4 Minutes of Bolt Proves That Michael Bay Could Do Cartoons

Disney's Bolt

Apple has released a set of clips from the upcoming Disney Animation Studios adventure Bolt, including a four minute chunk of the film’s opening sequence. The clip features the John Travolta-voiced dog named Bolt in his popular TV show where he plays a dog with superpowers. It also features his TV companion Penny, voiced by Miley Cyrus. As you will see below, the film starts out with a bang that could have Michael Bay’s trigger finger itching. It gives hope to Bay — should making movies with CGI robots not work out in the future, he could always turn to something that is completely computer generated. It could, as a matter of fact, be awesome.

Have a look at the four minute clip from Disney’s Bolt below.

Bolt hits theaters on November 21st. The clip can be viewed in high definition over at Apple.com.

    I would love to see this movie within a movie, never mind Bolt. Michael Bay, get cracking on this!
  • EHH
    It's Penny, not Peggy. Just saying.
  • Gray
    So much better than having a Pikachu...

    That scene where the helicopter comes out of nowhere (2:18 mark) reminds me of Vectorman
  • Bob Funn
    I really don't feel the need to associate all action with Michael Bay thanks very much.
  • Wait, Bad Boys II wasn't a cartoon?
  • Rohith
    Michael Bay is one the best directors :)

    I like all his movies .... especially Transformers and The Island

    i dont know...maybe its because this is a movie scene in the movie, but the characters didnt seem alive. u know whn u see a pixar film or an old disney 2d film, u forget its animated n feel for the characters. even in the trailers of bolt there was a stiffness which shouted its CG...puppets moving.
    pixar doesn't have that.
    but i'll only know for sure after watching the film.

    ps : similar concept to buzz isn't it?
