French CG film coming in the fall that seems to be a riff on the old Beauty and the Beast story, with a guitar playing giant bug in a zoot suit. Looking pretty cool and it’s getting an English dub as well. Been really enjoying European animation recently

I want to see this! I like the character design, and the whole Paris setting. And I too have been impressed by recent animated movies coming from Europe.
There’s a huge obsession ofthis movie over at my forum. I checked it out and now Im hooked.
I cant wait for this to come out! When the US gets it, it better be on the big screen!
I hope so! I was disapointed that Secret of Kells (already nominated for an Oscar by the time it was released in the States) was only on a few selected screens. I didn’t feel like driving all the way to San Francisco to see it. 
Looks good! I’d definitly want to be seeing this in english myself.
I didn’t understand a word in the trailer, but I am interested! 
There is a subbed trailer on youtube. That helped understand what was being said.
Do you have a link?
Thank you! Knowing what they’re saying makes me even more interested.
I can’t wait for this! Anyone know if there are plans to localize it? It captured my interest from the first time I saw concept art a while ago on Tumblr, shared by Aerostarmonk. I too have been impressed with European animated movies lately, it looks great!
I have heard of a US release soon after the french.
They do have some english voices set up and I’ve heard rumours that Sean Lenon will voice the monster.
I don’t know where the sudden Internet-wide obsession with this came from, but it looks really good. I love the lighting.
It appears that the English version of A Monster In Paris will be released in Ireland and the UK in January 2012:

Thanks for the links! I wasn’t crazy about the English trailer, the French one was way better in my opinion.
The english trailer makes it look like a joke! I was’nt to impressed with it.
The main song, La Seine, is now in full english. Sean does pretty good singing in place of -M-
A Monster in Paris will be getting a US home video release! I love Shout Factory!
Thank you for the update Outsider! I hope that I get a chance to rent this!
Wow, this looks so surreal and delightful all at once! And it’s set in Paris, which we all know is the city of war- I mean, love. Gotta look this up. 
Oh, good! I still haven’t gotten to watch this.
