will not watch, and I don't think it will appeal to new younger viewers because the world is a very different place. I predict failure.

The IMDB ratings are pretty accurate, I've found.

You can't fake nostalgia.

From the preview you linked to I'd say other than Rocky the voices are pretty close. The main thing that worries me is that it looks so "busy." The original with it's relatively limited animation focused more on the dialog with its puns and double entendres so I hope it hasn't been dumbed down in favor of visual eye candy.
