I've never believed in doing sequels. I didn't want to waste the time I have doing a sequel; I'd rather be using that time doing something new and different.

I get a daily Walt Disney quote through igoogle, and I thought this one was interesting. How do you think Walt would feel about the horrible sequels that have been made of some of the animated films (Lion King 1 1/2, Cinderella 2 & 3, etc.)?
 
Thank you so much for posting this! I knew I had read him saying somesuch somewhere and couldn't recall where.

I was actually just talking about this yesterday!

Personally, unless they find the sequel good enough to stick in the theater (Toy Story 2 and such), you won't see me rushing out to get the DVD.
 
I can't help feel that the folks who run Disney these days just don't care what Walt would think. When you have limited imagination, you find a new way to use old material. If you make money with it, not much else matters.
 

I think they just made a corporate decision ...NOT to make anymore sequels!

This was news a few months ago!


I do think Toy Story 2 was great!:thumbsup2

I think movie sequels are near the bottom of the list of reasons Walt is rolling in his grave. (The words "Michael" and "Eisner" are at the top.)
 
I think that they should have followed Walts Dreams with this since he wanted new and fresh things out there and not sequals
 
I read that a couple of months ago while looking through his quotes. The only Disney sequel I have seen is Toy Story 2.

Sometimes I also wonder about the remakes of Parent Trap (there is one remake) and Freaky Friday (there are two remakes). Do you think that these would these fall into the same category??
 
I don't know how Walt would feel about remakes, since the only animated movies I can think of that were origional were Lilo and Stitch and Brother Bear (maybe The Black Cauldron). That includes all of the ones he made himself.
