Wow…why have we never seen *those* shows as extras on their respective DVD movies!? And, rights aside, now something else that should/could be on Disney "plus"… ;)

Rumor has it a new trailer will drop during the Super Bowl. It will probably be the one that was leaked a few weeks ago. It can easily be found online. Quality isn't the best, reminds me of Spidey's, and is filled with watermarks. Couple of key scenes and a little footage of Ursula. I'm not totally sold yet.

Far more likely they use the Big Game to market Marvel and Indy.

They are going to market everything. It was confirmed by Deadline:

New-ish teaser:



Everything looks so artificial and garish. The brief shot of "Kiss the Girl" especially look so muted and grey.

That's always the moment that makes me say why? It's so unnecessary. And I don't know why she was directed to sing it like that. It makes me worried about the songs - although at least it appears live action Ariel doesn't need a tonne load of autotune to hold a note like live action Belle

Yes, at least she’s a singer. Which may or may not be a good thing! ;)

Yes, it's a good thing. I'd rather have it over-sung than badly sung.

I've heard the full audio of Halle's "Part of Your World" and her eight-note "be" makes perfect sense when you hear the whole thing.

Can’t they sometimes be the same thing!? ;)
