With just one night before Tangled opens in theaters everywhere, Walt Disney Animation Studios has released one last attempt at going viral with a promotional video. This time it’s …
POLICE PURSUIT
Yes, that was a bad O.J. Simpson joke. I can see why they waited until the last minute to release this one. I’m surprised there wasn’t a Dreamworks logo at the end of this… but not even them would release something so cheesy.
To make up for that really bad video, here’s one that’s actually cute and well done below the jump:
The wonderful website Den of Geek scored an interview with Disney Animator Glen Keane.

In the recent thread on Disney parks merchandise someone noted that it’s been years since Disney has done a feature film starring Mickey Mouse. So it’s no wonder that today’s youth is not acquainted with him. I think they’re forgetting Mickey Clubhouse on Disney Channel. Which was a good attempt to re-introduce Mickey. But it still hasn’t show cased him as the big star that we know he is.
The same thing can be said for Winnie The Pooh. He had a Disney Channel Show, which was really a mis-guided attempt to remake the lovable bear by excluding his best friend. But now Disney is bringing back Christopher Robin, and Pooh’s other forest friends, for a feature length movie.
The “Winnie the Pooh” movie features hand-drawn 2D animation. It appears to be very true to the original character designs if these frames from the movie are accurate. One of the best pieces of news is that the score and songs for the film are being written by Bobby and Kristen Lopez, who turned Pixar’s “Finding Nemo” into a stage musical (which I love!). “Winnie the Pooh” hits theaters July 15, 2011.
Walt Disney Animation Studios is making available a streaming version of one song from their upcoming film “Tangled.” “I See The Light” is written by Alan Menken and Glenn Slater and performed by Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi. “Light” appears to be the ballad duet… Read More »Disney releases song, “I See The Light” from “Tangled”
Meet Sampson At first glance the white horse in Tangled looks like the same white horse that Disney animation puts into every Princess film. He’s the comic relief, the sidekick, the trusty steed. It’s so cliche that Shrek spoofed the idea by putting Donkey in… Read More »Tangled – Introducing “Maximus” the horse
