2. In the posters and trailers, it is the characters that are the main emphasis. We watched two trailers and looked at four different posters. On the posters, the actors are never mentioned. However, one of the trailers Ben Stiller appears narriating the story. We went to imdb.com and found the following stars in the movie: Sacha Baron Cohen, Cedric the Entertainer, Bernie Mac, Jada Pinkett Smith, Chris Rock, David Schwimmer,20Ben Stiller, and Will I Am. Mainly considered a children’s animated movie, from the trailer we gather there might be a little bit of adult humor. Eric Darnell and Tom Mcgrath, who directed the first Madagascar, directed this movie as well. Dreamworks is hoping to turn the Madagascar movies into a franchise like the Shrek movies. The posters seem to be similar in the way they show the main characters grouped together. The trailers show their plane crash and then the realization that they are stuck in the African planes where they came from.

These are the four different posters used to advertize the movie. On three of them, the "gang" is together. On one of them, we see the famous Madagascar psychotic penguin and the zebra's eye looking throught the shipping boxes. We also see the lyrics of their signiture song "Move it" as background on two of these.

4. On the official site there is a lot of different thing to do. You can talk to the different characters in the movie and even play games with them. There is also a way to download the movie trailer or wallpapers and buddy icon for your computer.
