Consistent with the concept art we've seen, the animation is pretty amazing. There's something about the depth and texture that I don't think I've seen before in computer animation. It really does seem like they took the Disney hand-drawn style of animation and translated it into computer animation.
Regarding the movie itself, I guess I'm lukewarm. Based on the few scenes we're shown, it looks like they're trying a little too hard to convey the message that this is not a "princess film." The trailer gives the majority of screen time to the hero, emphasizes a jokey tone, and the name "Rapunzel" is never even mentioned. I'm not sure if that's the right way to go. I'm also disappointed by the continuing trend of using the clunky "Disney" brand title (instead of "Walt Disney Pictures Presents" or "Disney's"). It just looks awkward. All in all, I'm still interested in seeing more, so I suppose that's a good thing. But what about everyone else?
