'Arthur Christmas'
Columbia
Release Date: Nov. 23
Aardman Animation, the gents behind those classic 'Wallace and Gromit' cartoons, take a break from claymation for this 3D CGI animated adventure set in the North Pole. When an important gift fails to reach its Christmas tree destination, it's up to Santa's bumbling son Arthur, his cranky Grandsanta, and a team of hi-tech elves to make sure that present gets there in time. Expect lots of sly British slapstick with the voice talents of James McAvoy, Hugh Laurie and Bill Nighy. -- Eric Larnick
