He's supposed to be funnny becuase he uses a "Camp Spanish Accent" which is, alledgedly "hysterically funny to listern to".

Never mind that Puss-In-Boots is supposed to be French, not Spanish. But they couldn't use French could they, because their Robin Hood in the original Shrek had a "Camp French Accent" which was, alledgedly "hysterically funny to listern to". Never mind that Robin Hood is, of course, English.

If you need to have a funny voice to make something funny, then generally its not funny in the first place.

And if your film is going to be filled with parodies (like the first Shrek was, and the second one is reported to be) at least do some research and make sure your parodies are accurate.

Thank you!!
So glad that the whole Robin Hood thing actually bothered someone else...makes me feel a little bit better and that I'm not alone in my feelings about this. And now they're doing it AGAIN with this Puss-in-Boots character

Hmm, It's not bad and with Guillermo del Toro as an executive producer and creative advisor, I have high hopes for this film. The music of the trailer sounded very Zorro/Pirates of the Carribean-esque.

Del Torro offered advice on Megamind.

Anyway, I'm not really sold yet. Humpty just doesnt look that great and it doesnt even look like it's gonna follow the original fairy tale.

Why is this thread in the "Off Topic" section? Anyway, I'm willing to give this one a try. I hated "Shrek," but loved the Puss character, so I have some hopes for this one.

This is an old thread. Before there was a Movies, Music, and TV section.

Anyways, I liked the trailer. I won't see the movie in theatres, but I'm sure I'll end up buying it.

Yes, I understand that, but it could have been moved by now.

Guillermo del Toro Shakes Up "Puss in Boots"
http://articles.latimes.com/2011/sep/04 ... s-20110904

"It is not a send-up of fairy tales," says Miller, who wrote and co-directed "Shrek the Third." "Our approach was, you thought you knew how all of those fairy stories went, but they went this way. Then from there, let's make sure the characters are driving the comedy and story, steer away from the popular culture references and make it a real character piece."

But even with those guidelines, the "Puss" team got a little stumped in shaping the movie — until Guillermo del Toro ("Pan's Labyrinth," "Hellboy") joined the team as an executive producer. "Guillermo was a gift to us," Miller says. "The film had been coming together in this great way, but we had hit that point where in a weird way we had taken it as far as we could. We needed someone to liberate us creatively and sort of shake the tree. He expanded the way we saw the film at the perfect time in the process. He's been just a gift for us."

Wow, DreamWorks, now my mixed reaction is going to borderline bad. I mean, not everything in that promo was funny. A couple, yes, but not funny. I mean, sure Shrek 2 was entertaining and funny, but this was just weak.

It's just a viral promo video, people. It would be more accurate to judge the film from a proper trailer than from this. Don't you remember that even Tangled had some pretty crappy viral videos? You can't really tell the quality of the finished film from those.

Yep, pretty much. And I didn't think the "Legendary" one was so bad, it's just a parody of the Dos Equis campaign which isn't supposed to be laugh-out-loud funny anyway.

And I like how the new one's a parody of the Old Spice commercials.
