Yes, I am still a little butthurt that "Minomoys" became "Invisibles" for the title of Arthur and the Invisibles, but that doesn't mean i don't dig what we have been shown so far. The trailers look a fresh take on CG animation and this latest poster finally gives us something other than Arthur enjoying the comforts of plant life.
Arthur and the Invisibles Movie Poster
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 is still slightly camera shy, which is understandable considering his hair went from dark and curly to white and electrocuted-straight during his transformation to, well, CG, but at least this time around he has brought some friends to share the spotlight with him.
