I definitely agree that the film doesn't skew to older girls, but they were never really TRYING to do that. And to think that "older" girls are EVER going to flip for "Disney Faeries" is, I think, wishful thinking. They should develop more properties ala "Kim Possible" if they want to accomplish that.

Lasseter has oversight over all these divisions. >>>The unit is in the process of firing about 160 of its 800 employees as it slows production to about one movie every 18 months from one movie every year. Pixar has kept its offices in Emeryville, Calif., which are not being cut back.<<<
