Nov 11, 2012 FLATLAND 2: SPHERELAND now available at 'Sphereland' is the sequel to 2007's 'Flatland. Flatland 2: Sphereland. The exciting animated sequel to 'Flatland: The Movie' starring Kristen Bell, Danny Pudi, Michael York and more!.
A young scientist from 2D space must solve mathematical mysteries to save a doomed space mission and discover the true shape of her universe. In a world of only two dimensions, length and width, the geometrical inhabitants of Flatland dismiss the idea of the third dimension. But when a scientist (Danny Pudi) discovers a mathematical anomaly, he turns to the only person who might listen - Hex (Kristen Bell), an outcast mathematician shunned for her ideas of the third dimension. An unexpected reunion with Spherius (Michael York), a 3D being, plunges the two Flatlanders into a journey across dimensions as they race to discover the true shape of their universe. This series does a great job of making complex mathematics beautiful and compelling. By using story and imaginative characters and scenery, the movie draws you in. Plus they have top notch voice talent like Martin Sheen and Kristen Bell.
There's also a few really funny moments as well. A great piece for all ages and great for the classroom.
They even sell a package with both movies and a teaching kit for kids. This stuff was all hand crafted by animators, writers, and directors right here in America. Homeworld Cataclysm No Cd Patch 1.01 here.
You would never guess they had a shoestring budget with all the fancy animation, computer generated images, celebrity voice actors, and tightly edited story. I hope to see this on PBS some day with my kids.
