MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY, CHARLIZE THERON AND RALPH FIENNES LEND VOICES
Poster and a trailer have also been revealed for new animated adventure coming from Laika Studios KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS about kindhearted Kubo (Art Parkinson) who tells stories to the people of his seaside town. But his quiet existence is shattered when he accidentally summons a spirit from his past which storms down from the heavens to enforce an age-old vendetta.
Now on the run with Monkey (Charlize Theron) and Beetle (Matthew McConaughey), he sets out on a quest to save his family and solve the mystery of his fallen father, the greatest samurai warrior the world has ever known. With the help of his magical musical instrument Kubo must battle gods and monsters, including the vengeful Moon King (Ralph Fiennes) and the evil twin Sisters (Rooney Mara) to unlock the secret of his legacy, reunite his family and fulfil his heroic destiny.
That reminds me - I still have to read the P&P&Z book!
ReplyDeletestill time till February :) And still time to learn sword wielding before the Sorry Stricken strike!
DeleteBoth of these sound interesting. I am probably the most curious about Kubo- but I am in an animated movie type of mood right now. :)
ReplyDelete~Jess
that one should be fun, Laika always does something unusual!
DeleteLily James is much better looking blonde
ReplyDeleteand I think the real danger is not the zombies, but the Lannisters
yes, too many Lannisters in this one!
DeleteSome good stuff to look forward to!
ReplyDeleteglad you think so
DeleteI really liked the P and P version that K Knightley starred in. Not sure how I feel about zombies thrown in. I didn't care at all for A Lincoln vampire hunter.
ReplyDeleteHave a good one, Dez.
Haven't seen the vampire hunter... nor do I have a wish to :)
DeleteI'm over the whole adding zombies into everything nowadays, but Allison just mentioned that she can't wait to see this when we saw the preview for it at the movies last week. Guess I have to add PPZ to our stinkin' watch list now. pft.
ReplyDeletewell, better to watch the zombie version than to read Austen's borefest version methinks
DeleteTrue. At least the movie looks a lot more interesting than her novels!
Deleteagreed
DeleteI wish I couldsummon a spirit from my past.
ReplyDeletewhich one? Your own?
DeleteHow did you even know?
DeleteI see many things....
