Went to see Toy Story 3 today. Overall, it was a worthy sequel/tribute to the first two movies (although, I would have to say the second is still my fave). My favourite parts of the movie include Buzz Lightyear en Espanol and the large stuffed (if silent) Totoro. WANT.
However, I was caught off guard by the trailers they showed before the movie (most of which I had heard nothing about until now): the third Narnia installment, "Voyage of the Dawn Treader"; the Smurfs movie (CGI Smurfs in New York *shudder*); and Disney's CGI Rapunzel movie, which is now called "Tangled".
Now, the one that interested me the most was the Rapunzel movie; I had heard about it a while back, while it was still called "Rapunzel". The fact that they changed the name worries me a tad (although the new title is reminiscent of Disney's "Enchanted", which I enjoyed).
Like "Enchanted", "Tangled" seems to be going for the comedic route; other notable alterations include turning the prince into a thief instead, and that Rapunzel appears to use her hair as extensions of herself (as weapons, to swing from, etc.).
My initial reaction to the trailer was mixed, but I'll wait and see... I really liked "Princess and the Frog", but since this is Disney's first foray into CGI + fairy tale, I can't help but compare it to Shrek (and going the comedic route doesn't help that :/). Still, ever since Pixar has been charge of Disney's animation studio, I've liked everything they've put out... So, I'll stay cautiously optomistic about "Tangled". ;)
In other news, I want/need to finish my FE contest entry, but I can't quite do it. XP (Doesn't help that I'm writing about a pairing that I'm fairly blase about; plus, the computer room is uncomfortably warm to type in lately, bleah.)
