Wasn't there already a thread on this when the teaser scene leaked on YouTube? Yes, it's direct-to-DVD, but sadly, it doesn't not appear to be any better than tribute-ish 2. It's a prequel (like Lion King 1 1/2, only you're sticking to the main character and her backstory). The animation seems to be up to snuff (it's the same as the sequel, if that's saying anything), and the plot is... I'm tempted to say a stretch and totally predictable at the same time. it's not necessarily bad (I mean, even I could think up a coherent story with it), but there's just a lot of ways to royally screw it up, and with their rep for them, I'm not setting my hopes high. TLM is the most revered of the Disney films for me, and as a fan, I'm looking at this going, in the words of Tony DiNozzo "Trainwreck... I wanna look away but I can't."
