[quote]As we reported last July, Disney is planning a Cars direct-to-DVD spinoff called Planes. Pixar won’t be involved in the spin-off and the film will be handled by DisneyToon Studios, whose previous movies include The Lion King 1 ½ and Bambi II. Disney has now officially announced Planes and provided an official synposis:
PLANES takes off with an international cast of the fastest air racers around, in a comedy packed with action and adventure starring Dusty, a small town dreamer who longs to enter the most epic around-the-world air race … despite his fear of heights. With the help and support of a fleet of new and hilarious characters, Dusty wings his way into the biggest challenge of his life.
Hit the jump for comment on the project by Disney/Pixar Chief Creative Officer and Cars director John Lasseter. Planes is set to be released on DVD and Blu-ray in spring 2013.
Here’s what Lasseter had to say about Planes:
“We had such a great time exploring the world of ‘Cars’ over the course of two films, so it seemed only natural for us to see where our imaginations would take us in a film where planes were the main characters. By expanding the Cars world, ‘Planes’ gave us a whole new set of fun-filled situations and a great opportunity to introduce some fantastic new characters. The team at DisneyToon Studios has done such an amazing job creating a heartfelt story filled with great comedy, adventure, and emotion. I know audiences are going to love taking off into the wild blue yonder with these daredevil characters, as they experience a whole new kind of animated adventure.”[/quote]

THIS IS NOT PIXAR, but another disney studio. Kind of makes me worry, I doubt it'd be anywhere near pixar quality and it's sounding like it's shaping up to be a crap kid flick.
The general idea sounds pretty sweet though.
Meh, I'll have to wait and see it until I can judge it.

Got somewhat interested until I saw it was direct to DVD.
Unfortunate, since a movie about talking planes could'v- no never mind this is all shit.

The Lion King 1 ½ was great. Probably because it focused around the two best characters.
No clue about Bambi II though.
Not a big fan of Cars though and this doesn't look any better.
This is plane silly.

Those Moving Chairs On the Staircase For Fat People

I hope that my little brother never hears about this. EVER.
He has already tormented me with cars. No more please.

I'm still waiting for a movie about Rolling Office Chairs
meh it's direct to dvd who cares
[editline]18th February 2011[/editline]
and it's not like they're twisting Pixar's arm to do it, so Pixar can have more free time to keep working on 3 projects at once (something like that anyhow)
[editline]18th February 2011[/editline]
even if one of those projects [I]is[/I] Cars 2
There better be some Russian MiGs in there.

I liked it.
There were better pixar movies sure but it was funny. Maybe it's just because I was always around my car-nut dad as a kid.
For some reason Cars bothered me that they didn't use the headlights for eyes.
Maybe they were woried about Chevron suing them.

Hey, Bambi II was one of the best sequels that Disney ever produced during that time. Same for the Lion King 1½.
Wait, Bambi II was a mid-quel, my bad.

Or they didn't want all the cars to have downs syndrome.

Cars was, by far, the worst movie Pixar has ever released. It's still fun to watch though. 'Course my opinion is not yours

And Cars is still a much better movie compared to many animated films that come out now.
That says something.
Imagine Planes, in WW1 storyline.
The Red Baron's Focker's best friend is shot down, and his story in vengeance made for kids!
[QUOTE=Joazzz;28135590]Tanks.

Same. That would be pretty good.
As long as it isnt 100% kid friendly, id watch a movie about talking tanks.
Didn't like Cars, and that's a Pixar movie.
This isn't a Pixar movie and it's based on the same concept so this is going to be absolutely terrible.

Direct to DVD Disney movies are mostly shit.
