There’s something quite adorable about ARTHUR CHRISTMAS. Maybe it has to do with the fact that Aardman Animations is behind this one. That’s the production company behind WALLACE & GROMIT, just an FYI.
I love a good Christmas movie, animated or otherwise and this one has a great voice cast including: James McAvoy, Bill Nighy, Hugh Laurie, Jim Broadbent, Ashley Jensen, Matt Lucas, Imelda Staunton (F YOU UMBRIDGE) and Will Sasso.
The latest teaser trailer for the film reveals the gift wrap elves. Arthur gives us a sneak peek at their wrapping skills. What’s the challenge? Wrapping a polar bear. If this wasn’t a kids film I would expect that the polar bear would create massive destruction fueled by rage and taste for the happiness of elves.
Summary:
“Arthur Christmas reveals the incredible, never-before seen answer to every child’s question: ‘So how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?’ The answer: Santa’s exhilarating, ultra-high-tech operation hidden beneath the North Pole. But at the center of the film is a story about a family in a state of comic dysfunction and an unlikely hero, Arthur, with an urgent mission that must be completed before Christmas morning dawns.”
