The Fantastic Mr. Fox Trailer Could Probably Be a Little More Animated

  • 7/30/09 at 4:30 PM

The first trailer for Wes Anderson's The Fantastic Mr. Fox has arrived, and it looks ... okay! The art direction is clearly as fussed-over as in any Wes Anderson movie, the stop-motion animation is completely charming, and all puppets seem way less nightmare-inducing than they did in previously released stills. But what's up with the voice acting? George Clooney and Jason Schwartzman's parts were apparently recorded at history's least enthusiastic table reading, and Bill Murray sounds like he had a plane to catch. Still, it looks cute, we guess.
