Who knows?

He's probably not supposed to look like a boring cock-head with a carrot up his date, but he does.

Since when were Disney princes interesting characters?

The image posted by Lacey on page 6 looks great in comparison to the aintitcool.com link.

Like drugmassacre said, why would they release those images? They come off as half baked. I'm sure they have other material, as I get the feeling this is really rough preliminary art.

I'll wait to see more.

Eesh...it's like it's from a direct to dvd movie. Which is a shame then, because if character designs like that are gonna populate backgrounds like on the previous page, then damn. There's some sad difference.

Looks like $#it with hair :( Sick.
Now that I see them both turned into frogs, probably ends like this :x (you know, with all that originality slapped on the movie and stuff)

1) The preview is actually kind of exciting.

2) I'm still not excited to see the film.

the more footage i see of this film the less excited I get about it

It does have some outrageously gorgeous backgrounds though

If they would have skunked the voice-over it'd be kind of cool.

In the tradition of beloved history 75 years all that. I didn't like it when Pixar pulled it on the first Wall-E trailer, it seems a little desperate. I see where they're going (it's like this other stuff you liked!) but they aren't selling the cool stuff.

I guess I shouldn't complain, they aren't having a creepy digital Walt Disney introducing their trailers yet.

Be nice, if it weren't for all that, I would never have known Disney has made other films before.


How come the princess is scared that the frog can talk, but not that the frog has eyes on the top of his head, instead of where frog eyes can usually be found? Or that he has teeth? A toothy frog would be terrifying.

Not bad. I'm not against it yet.

It has not gone against anything of the known Disney "house style". Whether it is story/art. It has the Disney flourish amongst the subtle "style" changes.

The design, of what I believe to be the films antagonist is interesting,.

The comedic timing is on point.

No problems for me right now.
