Even though to some people this might not be a suitable Under the Radar, there are still a fair amount of people (even among my peers) who have no idea what it is when someone mentions Shane Acker’s 9. Being pumped up by Focus Features, 9 is a cgi animated movie that seems, to this reporter, to hold a mix of Coraline and a sprinkle of Tim Burton within the layers of this post apocalyptic feature. Originally coming from the short animated film of the same titling that was nominated for an Academy Award in 2005, the creation coming from up and comer director and writer Shane Acker will be storming into theaters.

9 takes place in a world parallel to our own, in which the very legacy of humanity is threatened. A group of sapient rag dolls, living a post-apocalyptic existence find one of their own, 9 (Elijah Wood), who displays leadership qualities that may help them to survive. The conflicted but resilient group includes 1 (Christopher Plummer), a domineering war veteran; 2 (Martin Landau), an aged inventor; 5 (John C. Reilly), a stalwart mechanic; 6 (Crispin Glover), a visionary and artist; and 7 (Jennifer Connelly), a brave warrior.

9 will be released in theaters everywhere on September 9th, so show your love for Under the Radar and see it when it comes out.

The boys over at Latino Review have scored an exclusive clip from the good folks at Fox Walden, and we want to share it with you!

City of Ember is based on the adaptation of Jeanne Duprau’s now famous book. Here is a bit about the book/film adaptation.

For generations, the people of the City of Ember have flourished in an amazing world of glittering lights. But Ember’s once powerful generator is failing… and the great lamps that illuminate the city are starting to flicker. Now, two teenagers in a race against time, must search Ember for clues that will unlock the ancient mystery of the city’s existence, and help the citizens escape before the lights go out forever.

City of Ember stars Tim Robbins, Saoirse Ronan, Harry Treadaway, Bill Murray, and Martin Landau. What more can you ask for in a magical universe than some of these stellar stars.

The film comes ot theaters on October the 10th
