I thought that Nita's transformation, particularly where she's raised up into the sky towards the image of the bear and we see her silhouette against the Northern Lights, that that shot looked almost exactly like the scene from The Little Mermaid where Ariel is silhouetted against the brightly-colored seawater just before she turns from a mermaid to a human.
BTW, I thought Kenai's transformation into a bear in the first movie was much better. I liked this movie, but I was hoping to see more reference to Sitka, like how they would have an eagle appear every once in a while to show he was watching over Kenai. I'd have liked to have seen a conversation between Sitka and Kenai, like the one between Simba and Mufasa in The Lion King where Mufasa gives Simba a sense of direction. Then again, Sitka's my favorite character from Brother Bear, so I'm a bit biased.
Nevermore!
