"This musical resistance needs us, Ernest!" The adorable bear and mouse are back once again! GKids has re-released the official trailer for the animated adventure sequel called Ernest and Celestine: A Trip to Gibberitia (this is for the original French-language version). The follow up to the Oscar-nominated Ernest & Celestine (2012) once again features the famous unlikely duo – this time returning to Ernest's hometown in Gibberitia. Nominated for Best Animated Film at France's 48th César Awards, Ernest and Celestine: A Trip to Gibberitia opened in French theaters in December, and had its US premiere as the opening night film of the New York Children's Film Festival. Jean-Christophe Roger, director of the Ernest & Celestine animated series, returned to the beloved characters as co-director, and is joined by Emmy-nominated co-director Julien Chheng, who worked on the original Ernest & Celestine feature as a character animator, and directed "The Spy Dancer" from the latest Star Wars: Visions series.

Troy Baker will be playing Booker while Courtnee Draper takes on the role of Elizabeth as Irrational lays out the "Mass Effect," "Kingdom Hearts II," and "Sealab 2021" vets among the cast portraying the heroes and villains of "Bioshock Infinite."
You can find the full cast list after the jump.
The coolest thing about this cast list is that it's populated by veteran voice actors and not simply sprinkled liberally with television and film actors putting in a couple of hours in the booth. "Dishonored" had a great cast of performers turning in one of the more uninspired collection of voice overs in recent memory.

Top Cat
Stars (the voices of): Jason Harris, Chris Edgerly, Melissa Disney, Ben Diskin, Bill Lobley | Written by Kevin Seccia, Timothy McKeon | Directed by Alberto Mar
I hope I’m not going to negate any of my assiduously collated street credibility, but when I was little I used to really like Top Cat. Looking back, I believe I’m correct in saying that it was a reasonably witty and funny programme and it’s not simply nostalgia that’s influencing these fond memories. I remember my sister and I used to watch a Top Cat VHS that we won in a competition run by Little Chef pretty much on loop some days. So when I was invited to attend the preview screening of Tc’s big screen debut, I was cautiously excited about it. Obviously, the film is aimed very much at youngsters, but surely there’d be plenty...

The Angels' Share (15)
(Ken Loach, 2012, UK/Fra) Paul Brannigan, John Henshaw, Gary Maitland, Jasmin Riggins, Roger Allam, William Ruane. 101 mins
If anyone can cut it at Cannes, Ken can, and this recent surprise Jury Prize-winner sees Loach doing what he does so well: dignifying ordinary lives and chronicling social history as it happens. The tone is a little lighter this time, though, as we follow a violent young offender's potentially fruitful encounter with the whisky industry, thus bringing together the best and worst of Scotland.
Prometheus (15)
(Ridley Scott, 2012, Us) Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron. 124 mins
With all the zealous promotion and yet tight secrecy, this long-awaited Alien prequel couldn't live up to fans' expectations, could it? There's no way of telling at the time of writing, so let's just say it'll be a brilliant triumph, and a complete disaster.
