I've seen someone play it and it looked horrible. If I would play that, I would try to finish as fast as possible so I wouldn't further waste my time. Wait, I wouldn't even play it at all.

Yes, I've played... 10 Mario platformers. And then I started Mario Galaxy 2.
Same character, same enemies, same story elements. But the gameplay... wow, unlike anything I've ever played before. It continues to amaze me.
Even the 2D New Super Mario Bros Wii is great because the level design is practically perfect. There isn't a dull or annoying part to be found in that game.
Now when I look at that Epic Mickey game (are they going to keep the working title?), I see a platformer exactly like Mario games. But without the perfection and with an added gimmick. From what they've shown, the paint/erase function looks more annoying than fun.
But I guess we'll wait and see. It might turn out to be a decent game that a lot of ignorant parents will buy for their kids.
