12	C1trus Tue 5/6/2008 7:17p	My daughter is in now in the first grade, we first saw the movie poster while she was in k-4 advertised in the library (now safely rolled up in storage collecting dust. We have been anticipating this movie for a long time. We have not heard why production has been stopped over the past several long years... If you have noticed, disney changed the packaging of the fairy dolls and slightly changed the look. My daughter, having the "first release"... I can tell you as a parent, disney cornered the market on the merchandising and prolonging the movie. The movie will most likely flop as the release date before October was March 2008. I wonder why Disney is so skiddish? Is because of how they animated Tinkerbell? she does not look like the traditional Tink we all grew up with. Did you notice that in the create your own fairy section of the disney fairies website, new are released after you create your own unique fairy. Disney really needs to get it together. I just thought I would let it all out... I have had my movie on reserves with a local movie vendor and every so often, my movie arrival date is pushed back... I very tired... Disney just get off their fairy dust and release the pixie movie! Signed: Worn out soccer mom....

What is taking Disney so long to release the movie? Has any one noticed that the merchandising changes frequently? there was a first round of fairies released about year ago, we wanted to add to the doll collection and noticed that the faces had changed slightly. Why so many identity crises with the products... these are kids, whom will like the doll on the toys on the first run... is disney afraid that because they changes the look of Tink to be more computerized than the original airing? Kids don't know anything about marketing and what a remake is... I say release the movie... the suspense is intruiging.

Apparently the first version was so awful that Lasseter insisted they start over, even though the first version's trailer had already gone out on some DVD releases. They haven't just changed the look slightly. They've canned the first set of pixies and replaced them with completely different ones. Nothing wrong with letting a movie simmer until it's ready, especially if you intend to base a potential billion-dollar franchise on it. Several of Disney's recent theatrical features could have stayed in the oven a bit longer if you ask me. Tink, by the way, has changed appearances several times over the years, not to mention having more disturbingly off-model "official" art than just about any other Disney character (with the possible exception of Mickey himself). For example, look at her in Peter Pan, then look at her at the beginning of the Disneyland TV show. Two totally different Tinks.

Or just a feature, whenever it's ready. Anybody know? BTW, I agree, Parks-Tink looks so different from Movie-Tink. Guilty! Disney Villains http://www.whatsitsgalore.com/...ain.html
