'The Tale of Despereaux' Gets Another Great Trailer

The first time I saw a trailer for The Tale of Despereaux I thought it was extremely well-animated and a nice change of pace from the blockbuster cartoons we normally see.

It's based on the children's book by Kate DiCamillo and features the voices of a huge cast; I'm familiar with the work of the first seventeen names in the credits. The major players are Matthew Broderick, Emma Watson, Christopher Lloyd, Dustin Hoffman, Sigourney Weaver, William H. Macy, and Kevin Kline. Not bad.

Broderick plays Despereaux Tilling, a mouse born at a bad time to be a rodent. He befriends a princess (Watson), which, as it happens, is a bad thing for a mouse to do.

The second trailer for Despereaux has been released, and it's definitely a crowd pleaser. Check it out and pay less attention to the rhymed verse exposition and more to the immaculate computer animation.


Trailer Addict - Yes we can!

The Tale of Despereaux arrives in theaters December 19th.
