The two films premiering this weekend share some common ground; both have ensemble casts, both rely heavily on computer generated animation, each are part of a greater story and both chronicle epic journeys. But don't be fooled, one will make you scream in terror and one will make you howl with laughter.

Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted - The voice-over cast is back as the misplaced troupe of zoo denizens continue their quest for the Big Apple.

Prometheus - According to director Ridley Scott, this mind-blowing film with an all-star cast, is set in the same universe and timeline as his original masterpiece ALIEN, and might even hint to the forth-coming Blade Runner sequel he's working on.
