The Pirates Trailer

Aardman and Sony Pictures Animation have finally released the trailer for The Pirates: In an Adventure with Scientists, the next stop motion film from the British film giants behind Wallace and Gromit is due in 2012 and this trailer is phenomenal.

I'm sure Arthur Christmas will be great, however, Aardman's true talent is stop motion, this shines through in this trailer; it's funny, action packed, clever, satirical and the music and visual style are both fantastic. As I've heard from various sources, the scale of this movie is huge, it certainly seems like an epic film.

Likewise, the voice cast (led by Hugh Grant) seems top notch. Roll on 2012 and The Pirates.
