Bodyfelt.
After the disastrous food storm in
the first film caused by his machine, Flint Lockwood and his friends are
forced to leave the town of Swallow Falls. Flint accepts the invitation
from his idol Chester V to join The Live Corp Company, which has been
tasked to clean the island, and where the best inventors in the world
create technologies for the betterment of mankind and planet Earth. Upon
arriving back at Swallow Falls, Flint discovers that his machine still
operates and now creates mutant food beasts like living pickles, hungry
tacodiles, shrimpanzees, and apple pie-thons. It is up to Flint and his
friends to put a stop to the machine once and for all before this new
form of foody life breaks from the island and invades the planet. With
the fate of humanity in his hands, Chester sends Flint and his friends
on a dangerously delicious mission, battling hungry tacodiles,
shrimpanzees, apple pie-thons, double bacon cheespiders and other food
creatures to save the world again.

Phenakistoscope (1831) A phenakistoscope disc by Eadweard Muybridge (1893).The phenakistoscope was an early animation device. It was invented in 1831 simultaneously by the Belgian Joseph Plateau and the Austrian Simon von Stampfer. It consists of a disk with a series of images, drawn on radii evenly spaced around the center of the disk. Slots are cut out of the disk on the same radii as the drawings, but at a different distance from the center. The device would be placed in front of a mirror and spun. As the phenakistoscope is spun, a viewer would look through the slots at the reflection of the drawings which would only become visible when a slot passes by the viewer's eye. This created the illusion of animation.
