Obviously this is an early version of the song/video. They changed the animation and (judging by Flounder's role here compared to the movie) story a bit for the actual movie.
Also, I've also heard Athena originally had a bigger role and (a much younger) Usrula was supposed to be the villain, instead of Marina.
Compared to the other sequels, The Little Mermaid II wasn't that bad... A little corny, but not terrible. This movie just killed it. Poor story, no explaining how Ursula came into the picture. Just all about music. Worst. Movie. Ever.
Does anyone else feel like their childhood is being sucker punched in the gut? Everytime they make a sequel or part 3 to the Disney movies I grew up with kind of makes me cry on the inside.
yup,I was scared at first,I was worrying about they ruin Ariel's image in the third movie...but after I've watched the real movie,I feel very happy! cos this scene never shown in the movie,don't worry,Ariel look beautiful in TLM3...just like the first,and the movie it self is fantastic...love it
i deff getting this movie...you get to know her sisters more because they have a game where u learn each one's name and see their room. plus this song is catchy lol i love it!!
I didnt know there was a Little Mermaid 3! I dont undersatnd, why did flounder say that this was a bad place? (the place where there was music?) I need to see the movee...
I just thought that this movie had too many characters(not that the mother was dead) so they decided to cut out the mother...
Ex: Sleeping Beauty ...but it's not always mothers.
Ex: In the Lion King 1 1/2, in the commentary: they were going to add Timon's father in the story but it would be too much of a hassle. They don't need TWO parents going after the son, one's enough)
and ya.. why did they BAN MUSIC? Is music part of the reason for the disapearance of the mother?
If the company manages to get through the sequels, and not make anymore, and thus, make newer films like they did back in the 90's, I'll be surprised. The CGI films that they make (Chicken Little), and the unoriginal ideas of making a series of every franchise is fucking irritating to the ass. I guess Walt must be spinning his head in heaven right now because of this. He dies to have the company make more of what was created? I guess so...
I seriously have to take PrettyKitty77's word for it. It's unoriginal, and wasteful, unthoughtful. Everybody knows that in the end, they're gonna love the original films more then the seconds.
This is fucking rediculous! Why. WHY must they continue with this sequel, prequel, and trequel crap?? Yeah, I know about the third Cinderella, but God forbid, they have to make yet another fucking third from another princess film. Shit like this is one of the reasons why I am absolutely disappointed in what the Disney company creates nowadays.
I'm just going to speak out my opinion now. I love Disney and all. I am not against it or anything, but this is taking it a little too far. I'm sorry, but I just don't think a 3rd movie to a princess movie is nesessary. If Disney is going to make part 3 movies to classics. They might as well make Aladdin 4 Jafar May Need Glasses. Sorry Guys. Look I'm sure it's cute, but I just can't see how it's going to be a great movie.
Hey, maybe if we´re lucky they might make a preprequal. About the time before Ariel was born, when Triton first met Ariels mother. Hmmm better erase this comment before Disney steals my idea, becouse I´m sure they would, becouse they can´t make up any new material of their own :P
I disliked that they made The little mermaid 2, so a 3rd. NOOOOOOOOOOOO, why can´t Disney make some new movies with new characters. Don´t make prequels and sequals of your best movies. I loved the original, but this....
Dude, I have to agree with you. Let me ask you and everyone else something. Now this movie is good for kids and everything, but do you think they're still going to watch it when they get older? I used to like the 2nd Little Mermaid, but now that I'm 19. I just stopped liking it. Dude Disney needs to go back to Traditional Animation and leave computer animation to Pixar, but that's just my opinion.
eXACTLY TIMES HAVE KINDA CHANGEDC IM NOT ENTIRLY SURE THAT MOST YOUNGERKIDS WOULD LIKE A LITTLE MERMAID 3 JUST THE OTHER DAY A BUNCH OF 4 YR OLDS TOLD ME THEY WERE TO OLD 4 BARBIES I PLAYED WITH BARBIES TILL I WAS 8 SO DID MY FRIENDS AND IM 11 NOW NEARLY 12 SO I DONT THINK IT WILL GO DOWN THAT WELL MAYBE?

