MUST WATCH: Dreamworks Animation's "Monsters vs. Aliens" Trailer

At long last the much anticipated "OFFICIAL" release of the MONSTERS VS. ALIENS trailer is upon us! This is the first major tentpole release of Dreamworks Animation's (DWA) new "3D all the time" strategy and it looks to be a real winner.

I had seen a bootleg of this trailer back in early August and was asked to remove it by DWA pronto - which I always comply to. This version seems to be practically the same although the title effects are different.

For those who do not know much about the movie itself, Monsters vs. Aliens is directed by Rob Letterman and Conrad Vernon, produced by Lisa Stewart and co-produced by Jill Hopper and Latifa Ouaou. The film marks the theatrical debut of DreamWorks Animation's Ultimate 3-D, the studio's proprietary production process of authoring its animated films in 3-D from start to finish.

When California girl Susan Murphy is unexpectedly clobbered by a meteor full of outer space gunk, she mysteriously grows to 49-feet-11-inches tall and is instantly labeled a "monster" named Ginormica. The military jumps into action, and she is captured and held in a secret government compound. The world learns that the military has been quietly rounding up other monsters over the years. This ragtag group consists of the brilliant but insect-headed Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D.; the macho half-ape, half-fish The Missing Link; the gelatinous and indestructible B.O.B.; and the 350-foot grub called Insectosaurus. Their confinement time is cut short however, when a mysterious alien robot lands on Earth and begins storming the country.

As a last resort, under the guidance of General W.R. Monger (on a desperate order from The President), the motley crew of Monsters is called into action to combat the aliens and save the world from imminent destruction.

The voice cast includes:
>Kiefer Sutherland - General W.R. Monger
>Reese Witherspoon - Susan Murphy
>Stephen Colbert - The President
>Seth Rogen
- The Jellylike B.O.B.
>Rainn Wilson
- The Evil Alien Gallaxhar
