Watch: Surprisingly Decent Trailer for Free Birds

A new poster for the film, too.

I've been vocal in my lack of interest in Free Birds, the time-travelling turkey flick from new-kid-on-the-block animation studio, Reel FX. That said, this new trailer has at least earned my curiosity. The film does still look extremely silly, but that's not necessarily solely a bad thing. The concept is quirky and fun; Amy Poehler, who voices a female turkey in the film, is always great; the film looks as if it's got similarities, thematically and visually, to Chicken Run and Monsters vs. Aliens, two very fine films; and the Hazmat suit guys are a hoot.

Check out the new trailer, via Fandango, below. I'll embed from YouTube when it's on there.

Brave: Family Portrait

Following on from last week where we treated to the first (of what we assumed are many) Brave Stories, showcasing Merida, the main character of Pixar's next feature film, Brave, Fandango today debuted the second  Brave Stories style featurette, this one entitled: Brave: Family Portrait.

The focus of this featurette is on Merida's hyperactive little brothers; the triplets: Hamish, Hubert and Harris. The trio don't speak in the entire film and, from the accounts of those who've seen an early version of the first half hour, are riotously funny.

The clip (above) also gifts us with a lot of exciting new footage from the film as well as shedding some light on the darker and more ominous second act of the film.
