FIRST LOOK
First Look: Disney & Marvel's First Animated Feature Film 'Big Hero 6'

Ever since getting a first look at San Fransokyo, we've been waiting to see more of Walt Disney Animation and Marvel's first animated big screen collaboration Big Hero 6. With the release of the first trailer coming on Thursday, the first images from the film have finally arrived, giving us a first look at the young robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada and his best friend, a robot named Baymax. So far we only know that T.J. Miller, Maya Rudolph and Jamie Chung are providing voices, so hopefully the first trailer will reveal the rest of the cast. Either way, seeing the first animated Marvel comic adaptation on the big screen has us excited.
Here's the first photos from Don Hall & Chris Williams' Big Hero 6 straight from Disney:
Big Hero 6 is co-directed by Don Hall (Winnie the Pooh) and Chris Williams (Bolt) with a script that Jordan Roberts (3,2,1…Frankie Go Boom) co-wrote with the former. Based on the comic book series of the same name, the film marks the first collaboration between Walt Disney Animation Studios and Marvel. The story follows brilliant robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada, who finds himself in the grips of a criminal plot that threatens to destroy the fast-paced, high-tech city of San Fransokyo. With the help of his closest companion—a robot named Baymax—Hiro joins forces with a reluctant team of first-time crime fighters on a mission to save their city. Disney releases the animated film everywhere this fall on November 7th.

i havent seen home on the range, i have seen the great disney movies like lion king, toy story, walle, beauty and beast. i agree that disney movies have great giggle factor, something like lion king is both moving and a lot of comedy. i have grown up watching disney greats so cant wait to see more.

Awe man I thought you finally made a post without the word giggle and then you replied to your own comment and fucked that up.

I get the feeling this would be better as a live-action film...

Nah.... it's too ridiculous, even as a Marvel movie it'd have a LOT of suspension of disbelief needed. Also many people might consider the characterizations more than a bit racist and cartoons can get away with that...

I'm not familiar with the comic, but what would be considered racist?

the character names are a bit on the "clearly written by a white guy who doesn't know anything about asians" side of things... Things like Go Go Tomago... Tomago is that Japanese fried egg style sushi. or Wasabi-no-Ginger is another character or Fred... who the fuck is named Fred? Honestly Fred is cool as fuck and I hope he's in the movie.

I totally agree, and on paper it works, but the moment you have a Japanese guy running around with the name Wasabi-No-Ginger talking with a broken accent and using cooking tools to fight aliens or robots or whatever it starts to come off as a bit uncomfortable...