omg! Its beetlejuice!!!!!! lol. I know that senora was a song that was around waaay before beetlejuice, but that was where i first heard it and it just makes me think of beetlejuice. lol. I can't wait till this comes out.
ohhhhhhh guys stop your nonsense comments her looks dont you notice they make ariels looks younger cant you see on the part 2 whe she has daughter they nake ariel little matured just watched the movie guys and anderstand it okkkkkkk ariel is stil ariel nothings changed...
they make ariel look younger here dear try to check the part 2 whe she has a daughter she looks matured there if your are going to create a story are you still going to make same face if you are in the movie when you are going to make a movie 16 years from now what do you look like do you still want to look like just what you are now that would be a abnormal effect..... lol you might be traveling in a time machine lol.....
How can you say this one sucks whjen you haven't even seen it? Don't judge just by what you see on the preview audience trailer.
I know the animation looks bad and Ariel looks awful, but it's also the storyline and the resolution that also make the film worthwhile, not just the animation. I liked the second Little Mermaid actually.
well, this is before the first one, so she is younger, so anyone is going to look different when they are younger, just like in the second one, she looked different because she was older, also im looking forward to this one. it may not be the best, obviously, but it will be interesting to see the prequel to the little mermaid
Will everyone stop complaining? This is supposed to be the very last sequel that Disney will make (John Lasseter was against them a lot and didn't want any more of them), so after this we will never see another of those Direct-To-Video sequels ever again! Not that I want to see this one cause I don't!
I agree I love the original movie so much, I used to watch it almost every day when i was little, and then the second movie was a disaster and this looks like its gonna suck aswell.
I heard the good news for those of you TLM buffs out there that on the official Disney site that "The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning" will be coming out on DVD August 26th, 2008. It was originally planned for a DVD release last year, because it was delayed due to some changes. I'm glad Disney made a great move and a good title change. Will see what happens on August 26th.
FRIG! They try to friggin hard to use "new improved" animation, when really it sucks man. They should have done it in the old way. Man Ariel doesnt look like herself. Im so pissed now...
they have made it like so cartoony ... its not even serious ! ... disney cartoons used to be serious story cartoons with ligt comerdy in not a kids cartoon. Look at Snow White or LM1 compared to just this trailer!
Omg YAY! The colour looks so much stronger again, not like TLM2 where it was weak and dull. I'm so glad it's a prequel and not more on Melody and like a 40yr old Ariel...0.o
Her look is weard and the animation is poor I son't think I will like it..... I don't like that disney makes continuation to lots of good movies and Little Mermaid from 1989 is my fav disney movie.
It's a prequel. Disney never learns......The 2nd movie just doesn't hold the same feeling that the 1st movie did so I don't expect this one too either. Will Disney ever stop butchering our childhoods? :\
wow the animation is horrible compared to the classic. Why hasn't Disney learned that their sequels are horrible yet, especially when the animation quality is gone? (ie: the Lion King II, Pocahontas II, and the Little Mermaid II) Lets just hope they don't ruin Finding Nemo as well! :(
They do thirds probably because they know they hadn't succeded with the second ones
Apart from Peter Pan 2 and Bambi 2 and Little Mermaid 2, none of the other sequels I have liked. They completely change them, and that counts as also ruined. It's because they want to try out new animation instead of sticking to classic animation. They think it would work, but it doesn't. Not to us.
ok...i dont really understand how Ariel can be a mermaid again. I mean....if thats the case the 2nd movie should have been the 3rd u know????? idk....i hope that their is a point to all of this. And i hope that every character from both movies are in this film!=)
I hate the way she looks in this one...seriously even though technology was not as advanced back then i like the way she looked in the 1st one better.Its more natural.We need more info about this movie...AND if its a prequel whats the deal with the locket? doesnt make sense.
I prefer her dark blue eyes....And it's weird that the third movie- she's still a fish, os like the second movie should have been the 3rd and the second the 3rd get it?? nah...
Her face looks different because she is younger. Not bright red lipstick and the first movie was made in 89. So, it probably not the same people doing the drawings.
I watched this trailer on a HD tv and Ariel's eyebrows were BROWN lol. Well they didn't look good. Also she does look realllly different. :/ I hate sequels.
At first when I heard of The Little mermaid 3, I was like "Why do we need to know about her childhood? It'll just get boring". But then I heard it's about Ariel's mother, which is pretty interesting.
I looked up what its supposed to be like and they said its about Ariels mom Athena. But im not sure. I have no idea what the whole club thing was about though!
Ariel looks terrible. It doesn't even look like her. Disney should have stopped after the flawless TV series because both movie sequels were so bad.

they have made it like so cartoony ... its not even serious ! ... disney cartoons used to be serious story cartoons with ligt comerdy in not a kids cartoon. Look at Snow White or LM1 compared to just this trailer!

it looks like Ariel has a crash on Sebastian XD
But no, really...
Her face looks er, so different o_O
it looks better the TLM2 but still...
I doubt if it can be as good as TLM1.

It's going to be so cool to learn about her past.
broadwaygal2008 4 years ago
Omg YAY! The colour looks so much stronger again, not like TLM2 where it was weak and dull. I'm so glad it's a prequel and not more on Melody and like a 40yr old Ariel...0.o

Her look is weard and the animation is poor I son't think I will like it..... I don't like that disney makes continuation to lots of good movies and Little Mermaid from 1989 is my fav disney movie.

It's supposed to be more of a prequel. Ariel explains her past or something, and it inculdes her long-dead mother.

It's a prequel. Disney never learns......The 2nd movie just doesn't hold the same feeling that the 1st movie did so I don't expect this one too either. Will Disney ever stop butchering our childhoods? :\
SailorDirector 4 years ago
wow the animation is horrible compared to the classic. Why hasn't Disney learned that their sequels are horrible yet, especially when the animation quality is gone? (ie: the Lion King II, Pocahontas II, and the Little Mermaid II) Lets just hope they don't ruin Finding Nemo as well! :(

They do thirds probably because they know they hadn't succeded with the second ones
Apart from Peter Pan 2 and Bambi 2 and Little Mermaid 2, none of the other sequels I have liked. They completely change them, and that counts as also ruined. It's because they want to try out new animation instead of sticking to classic animation. They think it would work, but it doesn't. Not to us.

i'm pretty sure its ment to be set either before she met eric or between the age she was during the 1st and 2nd movie

I hate the way she looks in this one...seriously even though technology was not as advanced back then i like the way she looked in the 1st one better.Its more natural.We need more info about this movie...AND if its a prequel whats the deal with the locket? doesnt make sense.

I prefer her dark blue eyes....And it's weird that the third movie- she's still a fish, os like the second movie should have been the 3rd and the second the 3rd get it?? nah...
nddlj 4 years ago
the third takes place before 1and 2 and therefore she still a mermaid(not fish)

Her face looks different because she is younger. Not bright red lipstick and the first movie was made in 89. So, it probably not the same people doing the drawings.

I watched this trailer on a HD tv and Ariel's eyebrows were BROWN lol. Well they didn't look good. Also she does look realllly different. :/ I hate sequels.

At first when I heard of The Little mermaid 3, I was like "Why do we need to know about her childhood? It'll just get boring". But then I heard it's about Ariel's mother, which is pretty interesting.
