I feel like this should go in the WTF thread...

WTF indeed.

But kids don't like new... kids like familiar... things they understand. Odd.

Wow, I detect trouble ahead. A lack of confidence on that level just can't mean anything good.

By itself, Tangled makes me think more of a live action tween comedy, or maybe a lightweight "chick flick" about a girl who works in a hair salon. It most certainly doesn't sound like a manly movie title, at all.

I have to admit, the very idea that they are trying to reach across the aisle makes me want to see the film more.

I don't have much interest in more strong, spunky young princesses who are beautiful on the inside blah blah blah. As that link points out, Pixar has had nothing but success with their entirely non-girly films.

Changing the title doesn't mean much, though.

I am a complete fan of Disney's retooled Kingdom of the Sun aka The Emperor's New Groove. So, who knows?But...

There's a story in The Los Angeles Times about how Disney is renaming its version of Rapunzel -- and retooling the story, too, to focus on a young man named "Flynn Rider."

Flynn Rider?

As opposed to parts of your body, evidently......

At least the trailer didn't mention the name of the movie yet. Perhaps there's time to change it.
