I was disappointed with the trailer slightly, but I still have hope as it was only a teaser.
It should be noted that the teaser trailers Pixar releases are NOT in any way indicative of the film's quality. Plus, the teasers don't always show a scene from the movie. It shows you an IDEA of what the movie may be like, but again, nothing that spoils the whole movie.

I am still not managing to conjure up much enthusiasm for this release, which is sad as I love the first one so much.

Don't know what it is about the storyline, but it just isn't inspiring me .... which does make me sad. :(

I agree and realise this; that's why I said 'but I still have hope as it was only a teaser'.

So cute that they actually made shirts and sweatshirts with extra sleeves LOL. I wish I could afford a sweatshirt, but not at $42.

Here you go.

Btw, I've created a thread about how to use the search function now that it's glitchy. Perhaps you'll find it useful.

Geeze, they have gotten really good at rendering fur. I feel like they could even do the Muppets justice in CG if they wanted to.

I especially liked this extra touch:
No pets are allowed on campus, with the exception of seeing-eye snakes.

Wow, that site is amazing! I can't believe they actually created a whole entire website for a fake university. Colour me impressed.

I'm pumped for this film. It'll be so fun! :pink:

I'm amazed at that college site. So many details! There's even a display of the outdoor temperature of the campus in the bottom left corner.

Are those renders? because they look hand painted to me.

While there is real merch there I don't think the multi sleeve is a real item, its been "sold out" since the site went up, I assume its just for show.

I love the designs. So slick, so modern. :)

I see Terri is based on the original designs for Celia (she was going to have 2 heads).

I know! This is one of the Pixar sequels (I should say prequel though) I will look forward to. The setting and plot is perfect. :D

Ehh, you think so? Its not exactly the most practical kind of shirt for most humans. It'd be the definition of of a niche market in fact.
