get tangled
here's your first look at disney's tangled. originally called rapunzel, the film's name was changed after last year's the princess and the frog failed to attract boys to theaters. tangled is said to be a reworking of the classic fairy tale about the girl with long, long, long, long, longggg hair trapped in a tower. as fat as i know, this is disney's first ever cgi-animated musical. the cast includes mandy moore as rapunzel and zachary levi (tv's chuck) as flynn, the guy who is followed in the above teaser trailer. i can't tell if the story will in fact follow flynn more-so than rapunzel, or if that's just a marketing strategy. the latter is my guess. hopefully tangled will bring disney back into the "classic" animation - the look of the cgi was created to mimic hand animation - and musical - the guys behind the little mermaid and beauty and the beast - game.
