Last year, the documentary film March of the Penguins took home the Best Documentary Oscar. This year, I think penguins are taking another Oscar home, this one for animation. Introducing Happy Feet, about a little Empire Penguin called Mumble who has a gift for dancing. Go ahead, check this trailer out and tell me if it just doesn’t bring a smile to your face! To view other extremely enjoyable trailers for the film, go here.

The film sports an impressive list of actors -- Elijah Wood, Robin Williams, Hugh Jackman, Nicole Kidman, and Brittany Murphy.

Release date is not till November.  Time won't go fast enough, I assure you.
