When I was younger, I thought 30 was old. Now that I'm 30 I still feel like a little kid :)

One of THE most asked questions in Disneyland? "What time is the 3:00 parade?"...

I really love that parade part of the movie.  Great music too.  That's one part of the film they really could have had fun with the 3D, with lots of confetti floating towards you.  But sadly, they didn't.

I wonder if that's a limitation of up converting as nothing really comes out of the screen and trying to map all those bits of paper would be prohibitive. I really like the ending as well, Natalie looks great in that white get up!

Rico

I don't think it's a limitation.  They obviously can post add elements in other parts of the film.  Just requires more digital compositing.  Someone makes a choice of what to add and where.  Yeah, I'm looking at you George Lucas.  :)

Bryancd

I still am off the opinion that they intentionally held back on the amount of coverting they did as much do with the cost as to the visual impact. I wouldn't be surprised if they fiddled around with a lot more of the film but it ended up looking poor and so they made a creative decision to not up convert it.

I wouldn't be surprised if they did the bare minimum work on this then sat back and watched the $ roll in. It's worked in the past. ;)
