Disney nerds... rejoice!

I can't believe I completely overlooked that, along with the other great trailers this week, Disney released a trailer for its traditionally-animated Winnie The Pooh theatrical film slated for 2011. This looks like a promising move on the heels of last year's The Princess And The Frog that the big D may be planning to release one-off hand-drawn films between its CGI blockbusters. After years of their direct-to-DVD sequel bullshit that began with Aladdin 2 (which I have completely ignored and do not personally consider to be canon) they are actually brining an existing property back to the big-screen in big-budget, theatrical 2D. I have a feeling the box office potential for something like this could merit future 2D theatrical sequels to classic Disney properties. Imagine a theatrical sequel to The Lion King or The Little Mermaid. I'd personally love to see a modern theatrical sequel to The Sword In The Stone.
