Can't believe they managed to get so many licensed characters into the game. I hope it turns out well. I'm kinda worried it won't make much though as the marketing seems to be pretty poor so far...

And here's one more proof that Sarah Silverman is physiologically incapable of being even slightly funny no matter how hard she tries. Of course we all know how it is with Disney Animation teaser trailers. Any resemblance to what eventually shows up in the theaters is purely coincidental.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I'm from the post-1983 generation (though on the older end of the spectrum), and I think that it's an interesting concept. I've never really been into video games, but I recognized most of the characters in the intervention-type room. Although the individual characters don't mean too much to me, the concept behind the film does seem pretty intriguing. From what the trailer shows (which may or may not be anything like the final feature), it doesn't really seem like a typical Disney film. Perhaps it was the marketing team, but there definitely seemed to be Dreamworks-esque vibes from the overall plotline of the film. Then again, it's reminiscent of Bolt in a way (hero's journey), which is one of my favorites, though it's not a 'typical' Disney movie. The other intereseting thing about this is the cast. None of them are really people that I would associate with Disney, or even family-friendly entertainment. I guess they've all done something at some point that's a little more family-friendly at some point, but it seems to be the exception, rather than the rule. With most Disney movies, the background of the voice actors really doesn't have much impact on the final film (notable exceptions being Robin Williams/Genie and Eddie Murphy/Mushu), so it probably won't be an issue

Originally Posted By basil fan Maybe that's the point: he's cast as a villain, but you feel he's justified, and so he becomes the hero of the movie. Fed-Speak <a href="http://www.whatsitsgalore.com/etc/fed.html" target="_blank">http://www.whatsitsgalore.com/...fed.html</a>

Originally Posted By lesmisfan I was born in 84 and played video games until about 1997-1998, really lost interest, but this movie really has me interested! just reminds me of the games i used to play.
Originally Posted By x Pirate_Princess x I saw the trailer again tonight (saw Brave a second time) and it does look good. They're promoting it on Disney Channel, so my daughter knew some of the one-liners from the trailer. We'll probably see it.
