Missing Link 《遗失的环节》

　　Don’t miss Missing Link. While most US animation studios concentrate on computer-generated cartoons, Laika has advanced the art of stop-motion animation via the quirky likes of Corpse Bride, Coraline and Kubo and the Two Strings. Their current film is written and directed by Chris Butler, who made Laika’s Oscar-nominated ParaNorman. A family-friendly adventure, Missing Link features an arrow-nosed Victorian explorer (voiced by Hugh Jackman) and a mild-mannered, fur-covered giant (voiced by Zach Galifianakis) who happens to be named Mr Link – Susan Link, to be precise. The odd couple sets off around the world in search of more Yetis, and on the way they bump into characters voiced by Emma Thompson, Stephen Fry, Matt Lucas and David Walliams.

　　不要错过《遗失的环节》。就在大多数美国动画制片厂都在做CG动画片时，莱卡工作室却还在坚持发展定格动画艺术，比如《僵尸新娘》、《鬼妈妈》、《魔弦传说》这种风格诡异的动画电影。这部新动画的编剧和导演是克里斯·巴特勒，他曾制作过莱卡工作室获奥斯卡奖提名的《通灵男孩诺曼》。《遗失的环节》是一部合家欢冒险电影，讲述的是一个维多利亚时代的尖鼻子冒险家(休·杰克曼配音)和一个性格温和、浑身是毛的巨人(扎克·加利费安纳基斯配音)的故事，这个巨人名叫“环节”，确切的说，他的名字叫苏珊·环节。为了寻找更多雪怪，这对怪人踏上了环球之旅，在路上他们遇见了由艾玛·汤普森、斯蒂芬·弗雷、马特·卢卡斯和大卫·威廉姆斯配音的其他角色。
