Monsters vs Aliens
February 9th 2009 06:17
Monsters vs. Aliens is an upcoming 2009 computer-animated 3-D feature film from DreamWorks Animation. This will be the first computer animated movie which will be produced in real 3-D instead of converting the film into 3-D after it is finished, which will add $15 million extra to the film's budget. The film is scheduled for a March 27, 2009 release in the USA. The Australian release date is April 2nd.
When California resident Susan Murphy (Reese Witherspoon) mysteriously grows to 49 ft 11 in, she is labelled a monster and taken in by the military to an institution housing for other monsters: Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D., an insect-headed mad scientist (Hugh Laurie), the Missing Link, a thousands-of-years-old fish-man (Will Arnett), B.O.B., a gelatin-like, jolly, indestructible monster (Seth Rogen) and Insectosaurus, a fuzzy bug that stands at 350 feet tall, making even Susan look tiny by comparison. When a UFO lands and an alien overlord named Gallaxhar (Rainn Wilson) demands that Earth be given to them, General W.R. Monger (Kiefer Sutherland) suggests to the President (Stephen Colbert) that the monsters can provide the firepower to defeat the aliens.
Cast:
* Reese Witherspoon as Susan Murphy (Ginormica): On the day she was supposed to marry local weatherman Derek Dietl, she was hit by a meteor filled with a strange substance that mutated her DNA, causing her to grow into a 49 foot 11 inch tall woman. She is impervious to nuclear and atomic forces. She is based on the film Attack of the 50 Foot Woman.
* Hugh Laurie as Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D.: When his teleportation device backfired, he ended up with the head of a cockroach. He is a great inventor and a mechanical genius. He seems to prefer being referred to as a mad scientist. He is most likely based on the film The Fly.
* Will Arnett as The Missing Link: A 20,000 year old frozen fish-ape hybrid thawed out by scientists two thousand years after the Ice Age. Based off of the Creature from the Black Lagoon.
* Seth Rogen as Bicarbonate Ostylezene Benzoate (B.O.B.): Created by the accidental mixture of a genetically altered tomato and a chemically-altered ranch-flavored dessert topping. He is an indestructible gelatinous mass with no brain ("It turns out you don't need one!"). It is based off of The Blob
* Insectosaurus: Transformed by nuclear radiation from a one inch grub into a 350 foot monster. He has the ability to shoot silk from his nostrils, and speaks in unusual roars which only The Missing Link can understand. It seems it is actually very sensitive (emotionally). Seems to be based off of many of the Japanese-styled monsters.
* Rainn Wilson as Gallaxhar: An alien leader who plans to take over the planet Earth.
* Stephen Colbert as President Hathaway: President of the United States who does not want to go down into history as the president in office when the world came to an end, and therefore agrees with General Monger's plan to defeat the aliens.
* Kiefer Sutherland as General W.R. Monger: Comes up with a plan to let the imprisoned monsters fight the aliens.
* Paul Rudd as Derek Dietl: Susan Murphy's fiancé.
