Robert Zemeckis Will Performance Capture Fantasy

Robert Zemeckis Will Performance Capture Fantasy Robert Zemeckis is continuing to put pretty much all of his eggs in the performance capture basket. His ImageMovers studio and Disney have picked up the film rights to The Stoneheart Trilogy, a children's fantasy series by Charlie Fletcher, which they plan to turn into a performance-capture animated movie.

Oddly enough, according to The Hollywood Reporter, the third book in the series is called Silvertongue, which was precisely the name for people with a certain gift in this January's fantasy release Inkheart. Coincidence? Or are all releases intended for children melding into one weird fantasy mishmash?

The rest of the Stoneheart plot actually sounds fairly different from Inkheart, following a London boy who finds himself in a magical world where statues come to life and a battle between good and evil rages on. But I guarantee you there will be some confused children when this movie hits theaters, if they aren't already confused enough by the creepy way motion-capture makes everyone look kind of dead inside. Thanks a lot, Zemeckis.
