The character designs look a bit like post-appocalyptic Sackboys, but the movie looks awesome regardless. Between this and Coraline, Focus Animation might be Pixar's first true quality rival in America.

Looks...cool...I guess. The trailer was trying too hard, but overall it looks cool.

Wow! It looks cool, but this film popped up from nowhere.
I'll be there. Comes out on my birthday and everything.
For those unaware of the original 2005 Academy Award Winning short - you should check that out too; it's pretty fun. How can I pass up an animated film produced by Tim Burton AND Timur Bekmambetov? It's even got music by Danny Elfman.

Watch the trailer from Apple's website (requires Quicktime)
Watch the trailer on YouTube (requires Flash)
This is "9," a new animated movie produced by Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov (the director of "Wanted") and directed by Shane Acker. In the movie, a being known as 9, who kinda looks like a Sackboy from LittleBigPlanet, awakens to a world where humanity is extinct and those like him are being hunted down by machines. The trailer looks awesome IMO and it features an all-star cast including Elijah Wood in the title role. "9" the movie comes out on, what else, 9-9-09.
Thoughts?

Sweet. This looks off the beaten path for animated movies. It's got my interest.

hmm... looks exciting. Nevertheless the story, setting and characters seems as if it was ripped from some video game.

The trailer and animation are very technically well-done, though the premise sounds so wrist-slittingly depressing, which is why I will have to pass.

I saw the trailer this afternoon, and it was brilliant.
This, along with Coraline, will make me watch animated movies again.
Focus Features, I salute you.

Some people don't seem to quite get what "produced by" really means. The story and characters have nothing to do with Burton. It began as a short film, he saw it, he liked it, he made a feature-length version possible. Beyond that it's not "by" Tim Burton at all.
It looks really imaginative and cool. I definitely want to see it some day.
Wrist-slittingly depressing? Really? Life goes on in the form of inanimate-object creatures...it's not that sad. I can't see how it would be even moderately depressing, we all know the world can't last forever.

I'm not really sure why people are comparing this to Coraline at all. I guess Coraline is sort of dark, and not 2D, but that's about it. I'm interested in both, but 9 looks much more interesting. Coraline gives away all the plot in the commercials.
