New ChubbChubb short in theaters now:


From VFX world:

"The characters from the Academy Award winning CHUBBCHUBBS are arriving in theaters in a new short titled THE CHUBBCHUBBS SAVE XMAS, which will debut on August 8, 2007, before TriStar Pictures' DADDY DAY CAMP.

Meeper and his ChubbChubbs visit Earth and encounter Santa Claus, who is voiced by Jeffrey Tambor (ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT, THE LARRY SANDERS SHOW). The little aliens with the bottomless stomachs are searching for somewhere to call home. Led by the kind but awkward Meeper, the nicest guy from the planet Glorf, the fanged fuzzballs inadvertently scare the naughtiness out of a budding delinquent as they pinch hit for Santa, and in the process learn that home is more than just a place to live.

THE CHUBBCHUBBS SAVE XMAS was directed by Cody Cameron and produced by Kirk Bodyfelt for Sony Pictures Animation. In addition to Tambor, it features the voices of Brad Simonson returning as Meeper and Jeff Wolverton back as the ChubbChubbs.

Cameron, David Feiss and Jurgen Gross wrote the story, which includes the main characters from Sony Pictures Imageworks' THE CHUBBCHUBBS!, an original story by Wolverton. Original music is by Ramin Djawadi (PRISON BREAK, OPEN SEASON).

THE CHUBBCHUBBS SAVE XMAS and THE CHUBBCHUBBS! are also included as special features on the Sony Pictures Home Ent. DVD release of SURF'S UP, which goes on sale Oct. 9, 2007, on DVD, Blu-ray and PSP. "
