<p>I always love it when a little gem appears out of nowhere to brighten your day. This one is a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9_(2009_film)" target="_self">post-apocalyptic film called <em>9</em></a>, and I knew nothing about it until Insane-Lark posted a <a href="http://www.duckandcover.cx/forums/viewtopic.php?t=22507" target="_self">thread</a> about a new feature-length adaptation of it. Don't know how it slipped through the cracks. Here's the basic plot:</p><blockquote><p><em>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 (Wood), who displays leadership qualities that may help them to survive.
The conflicted, but resilient group includes 1 (Plummer), a domineering war veteran; 2 (Landau), an aged inventor; 5 (Reilly), a stalwart mechanic; 6 (Glover), a visionary and artist; and 7 (Connelly), a brave warrior.[2][3] The trailer also depicts 3 and 4 as identical, hooded rag dolls, and 8 as a hulking warrior, whose number is marked on his left shoulder unlike the others, who bear their numbers on their backs.</em></p></blockquote><p>The movie is being produced by Tim Burton and is based on an Academy Award nominated <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9_(film)" target="_self">animated short of the same name</a>. You can watch <a href="http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=hgJ0_QScu3g" target="_self">the original here</a>, and the trailer for <a href="http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=lV6tTePBMJA&NR=1" target="_self">the new movie here</a>.</p><p>Thanks again to <strong>Insane-Lark</strong>!
