The Fantastic Mr. Fox movie image (2).jpg

I had high hopes for Wes Anderson's "Fantastic Mr. Fox".  It had a strong voice cast, came from a strong author (Roald Dahl), and I'm always cheering for stop-motion animation.  But this trailer has very little to cheer for.  Maybe it's intentional, but the stop-motion animation looks sloppy (especially when compared to what "Coraline" accomplished earlier this year) and I would say that's perhaps intentional in an attempt to charm...except the trailer isn't charming.  It's got the hip-heist and the snappy dialogue and absolutely no heart.  I hope this is just a poor trailer but whereas Anderson's previous films may have been repetitive, they at least had some heart but this movie might be as lifeless as it's stop-motion models.

Check out the trailer after the jump and judge for yourself.  "Fantastic Mr. Fox" hits theatres on November 13th.
