Awesome poster. I almost didn't notice the monster outline on the leaves.

I love how Eeyore is just looking out at us like, "here we go."
 
Someone needs to slip Eeyore a couple anti-depressants.

The Ballad of Nessie will open this Spring in theaters in select international markets and will play in front of Winnie the Pooh, which opens July 15th.

Official Synopsis
Set in the “bonny blue highlands” of Scotland, “The Ballad of Nessie” is a whimsical and colorful tall tale about the friendly Loch Ness monster, Nessie, and how she and her best friend MacQuack the rubber duck came to live in the moor they now call home. Setting the adventure into motion is a greedy land developer named MacFroogle, who decides to build a mini-golf empire on top of Nessie’s home.

Directed by the Emmy® Award-winning team of Stevie Wermers-Skelton and Kevin Deters (“Prep & Landing,” and the 2007 Goofy short “How to Hook Up Your Home Theater”), “The Ballad of Nessie” is animated in classic Disney hand-drawn style. Written by Wermers-Skelton, Deters and Regina Conroy, the film is produced by Dorothy McKim and Tamara Boutcher, and features a musical score by Oscar®-winning composer Michael Giacchino (“Ratatouille,” “Up”). Animation on “Nessie” was supervised by five of Disney’s top talents: Andreas Deja, Mark Henn, Randy Haycock, Dale Baer and Ruben A. Aquino. Scottish comedian Billy Connolly narrates the film.

I like the hand drawn look that the short has. Hopefully I get to see this when I watch Winnie the Pooh.

New clip from the film. That's the classic **** right there.
 
I wish that the runtime is a bit longer but I'm still looking forward to this.
 
****, they can squeeze like 25 showings a day into that.
 
And considering their target audience, that runtime is probably perfect.
 
Hey, Disney.... promoting this might not be a bad idea. :o
 
I thought it was coming out the 29th. You mean to tell me I have to wait three more weeks? What's happened to this country?
 
Wait, the same day as Harry Potter?


Yeah, I expect this won't do much at the box office.
