Though I loved the original titled to the film, Arthur and the Minimoys, the recent poster for the Luc Besson animation is a solid reminder that it is now called Arthur and the Invisibles. Minimoys are out, Invisibles are in.

10-year-old Arthur has a lot on his plate: a real estate developer is about to snap up his grandma's home... and there's no way Arthur's going to hang around for his parents or grandparents to sort out the problem. Maybe the solution lies in his grandpa's treasure, which is hidden somewhere on the "other side" in the land of the Minimoys. The creatures that inhabit this world are just a tenth of an inch tall and live in perfect harmony with their environment.
Arthur ventures into this world of the Minimoys, where he meets Princess Selenia and her brother Betameche. Together they set off to look for the treasure that will save his grandma. An action-packed adventure ensues, full of pitfalls and intrigues, all the way up to the forbidden city ruled by the evil M the Malicious. Arthur's journey in the Minimoys universe reveals that sometimes the smallest heroes make the biggest difference.

The first trailer for Arthur and the Invisibles seemed like a polished mix of The Ant Bully and Monster House (animation wise). Though I first thought the story seemed pretty adult-ish, it is still hard to say without a feature trailer.
Arthur and the Invisibles comes to theatres on January 12th, 2007.
