Different for Disney?

This clip is for the newest movie that is coming from the Disney studios, the Princess and the Frog. The clip seems to show this movie as being along side the movies of the past, and being apart of Disney's great tradition.

Whether that will happen remains to be seen. I wonder if this movie will get to hung up on trying to be different, or is it trying to just be the same. It seems that Disney wants to play it safe by presenting a storyline similar to those movies of the past, the only thing this time is that the skin color of the main characters have changed. I think this is an important change for Disney, who never seems to have a main leading character that is black. They have used indians with Pocahontas, and chinese with Mulan, so it seems only natural that they would expand their cultural representations.

The movie looks like it will be similar to the link I posted earlier, from the Fractured fairy tales of Rocky and Bullwinkle. I think this shows Disney's attempt to get further away from what it's central topic, yet still maintain what it is. This is done by playing with the orginial storyline, yet still having the same elements that make this movie a Disney Movie.

I am pretty sure that this movie will be a commerical success, but will it break new grounds in the Disney world, or just end up being something it always has been?
