We have another animated mouse movie that will be upon us just in time for the upcoming christmas season! We have discovered this trailer thanks to the WEBMASTER over at Film Junk. Check out The Tale of Despereaux!
A mouse that knows not fear and lives life like nothing will harm him is an interesting idea for a children’s film. I am not familiar with the book that this movie is based on, but if any of you have had the privilege of reading it - I would appreciate your input very much.
The Tale of Despereaux will be in theaters December 19th just in time for magic family holiday time.

My daughter read this book (twice) a few years ago and it’s still one of her favorite books. I showed her the trailer yesterday and her complaints are she doesn’t like the voice they chose for Despereaux and she also commented that they’ve added/changed some things. She knows that’s common, but all the same she’s excited to see this come December.

Id have to say this is one of the best looking cg flicks to date, the people making it must really be trying to break away from the norm. Look at the human characters and how they move, they dont seem to look like pixar humans which is what everyone trys to copy. Even tho its based on a book, it feels original also i thought th voices acting fit really well, didnt seem like all the attention was on who is staring in it. Basically i thought nothing looked conventional

It somewhat looks to me as Bee Movie meets Ratatouille

Finished the book today. Can’t wait to read it with my 5th grade class so they can compare it to the movie. The trailer looks like a movie kids will love!
