On Monday Feb 18th, the entire episode of Oprah revolves around Blue Sky Studios upcoming movie, Horton Hears a Who.

"See what happens when the unpredictable Jim Carrey, the legendary Carol Burnett and The Office's Steve Carell get together for the first time."

Although I am really anxious to watch Horton hears a Who ( the visuals are stunning) . I fear many of us simply don't watch oprah.

LOL...I wouldn't consider myself someone that watches Oprah either. I was just passing the info on because I'm sure they will be showing clips from the movie. :)

I think Oprah should have all the Blue Sky artists there and give them all a car.

But I suspect there won't be much mention of animators or modelers or storyboarders on that show.

Here's a link to the sneak preview that was shown on Oprah: there are some new shots.

Disclaimer: Just because I found the clip does not mean I am a regular Oprah watcher either :-D

@ Robcat,

I like the way you think.

I'm sorry I wasted my time watching this today.

It was basically a kiss Jim Carrey's and Carol Burnett's ass show. A Horton Hears a Who-themed show was just a ploy to get them both on stage at the same time. At least when they did the Bee Movie show they actually talked about the movie, showed clips, talked about the development process a little, ect. I felt bad for Steve Carrell though. JC was kinda doing everything possible to steal his spotlight at every possible opportunity.

they did show a bit from the movie, but I agree, I wish it were more. That was a pretty big endorsment by Oprah though. : )
