Yet another Dreamworks movie that will crush other films when it’s released into the wild – Monsters vs. Aliens. Hitting theaters March of 2009, the story will go thusly:
When California girl Susan Murphy is unexpectedly clobbered by a meteor full of outer space gunk, she mysteriously grows to 49-feet-11-inches tall and is instantly labeled a “monster” named Ginormica. The military jumps into action, and she is captured and held in a secret government compound. The world learns that the military has been quietly rounding up other monsters over the years. This ragtag group consists of the brilliant but insect-headed Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D.; the macho half-ape, half-fish The Missing Link; the gelatinous and indestructible B.O.B.; and the 350-foot grub called Insectosaurus. Their confinement time is cut short however, when a mysterious alien robot lands on Earth and begins storming the country.
As a last resort, under the guidance of General W.R. Monger (on a desperate order from The President), the motley crew of Monsters is called into action to combat the aliens and save the world from imminent destruction.
The film has a pretty amazing lineup including Reese Witherspoon, Hugh Laurie, Will Arnett, Seth Rogen and Stephan Colbert. Not too shabby at all.
And Monsters vs. Aliens will be released in 3D in select theaters. Nerdtastic.
