    Yogi Bear Movie - Teaser Trailer

    I agree. He doesn't really fit for that role. I actually think that a theatrical Yogi Bear movie could have worked as a hand-drawn animated film in the same vein as the original cartoons and TV specials. The whole idea of putting classic cartoon characters in a CGI/live-action movie is getting...

    Exactly, all reality shows follow a "script" to guide things.

    Yogi Bear Movie - Teaser Trailer

    Very true. There was absolutely NO REASON to have big names voice the chipmunks. But getting back to Zurg for a second; You do have a point there, it could be seen an an in-joke. Though I also have a theory that perhaps Wayne Knight was originally slated to voice Zurg in Toy Story 2, but then...

    Yogi Bear Movie - Teaser Trailer

    That's a good point. Still, I think it was an odd choice to have Wayne Knight voice a fairly one note character like Zurg.

    Yogi Bear Movie - Teaser Trailer

    Yes. but that's not what I'm saying... The voice of Zurg in Toy Story 2 was Pixar employee Andrew Stanton, I never expected him to to voice the character on the cartoon show, but there's really no point having a comedian like Wayne Knight voice a character like Zurg. They could have gotten...

    Yogi Bear Movie - Teaser Trailer

    Exactly! Its was really pointless. Just like how Wayne Knight was the voice of Emperor Zurg on the Buzz Lightyear of Star Command TV show.

    Worst commercial on TV today?

    There are a lot of bad commercials out there. Usually when I am watching TV and there is a commercial break, I just mute the TV.

    I have to say without being specific, most reality shows are overrated.

    Overrated Movies

    I don't suppose you have a better reason for not liking the film? Or perhaps you would be good enough to explain WHY you find it "extremely creepy and disturbing"? You know what? Never mind. Forget I said anything. I'm staying out of this. I'm sick and tired of people hating on Cars. In the...

    Disney Takes Muppet Script Through Pixar

    I know exactly what you mean. I hate it too. So with that in mind, it doesn't hurt to mention it again; THE NEW MUPPET MOVIE WILL NOT BE CGI. GET OVER IT I'm sorry to act so harsh but really guys, this is getting ridiculous. STOP mentioning it. :rolleyes: (THE NEW MUPPET MOVIE WILL NOT BE CGI.)

    Yogi Bear Movie - Teaser Trailer

    This doesn't look terribly interesting to me. But at least the nailed the look of the characters and the voices sound pretty good.

    To be frank, I really don't think that this thread will turn out well, and its way too negative for my taste. Embracing negativity (especially on the web) is usually not a good idea Some people are bound to get rubbed the wrong way here...

    Mickey talking to guests at Disneyland

    Yes, it does count. :) All of those experiences are part of Disney's "living character" initiative. And I still believe that they are working on a new Muppet Interactive experience, as they mentioned at D23. JUst becuase we haven't heard anything since then, doesn't mean that its not going to...

    Mickey talking to guests at Disneyland

    Because of the big Internet buzz that this made, Disney released an official video. The video description includes a brief statement from an Imagineer; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5wC-dBx7-Y And Drtooth; Yeah, the Toy Story ride is in California as well, and Mr. Potato Head has dropped his...

    Disney Takes Muppet Script Through Pixar

    Oh, I know all about the plot that Disney had in mind for Toy Story 3 without Pixar's involvement. Yeah, it would have been bad. Pixar's vision for Toy Story 3 is so much better, and makes more sense. It was the only logical way to go after Toy Story 2. It would not have been right to have the...

    Mickey talking to guests at Disneyland

    This news has been out there for while, but in case some people haven't heard about this or seen these videos yet, let me set the stage. Back in May of this year, Disneyland tested a new character experience. For a few days, Mickey at his house in Toontown could actually talk to people and...

    Disney Takes Muppet Script Through Pixar

    As I recall, the first teaser trailer for Toy Story 3 was shown when Up was released in theaters. (May 29, 2009) I mean, teaser trailers don't necessarily show footage from the actual film. The could just whip up something brief to get the word out.
