I thought it looked cute. I don’t think it lives up to the classics.

@Heather- Why giggle at someone who grew up with a certain set of movies? Movies like Alladin, The Little Mermaid, and Beauty and the Beast were released when I was growing up. And, I also saw Snow White, Cinderella, and The Fox and the Hound. And I loved them. Just because the movies have become increasingly zany doesn’t mean they aren’t as good as the others. So before you laugh at anyone, just think that not all of us were around for the entire “75 years of magic.”

@Whit : I don’t remember the frog from Swan Princess, but I did notice the Alligator has an uncanny resemblance to the one in Don Bluth’s All Dogs Go To Heaven. Swan Princess was released by Columbia Pictures and Don Bluth used to work for Disney so, I’m wondering if some of the animators that helped develop the characters in these movies, are former or current animators for Disney.

Am I the only one who thinks this looks terrible? The frog character is smarmy and all the “pucker up baby” is just trying too hard. Trying to be “edgy”, like all Disney movies have since Alladin. The genie (Robin Williams) was such a hit with his crazy antics, that they think that’s the only formula. So much for thoughtful or interesting dialogue and characters… it’s got to be fast, glitzy, crazy, goofy, and over-the-top.

I had to giggle a bit at the comment of all their favourite “old” movies being shown at the start of the clip. Um, those are all “new” disney movies. The “old” ones — before Disney went ADHD — would be things like Snow White, Cinderella, the Fox and the Hound, etc. Interesting that in the whole “75 years” montage, they only actually go back about 20.

And while I think it’s great they’re going hand-drawn, some of those scenes look computer-generated to me.

Maybe I sound like an old codger heh. But I really don’t like the hyper-crazy style of most modern animated movies.

They’ve got to change it up and make it so she turns into a frog, otherwise the movie would be 5 minutes long!

Count me in! And my daughter just might want to see it, too – three cheers for hand-drawn animation! And yes, I know they changed up the story quite a bit – but that’s what Disney does…

I’m so excited to see this movie! It looks just like one of the classics.
And I think it’s good disney changec a lot of the storylines for the movies, because a lot of the original fairytales never end well…

It’s funny that this is the fairy tale that has been commented that Disney changed it. In reality disney changed alot of fairy tales to suit their own story lines.

Little Mermaid is not only not supposed to get the prince but dies in the end and Beauty and the Beast has the beast asking belle to marry him every single night and they are much colder towards each other

it’s just disney making it a little more family friendly and that’s just how I like it. SOOOOO EXCITED to see this movie!

Oh goodness, I cannot wait to see this! It’s nice that Disney’s releasing a traditional style, hand-drawn animated movie! I mean, yes, I loved the Pixar movies, but it’s been soo long since they released an animation like this that I can’t help but see this movie.

im not sure how i feel about this, ill be checking it out fo sure, but just by the look of the trailer and all, it doesnt seem like it will be a classic such as the little mermaid, beauty and the beast etc. it should have been something pleced in a faraway land or something more fairy tail-ish, the films that are placed in places we all know dont do very well, pocahontas? mulan?
