Actually no. I'm not interested in this movie really. I'm with Avarice. New Orleans doesn't do it for me. So they can ruin it if they want. So I hope Rapunzel is the one they don't ruin with doofy songs...
Sorry to disappoint you, but yes, it's going to be a musical like the classics. I can't wait!

What really pisses me off about this movie, though, is all the crap Disney is getting for it. She stared out as a chamber maid named Maddy, but Disney was forced to change it because people bitched that apparently that job and name aren't good enough for a black person! Fine for all the white princesses (and one Chinese) that had that same posi<b></b>tion though. Some are bitching that her butt's too big, or her lips are too big. I thought those were good things?! I know I like 'em.

Just pisses me off that we finally get a black princess but you can't read or watch anything about this movie without someone popping up and complaining that it's racist.

Other than that I'm excited though. I hope they start cranking out 2-Ds again.
I agree, especially since, I like Maddy. MADDY IS A CUTE NAME! And it would of been perfectly befitting, since it takes place in the 1920s French Quarter (Maddy = Madiline). Even still, despite all the butthurt ultra PC stupidity, I still has mah high hopes. And YAY for Disney FINALLY having a black princess (or hell, a black protagonist period).

Despite everything, I'm still looking forward to this far more than any film in years.
