I much prefer the original title to this one. "Escape 2 Africa" doesn't make any sense because Madagascar IS part of Africa! Sheesh. Hopefully this is just a false rumor.

Yeah. You'd think the guys making the film would've researched their geography. ;)

Hey, I'm sure they did as much research on this as the Blue Sky guys did on Ice Age 3. ;)

Or the guys did with the male cows on Barnyard! ;)

Personally, I liked the wordplay on The Crate Escape and wouldn't be surprised if it retains that title in some other markets. It sounded a bit "Aardman-esque", which was cool.

Still more news here:

I'm glad that Maurice is returning. Although them doing the "Move it, Move it" thing again sounds like it'll be more of the same.

King Jullian's gonna own the film, I think. His jokes are by far the funniest in that thing.

Not really Mad 2 but DW related: :wink:


The prodigal children return!!!

Apparently, all those 2d films we THOUGHT we saw were real after all! :)

(It makes me a bit wary however--does this mean that DW is in a really desperate state now, actually acknowledging their 2d efforts? :?)

At least you can watch all the trailers now as well. (including 2d)

You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

Wow, the "I like to move it " bit in the video was pretty lame. Other than that though, it was kind of fun.

Yeah, it does look kinda fun. I just wish that the movie weren't opening the same day as James Bond.

Hey, different target audiences. I'm sure they'll both do well.

Yes, but I want to see both of them. Now I'll have to decide which one I want to see on opening day. ;)
