Award-Winning 'Pingu' Breaks the Ice with A Brand-New DVD Release
Publish Date : 1/15/2008 6:22:00 AM Source : Entertainment News Onlypunjab.com
You've marched with some. Surfed with others. Danced with a few and their very happy feet. But you've never met a cooler penguin than Pingu, the internationally beloved animated character breaking the ice in North America with the all-new DVD release, "Pingu: On Thin Ice," gliding into stores Jan. 29, 2008 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment and HIT Entertainment.
Created by Swiss animators Otmar Gitman and Harold Muecke, Pingu is a charming, cheeky young penguin who connects with kids of all ages and has a knack for mischief and a flair for flippered fun. Pingu spends his days playing with family and friends, including his best friend Robby, his dad (whom he helps at the post office), his sister, his mother and his grandfather. Like any growing penguin, Pingu has a healthy appetite guzzling fish whenever he can find them.
Young viewers will love Pingu's hilarious antics, despite the fact that the only language spoken is the quick-tongued, gibberish-like "Penguinese." Whether he's exploring ice caves or playing fish tennis, looking after his sister or just hanging out on the snowy banks of his Antarctic home, hearts young and old will warm up to this delightfully quirky and loveably unique friend.
Pingu is currently seen in more than 155 countries, including the US on PBS KIDS SproutSM. The show has received numerous awards and honors including The Best Animated Short at BAMKids Film Festival in the U.S., a Finalist Certificate at the New York Film Festival, and the Audience Award at the New York Intl. Children's Film Festival among many others.
Eight delightful stories on Pingu: On Thin Ice include:
- Pingu & the Snowball
- Pingu & Pinga Go Camping
- Stinky Pingu
- Pingu's Ice Sculptures
- Pingu's Balancing Act
- Pinga Has Hiccups
- Pingu Gets Lost
- Robby the Snowboarder
