Thanks for posting! I tried to look for the original source, but couldn't find it. The link is from the film's official Twitter (or X now, I guess) account, but Disney hasn't released it officially yet, right? I guess what you posted is an unlisted link. Maybe Disney was planning to release the TV spot this week for Disney Princess week. I wonder what they'll do now that it has leaked. I think the first full trailer is more likely to come out in September, but we'll see.

Now that we have it in better quality, we can see details like the "M" Magnifico has on the back of his cape, which no doubt stands for his name. Yet another sign of his big ego.

I don't know, it doesn't look like Keane's whole painterly concept to me, but beautiful in a different way, more similar to "Paperman." Personally, I don't think it looks like Tangled at all? It looks much better than the finished Tangled ever did, tbh, that film was quite ugly to look at at times.

To be honest, after seeing the TV spot, I`m a little torn about it. The part where Asha runs from the house looks nice. But the visual style looks too generic and flat as a whole. Besides, the opening joke also feels a little superfluous and doesn`t really blend with the rest of the tone of the Spot.

I feel like that’s probably the beginning of the movie where we see Magnifico look all nice, but as it progresses, he’ll be seen as the villain and Asha has to figure out how to stop him on his own.

The style’s supposed to be flat to show why the backgrounds look like water paintings in the way Sleeping Beauty had, which Asha running out to adventure from her house is supposed to be a callback to.

You're right, I looked it up and originally Keane wanted Tangled to be more like classical Rembrandt paintings that is indeed very different than the watercolor approach that Wish is using. Also, I do agree that in comparison to the likes of Frozen, Moana and Encanto; Tangled does feel incredibly washed out at times, not ugly IMO, but very washed out.

Agreed, also I think the shot of Asha running through the forest with those cottages in the background, might be the opening number.

Director Fawn says that the tv spot is just a tease before the actual trailer drops. https://imgur.com/nozZt9Z

There used to be a Dario Hernández on Days of Our Lives. I like that name.

Bazeema reminds me of Bazooms. That’s the best name they could come up with??

Where did you find that? Is there a source? If those are their names, I actually like them.

Interesting discovery! I think we could know which name belongs to each character as apparently every name begins with the same letter as the dwarf they're inspired by. I already suspected that when we learned Asha's Doc-inspired best friend was called Dahlia. I've used the image Prince Kido created and added the new names:

Image

Darío and Simón are Spanish names and I think Gabo is short for Gabriel, although in Spain Gabi is a more common nickname for people with that name. This character might not be non-binary as we suspected after all judging by the name. Bazeema sounds Arabic to me, but I don't know about Safi and Hal. Does anyone know any of those names or if they're short for something?

Well, I just rewatched the segment from Good Morning America from April where Ariana DeBose suprised her biggest fan Jazz Smith with a ticket for 2 (both DeBose and Smith) to go to the Hollywood World Premiere of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Wish this coming November: https://youtu.be/S6ogsKjnybE.

It was really a genuinely touching, if not very emotional, moment given everything I’ve seen from this moment when it happened on April 27th, 2023.

It would be a real shame if her wish that just came true was taken away because of the greed of studio executives like that of Disney CEO Bob Iger, due to their refusal to pay the writers & actors for all they’ve made for them.

Iger, PLEASE just swallow your ego & pride and end the strikes by giving the writers and actors what they want so not only the film will stay for its theatrical release in 13 weeks from now (which I am glad you’re still sticking to and hope you still stick to), but so also the film’s world premiere can happen so the wish Ariana DeBose granted for Jazz Smith can still come true and not be lost. Please listen to the customers, consumers, and cast members for what they want you to do for them. THIS IS KILLING PEOPLE LIKE MYSELF to see you still can’t let go of your ego. PLEASE just let it go already and pay your workers and talent to avoid having this film’s premiere be cancelled FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

PLEASE?!?!?
