.
The first film up to look at is Monsters vs. Aliens. It looks like it's going to be a fun, tongue-in-cheek take on the classic 50's sci-fi monster/alien movies. The basic plot is that the Earth has been invaded by an evil alien race and nothing the military throws at it seems to be able to stop them. In desperation, they unleash a pack of classic 50's style monsters on them in the hopes that the monsters will be able to stop the aliens.
The monsters in question are The Blob, the 50 Foot Woman, Insectosaurus, The Missing Link and Dr. Cockroach. And to ad to the fun of the film, the President of the United States is voiced by Stephen Colbert and the alien Commander is voiced by Dwight from The Office.
Also coming out next year is the American made version of the classic Japanese Anime show Astro Boy. I don't know much about the film, but the trailer does look fun.
