Originally Posted By FerretAfros It will be interesting to see what this turns out to be.

I 'm also incredibly excited that at this time, there don't appear to be any direct Disney brand tie-ins. I can't help but see parallels to Brother Bear and Tangled in there, but it seems like they're taking a more serious and broad approach to the show. While there's still obviously plenty that can change, it looks really promising
