10 new SharkTale Clips

[agreenster]

Those were pretty funny! Some pretty witty scenes throughout--

In the Katie Current clip, the sushi gag was very funny.

This is better than I expected! Good for them!

But don't watch the "Whale Wash Party" clip if you don't want to see the end of the movie.... :rolleyes:

[SheepFactory]

the sushi gag was the funniest of all clips :D

[JeroenDStout]

Oh marvelous... this rocks!

[My Fault]

The sushi joke was really funny but some of the other jokes were lame.... even lamer then Shrek humor. Shellphones? Katie Current? Those are funny??? Ugh

The animation was realllly nice. I especially liked Lenny. And as much as I feel that Will Smith is an affront to humanity the animation on him was fantastic!

[the sparky]

looks good to me. A lot of puns, but good.

Maybe my sense of humor is different than the most, because i didn't find many funny scenes, not compared to Nemo. And most of the dialogs and character acting seem boring to me. I hope they are holding the best scenes of the movie away from the public. Oh, and something else. Their approach to fish is so closely parallel to humans that you are wondering why the hell did they do a fish movie in the first place.
I'm sorry to be skeptic about the whole thing. PDI hasn't won my heart yet... :shrug:

ahhhh! :D can't wait cant wait!!! honestly, when I first saw the concept art, I was like.. oh no!! but the clips and trailers really changed my mind!!! Which one should I see in theaters, sharktale of the incredibles? :P just kiddin...

[Hazdaz]

Ugh. That is either going to be really stoooopid, or very funny - I don't think it will fall anywhere in-between.

Right now, it looks like there are WAY too many dumb cliches/puns to be even remotely funny.

When Will Smith (in any of his movies) goes into his ghetto/gangster talk, all I wanna do is puke.

BUT, I will say that visually, the movie is beautiful.

[the sparky]

I don't remember what people were saying here before Shrek came out, but everyone I talked to was like "the trailers look kinda dumb" but look what happened there...

I'm definetly optimistic.

[tevih]

Yea cmon!! I mean: "How could you LIE to me?!" "Hey don't take it personally - I lied to EVERYBODY!!" LOL!!! i'm lookin forward :p

[MattEveritt]

For me it seems to lack something. Some kind of spark. I found myself losing interest.

ah well. You can't win em all.

'Shark' rips into Oz B.O.

'Tale' has happy ending

By DON GROVES


The gamble of releasing "Shark Tale" Down Under before its domestic preem
looks like it's paying off for DreamWorks and UIP.

The toon rang up $392,000 on 270 locations Thursday in Australia, 56% bigger
than the opening day of the original "Shrek" (although below "Finding
Nemo"). That's in addition to $535,000 that the pic earned Monday-Wednesday
from previews at 92 screens in Queensland and Victoria.

"Shark" netted $120,000 on 52 locations Thursday in New Zealand, double the
first day of "Shrek" and 60% up on "Nemo."

"Those are great numbers," UIP prexy Andrew Cripps said Thursday.

DreamWorks agreed to release the pic in Oz and New Zealand before its U.S.
launch Oct. 1 to take advantage of school vacations in both countries.

Also, Cripps said DreamWorks' Jeffrey Katzenberg was encouraged by the smash
success of "Shrek 2" in Australia. Pic has amassed $35.2 million to rank as
Oz's second-highest grosser of all time, behind "Titanic."

"Shark Tale" was heavily promoted on the Nine network's breakfast "Today"
show as co-host Tracy Grimshaw voiced one of the characters, a newscaster
named Katie Current, in the Oz version.

UIP is projecting a four-day Aussie haul of $2.1 million to $2.8 million.

The distrib is releasing the pic in October in most of the world. Exceptions
include Italy, where it's due in February, and Japan, in March. As "Shrek 2"
is still active in Scandinavia, the fish tale will go out in those
territories at Christmas.
