They sold the film through that kind of advertisement, so it’d be kind of hypocritical to go back on the strategy at this point. Similar with the "Shrek 4Ever After" thing; Tangled was obviously chosen as the new title to appeal to that demographic, so it makes sense that they'd keep with the similarity for the short.

Listening to most often lately:
Taylor Swift ~ ~ "The Fate of Ophelia"
Taylor Swift ~ "Eldest Daughter"
Taylor Swift ~ "CANCELLED!"

Nope, no excuses. the smug smirk, one brow raised, eyes half closed thing is not a personality, it's a overused stock expression.

How exactly is this a Dreamworks thing? :p The 'tude was used long before they existed (think Looney Tunes merch from the early 90's, for example) and has already been in a lot of animated work, including Disney and Pixar. :lol:

Dreamworks didn't invent it, but they're the ones who seem to champion it the most.

Looney tunes have used it too of course, more so in the later years, past the golden age. Pixar has used it but doesn't abuse it in my opinion. Not on the same level as others. But no, their not completely innocent here either.

I'm just sick of this expression being used as the default go to expression for most animated movie posters/marketing.

Especially if it doesn't properly describe the film. It's even used for Coraline. :roll:

No, she hasn't been added yet. They'll probably add her after the coronation.

Wow, I should tell my 9-year old niece about this. She loves to perform all the time in front of people and actually does have a very good voice for her age.
