I agree...those clips brought back that excited feeling when a new traditionally animated film came out and we all wondered what it was going to be like.
Nowadays, it's all about the voices, how great the hair/fur/textures are, and how offensive the wind gags are...
No sound on the clip (or was that just me?) but the look is so "ahhhh"...
I understood that we'd get the whole short (hopefully presented in 1.66:1 anamorphic widescreen and with a smattering of bonuses like a commentary and maybe the other story routes they went).
Then again...I'd love to see this pop up on that compedium of animated shorts that's supposedly coming out this summer...we haven't heard anymore about that since it was announced when Roy came back "home", so hopefully it's still on.

I think that was supposed to be a collection of Oscar-nominated shorts, but maybe Little Matchgirl will get an Oscar nomination.
Yeah, it was an Oscar nom set, but no harm in hoping that we'd get some "extras" which might be hard to fit into any other release!
BTW, I'm guessing now that if that set is still on that we may finally get the Pixar shorts out there now that they're Mouse House-owned.
Since only a few got noms, maybe the Mouse could put out a decent "Pixar Shorts" collection, from Andre And Wally B up to One Man Band (thus also creating Oscar buzz for that film)...???

I've often wondered how neat it would be if they did that - in fact I think I mentioned it once around here somewhere.
this looks so good. i am going to have to pick up a copy of the little mermaid now. i think we were getting one either way. but now it gives us so much more reason.
the story sounds classic.
i havent read the book.
now i want to.

More to drool over - it's gorgeous! Come back to us TRUE Disney animation! We miss you [CLICK HERE] Reminds me of the opening of 'Anastasia' here and there - also quite beautiful!
I'm not surpised Paris had a role in this...some of that looks very much like Hunchback's opening...lovely.
This really should get a theatrical showing (on the front of Pirates 2, please!) to qualify for the Academy Awards next year.
Nevertheless, the good buzz this has been getting around the web means that people are ready for GOOD cartooning again. I can't wait for more from this, and more from Disney animation!
Yeah it does have a Hunchback look. Now that'd be nice to see a 2 DVD come out for.... Not enough on my 'Special Edition' one disc affair! Esp. when I look at my 'Art of Hunchback' hardback. Sigh.
