[quote="DisneyDude2010"]Wow Love Red Pascal

Did anyone else find it fishy when Rapunzel said in the previous feature
"Take me to see the world" Well to me it didn't sound like Rapunzel and I was right (so glad she sounded so american) quote]

What's wrong with sounding American? :/

It's kind of painful to know some of these people were laid off... at least, since we know so many were laid off I'm just assuming some of those guys were among the unlucky bunch.

They look like a great team though.

Hey, jij komt uit nederland! Grappig zeg, een mede-hollander :D (heb dit topic pas net ontdekt)
Heb jij misschien verstand van animatie opleidingen in NL? Het is echt mijn droom om ooit bij een grote animatiestudio in de U.S te werken, maar ik heb geen idee welke richting ik precies moet kiezen.

Just chatting in dutch, people. Sorry :P

is wel erg off topic maar oké :P

Het is lastig om te zeggen wat nou echt de beste is. Er zijn wel een aantal goede opleidingen. Ik zou ze zelf zo niet kunnen noemen. Wat je in ieder geval moet doen is goed worden. Schaf spullen aan en ga animeren. Teken zoveel als je kan zo vaak als je kan. Ik heb zelf illustratie/animatie gestudeerd aan de kunstacademie maar dat is niet te vergelijken met wat jij graag wil.

Ik meen me te herinneren dat er in België ook een goede studie zit. En uiteraard in Engeland, maar ja. Succes in ieder geval!

But back to English and back on topic.

OK. Now that was the trailer I wanted to see.

Is it wrong for me to like the fact that this has gotten a PG rating for brief mild violence? Because it really seems to hint that movie is definitely a bit darker than what the trailers and merchandising imply and from what I read in the books, it really looked like it was heading toward PG.

Did anyone else see the promo they had during Glee? The first substantial ad they've had for the film (that I know of, anyway).

The only problem: that promo doesn't look to attract any non-Disney fans. It doesn't look to attract Disney fans either. It seems completely in the middle, playing to noone.

But people flocked to Alvin and Chipmunks, so maybe I'm wrong. Still, I felt the same way about TP&TF's marketing and...well, that didn't turn out to be a substantial hit either.

And, imo, the animation is fairly unimpressive. There are shots that have a nice gleam to them, but too many look like your average 3D fare (and a few, worse). Glad I got a free ticket with the B&tB Diamond Edition. If it actually turns out to be good, I'll buy a second ticket.

"PG!"

Oh relax. At least it's not for any crude humor or anything like that.

Sorry, it's just there is no reason why it shouldn't be G. Mulan was G and that had TONS of action, also it had blood.

Another reason I'm upset is Rapunzel is going to be added to the Disney Princess line, some parents won't let their kids see the movie because it has a PG rating. I also think that they may have wanted it PG, so it would appeal more to boys. :headshake: Sorry I'm upset, but there isn't any good reason why it shouldn't have been rated G.

Well, I've noticed that in the various storybook adaptations, they're very vague over how Gothel injures Flynn during the climax. It's possible she stabs him in the gut or something, which would automatically put it in PG territory. Mulan's action never actually showed any impalement, just people getting punched and kicked bloodlessly.

Besides, the MPAA's standards have gotten more strict, so you can't compare 90s film ratings to now. How else would you explain a science fiction movie with a little blue alien getting a PG for his comedic mischief while a dark drama with an elderly man lusting over a woman a third of his age and later trying to burn her alive gets a G?

Oh, and I loved this TV spot more than any of the theatrical trailers. It's actually the first time we hear Rapunzel's name spoken outside of those EPK featurettes. Kind of odd, though, that there's still no sampling of the songs. You'd think Disney would want to attract Glee's audience by showcasing some of the tunes.

I understand that most of you Disney fans do not pay attention to the likenesses on Facebook compared to Disney's, "Rapunzel (Tangled)," and DreamWorks Animation's, "Megamind," but check this out.

Rapunzel (Tangled): 24,567
Megamind: 25,031

DreamWorks Animation's, "Megamind," is 464 likenesses away from Disney's, "Rapunzel (Tangled)." Looks like we are going to need more reinforcements to get more Disney fans to like Rapunzel (Tangled), if you can find some. Just a thought.

Het is lastig om te zeggen wat nou echt de beste is. Er zijn wel een aantal goede opleidingen. Ik zou ze zelf zo niet kunnen noemen. Wat je in ieder geval moet doen is goed worden. Schaf spullen aan en ga animeren. Teken zoveel als je kan zo vaak als je kan. Ik heb zelf illustratie/animatie gestudeerd aan de kunstacademie maar dat is niet te vergelijken met wat jij graag wil.

Ik meen me te herinneren dat er in België ook een goede studie zit. En uiteraard in Engeland, maar ja. Succes in ieder geval!

But back to English and back on topic.
In België heb je 4 scholen voor animatie:

1 in Gent ( zeeeeeeer moeilijk om binnen te geraken, ik was gezakt op alle vakken en vriendelijkheid kennen ze daar totaal niet)
1 in Genk ( stort bijna ineen, zo een rot gebouw)
en 2 in Brussel ( mocht ik niet mee doen omdat, en hou je vast, ik TE GOED was)

and back to english and indeed back on topic :)

WHAT AN AWESOME TRAILER! :D :D now i'm even more excited!

LAATSTE nederlandse bericht, ik beloof het:

bedankt voor de tips, jullie allebei :) Ik wil misschien eerst naar Utrecht, naar de hogeschool voor kunsten. Daar is ook een opleiding animatie, en het is meer in de buurt van waar ik woon. Alleen zit ik op mbo niveau, dus eerst maar een leuke tussenopleiding zien te vinden ;)

That was the last dutch message, guys! back to english and sorry :P

Bytheway, in the beginning of the trailer where Rapunzel combs her hair, you see her lips moving like she's singing or something. That's probably where she sings 'When will my life begin' :)
But i love the energy in this trailer, it makes me wanna dance!
