Following on from my comments about Disney the other day, I was reminiscing about how my favourite character from "Beauty and the Beast" was Gaston, the egotistical villain.
Not really sure what that says about me.

They don't make em like they used to
The problem with Tangled is that Disney is clearly trying to create a hybrid of a film, utilising the computer animations that were made famous from their collaborations with Pixar, whilst trying to recapture the classic storytelling of nineties films such as Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast.
Unfortunately it only does a mediocre job of both. From a storytelling point of view it's not even in the same league as the nineties classics, sorely missing out on having a comedy villain like Gaston or Iago. From an animation point of view it's technologically fine, but lacks the pazazz of Toy Story or The Incredibles.
All in all, fine but nothing great.
Oh, and no talking animals. Sad times.
