Sabrblade wrote:And then there's the notion that this movie insinuates that Toons do age over time, growing from childhood to adulthood, rather than always staying the same. And yet, there's very little consistency with that, since a bunch of the cameos are of older Toons from way back when who look to have not aged at all in the present day. One particular Toon who did grow up into an adult briefly shares a scene with another Toon that he used to work with, but said other Toon was still a child who never aged at all. That was a bit odd.

I was even screaming with glee at some of the names in the end credits. I'm a little sad that Monterey Jack was voiced by Eric Bana instead of Jim Cummings (when Cummings did voice several other cameo characters in this movie)
Burton did voice Zipper's high-pitched chirps (and those of his children), so he did get a bit of a reprisal. Same for his doing Dale's chipmunk voice with Tress McNeille doing Chip's chipmunk voice for the brief moments they were heard. Monty was the only Rescue Ranger in this movie who didn't have any bits of his original voice at all.RotorstormNZ wrote:I was even screaming with glee at some of the names in the end credits.

Not only that, but Zipper - originally Corey Burton - was played by Dennis Haysbert. Like I said to my wife: "Is Dennis Haysbert that much of a box-office draw that they had to recast?". I get having the Australian character voiced by an Australian but when Jim Cummings is already there....

Evil Eye wrote:The more I hear about this movie the more I despise it. Even aside from the fact that the whole goal of the film seems to be making a quick buck from "I CLAPPED I GOT THE REFERENCE" types, the fact that the plot is based on the mistreatment of Peter Pan's actual voice actor (who committed suicide at 32) by Disney, and has this reflected by having a similarly mistreated Peter Pan as a villain who ends up turned into a monster and stuck in a maximum security prison at the end is disgusting. Like "If you're angry about what a Hollywood megacorp has done to you, you're evil and need to be locked up" is a really, really horrible moral to teach.
Disney and the "Disney Adults" who keep them financed have a very special place in hell reserved for them.
