    At some point, an animation studio outside of Pixar will discover that appealing character design is actually kind of important. Closest that's come so far is Kung Fu Panda.

    First of all, I will state like I always have with anyone that I hate when studios market a CGI film by naming each and every voice actor. Who cares if Steve Carell is a voice. So is Miranda Cosgrove, and she's on a crappy Nickelodeon show. The names of the voice actors don't matter in the long run because voice work is much easier than actual acting. Heck, you can do voice work wearing nothing but pajamas if you wanted! The studios only list all the voice actors' names because they know that they may not have a good film in their hands. Does Pixar ever flaunt their voice actors in teaser trailers? They did at first, but now... who cares if the legendary Peter O'Toole is a voice. Everyone knows Pixar is synonymous with quality. If the studio knew this film would be absolutely great, they wouldn't have to rely on the names of those doing voices.

    That being said, let me speak about the trailer itself. It looks like it'll be filled with a ton of references, as seen from the Alfred Hitchcock one in the teaser. I didn't like Ice Age, I didn't like Horton Hears a Who, I won't like this movie!

    Oh, right.
    As if you've ever voice acted.
  • Matt_Bacon · 5 months ago
    ever read an interview about someone who has voice acted? I'm guessing, no.

    Gee, I love all the "despicable" stereotypes of mean old Americans - fat, boorish and pushy. For some, totally true. But this will surely be seen by an international audience, and I find it pathetic and (dare I say it) a bit racist. Will Jews be given big noses (I may be stepping on the plot, since I don't know the nationality of the lead character.)
  • scotty · 5 months ago
    I'm thinking they would. Give the other stereotypes in the trailer besides Americans. As long is it has a fair crack at everyone then whats the problem?

    As British I fully expect bowler hats and bad teeth and as Scottish I fully expect ginger hair, kilts and a potty mouth !

    Good times!

    Not all that impressed with this trailer at all. Most animated films at least get a laugh out of me during the trailer, this one sadly did not.

    The premise is great, the art is eye destroyingly bad.

    I won't see it. The plot basically tells you what will happen. He will be a guy who was never loved. Probably abandon by his parents (is it odd how he looks like The Penguin from Batman and will probably have all the same traits) and never felt love. Then theses three probably annoying girl will teach him what its like to love. And though out the movie will have typical humor like the girls dressing him up, breaking his stuff and making him do typical girl things they would normally do with a mother type.

    I don't like the trailer. It's not funny, the animation seems awkward and the plot is thin (for now).
  • concerneddontb · 4 months ago
    He has a point for now it looks suckish beacause we've only seen 20 min. and 30 sec. (not meaning to be rude)

    The "Sweet Home Alabama" opening music did not match, was a patronizing attempt at reaching the general audience, and totally ruined any interest.
  • Martin · 5 months ago
    I totally agree,that song is so extremely overused. The editor or the director of the trailer just seems lazy.

    A 2½ minute long teaser without any key characters from the movie itself and just the plot, (barely)? Not one laugh. BIG YAWN!
  • rockinrors · 5 months ago
    Could be awesome, if not for the dammned 3 girls...
  • Bubbles! · 4 months ago
    i think this movie will be very interesting. I despise the trailer (especially since it makes a small slight at Alabamians - we do NOT arrive in rusty buses, we do NOT have terrifying tan lines, we do NOT wear ridiculous cowboy hats, and we MOST definitely DO NOT have the kinds of cellulite problems that blonde mother has!

    When I first saw that sillhouette I thought this movie was going to be about the Penguin. Damn you, false advertising, damn you to hell!

    The character designs are fresh and impressive! It's hard to judge the whole movie by the trailer - for now it has caught my attention and I'd definitely look forward to more.

    Thank You very much SGI. I saw the trailers of movie only but as you are saying we can't judge whole movie by trailers only so i will surely go for this movie. :-)

    The first trailer (this one) isn't that great. But I personally love the second. I get a kick out of it every time. Search for the second one!!
