Certainly better than...<I>shudder</I>...Mickey's Twice Upon A Christmas. :(

But not theatrical quality. At least from <I>Disney</I>. That said, I really do hope the Lasseter reworking gives it that potential to go to theaters. I'd pay to see a decent 80min+ Tinker Bell movie.

Yes, they are "what happens next" images. And since the story proved that love rules our destinies, then it would calculate that, whatever the circumstances, Anastasia would eventually meet and fall in love with the Baker. It might end up happening in another way, but it will happen as this is their...

You'll find Jerry likes the DreamWorks stuff every now and then. I do like how they don't go out of their way to agree with each other.

I thought we did learn "Chip"'s name by the end.

Wasn't it... <I>Larry</I>? ;)

What's that Wal-Mart one? Anything actually any good, or just a few minutes of the slugs singing? ;)

Wait. Glen Keane has left Disney? :shock:

Knowledable fans. Which is what they were before someone took them seriously and published their work.

And I actually do like their stuff...but preferred the older look site. :)

Pirates should and hopefully will win. Superman was anything but super, and Poseidon tanked long before the CGI ship turned over, but Pirates really did transport us back to an amazing world, coupled with frankly stunning character work. Like Kong last year, this has to be the hands down obvious cho...

And we've been having freak hot sunshine! Actually, I did a silly thing a couple of weeks ago, walking across town to my Mothers after we'd had two days of snow. I thought it would be cool to surprise her and walk (about 45 minute fast walk) and wrapped up warm but was a bit sniffly when I got there...

Yeah, I've seen the full cut. I love when he breaks down in front of Moff Tarkin..."I once posed for a nude pic-ture!"

Priceless.

Nah, he's just good at pilfering 1950s looks and ammending them.

Nice to see them swipe our Animated Views retro look we have on our section logos! ;)

I agree with Vi here. I'd love to see Don Hahn running WDFA mach I, not WDFA Pixar mach II.

It seemed quite different to me from the Raimi version. Somehow, much more "Batman"! :) Then Raimi was right to ask to change it to something more Spidey then, right? After all, it <I>wasn't</I> a Bats picture, and didn't have that intention. And yeah, I liked Ottman's first FF score, but have seri...

I didn't think that teaser (we're talking about the one by the lake?) was theatrical quality.

But as I've said before I see no reason not to make a spin off like this. My hope with Lasseter's tinkering is that it goes theatrical. That would be fun. But not as it is right now.

The first 22 minutes of Indy/Doom is probably the best "popcorn" movie opening. It never stops!

And I love the Tarzan opening too...perfectly economical storytelling.
