Cinderella III
You know bradhig, that's a very good theory.bradhig wrote:Maybe Drizella is going side with Cinderella seeing Anastasia gets the slipper?
Did I really say that? I don't remember saying it...where did I say that? I think you might have misread something I said, because personally I feel both of them have strengths and weaknesses. It's true I felt sad for Cinderella when her dress was destroyed, then happy when she pulled out the other slipper, yet for Ariel...nothing, for some reason! I'm not a very emotional person, though.Flanger-Hanger wrote:This is why I called you the Cinderella expert! (also because you had the guts to say that Cinderella is better than the Little Mermaid. I completely agree but I would be to afarid to say that on this site)
And just to let you know, I got those Cinderella III images here.

Apologies if this has been mentioned elsewhere and I'm blind, but as has been mention there seems to be a link between Cinderella III and the cruise line's Twice Charmed. It appears there will be a bonus feature on the DVD about it:

Japan treats Cinderella III well...
It's okay, Flanger-Hanger, I've misread a lot of things people said on this forum. I still prefer the magic and beauty of Cinderella to that of The Little Mermaid, of course!
Anyway, I loooove Japan! You know why? Because I just found out they put up both their official web site for Cinderella III: A Twist In Time and their official web site for the Cinderella Complete Set! You have to check that set out, it comes with beautiful artwork and gold discs!
The Cinderella III web site does look nice, what with a spectacular look at the grand palace staircase, and getting a closer look at the Prince reveals him to be drawn better than I thought, but Cinderella's hair...blech! But now I agree with other members that Cinderella at least looks like herself in face.
Speaking of that image, did any of you wonder if Cinderella would be wearing that ballgown on the DVD's cover in the movie? The one she also wore in the first, original movie? Well, apparently, she will! I nabbed these images that seem to be still frames straight from Cinderella III: A Twist In Time! The animation and backgrounds looks beautiful! My only complaint is that Cinderella's dress appears to be...blue. It should be silver (like in my avatar)

Hmm...her gown does look silver to me in that pic (or, if you want to be literal, light gray). Even if it's actually a pale blue (which I don't think it is), I'd much rather take that over the Alice-sky-blue Disney usually puts her in for clipart. Oh, and holy crap on those backgrounds. 
I'm starting to feel sorry for Little Mermaid fanatics. Their film's sequel (based on that quick teaser clip) doesn't seem to be getting nearly as much attention to detail as Cinderella's.
And yes, kudos to the cover art artist for getting Cindy's facial features right as opposed to making her look like Barbie. Too bad he got her hair and gown colors wrong, though.

Cinderella II and III Reflections
Not much news, I'm afraid, but I thought I would at least settle something. Well whaddya know, Disneykid was right, it is silver:
Also, Amazon.com has this Cine-Manga (comic book with movie stills) for Cinderella III. From the looks of it, we'll be getting a transformation scene for Cinderella's anniversary garb similar to that in the first film (see my avatar).
Of course, nothing will ever be better than the original transformation in the first film, but I had been watching Cinderella II: It's Crap Boo Hoo the other day, and I remembered liking two things about it. One, that it had a creative arrangement of Disney dust when Jack becomes a mouse again, and two, it paid some interesting attention to the fairy godmother's Disney dust. One mouse captures it in his hat and throws it onto a container of brushes, pencils, etc., and they come to life, but make a mess, with minds of their own, and the fairy godmother stops it with a mere gesture. It's similar to the idea of stealing her magic in a way.
Speaking of that first sequel, I remember being so excited for it, watching the trailer over and over, not just because I liked it and the music, but to look for hints of the plotline. Little did I know I'd never figure it out because it had none! Although, I actually remember being excited, excited that the sequel would have not one, but three different stories! I thought it would be like three sequels in one! Then I realized much later, it's better to have one cohesive story.
So anyway, after that disappointment, I see this second and last sequel as payment for my let-down. How I would have been even more excited for Cinderella II back then if it had Cinderella III's plotline! Did you know I even made my own "newsletter" keeping track of all the info I could get on II for myself to just...get my excitement out?! Now I'm older, and things exciet me less, but I'm still pumped for this one!
And anyway, to conclude, I noticed they completely messed up the castle in II. First of all, they made the archways at the entrance into windows, they removed the clock from the tower (though it wasn't always seen in the original, either), and they made the turrets red! It's freakin' white, okay?! It's ALL white! Gah...
Also, upon re-watching II, the animation looked worse than I remembered it. There had been a few instances where I felt Cinderella did look like herself, and the stepmother too (in the very beginning of the last story, when she calls to Lucifer). But Lady Tremaine the rest of the time, as well as Cinderella most of the time, the Prince and Drizella...they all look better in what we've seen of III.
I just wanted to get my thoughts out.

