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!
