  • 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.

  • 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.

  • This is one of the better Disney sequels! It's really funny, and way better than Little Mermaid 2!

  • the little mermaid 1 is the best and the rest of it not too good

  • I hope they do  4

  • 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.

  • didn't walt disney hate making sequels

    thank God they didn't ruin snow white LOL

  • Dude that part when Sebastian comes out totally threw me off.. LoL =)

  • what was that? 0_0

  • to everyone about The Little Mermaid 3.

    ive seen that there is a different type of LM3 and im just as confused as you all =P

  • hahaha thats so funny when Ariel comes and Sabastian faints!

  • With this movie is obvious Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid has been forgotten..

    Disney's version is almost timeless, we have 1,2,and 3.

  • In the version of Hans Christian Andersen Ariel is dead...

  • areare you talking about ariel or her mother being killed by the ship? because i've never seen that version.her mothers name is athena.

  • we just saw a ;ittle mermaid 3 trailer and it has nothing to do with the areil begining movie??? confused

  • This is not what happened in the movie....... everything was way different and Ariel looked different too.

  • Can somebody please download the Hebrew version of the Little Mermaid III? Thank you please!

  • how funnyyyy !

    my name is senora

    exact how sabastian

    it sings!

  • Hans Christian Anderson must be spinning in his grave

  • sex sex sexy nora

  • reason it's different from the final version is they prob revamped everything cause the trailer was 2 years ahead of the actual release of the film

  • Will they release this to cinemas once it's been released on DVD?

    Why do even the good sequels never get released at the cinema?? Bambi 2 was lovely and that should have made it theatrically!

  • את מדאברת עברית???

  • The final version is different.

  • booo

    stop disney!!

    make NEW classics..stop piggybacking, it's making the old stuff look bad :(

  • AH!!!THEY FORGOT MELODY!!

  • Well, seeing as it was before she was born I'm guessing it would be pretty amusing to see melody swimming around during the film lol!

    But, tara strong (actress who lays melody) does do the voices of two foariel's sister which I thought was really nice :)

  • I love that song from beetlejuice and the real singer who sang the song jump in the line is from Jamaica and I didn't even know that.

  • Yup. Written by Trinidad's Calypsonian Roaring Lion and perform by Harry Belafonte. What a classic!

  • Ew, Ariel's facial animation is awful.

    I love the dancing crabs, tho! :D

  • 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!!

  • Horrible -_-; and worst. Animation-wise this is another successful grand disaster, thx for nothing Disney Sequels.

  • Ew, The animation is bad. I totally prefer the original and the 2nd sequel, they're 10 times better than this.

  • when is this coming out or did it already can someone put it on youttube if you can??

  • 26th august 2008

  • really thx i might get it

  • i am gettin it i love the little mermaid but i didnt get 2 see all of the second 1

  • I LOVE LA SIRENITA 3 i want that DVD

  • suuuuper !!!!!!

  • 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'm pretty sure he said

    "what if sebastian".

  • ok. yea, i geuss your right... he did. now that i listened better i heard it.

  • From what I heard, it's somewhat like a Footloose crossover, but with the ban of music instead.

    I'm excited for this to come out, and I <33 this song ^_^

  • I didn't know there was a mermaid THREE! WOW!

  • LOVE it!!sweeetness/sweeeet!

  • haha i'm excited. although it sounds a little lame since the whole premise is that music is banned...

  • Oh It comes out at the end of the summer

  • Yeah, does anyone know when the thing is comin' out!

  • *LOL* Oh, this got me laughing real good. This song always makes me smile and dance along :) Lovely post DisneyPrincessIsrael!

  • When Is This Coming out ?

  • Love the music <3

    Thx =D

  • Ariel's lips aren't "red" anymore...

    remember in the first movie...it was so pretty..now they toned it down >:(

  • Ariel is younger in the movie because this is set in the beginning

  • i'm extremely confused. wht is this movie about?

  • It's back before the first movie and it explains about the past and makes the first movie a lot better to understand

  • k. thnx

  • Did nearby sailors hear music and the mother died somehow...

    If they merpeople had not played music at that time the mother wouldn't have been gone?

  • I think her mother trusted humans and loved music

    He hates the humans for killing her

    Hates music because it reminds him of her and brings grief

  • ~*That's what I think, too. I wouldn't be too surprised if the movie plot's like that.*~

  • 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?

  • yes. Thay also have a sneak peak on the Offical Little Mermaid 3 website. Its has lots of spoiler for the movie.

  • i alaways wondered what happened to her mother.

  • I always kind of knew that she was dead, but I didn't know how. But what nutjob would outlaw MUSIC?!?! Music is a VERY big part of EVERY culture!

  • It's the original Ariel, just a few years older. But you're right; she doesn't look like herself.

  • doesnt look herself shes a cartoon with new graphics

  • Don't you mean a few years younger?