Disney Duster, I can asure you that you won't even be able to compare the first sequel with this one, as Cinderella III has a totally different aproach, both on visual and story-telling level. The original art of Mary Blair has been studied for a long time before even starting development on this new sequel and it has reportedly really turned out swell.
I can report to you that in case of the castle's design, they started all over again and based themself on the original film, and thus this new sequel will have a lot more accurasy than the second sequel (or should I say "cancelled series"). A big challenge on this sequel was coming up with more rooms for the palace, as the original Cinderella only gave us glimpses of that interior. The story of Cinderella III happens mostly in the palace and the only thing that gave the producers cues as to how big things should be were the ballroom and the entry way to the ballroom. The end result they are going for is the feeling of little tiny people in a huge interior.
The producers always had in mind that the audience expects to be able to go back to that same world, and they did anything they could to achieve that.
Yes, I know more about the production, but I'm not going to give it all away since it will spoil the film. You can try to find this information on the internet, but you won't find it anywhere (unlike the storyboard of TLM 3 I told you guys about... Poor bandwidth of Tod!).
But if you really don't care about spoilers, here are some:
- Lady Tremaine will use the magic wand more than once. But it will eventually turn against her.
- At some point in the film, Lady Tremaine uses the magic wand to turn a pumpkin cariage, with the mice are transformed into horses and LUCIFER as the coachman!
- There will be a fake Cinderella in this film...
- This film will have 3 songs, as for as I know of (there will probably be more). 1 sung by Cinderella, 1 by the mice, and a strong opening song (retelling the original story of Cinderella).
Please respond to the spoilers in a white text too!

Jens reveals info and restores faith in Cinderella III!
PLEASE NOBODY TELL ME ANY OF THOSE SPOILERS IN WHITE I WANT TO BE SURPRISED SO TALK ABOUT THEM IN WHITE IF YOU MUST!
WOW, Jens, that was so kind and so informative and got my hopes up so much and I love you for that! You're amazing! I didn't read the spoilers because I want to be surprised. Last time I bought a coloring book for II and I ruined the whole thing (though the sequel itself was ruined, ha). But thank you so much! The fact that they made the dress silver is indeed a sign of going back to the original. Also, I remember loving Cinderella's huge architecture, and hearing them talk about it in this "Making Of" video I had.
By the way, did you get what I sent you about Walt Disney Feature Animation getting a new logo for its own movies, seperate from the one that premiered with Dead Man's Chest?
Once again, thank you so much, you've restored my faith and MUCH of my excitement. Thank you! How do you find this info, again? You know people who work at Disney...? And I thought that Tod must've put that up for a reason so people could see the storyboard, right?

It's my pleasure... I got the information straight from Disney, from a person that worked on the film. There should be more information globally available soon on the internet, but I guess I just got everyone here a scoop 
This film will be fantastic!
I did get your PM, but for some reason my PM is disabled... It was nice to hear that I was right, but even if I wasn't, it wouldn't have been a biggie
By the way... Artists have a site to show their talents to companies that would be interested in them and hire them, not for the general audience Oh well

Spoiler questions regarding Jens' comments:
A fake Cinderella? That's bizarre and yet intriguing. Is the real Cinderella aware that she's even in an altered universe, or does she go through the film trying to blindly stop Tremaine? Also, one thing that's been bugging me is how the concept of time travel will be portrayed in this film. Does Tremaine ever run into her past self from the first film? I'd have a lot of trouble buying the notion that she would replace her past self. All time travelling stories acknowledge the fact that if you go back in time, you'd see (and have to avoid) your old self.
If you choose not to answer these, it's okay, but I figured I'd throw them at you in case you feel more generous. Thanks for sharing what you have so far! I think this may be the first DTV sequel I blind buy on DVD; it looks to be that good.

What I meant with a fake Cinderella is that <following is a real big spoiler>>>>Anastasia will be transformed into Cinderella by Lady Tremaine, while the real Cinderella gets into a fake evil pumpking cariage to ride her to the ball (or of a cliff?)...>>>>>> I think this is the second attemp of Lady Tremaine to split Cinderella and the Prince...
About the time traveling thing... I think Lady Tremaine will turn back time, and not travel in time. There's a difference there I think. The only problem there would still be is that why everyone would still remember the "future" if the time has turned back. I actually think everyone but the Prince, Duke and King remembered what's in the future! But I'm not sure about that...

My word! Coming onto this board is like anticipation central!You can really feel the atmosphere of tension and excitement as this DVDs release nears. (If thats possible over the internet! )
I adore the stills from the movie, but I can't wait to hear the songs or some music from the film. This is what, in my opinion can make or break a film. And I so want them to be good. The music used in the trailer was wonderful. Not the Escape from the Palace at Midnight bit, as that is from Cinderella I, but the "ahhahhhahh" bit the chorus sings near the end. And this sound very simmiler to the title track 'Cinderella', which I hope they copy to some extent in C III.
Just my thoughts!
