Appeal
If you were ever wondering what the definition of appeal is, especially in character design and animation, Tangled is the answer… I saw the film this weekend at Pixar and have to say it is one the best Disney films in many years. I can see Glen Keane’s influence all over the film. I also saw alot of a former Pixar colleague, John Kahrs, influence. Mostly in the way the characters acted. There was alot of restraint in the acting which is refreshing. Some of the more comedic bits also felt physical and had weight. Hats off to all the amazing artists at Disney for such a great job on the film! It is so nice to see a film of that quality. I was blown away by the quality of the rigging, animation lighting etc. My daughter did not make a peep during the whole film… Dont’ miss it… Disney is back… We missed you…

This makes me happy
It’s great to hear that the acting and story is as good as the animation. I remember seeing the first little snippet of animation having to pick my jaw up off the floor. They get such great shape changes in these models! They have a kind of flexibility that I can’t remember seeing in a CG movie before. It really looks like a super-realistic drawing rather than a CG puppet.
Hat’s off to the crew at Disney! Can’t wait to see it!
Slade Adams
Thanks for that extra push. I was intrested before, but not enough to get to a theater with a wad full of dough to give up. (plus it can get messy handing that out to people) Now I am going to see it for sure!
Jonathan Higareda
well I have to admit that the first teasers didnt get me too excited, but the more I keep seeing about the animation, and hearing about the story, the more Im getting interested.
I hope you are right and that Disney is back.
Bramhaa Animation
Yeah, hoping to see the classical animation like freedom in animation in 3D from Tangled.
And I am sure Disney is’ back with the bang.’

Hey Andrew it´s really good to hear those words! Disney Animation was the one that made me chose animation as a career and as one of the most important thing in my life. From a long time I wish to see Disney animation, strongly, back to the road again! I didn’t watch the film yet, here in Brazil it will be on screen only an January, but I already could see all this quality that you said in the promos! I´m even more anxious to see it! Bests!

Waiting to see it in this side of the world.

I dig her sidekick chameleon, just made me laugh seein the pic, the whole movie looks dreamy and unreal.

I was fortunate enough to attend a talk Glen Keane gave last week in Melbourne, Australia. It was really amazing to hear him talk about Tangled and to see some of his work on the film. I’m really looking forward to seeing the film when it comes out here in January.

A-
Can’t thank you enough to thank you for the note you put here. I read it aloud to the animation crew yesterday. I got a slew of nice messages from Pixar folks (a tough crowd) after this screening. We’re getting acquainted with the intense inspection the goes along with the release of anything from Disney. Some of these reviews and comments you run across . . . I don’t know, folks seem to be awfully caught up with history and preconceptions of what we’re doing, so when you hear appreciation of the film simply on its own terms, it’s a relief.
It’s heartening to hear such great support from your peers. Thanks again.

Hey Andrew,
I was able to attend the CTN this year and on the closing night, we were treated to a screening of Tangled at the old Disney theater. I don’t know any better place to have viewed it. It was quite the experience.
Appeal is a plenty in this film!. I want to watch it again just to see the mouth shapes and hands specifically Rapunzels.
Great work Disney crew. Hats off.

I just wanna say this movie its amazing ! so beautiful ! Im watching trailers constanlty, Im analyzing character animation frame by frame. I love it ! Cant wait to watch it in my country, cant wait for artbook, figures, blue ray ! I like Glen style and I wanna animate a Tarzan soon
. Here you can find some Glen sketches http://theartofglenkeane.blogspot.com/ Awesome job ! Congratz !

It’s a lovely film! I particularly loved Maximus and Pascal a lot. The movie keeps the charm of a pencil drawing, and adds the intricate details of 3d. Disney villains have always been such fun to observe animation-wise; Mother Gothel also has a vivid range of acting!
Scott
Excellent film. Great job by Art Director David Goetz pulling all those designs together into a beautiful, cohesive whole. The animation is fantastic, but it’s the story that genuinely surprised me most. Sincere, non-cynical, and FUN FUN FUN! And for all it’s fantasy, it makes a whole lot more sense than the entire harry potter movie series.

I had to miss the screening at the Disney Studio last Sunday
but I plan on seeing this VERY soon! I think your title will sum this film up best… Appeal!
Patrick Semple
Thats awesome, been trying to keep away from all the stuff about this film just so its still a surprize when i see it but yeah it, really looks like its well made from what i’ve seen.
Jeremy Jutras
I can’t wait to see this. I’m more excited then ever now. I simply love Disney and their 2d, 3d, 2d, 3d pattern that seems to be taking shape!!
Jesse Nelson
I saw it and want to go again! Not only was the animation outstanding, but I was blown away by the moods and lighting on so many scenes! Great great job to all the people who worked on it.

When I saw “Glen Keane” and “John Kahrs” name on the credit list of Animation Supervisor, I said “YES!” because it’s the first time that I feel fantastic physicality on the Disney’s 3D Characters. JK is one of the best physics kings in Pixar(& Doug, Carlos, Rodrigo …long list) It’s always a pleasure to see Disney’s body have new Pixar blood, it make the work fresh, and still very “Disney”. Great work, Congratulations to All Disney Crew.

I just came back from a second screening. That movie is unbelievable. Some of the walk cycles were a bit stiff but other than that everything was done perfectly.
As a buddying painter I found the lighting amazing and I was surprised to see some reflected light in places people would normally not think about. The character design wasn’t revolutionary but when animated it had so much appeal and the faces were sooo fleshy.
I loved the use of the squash and stretch and it reminded me of old Disney movies.
The humour especially in the Snuggly Duckling sequence was great.
And to finish, the acting felt so truthful, I was really worried it would fall apart before the end of the movie but no, even if I have never been Rapunzel I could definitely emphatise with what she was going through
Herman G.
Just seen it.. Solid Everything…Wow. It took me to a new place, that i had no idea where, but i just went and wanted to go there feeling. So inspired!
Larry V.
I saw it Thanksgiving weekend and it was a really really fun & entertaining movie. Super quality in many aspects. The visuals and color were beautiful, and the animation was a lot of fun. I have two boys and two girls, and it was a great balance with the action and song/dance. Way to go Disney.

As mentioned earlier, it’s usually a good idea to keep your porcelain collectibles or china stored behind glass, this way you won’t have to dust them as often and handling them less will reduce the potential of chips or breaks on the
actual figurine. The Swing Along Castle is manufactured as an outdoor play set, yet
kids can still enjoy it in the comfort of their own homes.
