That’s. Awesome. : ) Yeah, I wish the American media machine didn’t market as they do. But perhaps if it gets more people into theater seats than otherwise would come it’s a good thing. I do, however, have a problem with it when they change narrators or alter the film itself to make it more “palatable” to American audeinces. Hopefully their stylistic “upgrades” will be limited to the trailer. And subtitles please! It’s not like Perrin films have that much talking . . .

How awful. While it is commendable that Disney recognizes talent from other countries and tries to give it publicity in this country, it is just awful that they have to repackage it like they do, first with “Planet Earth” (replacing Attenborough was just wrong) and now this. I actually have seen this trailer in theaters and had no idea it was Perrin, because of course, half the trailer was about Disney himself.

I am so glad I backtracked. Can’t wait to see this new movie. Thanks so much for the heads up. Microcosmos and Winged Migration are true works of art. Perrin is this generation’s Cousteau.

P.S. 10 years ago I had an all girl Microcosmos party and the snail love scene sparked shrieks and great conversation! My favorite is the dung beetle though.

It’s going on the top of my list for Daily Things to Read.

Good luck!

Waiting for release in Poland. Many thanks for posting. I didn’t know they’re making another movie.
