I just realized that I failed to describe anything about the story of “Andrew Henry’s Meadow.”<\/p>\n

I don’t want to give too much away. But it’s basically a modern fable about an isolated town called Catatonia, which is one big metaphor for America at its worst: spoon-fed drones that all dress alike, work in cubicles and raise their kids with television. As I mentioned before, this will be a highly stylized world, so “fable” is the best word I can use.\"\"id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5063144396273939346\"<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Our hero, Andrew Henry, is an inventive boy who thinks outside the box. He escapes the town to discover a beautiful, fantastic meadow beyond it. Other kids follow him, and build their own homes up in the trees. Eventually the kids must return to the town to save everyone from the monstrous company who controls it. The ending has a real action-packed climax. <\/p>\n

That’s all I will tell you. Anything more will ruin the fun. But this should be enough to go on during the developments of the next several months.<\/p>\n

The movie a HUGE leap away from the original book. Adam and Zach have used that story as the tip of a much bigger iceberg. It’s going to be a fun fantasy spin on our entire culture, with a great message. After this movie, kids may not believe all the hype of the next candy-flavored drink commercial they see. At least that’s the hope.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
