In a reversal of the results of Sunday’s Academy Awards, the British Animation Awards chose TIM BURTON’S CORPSE BRIDE as best feature film over WALLACE AND GROMIT: THE CURSE OF THE WERE-RABBIT. The lyrical and darkly comic CORPSE BRIDE was directed by Tim Burton and Mike Johnson, and features music by Danny Elfman, and a gifted vocal cast including Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, and Emily Watson. Congratulations to everyone involved with this luminous film! Thanks to MyManDepp for posting the news on the Zone’s News & Views forum; you can read the BBC article HERE.

Breaking from the tradition of early July release dates for their PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN saga, Disney has chosen May 25, 2007 for the release of part 3 of the trilogy. Memorial Day weekend in the U.S. is traditionally a time of extremely heavy movie attendance. By staking claim to that date so early–an aggressive marketing move–Disney may scare away other major competitors, who might not wish to battle Captain Jack Sparrow head-on.
