I love it when our kids get pumped about the same film that we are. I heard our 9 year-old laughing as he was watching a trailer on the tablet the other week. “Daddy,  when does Missing Link come out”?, he said from the other room.  Missing Link, rated PG, comes out on April 12 and  it’s from Laika, a studio that can do no wrong in our book. The technical precision that started in Coraline is continuing with Missing Link and we’re giving away family four-packs of tickets to the sneak preview in Atlanta on Saturday, April 6.

I’m a fan of stop-animation. I admire the precision and passion that go into each movement, as well as, the uniqueness that it displays on film. Granted some standard animated films get close to that feeling, but something is just not quite the same. I’ll also submit that a bad script can’t overcome the beauty of the how it’s created.  To that end Missing Link look s like it’s set up Laika for a solid, entertaining film.

The trailer has some nice physical gags to entertain younger viewers and the dialogue appears to be sharply written with just enough dry humor to touch older audiences. Of course, all of this is mute until audiences can see the film and render a verdict for themselves.  The sneak preview of Missing Link in Atlanta is Saturday, April 6. It’s in the morning and we’ll let winners know exactly when and where the showing will be. Hint: It’ll be around midtown…., so it’s centrally located to wherever you are around the ATL.

To enter, just leave a comment in this post or RT the tweet. We’ve got a handful of 4-packs to give away.
