Disney's new movie coming out tomorrow November 22 (23?). Staring Auli'i Cravalho and Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.
"An adventurous teenager sails out on a daring mission to save her people. During her journey, Moana meets the once-mighty demigod Maui, who guides her in her quest to become a master way-finder. Together they sail across the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous monsters and impossible odds. Along the way, Moana fulfills the ancient quest of her ancestors and discovers the one thing she always sought: her own identity."


Is anyone going to see it? I'm probably going to. What do you guys think of it?

Found it. 

For some reason, this didn't pique my interest.

This is going to sound horrible.... I am not fond of the character designs. 

And when I saw Moana, all I think of is MOANING.  MOAN-UUHHHH.

I will probably see it when it is rentable.

Water, earth, fire. Long ago, the three seasons lived together in harmony. Then everything changed, when the Shyamalan attacked.....

I think it looks fun and all, but I probably won't see it unless I go with someone who wants to see it.

A lot of people don't seem to be interested in this movie. Even among my friends. I feel they didn't advertise much for this movie. But it's apparently good. Early access critiques and stuff seem to really like it. I'm excited to see how they do the Hawaiian stuff. It would be cool.

Reminds me of Lilo & Stitch.  I alway liked Lilo's older sister as a kid. :)  Uhhh.... she was cool, okay.

This is old school Hawaii, with all their cool legends and gods. Lilo and Stitch was awesome. Loved their designs and the story. But yeah, I'm looking forward to this :)

Her sister was a "cool character."  Yep.  :)  Not because of how she looked, it was because she was cool.  Honest.  *Fingers crossed.*

I hope it does well, and it is cool is old world, Hawaii.  I wonder if Hawaiian's will be upset if they butcher their past and traditions?

Disney does do their research, as does Pixar. I'm sure they tried to the best of their abilities. And they weren't insulted with Lilo and Stitch. And that had some Hawaiian stuff (obviously).

And lol APD.

It is visually appealing, I will give it that.  But it didn't garner much interest with me or anyone I know.  I have been trying to figure out why.  The tv ads don't explain what the story is about, and that might be a reason.

And just not much ads in general.

I don't feel Disney has a lot of faith in the film, hence the poor advertising.  Companies for some reason give up all hope on films when they feel they aren't good, and they don't even try to salvage them.  That is the impression I am getting from Disney. 

It should be the opposite.  They are currently on a high from Zootopia, and you think they would market that with it, but this film isn't made by the Zootopia writers... it is the Big Hero 6 crowd, which had a lot of advertising, but didn't do well.  So I feel Disney cut back their advertising with this group.
