"MW3" highest grossing animated project of the year?

   No its not Tintin or Happy Feet Two, heck its not even a movie. They say that the Call of Duty: MW3 is the highest grossing animated thing of 2011.
   Could it be? Yeah it is. We all knew this. So, its not really a surprise to me so. Witten its 24 hour release it sold over 6.5 million units in the US and UK earning over $400 million and working its way up to $1 billion. This even beat the new score for the last Harry Potter.
   This is what CEO of Activision Bobby Kotick said- “We believe the launch of ‘Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3′ is the biggest entertainment launch of all time in any medium, and we achieved this record with sales from only two territories,”
   So yeah its a big deal.

"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3" review: "Buy it"

     Once the new Call of Duty game came out, all most all the kids at my school bought it first day it came out (all nerds)... except for like three of my friends have them so...
     With this being the most well bought and most popular animated type thing of the year, this game deserves more than just being played. There are also talks for a TV show about the game. Perfect animation and allot of breathtaking action for all the gamers. And like I said everything is better with Jonah Hill. I haven't played but man, do I want to.
    So buy it, you wont put the gaming controller down for a second.
   

Illumination Entertainment to make a "Woody Woodpecker" movie

   After making Despicable Me and Hop and in the works with The Lorax, Illumination Entertainment is being bigger and bigger. Now making mine and my brother's favorite cartoon character come to life like never before. The problem is that its gonna be in CG, I mean didn't they learn anything about Hop. Why can't people just make classic cartoons like there supposed to be like Winnie the Pooh.
    Blades of Glory writers John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky will work on it saying there gonna- “modernize the character for contemporary audiences” Also were they executive producers for King of the Hill and now after making there huge and long waited return to MTV, Beavus and Butt-head.
    So they ruined Alvin and the Chipmunks, Yogi Bear, The Smurfs, now they better not ruin Woody Woodpecker and Sony's up coming animated Popeye.

"Scrat's Contential Drift: Part 2" short



If you saw Rio you would of seen a little short of another amusing short starring the hilarious Scrat. Hears the second part to this. I think this is gonna appear in front of the new Alvin and the Chipmunks movie. And this is basically just a trailer for the new Ice Age film. This is cool and hilarious. Hope you like it.

"Happy Feet Two" review: "Wait till rent"

     The sequel for the award winning film Happy Feet came out today, and it is probably not gonna be your favorite film like the first one. But hey.
    It got 42% rotten (okay) on the Tomatoemeter. Its got pretty good animation, with an amazing cast. The film will lose you at the beginning of the 40 minutes. Although your kids will find it cool, and you might find this a bit cute, but still not worth wasting your money. And I would probably watch this just because the very hot Sofia Vergara is in it. 
   So just wait till rent, because this movie isn't worth the wait.

New "Pirates!" trailer



This movie is looking better and better. I cant wait. Oh, and doesn't Salma Hyek's character act allot like her character in Puss in Boots?

"How to Train your Dragon: Gift of the Night Fury" clip



Out right now is the combo pack of How to Train your Dragon holiday themed DVDs. It looks cool but still not good for wasting money.
We get to see Hiccup and his leg some more. I kinda feel bad for the guy.
