Written by steet :
It's now official : the new project from Ron & John Musker (aka the directors behind Aladdin, The Princess & The Frog...) is an adaptation from one of the Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels, "Mort" !
There were already rumors that Disney wanted to do very different things from now on, and this project confirms it.
I have never read the books myself, but I have fond memories of the two video games that were released in 1995/1997, which are (to me) two of the best point'n click adventures games ever made. And I wouldn't mind at all Disney to borrow some of the art style from these games, considering it was very good!
I think it's a pretty good idea. These books have not been much exploited in films, and it has a potentially wide appeal, to kids, adults and families.
Of course, considering the film is still in very early developments, it won't be released before a few years - 2013 or 2014 at best. But now, at least, we know what to expect from the next major western traditional-animated film!
Looks like 2D animation is not "dead" yet! (ok, bad pun...)

They said that in 2004, but brought Princess & The Frog in 2009. They
haven't stopped, but it's very slow motion (one 2D film every 5 years
really isn't much...especially when compared to how many CGI films are
released each year) |

"These books have not been much exploited in films" Hum, not really. About a dozen of these books have been adaptated into films, they weren't release in theaters or not even on french television, but they exist in english  If this happens to be true, I only hope Disney won't "ruin"the initial story. (censored) , I can't wait for it ayway |

I researched 'Mort' for English last year so I vaguely know the story.
Terry Pratchett is a fantastic author [although you really have to
concentrate at times] and it's great that they are doing more with the
story. And it's even better that it's a 2D animation by Disney!  |
