ANTZ, DRACULA and an animated Shakespeare'

Published at:  Jun 25, 1998 12:00:00 AM CDT

Trumpfy chiming in here with the clearest shot of the one pic we've all seen from ANTZ, plus some info on the animation world at 20th Century Fox. On the Dracula front, I have had several confirmations on that info. As for the Shakespeare bit, tis the first I've heard... anyone else?


Trumpfy here with some animation tid bits. First off, I don't know if you've posted this picture but It
makes me very happy that Antz will be released in October. Personaly I feel a little competition is
healthy. I'll bet we see a higher quality of animation in the next few years because of this little spat
between the two "D"s. Speaking of Dreamworks, a tentative title for their fourth(?) project is Stallion.
It's that Animated Western we heard about before. Cool thing is though, It's from the horses' point of
view.


There was a recent anouncement in Variety that Fox Animation was going ahead with Dracula. I
can definately say this is false. There we talks, and a story was bought, but It was going to be PG-13.
The money men just didn't have the quarter of a brain to know that, even if it was animated with toilet
paper, people would flock to see it. Someone leaked false info the Variety. Instead there's talks of a
Shakespearean adaptation. Word around the campfire is Romeo and Juliet. Personally, I'd prefer
Macbeth. How cool those soldiers with tree camoflage advancing the castle be?! And the witches!

Well, maybe someone's listening.
