Considering he's the same voice as Tiana's Dad, Yes.

What does that have anything to do with it? Ray and Tiana's father are two different characters.

From what I've heard about some plot points that I wont exactly spoil, that bug Ray is holding wouldn't be his child. I don't know what it is exactly though. Maybe it's his pet/friend?

Maybe. It must be important to his character, otherwise it would be weird to have him holding something that is trivial.

So far that image has only been used for that calendar, and we havn't heard about it at all. From what it seems, it really could be a very small character. Heck, we've even known about Mama Odie's seeing eye snake. I don't think it's anything big.

I'm having a flashback to the "too similar to Wizard of Oz" discussion that occurred on the 1st topic, where we were speculating similarities between Human and Animal characters.

none of the pictures on that site are working for me. Is there a way to post them here?

Great pictures! I wish I could be there. There's probably tons more stuff there than what will end up on the DVD.

Awesome! Thank you Amy!!!

I'm so excited for this film! I saw the set of Disney Princess Dolls at target the other day that features Tiana mixed in with the others. I kinda freaked out a bit and looked at it for a while. I can't wait till more publicity gets out there!

If you loved those pictures, you will love this! Look at this new feature they updated on the official website! It is called "Wish On A Star" where you can go in and read other people's wishes or just make your own. I sat and read about 20 of them, too too cute! I love how Disney is bringing back the "magical" feel of the animated movies!

Okay, I was surfing the Internet for pictures of PatF merchandise, and every single item I saw has that Disney Princess emblem on it... I'm not dissing the DP franchise (God knows I enjoy *some* aspects of it), but come on, Disney, let this movie breathe a little on its own!

Yeah, I thought that feature was really awesome. It also paid tribute to the company's "Wish upon a star", something that hasn't been used to promote a Disney movie in YEARS.

From an article about the Ponyo panel at Comic-Con:
(MINOR SPOILER ALERT) I highlighted potential spoilers, but the second spoiler really isn't a spoiler if you've seen the trailer.

http://www.laughingplace.com/News-PID512840-512841.asp

To the delight of the crowd, two sequences from The Princess and the Frog were screened. First was a musical number featuring the nefarious Dr. Facilier and Prince Naveen, newly arrived in New Orleans, accompanied by his stuffy valet Lawrence. It was followed by a second clip that emphasized comedy. As Clements explained, Naveen, now a frog, spies Tiana at a fancy dress costume ball and assumes she is a real princess. Summoning up all his charm, Naveen persuades her to kiss him, but as she is not a real princess, she is also transformed into a frog. The clip that followed depicted part of their misadventure in the bayou, as a clumsy Louis attempts to help them untangle their unfamiliar frog tongues and seek out Mama Odie.

They threw the line around quite a few times when Pinocchio's PE was released :wink: which is still techincally a movie.

It's just that lately they haven't released any movies where that line if fitting. imo, i personally don't even like it being used (it's very childish afterall). Rather I wished they made 'to home from work we go!' or something they 'moto'.
