The 5 parts are out of order, BTW. It's supposed to go Intro - Main Street - Fantasyland - Frontierland - Tomorrowland.
To listen in order, here's what you do:
0:00 to 1:38 7:30 to end 3:36 to 5:27 1:40 to 3:33 5:28 to 7:29 |

I just have very little interest in seeing her in CGI. Too much like watching a Barbie movie.

I think that, in her original form, part of the charm and spunk comes from the fact that she communicates without speech. I have to agree with basil fan, though. If you're going to have a movie focused on the fairies, it will only work if everyone talks. |

And that there's a glaring animation error at 1:24, when the orange fairy's arm and hair go right through the pink fairy. This in the PROMO CLIP. Imagine what the rest of the thing is like.
The Pixar revolution is looking mighty shaky ... |

| christiemarsh88 Mon 6/2/2008 8:54a | I'm not much for "modernization" of classic characters, but this particular instance doesn't really bother me. The animation looks to be fairly well done for a DTV project, and Tinkerbell still seems to retained most of her original spunk, rather than be watered down to be more kid-friendly. I can't imagine seeing it, but I know that lots of little kids will really love it. |

| christiemarsh88 Mon 6/2/2008 9:04a | oh, wow, mawnck. I didn't see that far into the clip, so I didn't see that before you mentioned it. That's pretty funny. Maybe fairies can move through walls and other solid objects (including other fairies). They are magical beings after all ;) |
