Animals have always blended in well as characters in movies
and games. While some animals get their fair share of attention and are born
stars, others fall into the shadows. Here are a few animals that have had more
than their 15 minutes of fame because of movies and games that celebrate the
awesomeness that comes to them naturally.
Penguins
Penguins are adorable, unique and live in the Antarctica,
which is not the most accessible place on earth. Lest they are forgotten, we
have seen quite a few penguins game and movies in the
last few years. From the tap-dancing Mumble in Happy Feet to Kowalski, Skipper,
Rico and Private in the Madagascar series, penguins have never had it this
good!
Dragons
Dragons have captured the imagination of cultures across the
world. These mythical beasts have been bequeathed with many qualities. They are
seen as both protectors and destroyers, making them ideal characters to feature
in games and movies. A few of the famous dragon-themed movies and games include
Spyro, Dragon Nest, Dragon Eternity, How to Train your Dragon, Dragonheart and Reign of Fire.
Rats & Mice
From their widely entertaining cartoon avatars, as the cute
and mischievous Jerry in Tom & Jerry, and as Mickey and Minnie Mouse, it
was not surprising when the mouse made its way up the big screen. There is
nothing mousy (or ratty) about their celebrity personas in Stuart Little, Ratatouille
and Ben.
Lions
The lions have had no dearth of publicity being naturally
charismatic and uncontested kings of forests. But what sealed the deal on their
might was the
memorable scene in The Lion King when Rafiki holds the newborn Simba up to
cheers. Other movies where lions have roared include Madagascar and The
Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
Animals have nothing to complain about as they continue to
be popular with kids whether in the wild or on a mobile app!
