While there are no MCM events for exclusive coverage this month, there are still plenty of other events that MyM Magazine has the inside track on. Along with a personal report on some of the highlights from this year's mud caked Glastonbury, there is also coverage from the Annecy International Animation Film Festival in France. This event has become the world's largest animation extravaganza and this year included some real gems, such as the hotly anticipated Red Turtle, co-produced with the legendary Studio Ghibli, as well as seeing Guillermo Del Toro in attendance to promote his new animated Netflix show from Dreamworks, Trollhunters.
The features are full to bursting with fantastic articles and exclusive interviews, too. Animated films take centre stage as Andrew Stanton, the Director of the Finding Nemo sequel, Finding Dory, sits down with MyM for an exclusive chat. The 5th Ice Age movie, Ice Age Collision Course gets the same treatment, with Co-Director Mike Thurmeier, and the series mastermind Lori Forte also giving an exclusive interview, talking about this new iteration and the potential of future films. With the upcoming Summer in the City event in London (12th-14th August) MyM has an exclusive sit-down with the event's creators, Dave Bullas and Tom Burns, to talk about where the show came from, how it has developed, and what people can look forward to this year.
There is an absolute ton of game previews and reviews this month after a particularly superb E3 this year. The previews show off some big titles, Nintendo has its long awaited The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Hideo Kojima brings his first original work since leaving Konami in Death Stranding, Kratos takes on the Norse pantheons in a new God of War and, finally, Resident Evil channels PT in a return to horror form.
