This just released this weekend, it's an animated film from Lucasfilm produced by Georgie boy himself. The director said the story is based on Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream and also on the movie Labyrinth, featuring a girl going in to enemy territory to rescue a sibling.

It was pretty good. The thing that the trailer didn't show, and I think I've only seen one, is that there's a lot of musical numbers in it. I'm talking animated characters doing song and dance numbers to rock music. I'm not sure how recent some of the music is as I didn't recognize it, but I did recognize an instrumental version of The Doors' When You're Strange, there's Elvis, Queen, and obviously Electric Light Orchestra's title song.

Lots of fun, definitely recommended.

[edit to add] And it has a left-handed swordsman in it! I didn't notice if he was consistently a lefty, but still....
