Hoo Boy: New Legends of the Guardian Trailer Has Owls For All Seasons

“From Warner Bros. Pictures, the studio that brought you Happy Feet …” That’s as specific an internal endorsement as Warners is ready to give its this fall’s animated epic Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole , whose new trailer declines to mention director Zack Snyder (“From the director of Dawn of the Dead , 300 and Watchmen ” just didn’t have the same family-friendly ring) and a voice cast including Helen Mirren, Geoffrey Rush, Abbie Cornish, Jim Sturgess and Hugo Weaving. This one will live and die by its animation, thank you very much. Lucky them: The strategy worked.
