Second 'Sucker Punch' Animated Short: 'Dragon'
I'm not sure how many of these there are
The second of Ben Hibon's animated shorts tied in to the release of Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch (3/25) has arrived. This one is titled "Dragons" and can be watched directly below.
The story behind this one is as follows:
In Sucker Punch, the girls drop into a castle courtyard and find themselves in the middle of a chaotic battle between a hoard of gruesome Orcs and an army of Black Knights. The original cause of the massive conflict is hopelessly lost amidst the death and destruction. "Dragon" is a tale of religious persecution exploring the origin of this conflict. Who is the righteous and who is the heathen?

Presenting animated shorts inspired by Zack Snyder's new film, Sucker Punch. Director Zack Snyder and animator Ben Hibon collaborated with Comflix Studios to further explore the fantasy worlds in the film. The animated shorts provide a distinct glimpse into those surreal places, allowing people to experience the worlds in a very unique way. "It made sense to me to not only approach the worlds from an original direction in terms of story and focus," says Snyder, "but also to really push the visual style in a different direction as well. Having seen his contribution to the latest Harry Potter film and looking at some of his other recent work, Ben's talent was obvious and his aesthetic felt like a perfect fit. His work is graphic and visually arresting." Hibon relished an opportunity to expand upon Snyder's unique vision. "Zack is one of the most exciting and original directors working in Hollywood today. Sucker Punch is nothing short of pure visual madness."

This guy should have directed the whole movie. These shorts are awesome
Hehe, maybe I wont win an Oscar for acting or script, but I think I'll have a good time watching this movie
Pretty cool. I like that theyre setting up the villains of the movie like this…probably be at least one more, Id guess for the robots.
And I could be wrong, but is that Keith David narrating?
Actually, I think you're wrong. :)
Unless _I am very much mistaken, that's Lawrence Fishburne.
Though, Keith David is a good guess.
