I had not seen anything in here about this new movie, Tim Burton animation, say what you want but his animated movies are all well made. Here's a trailer, also must see for Coheed and Cambria action! Also some bigger names doing the voice acting so seems like it could be good.

Why would you show us this now? Making us wait until September is bad and you should feel bad

**nicholai** · 2008-12-30 14:23

Made me think of this guy:

The Number 9 Man - Futurama Wiki

Kind of a strange coincidence that there will be two "number 9" people with mysterious story-lines tied to the fates of their respective worlds next year.

It's based off an animated short that a student at UCLA made for his 3D animation class.

YouTube - 9

Tim Burton saw it and decided it was his style, took it under his wing, and is making the movie. The movie character designs are very true to the animated short, and the creator, Shane Acker, is also having a major part in production as far as he would envision his story being fully told.

Did anybody notice the Thundercats trailer coupled with this? Though fake, it was really well made lol

**Maguspk** · 2008-12-31 15:43

Looks good but why is there an apple logo in the bottom right? Is Pixar involved in this? I was pretty sure WALL-E was the last Pixar movie obligated to be done by contract.

**tyven** · 2008-12-31 17:16

i think the apple icon is cuz the trailer is from here Apple - Trailers - 9 - Large

Quoted from Slashfilm.com:

9 Movie Trailer | /Film

9 is a computer animated film produced by Tim Burton (The Corpse Bride) and Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted, Nightwatch), directed by former WETA Digital artist Shane Acker, and featuring the music of Danny Elfman. Based on Acker’s Academy Award-nominated 2005 film festival short (watch it on YouTube), 9 is a post-apocalyptic nightmare in which all of humanity is threatened. The official plot synopsis follows:

“When 9 (Wood) first comes to life, he finds himself in a post-apocalyptic world. All humans are gone, and it is only by chance that he discovers a small community of others like him taking refuge from fearsome machines that roam the earth intent on their extinction. Despite being the neophyte of the group, 9 convinces the others that hiding will do them no good. They must take the offensive if they are to survive, and they must discover why the machines want to destroy them in the first place. As they’ll soon come to learn, the very future of civilization may depend on them.”

The group includes 1 (Christopher Plummer), a domineering war veteran; 2 (Martin Landau), an aged inventor; 5 (John C. Reilly), a stalwart mechanic; 6 (Crispin Glover), a visionary and artist; and 7 (Jennifer Connelly), a brave warrior. I like Acker’s unique art style which could be described as a darker/post apocalyptic version of what Tim Burton use to do, with a touch of LittleBigPlanet. Leave your thoughts in the comments below.

HQ versions of the trailer.

Youtube of the trailer.

Apparently came from this short made by Shane Acker(As seen in the article), pretty interesting watch.

Tim Burton is producing, looks like it will be excellent. (Even though it's months away...)

Cannot wait jaspgoiasjperosij;slkfnsa;rlksjer.

<- Tim Burton fanboy >_>

Edit: Also, the trailer plays Coheed and Cambria. I can die happy if they're a predominant part of the movie soundtrack.

Yeah same here, I saw the trailer when I was going to see Coraline, and the music+the trailer itself gave me that hair standing on end feeling, hah.

**Fistandantilus** · 2009-03-23 21:28

I saw the preview for this at coraline as well and it looks fucking epic, I cannot wait!

**Qalbert** · 2009-03-23 21:32
