The ‘Early Man’ trailer.

Early Man is very… British.

It’s also very Wallace and Gromit, or at least very Nick Park.  From what I can tell, it’s about a bunch of Stone Age people having to deal with a bunch of snooty, egotistical, and decadent neighbors who have Bronze Age technology and French accents.  And soccer.  And toilet paper humor. And… look, this just looks kind of ridiculous, in the good way.

Early Man comes out February 18th.

Tweet of the Day, You Had Me At ‘Wallace & Gromit’ edition.

When I saw that there was a new show coming out called ‘Early Man,’ I confess: I shrugged.  Why should I care about animated cavemen?  Well, I should care because it’s the same people who did Wallace & Gromit, Shaun the Sheep, and Chicken Run.  And Chicken Run is AWESOME and anybody who tells you otherwise is probably not FEELING WELL and you should be KIND to them, out of PITY.

So there.
