    I always love the classics.

    Why modernize a classic, it speaks for itself. I think they should write their own classics and leave the Cinderella alone. It's not going to be Cinderella to those of us who saw the original; just somebody else's idea of how it should be today and personally, who cares how it should be today. It was made yesterday and very well.

    my favorite princess is Princess Leia from Star Wars. She was strong and very beautiful.

    I think the movie is going to be gorgeous, filled with amazing imagery. I can't wait to see what Disney has done with it! I'm a Disney freak, so I'm all for it! All of the 'fairy tales' we know are a very far cry from what they originally were, so there is no harm in updating and adding a fun new twist on an already wonderful story. It can only make it even more enthralling, especially for children now, who are bombarded by violent imagery and sexual content on a daily basis. I'll definitely be taking my daughter to see this. We both will be enjoying it immensely.

    I think that there has been enough updates to Cinderella. (Check out: Cinderella Story, Another Cinderella Story, A Cinderella Story: Once Upon A Song).

    Saw the preview for this new version and based on that I am hoping to see it.

    I like the classic story. As long as they don't change the story, I think they'll be fine. But, I have no interest in seeing it.

    I think its good to "remake" an original with a different perspective! The kids nowadays can relate better to a "newer" version of Cinderella!

    Cinderella is a classic story yet by modernizing it the new generation will enjoy it.
