Is it just me, or are all of them really badly designed? Ive seen a number of them over the years, and they all seem to be targeted squarely at kids A huge contrast to how the franchise is meant to appeal to all ages. I just want a nice calendar that doesn’t look completely kiddy, or like it was just slapped together by some random dude in Disney’s marketing department.
Looking through the art of TS3 book I just got for Christmas, there is tons of nice pieces, many of them rarely seen, that would be suitable for a calendar. I just hate it when they just grab a bunch of clip art and toss in some fun fonts and colors and call it day. Put some effort into it. I know its just a calendar but Im going to be seeing it a lot, so I’d rather not have to cringe every time I see it.
This topic is mainly for toy story, but it applies to all of Pixar’s movies really. I think the only one I remember liking was an incredibles one, it was more stylized and interesting.
Im especially bummed this year because for the past 3 years Ive been buying calendars for each season of Heroes, but now that its canceled Ive got nothing to use as a backup for 2011.
