Spector explains why Epic Mickey 2 is a musical

"Easy. I love musicals! I run the studio. My mom started dragging me to Broadway musicals when I was about five. I saw Camelot with the original cast. I saw Oliver with Davy Jones as the Artful Dodger. I've been going to musicals all my life. I love them." - Warren Spector

I thought i would hate musicals (like broadway musicals) but i saw Mary Poppins and i was really impressed. As long as I don't have to dance in this game i'm okay with it.

(especially if they're not a fan of them)

The game being a musical is fine to me as it gives off more Disney-like vibes.

You know how many Disney songs from movies and whatnot that I have stuck in my head over the years because of them? Too many to name.

Disney + Musical - Preteen crap = Awesome.

Looking forward to this!

Mostly, I'd be worried that he'd go to the trouble of labeling it 'a musical', and it ends up being just FMV or layered music tracks, and nothing else. If it was a matter of making an INTERACTIVE musical that you participate in and do unique stuff in that changes how it plays out depending on what you do.... that'd be pretty awesome. But if it's just like 'yeah it's a musical' and it's just fluff played over top of the same game as before, then whatever... don't care.

I love musicals so this sounds great. Hope the rest of the game lives up to its premise though (unlike in its predecessor).

This could go badly. Musicals can become really tedious if the music isn't good enough.

Well that is a new idea for a game that i never heard of before?
But how do you make a game better yet play a game as a musical???
This could be interesting.

Ah, Oliver. That was a fun show.

I'm really interested in seeing the concept work, I just hope the music is actually good.

Remember that this games comes to the PS3 and Xbox 360!


Anyway.... Have only been to one musical in my life and that was "We Will Rock You" . You know the Queen musical. Was actually pretty cool! But I still want to see more f this game in action first...