  • Depends. Ariel the mermaid is younger in this movie, but Jodi Benson, the voice of Ariel since the first movie, is older now.

  • Her voice sounds a bit higher...maybe she used a but of her Thumbelina voice..?

  • Yeah, there IS a touch of Thumbelina in her voice now.

  • still noT AS GOOD AS THE ORINGAL

  • I can't wait for this movie!!! I love the little mermaid...Even now at 19 still can't get over disney! =]

  • I'm with ya.... 19 year old who loves The Little Mermaid, and I always have...

  • I love Ariel since I was 4 years.I really want this movies.I watch an anothers traier on official site and that seem so cool.

    Yes I'm 19 too ^^

  • lol 26 here =p and I'm a big Ariel fan ^^

  • im with you to i love her and im 21

  • I think with Disney, age doesn't matter... we never get over it! lol

  • when you guys have 3 yr. old little girls post a comment...i imagine your opinions will have changed.

  • 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....

    Sorry everyone, but I had to say it, I hate it.

  • 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.

  • I could´t agree more.

  • 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?

    I DONT KNOW WHAT DO ANY OFF YOU GUYS THINK?

  • she's made to look younger, I think. Makes sense.

  • is it me or is Ariel in love with Sebastian.

  • It's going to be reliesed in August ! OMG o-O

  • i so wanna see this movie.

  • 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.

  • omg same!

  • 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...

  • omg!... this is stupid... she doesn;t look like ariel... i know she is supposed to be ariel but comm on.. they are about to ruin a classic!

  • 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.....

  • she's suppose to look younger in this version since it's a prequel.

  • They were going to make a sequal with Melody turning 16 years old.

  • is she like... attracted to sebastion?

    LOL

  • Or at least that's what it said on DisneyChannel dot com.

  • This is The Little Mermaid III Ariel's Beginning Right? Because If it is This is coming out on Disney DVD on August 26th.

  • she don't even look like ariel !!!!

    this one and the second one SUCKS !!

  • 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.

  • i liked the second one too

  • 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

  • shes meant to be younger here though, isn't she?

  • It's like, a year or something begore the original... i think... so does that mean she was 15? (Remember she said she was 16 in the first movie)

    I actually liked the 2nd movie, but the first one was the best. I can't wait to see this... it looks interesting. Thanks for uploading!

  • 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!

  • this looks awful. they are ruining one of my fave disney movies.

  • 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.

  • lol ariel looks kind of ditzy... hmm..

  • Everybody should just be nice about it. Who knows.... it might be good! GO ARIEL!

  • This is HORRIBLE. Fucking Disney Money Grubbing Bastards.

  • The first movie is ALWAYS the best, just classic. The new voices and animation just destroyed it, in my opinion.

  • Yes I agree completely.

  • the 3rd movie is suppose to have all the original cast plus like 2 new ones.

  • yeah on is called swifty and the other is a villian called marina de something

  • 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...

  • I know i was just thinkin' that. i hate how they do "what's new scooby doo?" and that damn annoying new intro song.LOL

  • You are so right ..even though they claim it's so much better it's actually much much worse she looks so ..fake !

  • I've always thought that Ariel is beautiful, but geez, she looks like some idiot in this movies >__> I'm gonna buy this movie though...

  • Hell yea!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • pout bout it

  • 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.

  • what happened to her eyes? they like lighter i like her dark eyes.

  • bahahaha! omg her FACE!

  • i think its about her telling her daughter about her past or something like that

  • umm... Is little mermaid 3 a seuqel to little mermaid 1&2 or no? bcuz in little mermaid 2 she is a human and now she's a mermid again.

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

  • Ohh.... Thanks!

  • Can't wait till I get this on DVD in Feb 2008

  • 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.

  • Oh yes, Cinderella 3 is also a good film.

  • 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

  • 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!=)

  • This is ment to be before Ariel even met Eric she;s sposed to be a preteen/very early teens

  • ooooohhhh...haha...okay thanks!=)

  • 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.

  • what happens next??

  • 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...

  • 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.

  • Whoa what's wrong with Ariel's face lol

  • 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.

  • This looks more like an extended episode of the TV show to me. =/

  • wait in little mirmaid 2 she had a daughter and was a human!!! what happened????

  • this is set before both of the other movies

  • no, in the 2nd she turned fish also.

  • what happened to her eyes???

  • what happened to her eyes?

  • So exciting!!!!

  • if this is a prequel..she looks older

  • so their is a little mermaid 3 rite?

  • 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!

  • Whats the story line like??? Ariel looks like she's in love with sebastian!!!

  • u sick sick zoophiliac

  • Well if you look at 53 seconds she does!

  • yea she does lol

  • its her falling in love with MUSIC not sebastian

  • Oh good. Thanks for telling me!

  • omg.. das die es nie bei einem teil belassen können, nein machen wir noch 2 schlechte hinterher.

    der zweite war schrott und das wird das dritte auch sein. ;)
