Preview of "Bolt "and "Up" at San Diego Comic-Con

Lots of reports on the net from San Diego Comic-Con. There was a sneak peak of the remake Race to Witch Mountain as well as a surprise peak at Tron 2. But the main panels were for Bolt and Up.

Blue Sky Disney has a great report on Bolt and Up, and he seemed quite impressed with Bolt.

The scenes they showed of Bolt out in the real world having to confront the reality of who he is and what he needs to become are great and I believe this film will connect with audiences in a way Disney animation hasn't for a long time. It really does appear that good.

Coming Soon also really seemed to enjoy Bolt.

It was surprisingly funny, action packed, and utterly enthralling. As fun as it was, I was starting to wonder how any of the rest of the film with Bolt in the real world could possibly be interesting. Boy, was I wrong. We were treated to more scenes including one showing the other cats harassing Bolt. The cats were absolutely hilarious, but nothing compared to the hilarious hamster in a ball who aids Bolt.

Aint it Cool News has an interesting interview with director of UP Pete Docter. You get to hear about the influences of UP and get to know more about the main character Carl.


Although I was unimpressed by the trailer from Bolt, it seems that from the reports, many were impressed with the animation and story. I guess I'll wait and see.

Additionally the teaser trailer for Up is out, so check it out:
