9

My word, these clips are spectacular! :open_mouth: Thanks, lord_zedd. A word of caution: entire action sequences and a few character deaths are in both clips, so you might want to avoid if you donā€™t want to get spoilerised.

But other than that, the action sequences are very inventive! There seems to be a lot of jumping, slicing, and plenty, plenty of falling, but the pacing is relentless and will hold you on the edge of your seat! And the characterisations, how each puppet has their own personality and body features is justā€¦ amazing. Each of them are unique (even the vilains)! :smiley:

Iā€™m so thrilled; this almost looks like a Japanese or European animated film (not to say anything bad about American animation, but most of it is pretty inane and full of pop-culture references, and rarely is it as unique as this is!). Come on, Australia, release it already! :angry:

Thereā€™s another trailer; it reminds me of Terminator Salvation for some reason.

Dude, I know! Thatā€™s exactly what I thought too! I saw Terminator Salvation (raw, by the way) and I see the setting is very similar.

It most certainly does! Maybe itā€™s the TV noise and rapid jump-cuts in the beginningā€¦ :slight_smile:

Thanks for the TV spot, lord_zedd. Geez, letā€™s get it out already, cinema distributors! :angry:

Looks like a freakinā€™ awesome movie. Period.

Semi-new poster:

I saw one of my classmateā€™s issue of 3D World and it had 9 on the cover! Itā€™s so awesome (9 was holding an ink brush), but for some reason, the latest issueā€™s cover on the official site has a different pic. Maybe a subscriberā€™s-special much like they did with Kevin for the Up issueā€¦ :frowning:

Thatā€™s actually old, I saw it online shortly after the teaser trailer came out.

Iā€™m very pleased that itā€™s rated PG-13. It means the American film industry is finally starting to break the stereotypes that animation is just for kids/family friendly. Bring on the dark and gritty, I say!

New and old is relative, my ā€˜Rick Astley from the 80sā€™-sig wearing friend. :wink: Besides, nobody has posted this, so Iā€™m sharing it with those who havenā€™t seen this poster yet. Geez, if it makes you happier, Iā€™ve changed the original sentence to ā€˜semi-newā€™ nowā€¦

Is it now? Thatā€™s freakinā€™ awesome; about time they realized ā€˜cartoonsā€™ werenā€™t just for ā€˜kidsā€™. :smiley:

I just saw the trailer a while ago and I thought ā€œOk, sort of want to see itā€, but then I saw a clip that they showed at Comic-Con and, oh, I want to see it now. :smiley:

New clip, guys!

9 MEETS 2

Pure awesomeness, the animation is GREAT, especially 9ā€™s eyes. :open_mouth: :smiley:

I just love the atmosphere and soundtrack, itā€™s so melancholic andā€¦ morose! But bewitchingly beautiful at the same time! :slight_smile:
And I like 2ā€™s hat!
Thanks, lord_zedd!

You are welcome, but Iā€™m afraid that was the last clip until the movie comes out.

However, if anyone wants to see how the scientist created the dolls, go to his page on Facebook:

ONE WORD: Friend

You know, for 9ā€™s first speak, ā€œfriendā€ is a beautiful word to say.

Not quite; thereā€™s an exclusive clip up at Apple.com:

apple.com/trailers/focus_features/9

I donā€™t know if anyone has seen this clip before, but itā€™s said to be a Yahoo! exclusive. So, anyway, here you go: movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809704882/video/15388445

Itā€™s called ā€œThe Sourceā€ (with intro from Elijah Wood).

EDIT: (and how appropriate is it that I posted this at 9:00pm EST?)

Those clips are awesome! I CANā€™T WAIT TO SEE THE MOVIE! :open_mouth: :smiley:

Last night on Adult Swim, they made a little short ad for 9. They even jokingly made their own 9 ā€œanimationā€

One more day! Iā€™m gonna see this tomorrow after school. The only thing that sucks is that school ends at 3:00 and one showing of 9 is at 3:30, and I could make it, but Iā€™d be late, and I donā€™t wanna miss one second of this movie. So, the next showing after that is at 5:30, so I have to wait two hours. :cry:
