The song performed at the Expo was the opening number and it's called "We Know the Way".

Ron Clements has definitively aged. No offense.

Megara's too thin! Jasmine's too thin! Even Ariel's too thin! How does Moana classify (in any way) as being too thin??

As we all have a tendency to do ...

I think you mean definitely, not definitively.

Yea, I can see how the bingo image is making fun of the usual dumb complaints there are about Disney movies, and that there could be people who think she's too thin, but really, she is very far from thin.

The character isn't anorexic, corset-laced, bodiless rib cage thin, but she is what I'd consider real world thin. Her lower legs are given a larger shape than you see with most animated characters, but that's body type or there to give the impression she's muscled--not chubbiness--considering her waist is completely flat.

I just thought it was sad that we're so used to seeing impossible figures on animated female characters that we call a physically attainable waistline "chubby" now.

Not bad at all! I hope they'll translate his features into the CGI model, though I doubt it.

Sorry. Remember that I'm not an Native English writer.

While Megara is skinny indeed, I though Giselle from "Enchanted" was the closest to be an anoretic (no offense to anoretics)

I heard that Maui's tattoos are going to be 2-D animated with supervision by Eric Goldberg. Is this true?

That's actually interesting. Can't wait to see how the movie will execute such an idea.

Where did you find those rumors?

At D23, they showed a very brief clip of the tattoos in action. It did not jump out at me that they were hand drawn but probably just something I missed. My point being that if they are hand drawn, the contrast wasn't so striking that the average audience goer would notice it.

The scene was humorous,ending with Maui giving one of the tattoos a dirty look, and was a strange cross of the end of Spoon full of sugar when Mary Poppins is glaring at the nightstand doors, Sword in the Stone where the sugar bowl is doing his own thing, Pocahontas where Grandmother Willow is giving the evil eye to whichever woodland creature would not be quiet and Emperor's New Groove where Kronk's shoulder angel is doing pushups.

Dinah Jane on auditioning for Moana:

So, as of now, NO ONE is the voice of Moana. This was right after the Expo. Her bandmates are adorable!

Moana is referred as the first Polynesian princess. Well, thats's better than to mess up the fact that she's not the first Polynesian heroine, haha.

But Dinah is hot. *Sighs*.
