Here's also a POSSIBLE Stanton project, or Pixar, or Disney: ??????? :shock:

"Princess of Mars". It sounds familiar because Disney was going to get the rights in the Katzenberg era and it fell through for some reason:

Here's the Variety story on this;

Not to belittle WDFA or Disney, but it seems like NO ONE there knows exactly what kind of films they want to make--they're like, all over the place! :?

Or maybe there's conflicting opinions? I'd wager the latter.... :roll:
You can’t just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!

No problem! I'm glad you guys liked the picture. :D

Kaszubas - I must also admit that I liked their old look just a tad bit more, especially Emile's. They looked more like scrawny, sewer rats in the teaser, and in this new picture they resemble house rats more. They're both cute, but I still favor Remy's and his brother's older look.

Oh, and yeah...I figured as much. I know that the animators aren't the only ones in charge of design -- I only mentioned just them because they create the eventual result. Sorry I didn't explain myself correctly. ;)

JV - Cool! I saw you post this up on Pixar Planet. You should post up that other link that lists a bunch of Ratatouille books, as well. Thanks for the information, in any case. :mrgreen:

Isn't it a little soon for Pixar to be doing another space-/technology-related film right after WALL-E? Or maybe it's just me? :?

Who said it Pixar was doing it? I clearly remember reading that they wanted to do it live-action. :wink:

Upcoming Pixar is pointing at nice test animation of Emille :) There are also some very beautifully sculpted clay maquetes of some of main characters :)

Meg, I had the same problem at first. At the time, I could only get a few of the options to work for me.

However, I tried the site again a couple of minutes ago. Oddly enough, all four options worked this time. Hence, you might want to try the site again.

After a few tries, I got the animation to work for me, but it was so dark I could hardly see anything. However I got it to work for me after I put it in theater mode.
