You have been warned, its short


Synopsis

Set at the dawn of time, when dinosaurs and woolly mammoths roamed the earth, ‘Early Man’ tells the story of how one plucky caveman unites his tribe against a mighty enemy and saves the day!

The plucky caveman goes by the name of Dug and his sidekick by the name Hognob. Eddie Redmayne is the voice of Dug.


Lock if old

Love Aardmans movies. The Wallace and Gromit shorts are still my favourites.

This movie reminds me of the old Gogs shorts

So there is gonna be something in between

Was a little disappointed at the 2018 release date, but if it's January that's only a year and three months away, which is fine.

Nick Park being allowed to make a new feature is wonderfully exciting.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

Yep, I'll be there. Love Aardman's work, and I don't think they've had a flub yet. The Pirates... is probably my favourite.

where's the money coming from for this anyway

I still resent Dreamworks for essentially leaving them high and dry

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Aardmans track record is great so I'll see this

StudioCanal is their new partner, and that's probably good for everyone since they have a real European focus. They also greenlit a second Shaun the Sheep movie.

Heck yeah. To be honest, Flushed Away is easily their weakest film (and a massive misuse of their strengths) so I should be glad they got a more accommodating, local partner.

Yup, I agree with all of that. I think StudioCanal is going to shape up to be their best partner. They'll interfere the least, and they're already focused on Aardman's best markets.

Now someone needs to force DWA to release US Blu-rays of Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit.

Spoilers, bro.

 

[Shaanyboi]

oh shit

Always in for Aardman. I don't think they're spectacular, but I love that they keep doing what they do.

Creationist friendly plot.

Meh, 2018? Why even bother starting to advertise this yet? Regardless, it's an Aardman production so I will undoubtedly check it out.

It's just a fun tease for fans. It was probably part of an animation test that could double for some promo.

January 2018 is about as far away as July 2015. It's a little early for a teaser, but not outrageously so.
