    I don't know, it took like 10 min to download on my 3 Mbit connection. (I can usually start playing trailers that big as soon as they start downloading)

    Isn't this the film that's rumored to debut the trailer for Star Wars ROTS?

    ... Shark's Tale crashes and burns, and the Incredibles triumphs in their wake. With the exception of Shrek, Dreamworks has been playing copy cat to Pixar. Pixar develops a Bugs Life, and -- what a coincidence -- Dreamworks releases Antz a few months before Pixar. Pixar develops Finding Nemo, and Dreamworks comes out with a Shark's Tale.

    They did so well with their only original idea -- Shrek. Given how lame ST looks in previews, I hope it spanks them into forced creativity.

    I don't know about anyone else, but I'm over 21, and I'm certainly going to see the SpongeBob movie.

    If I ever get too old for quality absurdist children's entertainment, then well...

    Ah, I don't know what, but it isn't going to happen.

    Why would Pixar want to team up with Disney again? It's much more profitable for them to finally go on their own...

    Yes, there was a trailer available months ago, but it was more of a teaser. It introduced the characters, but that's about it. This one actually gives an idea of what the plot is about, and it has maybe 75% new scenes compared to the last one. And it makes me even more impatient to see the movie now, because it looks, well, even more incredible!

    Did you actually view the trailer that the article linked to, or did you jump to conclusions?

    Is this news for nerds now? New movie trailers?

    New CGI superhero sci-fi movie trailers.
    Lets see, its new, so its news, and its CGI superhero sci-fi stuff, so its for nerds.

    Yup, meets the criteria of "news" "for nerds".

    Now go to the settings page and make some kind of arrangement that leads to you not having to see movie news on the front page and us not having to see your post complaining about them. Everyone wins.

    I saw a lot of folks mentioning that they could care less about this sort of thing. I agree, but to clear up some confusion...

    The trailer appears to NOT be available either on QuickTime or the movie website. There is a not-yet-activated third trailer link in the Flash animation on the movie website. I believe that the links provided earlier are that trailer.

    Honestly, the movie looks rather funny. I remember watching a documentary about how Pixar tackles CGI challenges in each of its movies. In Nemo, it was the realism of the water. Making it look like seawater with plankton and dirt and silt and stuff. Making water look realistic on the fish scales. Stuff like that. Monsters Inc. was all about getting the fur on the blue monster to look like...well...real fur.

    They mentioned, in the documentary, that the next film (I would assume that The Incredibles is the one in question) would deal with animating people and more realistic human environments. From what I can see, the characters are cartoony, but they do have much more expressiveness and character than the human characters from movies like Toy Story and Monsters Inc.

    Oddly enough, if you think about it, that CGI-based Final Fantasy movie from a few years ago seemed to really capture some human-like realism, and Lucas has done it a little with his prequels. The comment from the documentary made me wonder what Pixar was really getting at with their technology development goals.
