I forgot to thank
pick. Tremendous and important find, bravo!

Maybe those are just the worst scenes, and you just targeted them out? A lot of the other scenes are beautiful in my eye. I don't think it's fair to judge the entire film through that 50 second compilation of clips. The movie may suck, and you could be completely right, but I'm completely happy with the way it is.
In MOST of the scenes she looks off-model. The ones I thnk look OKAY are when she's farther away and smaller and thus it's harder to see how she looks, or when her head is back to us. But even if she's not off-model, it almost all looks cheap and bad. I WILL give you that because she's younger, she could look different but she still looks
bad, poorly designed and poorly moved, and since Melody was in a crappily animated sequel, looking like her isn't a good excuse either!
As for judging the film in a 50 second compilation of clips, you're right, I can't judge the whole film from 50 second clips, but you did the same as me, just in a positive way, not a negative one. Anyway, I was specifically talking about the trailer, not the movie as a whole, and how it doesn't give any hint that the movie is going to be good, but I admit it still could be.

Personally, this trailer doesn't do a whole lot for me. I want a trailer thats actually going to make a specific statement about the story line. This says nothing at all. It's just random footage that basically states that this is a prequel.
I'll get more excited for a longer trailer.
Well, the thing is the Ariel in the trailer doesn't look enough like
any of Ariel in the original film, unless it's like for a frame or two before she moves into something totally different looking. But I do admit, as a younger Ariel maybe they created a different model. Still, it's a bad model. Also, I'm so glad you agree that there's not much to get excited about when they don't tell you anything about the plot. Or at least, nothing more than we already knew, which was still nothing to get excited about.

True, but I also loved CIII ,not only because of the animation and story, but also because of the characters! And I think you also did!
Well, the difference is that the trailer for
Cinderella III had much more to offer. Better animation, more hints at the plot, and more than just everyone looking younger. That trailer was exciting because of the
actions, this trailer is exciting (hardly) because of the younger designs! Anyway, it is true that I love
Cinderella III a lot because I love the characters, but it actually had a good story that I thought was good from the very first we heard about it: the stepmother uses the fairy godmother's wand to turn back time. That is much better than Kig Triton banning music.

this film will be even better then Cinderella III

Why do you think that? Just because you get to see everyone younger? I found no suggestions of that, and with the animation and story and whole trailer being less good than Cinderella III's, it actually suggests the opposite, that this movie will be not nearly as good as
Cinderella III.
Ariel'sprince wrote:I disagree,Disney Duster,the animation is wonderfull and is good as Cinderella III and Ariel is much on model then in both the series and The Little Mermaid II and Sebastian actually more looks like how he looked in The Little Mermaid II (look for example when Ariel is near the gate) also she does a little reminds of Melody and i think they wanted to make her look like that since it's a prequel.
And i know that Cinderella is your favorite Princess but i thought that you like Ariel,too.
I agree Ariel looks better than The Little Mermaid II and Sebastian looks like he did in that same movie. But that is all. I do like Ariel, but not enough to love a movie just because she's in it and is younger.
In fact, if all of you love Ariel so much, don't you want her to look like she did in the original, like she should? Don't you want her to look good? I do!
The animation in the Sneak Peek was actually better than in the trailer, or at least Ariel looked more like herself, and looked better. Here's a comparison, with the sneak peek on the left and the trailer on the right:
Now, here's Ariel in the original movie. You tell me, which one does she look more like, the sneak peek or the trailer?
And yet, she still doesn't look as good as either of them! Here's another example of the horrible animation from the trailer on the let next to the original movie's animation. Just look at the trailer's Ariel's arms and head compared to the rest of her body!
In the trailer, Ariel may be younger and need a different model, but why isn't this model as good-looking as he younger Ariel in the Sneak Peek? See, that's why the trailer's Ariel is sill bad. She and everyone else is out of proportion and they move awkwardly and blobbily! Do you know aht proportions are? Do you see how out of proportion everyone is?
Also, someone at an animation forum, who has worked in animation, says that the lighting and shading are what can make the animation look beautiful to you. Are you going to let the colors, shades, and light fool you? Everything is poor in form.
