No te preocupes! There are lots of songs I haven’t heard of either. I’m a big Streisand fan!

Well, having gone through all the different formats that Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 was shown in, even RealD 3D, it looks like we won’t see the trailer for Wish on the big screen until The Little Mermaid comes out.

Just saw the first TV spot for Disney's Wish on ABC's American Idol's Disney Night episode.

Also, check out this magnificent illustrated poster for Wish that was made: https://twitter.com/SanjayCreates/statu ... 80610?s=20.

That was the first I'd seen Wish on a TV screen rather than YouTube. It looked even more gorgeous than before. The details of the hair in the side shot at the end are just... *chef's kiss* The song may be growing on me. At least I liked what we hear of it more than I did the first time? We'll see.

Really? Cool Was there some new shots on that Spot?

No

Look what I found. Video of the 1st 1-minute TV spot, which aired during the penultimate episode of ABC’s #AmericanIdol, Walt Disney Animation Studios’ #Wish, only in theaters this Thanksgiving: https://youtu.be/bsH91YfaJys.

Good job on marketing #Wish early, Disney.

Now, make sure you keep it up throughout the rest of the year until its release as this is THE grand centerpiece finale to the big celebration of #Disney100 that could be as big as #Frozen at the global box office. It needs all the 3 trailers, multiple TV spots, and all the attention it deserves w/ special pop-up tours on the film.

Basically, it needs more and more marketing.

Also, PLEASE, Bob Iger, PLEASE give it an IMAX release as well. Since it’s being released in the same aspect ratio that #LaLaLand and the original #SleepingBeauty were in, it would be nice if you gave this an IMAX release (along with multiple sing-along engagements of the movie too) so that Wish has enough time to leg out from late November til late February until Disney and Pixar’s #Elio hits theaters on March 1st, 2024.

Thank you. See you all in November for the long-awaited, much-desired, big return to Disney Renaissance-era-style storytelling.


P.S. I was lucky to see the trailer for Wish in front of two showings of The Little Mermaid this weekend (Dolby Cinema 3D and IMAX). Did anyone else see the trailer for Wish in front of The Little Mermaid, too.

It played in front of my screening as well. It was my sister's first time seeing the trailer. She's a huge Chris Pine fan, and when I told her it was him narrating, she got real excited.

Anyways, I also hope they pull out all the stops for marketing this film. They've been really lax on that for their animated films these last couple years (both WDAS and Pixar), but given that they're billing this as their culminating achievement for the 100 year celebration, they might put some thought into it. They've already dropped a teaser way earlier than they would for other films. Maybe it'll translate to box office revenue, and that'll carry on through to their upcoming animated output.

Let’s hope you’re right, PatchofBlue. Because with Pixar’s Elemental and Lucasfilm’s final Indiana Jones movie now looking all but certain to flop, thanks to mixed reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, Haunted Mansion (even if it’s good) likely bombing with a $150M budget, and The Marvels likely to barely break even (along with The Little Mermaid), if I were Bob Iger, I’d put all of Disney’s marketing resources entirely into Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Wish to ensure it caps off a very rough 100th year at the box office for Disney (outside of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3) on a high note with a global cume as big as either Big Hero 6, Moana, Zootopia, or Frozen.

I also saw the trailer before TLM. I'm in love with this movie so far, I hope it ends up being good. I don't know how much it'll make when it comes out, but I do feel like it's certain to be successful. At least Moana / BH6 level, but it would be nice if it managed to do as well as Zootopia and Frozen. I didn't even think about it in scope of the company as a whole, it would be very nice if the biggest win for them this year came out of WDAS--especially with them using a more Paperman-esque technique at that.

They also advertised the new Spider-verse sequel, I can't wait to see it.

They can make Wish as big as Frozen by marketing it as hard as Universal did for The Super Mario Bros Movie or as hard as Disney marketed Frozen 2, Wreck-It Ralph 2, Zootopia, or Pixar’s Coco.

Amazon has uploaded the cover of the art book:

^That's a nice concept art. We had already seen it, but in lower quality. The landscape reminds me a bit of Brave or The Secret of Kells.

Here's another book cover. I wonder why Star has decorated all the trees with that ribbon or whatever it is in this illustration.

Gorgeous. The woods remind me of Sleeping Beauty.

Thanks for posting those covers! The cover for the Art of-book was truly gorgeous. And Asha definitively looks African in the second cover.

Which is the same movie with the same aspect ratio that Wish will be formatted in... CinemaScope, which is why I think they should give it a release in IMAX.

Oh, I hope it does get an IMAX release. I would definitely see this one in IMAX if that was an option.

It's true; they remind of Sleeping Beauty too. The concept art looks a bit like the still below in particular. Even Asha's pose and placement within the frame are similar to Aurora's, and she's also wearing a shawl. Maybe it's another reference to a Disney classic.

Oh, good point, I didn't even think about her pose, it is very similar!
