Hey Moana Thread, let's hope these next 2 years just fly by.
Using Maui as the Demigod is cool. His legends are very Guile Hero esque, so this should be neat.

man I'm tired of all the monster rights warriors on Bouldr
Also, it's legit cool the script is by someone from that region.

. I've had enough of only Cro-Magons in movies.
A composer from Fiji will be doing the music, and Dwayne Johnson might be voicing Maui.
Both decisions I can get behind.

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.Dwayne Johnson? That's a choice I can get behind.
but can he sing...?

Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectPlease let this be true. The mental image of The Rock singing in a Disney musical gives me feelings of glee and Squee.
Any news yet whether this will be an outright` "Princess" film? I mean, it's a Disney movie that stars a female in a fantasy setting, so I guess regardless it will probably be counted as one anyway- but I mean definitively.

You are displaying abnormally high compulsions to over-analyze works of fiction and media. Diagnosis: TV Tropes Addiction.It's based on mythology, so I guess, it depends on how well it does...if it does well, they will most likely market it as such, if not, they will treat it like Hercules or Atlantis. And it depends on how much the end-product fits in the line-up....if it is very different in tone and/or Style (again, like Hercules or Atlantis), it will be another reason not to market it as Disney Princess movie.
It sounds like it will be one, but they will leave their options open. After all, the first movie which was officially made under the Disney Princess Label was "princess and the Frog".
There's an open casting call for the part of Moana.
They're doing a global (i.e. not just America) search and are looking for a 14-18 year old for the part. Strong singing voice is a 'must'.
So hey, I'm a shoo-in.
Also, Moana has a pot-bellied pig as her animal friend.

I know nerds are cool now..... but casting them in the leads of animated movies is getting stale.
