I seriously cannot wait to hear Alan Menkens new songs, he is the real brain behind the Disney revival of the late eighties, early nineties...

From the clip of music I heard in the trailer & on the official site, it sounds like this film will have some really catchy tunes in it - and hopefully, the return of the characters singing all the songs and not a narrater. If this is Disney's last 2-D film for a while, it should get back to the early 90s style.

I'm sorry, and no offense, but I really cannot believe you people. You're actually excited about this movie? You think it's going back to the early '90's style by having characters singing the songs. I admit, that's true, but not when the characters are, and I quote, "three bodacious bovines!"!

This is truly the end!

Can't believe us people? You have 750 posts on a Disney DVD message board and don't even have a DVD player!

Seriously tho, we haven't seen this movie yet so you can't know if it will be good or not. From what I've seen it looks to be funny and wild, I think that it is going to be a really fun movie. Also we are Disney fans and 2D animation fans, that's part of the reason we are excited for this movie, espically since it may be the last one for a while!

I don't buy the Sing-a-Longs as a rule (because I'm a DVD snob), but I'm really looking forward to Range. Sneak previews are fine by me....

Plus I have a strange fascination with karaoke at the moment....

Brother Bear brought back the characters singing a little bit since Koda sang for about 20 seconds
But anyway, I hope this movie will turn out allright...I kinda think it looks corny from the previews, but It may just be my opinion from an early look.
ALSO>>> I thought the PRINCESS SING A LONG SONG was going to come out early spring as well! I'm disapointed there's no info on that one.
