How cute, reminds me of me growing up and all my trips to Disneyland.

Short, but very very heartwarming

One of the best commercials I've seen in a long time. Great job to the people at Madhouse behind this.

I'm kind of surprised they went the anime route with this. I thought that the japanese public like real world ads the same if not more than anime ads. Do you think they are trying to aim towards the anime niche? Or do you guys think that Disney is trying to get the Japanese to see themselves as more "western" through the art on anime & through coming to their parks?

Why oh why can we NOT show the dude's face, Japan? Seriously, this is an ad for DISNEY that features a full circle, FAMILY moment. Criminey. Rolling Eyes

I think the reason is the same as why you never see the guys face in eroge; imagination. Meaning that girls can imagine their ideal guy and guys can think about the girl in the video being their ideal women.

This has been used for a while now in games, anime, etc.
